The Irrational of so called Rationalism BAP Life comes from life

Member of the Life comes from life

Introduction Dear Friend, this is an essential matter. I am a servitor of Srila Prabhupada and I wish to show you all the importance of consciousness as our only connection with the antimaterial dimension. Life comes from life

There are people who state that it is rational to not accept what cannot be seen. They justify all kinds of experiments on living beings, genes, cells, virus, etc. to prove that matter is the original cause, and they deny the existence of someone superior to them. Life comes from life

Let´s study this proposal If matter is the only cause there would be no law to follow. The laws of nature would be accidental and the only justification for action would be the whim that anyone of us may have. This is the justification of the materialists to enjoy with no superior consciousness, even if this gives suffering to other living beings. Life comes from life

Life is a marvelous thing that makes a small being like you and me become observers of the universe We draw conclusions from our own observations for our life I observe matter, matter does not observe me. Who is superior then? I produce, manipulate and use matter. Matter does not influence my free will. How can we be products of something inferior to us in quality? Life comes from life

Consciousness has many symptoms, necessities, instincts, dreams and ideas that are not limited to the existence of the body and the material mind To think, to wish, and to feel for example Love, affection, honesty, compassion are not functional elements to survive. The physical body is only a dress of our consciousness Life comes from life

While the body grows old, consciousness remains young Even old people are lustful There is no difference between the hunger of young, old, white, yellow, dog or elephant. Consciousness is different from the body and from its different stages or forms Whoever stops learning begins to grow old Take care Life comes from life

To say that matter is the cause of consciousness is the most contradictory dogma, or the top level of blind faith that may exist. Bhagavat Gita gives us important information about this subject. The secret to understand the Gita is: At least in theory you must accept that an eternal soul is responsible for all his actions and that the soul travels life after life, from one body to the other, in order to be able to understand the truth and real love. Life comes from life

Additionally, this information answers humanities greatest questions like: The reason for the apparent injustice and inequality The purpose of our existence. The answers for where we come from, to whom we owe our existence, and where we can go from here Life comes from life

The soul is the fundamental conscious principal He has it´s origin in the brightness of the soul of all creation. Endowed with a small amount of the characteristics as his supreme father, each soul has the free will and the potency to evolve and influence matter. The soul is invited to be reunited with the father in the transcendental world but has the option to explore the material world. There he wants to be independent and tries to substitute God himself or with other persons like his wife, children, idols etc. Life comes from life

Our apathy to surrender to the Lord creates a fascinating adventurous attempt to become a creator in this material world. Love is voluntary. Only by having a deep desire to attain love, it will become something tangible to reach God does not want to impose Himself on anyone, as no one can really impose his love on somebody else to learn what is right and what is wrong—that is how the path of responsibility begins Life comes from life

Science has been able to study the partial depth of some part of matter, but is completely ignorant about the soul Natural science completely ignores the possibility of a previous and subsequent state of consciousness after death Psychology, medicine, archeology etc. have theories based on mere speculation—matter as the cause of everything But even they admit that matter escapes out of their control or observation capacity. Quantum mechanics, the theory of relativity and the theory of the “super strings” are all based on the ideas of subtle influences on visible matter. Life comes from life

They don´t know where it begins nor where it ends but they claim to have some information about the middle. Thus they invent false conclusions and want to play as if they were the creator Arguing that sex, power and money are the only things of value, they made out of this world what you see now But is remarkable that not even with material success they are happy Life comes from life

The Real thing is consciousness. Avinasi tu tad viddhi Yena sarvam idam tatam Vinasam avyayasyasya Na kascit kartum arhati That which pervades the entire body you should know to be indestructible. No one is able to destroy that imperishable soul. Bhagavad Gita 2.17 Life comes from life

What is the best investment? Don´t forget. Whatever you don´t give away is what you loose some day Give your love Give your Knowledge Give your strength Everything belongs to the One who gave it to you (God) Only He keeps you forever Life comes from life

And the change of body is the possibility to escape from matter- to free yourself from the cycle of birth and death Dehino smin yatha dehe kaumaram yauvanam jara tatha dehantara-praptir dhiras tatra na muhyati (Gita 2.13) As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change. Life comes from life

The body is lent to you so that you can learn how to serve and love Vasamsi jirnani yatha vihaya navani grhnati naro parani tatha sarirani vihaya jirnany anyani samyati navani dehi Bhagavad Gita 2.22 As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones. Life comes from life

Discover your superior identity Visaya vinivartante niraharasya dehinah Rasa-varjam raso ‘py asya param drstva nivartate Bhagavad Gita 2.59 The embodied soul may be Restricted from sense Enjoyment, though the Taste for sense objects Remains. But, ceasing Such engagements by Experiencing a higher taste, He is fixed in consciousness. Life comes from life

divine son of a maidservant Get out of the unhealthy platform of judging other people based on their birth or appearance Vidya-vinaya-sampanne brahmane gavi hastini suni caiva sva-pake ca panditah sama darsinah (Gita 5.18) The humble sages, by firtue of true knowledge, see with equal vision a learned and gentle brahmana, a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog-eater (outcaste). Narada Muni divine son of a maidservant Life comes from life

Enjoy to know that everything is controlled by our only friend, our eternal guardian sarvasya caham hrdi sannivisto mattah smrtir jnanam apohanam ca vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyo vedanta-krd veda-vid eva caham Bhagavad Gita 15.15 I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness. By all the Vedas I am to be known; indeed I am the compiler of Vedanta, and I am the knower of the Vedas. Radha Gopinath Life comes from life
