God Krishna, who can it be? How many?

Defence in new keys

It is often said that history repeats itself because we don't learn its lessons. Some reappear in new keys, maybe metamorphosed. Others may be lamed.
      Lots of heart-warming, intriguing stories recapitulate major lessons and jest as well. Like that.
      Lots of base masters love to tell humble-yourself stories that serve masters, not mice and married men. What about them?
      At long last it had better stand out to nearly anyone: "I cant' be the friend of one who lames my family and other assets. Who can it be?"
      There is a good chance you can't find it out alone.


Great Christian-helping giant, great blunder?

There is a Ramayana series of tales with linked insider stuff where Rama illustrates spiritual giant (spiritual) awakening deep inside. The ancient work Yoga Vasishta makes that connection.
     

There is many a mistake made on purpose (American proverb)
Likewise, there is insider material centred around Krishna. Various traits of his serve figuratively. They and other Krishna specifics are used to inform and entertain, in part figuratively, and in part they illustrate giant (spiritual) unfoldment somehow. So Krishna playing the flute and herding the cattle is taken to signify sides of giant awakening, or spiritual unfoldment, if you like that expression better.
      In other cultures "there are giants and there are giants" - that is, they are not all alike. In ancient Greek stories, all giants are not good giants, and not jolly and good giants either. In the story of Odyssevs, some giants were fond of men and others - one-eyed ones - were fond of eating them.
      Bewitchment went into such plots, and traps too. By stealth and might the humans that succumbed were dwarfed or maimed and made use of and killed. A question is whether such intriguing sides of giants of old have anything to do with nightmares -
       Giants wield magic - in part Indian sources speak of white magic and black magic, and Norse gods and servants used "grey" magic too. Many sorts of magic may be fostered and dealt with among Tibetans -
      It is much as with snake bites. Some don't poison us at all; others do it more or less mildly, hopefully; and others can work for our harm and be deadly. In addition there are other snakes that choke and crush us to death instead of poisoning us.
  • We should beware of oversimplificated outlooks. They might sustain us if we learn they are not the only things to say in a matter, and that we have better things to do than getting cramped on top of them.

Fat sorrow

Fat sorrow is better than lean sorrow (It is better to be rich and unhappy than poor and unhappy), says the British proverb. [Dp 248]
Likewise: great partying is seldom said to be a way to gianthood or very great works, but we allow for exceptions. Helpful humour often lets us in on exceptions that may hit one mark or another, to make us smarter in the end, hopefully.
      Good stories of Krishna and many of "his" teachings in the Bhagavad Gita should not confound us a lot. Maybe you should concoct your own choice titbits from it, and adjust your living to them. It could pay.
      We often think Indians formed and selected that way, so that what survives reflects a predominant, former mentality for most part, and it may not be as freakish as seems to many of us Westerners nowadays. But it may not fit in nicely where you are, all the same. Anyway, the way is open to select and makes ense of selections, and to make the best out of themt. What that is, may differ in each case. We are not all alike, nor are our over-arching circumstances.
  • The acts enjoined by the scriptures of India, always begin with "Om" (Aum). Jesus says something similar in front of many of his verdicts. It is "Amen, amen", translated into "Verily, truly, in truth" and so on.

Not taken in - free to investigate things

In some Indian scriptures we find a difference between the texts proper and their interpretations. Whereas some texts seem stupid on the surface, the interpretations and comments seek to change that impression . . . In some places things are understood metaphorically, and so on. Note the method: If you get away with it, maybe the fit thing to do is to read the text in question metaphorically - to avoid severe problems. So long as we are not taken in by fancy this could work to our benefit.
One melody on this archive section is about making spiritual progress. It is not one of being turned into Farm Cattle to be man-handled.
The Krishna of Indian poems has much good to say about himself. In addition to utterances in Bhagavad-gita there is a larger song, Uddhava Gita in the Srimad Bhagavatam, where he gives vent to thinking. In Aldous Huxley's mind that gita is almost as expressive as the Bhagavad-gita. He is quoted to that in The Wisdom of God, which gives many glances into ancient Hindu thinking with Krishna on top. [Sl]
      It often helps to get professional and straight in handling all heart matters (affairs of the heart). The often marring alternative may be to be made use of.

 We should not testify in public to our own loss if we can avoid it. There are better ways than that.


Don't be a thief of trust and belief

Adaptation problems can give rise to still more adaptation problems, and some may get worse. India and Pakistan are having that sort of links. Among devout Hindus it often appears great to have esteem as an embodiment of Vishnu, partly or wholly, and so on, because things are presented in that way inside that culture, on top of a very long Krishna-hailing tradition. But in fundamentalist circles in the United States it may be the other way round. What then? Trouble is had, and more trouble. Adaptation problems are much likely for some.
      Up north we think fairness should rule: If you stand up as one more Krishna in India, it shouldn't be hidden if you spread a world-wide enterprise (SRF) in the name of Jesus Christ elsewhere. To put matters sharply:
      "The master can't promote Krishna and several Yogi-Christs in the name of original Christianity as taught by Jesus Christ?" [see Pa 499] and "You can't promote religious soap opera doctrine in the name of science either."
      Those small-looking points had better be given more weight, or else there is the risk of huge bramble bushes (infiltration lore) taking over in a garden or three, if not thistles: the latter may put an end to your life or good fare. You might have liked pear trees to thrive inside it instead. Better admit it: Lack of sound fairness is much likely to breed more problems. Some can be hard problems. Many can be taken down from okay self-management and self-assertiveness in rather subtle ways. Some may go crazy. Others might kill others and themselves.

  We should prevent hearsay-rooted trust and bulwark better against lots of harmful doctrine. Warm, entertaining and warning stories may help in some settings, but not all of them.


""Krishna did! How wise!" below is not intended for much else than entertainment and warning humour:
Be a giant master yourself -
marked by rotten deceit,
allowing family members
to kill each other.

You too can trick others utterly cold,
set up ruses and messages to batter common sense
love-play to a rotten heart's delight -
at last the evil one gets his harem:
[Emboldening wit may clarify a lot].

Buuu

It appears that Yogananda thwarted jolly good living in the name of Buddy Christ.
To stay on the safe side
some need to live -
And we need to go after good and healthy outlets. It could be good to be spoon-fed in the art of treasured mastery of living. And let's muster some common sense by the pinpointing: "Lots of misters and masters don't like you, or why else do they tell untruths?
      Liars don't like associates, no matter how dear they pretend they are.
      A Maharaja - great raja, or great king might be just as bad an omen as considering Jesus a mighty king on earth. Refuse to be unhinged. Training: [LINK]
      In severe times, people lift their eyes to the sky and become wistful - long for romantic gods to set their hopes in - Is god Krishna a helper fit for many romantic head-shavers?

  Lots of Indian minds are watered by romantic synergy-ideals.


What is called a good story suits the mentality of those who look up to it, after all

Mahavatar Babaji is presented as Krishna by many followers of Yogananda - and Krishna, is he there to help? It would be sagacity to expect the worst; and be nicely forewarned-forearmed and thus bulwark and prepare so that nasty things won't happen or are lessened in extent and duration and so on. That is much to live out! The alternative to it may well be getting amassed troubles and problems and enemies, in the end to realise, perhaps, that it is "too much to live".
      The idol Krishna is of a double nature, yet it is all a game, a carefully built Indian farce, if Paramahansa Yogananda saw the light when he said the whole universe (and all in it) are illusory, not real - himself included [!]. On top of that, maybe giants that come in groups and call each other Krishnas, masters and hardly butchers, are not wholly bad after all ... I have to admit that, and yet -
      When primitive and stubborn Jews said together, "Give us a king to lead us," it made God [I Am] sad. He told Samuel the judge:
      "Well, well, they have rejected me - warn them:
      "This is what the soap opera highest or "King Kong" over you might do:
      He'll take your sons and take your daughters to be perfumers. He'll take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to attendants. You yourselves will become his slaves.
      When that day comes, you'll cry out for relief from the king, and the Lord won't answer - much as in America today."
      This said, the Jews refused to listen.
      A long time after being kidnapped, Babaji is recognised and often said to be a king, Maharaja - great raja, or great king.
      So choose a good life if you can. - See Deuteronomy 30:15-19.


Krishna is held to be one of the body descensions of the Indian god Vishnu. Another was a good boar.

Naïve lick-spittles may cunningly use Krishna as a veneration object - instead of a role model to emulate by steps and stages. Look to Krishna; he is in part much different from a good guy. In the Mahabharata he admits that he was the infiltrative cause of a disastrous war - it was manipulated into being by him. tao reached      In these waters we are in, it hardly pays to ask "Who's the big, bad wolf - clever at puffing and breathing?"
      It is not much to kick your own legs so that you fall on a slippery terrain, at times helped by the outré poem Bhagavad Gita. (Cf. Bag 10:31, 34)


Let's beware of the great fog: Fog is a metaphor denoting a lot confusion, like the British "We are all at sea (disoriented)". This is a fog warning: A motherless boy may later turn into a motherlike helper, in the end to mess up things considerably. But if you don't like unsound boasting in the first place, maybe you are not meant to become the victim of the phoney helper in the first place! It is well to remember enigmatic Laozi:
The best rulers of old had fine natures, mysterious, too deep,
they could not be understood. (Hymn 15)

Of the best the people hardly ever know they exist;
The next best they flock to and praise for nothing.
The next they shrink from (etc.). (Hymn 17) [Ref.]


An ungodly turn laid bare

If you want to get better, maybe you should get more discreet. Feel free to be brilliant, for it can help a good art of living on and up.
      If you are stuck in a bad bargain under some bullying frogs that appear to swindle, try to fit in elsewhere first. If that is not possible, go for turning some tables if you don't end up a crook yourself for the sake of standing up as a bulldog - such a topdog [Cf. Fuf 229]
      Perhaps there is a lesson to learn in St. Paul's great:
      "Do your best to present yourself ... as one approved, a workman who doesn't need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. [2 Timothy 2:15-6]
      And suave verbiage from idolatry bringers has to be counted much worse. All in all, don't lend ear to an idolator and his suggestions. They may be nearly good a lot of time, and the long-range effects of not hitting the marks full well may aggravate conditions little by little. The only seemingly Christian counsel is to be ousted in a calm way, if that can be done.
      Here is in part (a facet of) how an alarmingly false Christian may forge ahead - and we suggest you reverse that tube-glide downwards away from integrity and the arms of God - and refrain from such as notorious killing of boys and girls. Thus, read the following is a warning, not an excuse:
  1. Keep your cheating artistry secret to your victims for ages. Mess up their minds and homes.
  2. Hide gospel-linked, best Persian sources from Zoroasther. He denounced all devas as evil beings, writes Encyclopedia Britannica (see "daeva"). And make victims ignore the Bible's warning against looming kings to stand up as one of the "Lacklands".
  3. Keep up much aided by infiltrative jargon, or the incorporated deep drives suggested by them. Yogananda did.

If the fox comes along and says he's Lord Krisha, which Krishna?

No, there is no perfect harmony between the teachings of Jesus and Paramahansa Yogananda, even though Yogananda say it is. Let this indicate there may arise problems that are brought on by infiltrators. Further consider:
      Evidence is thin. However, if some parts of a long list of descriptors mean "stay away if you love life", you might shoo the rest of them and be right about that. For it behoves a man to take care in time. The idea here is Better safe than sorry. That is a deep principle.

Now we are suspicious, arent' we?

An unhappy childhood and discordant life may want people to appear as something else, even as somebody else. Have you considered how some persons in mental asylums posed as Napoleon Bonaparte earlier, when it was fancied?
      Learn to suspect - a little suspicion in time may save us an awful lot of troubles. It is possible to suspect and be very polite at the same time. Accordingly, reveal next to nothing of what you suspect as long as trustworthy proof is missing.
      By all means, in order to cope well we need to understand much. It is most often handy.
      Now, look to the troubled childhood of Jesus. He surely had problems with fitting in later. In fact, he did not fit in. Nor did Bhagavan Krishna have a very good childhood. First, he was a changeling of a deviant dark complexion. Many wanted to kill him, especially his uncle, King Kamsa. This the literature tells us.
      In our view, very pressed persons more easily become members of beg-and-flaunt circles, apparently seeking relief in more authoritarian frames than common people. And in the middle of much big-mouthed bragging it is at times possible to hear a note called "dwindled self-esteem manifests by strong words - at times. It can happen". Selfhelp.
      It could be good to do some sound self-inspection before taking to the sword in vain, at the very least. An Internet offering into self-understanding is still given here. There are many other sites along psychoanalytic lines.

Too much bragging can't compare with birds twittering and chirping around us. Why? Well, there may be many reasons. Communication of birds is no simple subject. In a book about Zen and other facets of Far Eastern culture, Aage Marcus retells a Zen story about how a teacher was about to sermonise when a bird suddenly started to sing in front of the people who were there.
      When it finished, the Zen teacher said: "The sermon is over."
      This little story is found deep in a non-defective Danish book, Den blaa dragen. [Ded 93] (#1.2)

Krishnas


Play while you play, work while you work (American proverb)
Traditional yoga is more or less penance, tapas, whatever way you look at it. And penance is being stricter with yourself than many nannies. You think this is fun? Lahiri Baba declared that Babaji (the old father) is Krishna - but isn't he everybody? - and Lahiri also decrees, "I myself am Lord Krishna.". (Sayings 94 and 55)
When one transcends ... desires, ... he becomes ... Krishna himself. (Essence of saying 85)
The old father (Babaji) is Krishna. (Saying 94.)
I myself am Krishna. (Saying 55)
Among other things - many other things - Krishna says he is the Indian fable-monster Maraka, half dolphin, half crocodile. Well, well!
      Not all monsters are known to be friendly and helpful to a bleeding human out of his water. Expect no help from those who don't desire to help - it stands to reason. How to be sure may be barred, and if so, the next best is to attain to being cleverly unsure according to "When in doubt, win the trick." It is a good saying, and that is the main point for now.
      Our Krishna is in part the fooling body descent of Vishnu, (Bag 10;21) at times deceitful, Indian (Vaishnava) literature tells us. Speaking of the historical figure Krishna, there are three tiny notes in the vast and largely religious-philosophical Upanishad tradition, and further mentions in the epic poem Mahabharata, which has changed over the centuries [LINK], but which contains historically correct descriptions of a town held to be Krishna's capital in that poem.
      There is a reasonable chance Vaishnavist literature was designed to make others Vishnu followers, Vaishnavists, or confirm such a faith or focus among other Hindu faiths and focuses a long time ago in India. There is not so much talk of single individuals, hailing them as much autonomous, independent guys with their own, innate self-esteem and interests - and what if such high and treasured things can be taken, dwarfed, or plundered, by obscure traditions with their various moves and astounding and insensible decrees? What if?
      Like the cult figure Rama of the epic Ramayana, Krishna has (a) an esoteric significance for insiders, but (b) he's also a somebody of fiction. And finally, (c) he might have been somebody that actually lived. Evidence has surfaced.

Rama

  1. The poet's invention Rama: See Ramayana [Karb (easy version, good for childen and youngsters; Ra (fair)]
  2. The insider Rama, a figure that embodies advancement internally, a good book is Yoga Vasishta. I particularly recommend the version published by State University. [Yv; Su]
  3. The historical Rama is missing.

Krishna in literature

  1. Krishna of Indian literature: The Puranic work Srimad Bhagavatam is my main reference used. [Sh] Also, the long epic Mahabharata depicts him. Alternatives: [Aha (likeable, easy version); Mmw (heavy, boring, but complete in 12 volumes); Wa (Bhagavad Gita)]
  2. The insiders' Krishna is a symbol to some, perhaps also of herding expertise. In the West some Krishna movements that have been called cults.
  3. A historical figure called Krishna possibly existed! - as shown above. [So].
Now, Drs. van Buitenen and Dimmitt links us to the old Indian myths and fiction on figures such as Rama and Krishna. They have inspected the "Harivamsa" and favour the idea that Krishna has existed. [Cf. Chl]

The universal content


Marriage is a game best played by two winners (American proverb)
Look to the fruits, asked Jesus. Look to his fruits - he insisted they encompassed being hated and persecuted "by all". But that stage is now long gone and has to be passed by most of us. Christianity later rose in and through the Holy Ghost and all the apostles that rose to the occasion or new situations at hand, by that dwarfed major commands found in the Law. Even if Jesus had vouched for all of them. [Matthew 5;17-20]
      It is amusing, but we find no Christians around Jesus, no Christianity either. He sought out followers, had a following, and the term "Christian" entered only after his death and resurrection. There was hardly any Christianity as we have it, in the days of Jesus, only its forerunning deal. The seed has been sown and had succumbed. The new plant could be allowed to grow after the seed had died. [Cf. Acta 15]
      Wilfully to use "original Christianity" as facade, must not be called fit and fair, as it mars.

Late-comers rooted in inexperience may flounder or even worse

1    One thing that should not be overlooked by inexperienced beginners, is non-profit rooted, fair or very handy help for good beginners

Clever men go deeper than the surface, and often they remain on the surface as well, for the sake of common accommodations that count. But to insist foolhardy and superficially in dubious matters is not a way for us to behave. We have to know better than that. You might like to hear it from me.
      A half-boat could imply to be half a man: Many old symbols, tokens and facts are easily overlooked by inexperienced beginners. They can be taken in for the lack of that knowledge some time. ¤
      If you will look at the first martyrs, they were taken to the border of death and further, with no gurus to help them.


2    Some that have crossed dark, dim waters and foggy marshes, help others to do the same, Others drown later-comers and can be sleek.

basis explored The seed has been sown and died is the "original Christianity as taught by Jesus Christ". It is a dead thing we talk about. But on top of it, a fallen master could eat and drink your heart of goodwill. ¤
      The sun-god uses a boat over dark, dim waters in lots of ancient Egyptian paintings. The picture can represent your sense of independence and self-assertion needs help in dim waters. It is not easy for a convert to deal with unseen powers that war against God. So the early church established such as overseers to help beginners. John (Gold-mouth) Chrystostom became a famous one.


3    Speaking of the fruits of Jesus as a gardener, witticism helps.

yogagrabben IT HELPS to be in contact with a genuine helper and preserve your basic assets and bulwarked in many ways and "layers". A home is for that. Huge Norman mottes (fortified mounds) served it nicely earlier. Lately it has been made use of in a new key in urban settings to counteract traffic noise.
      Look to the fruits of Jesus, the first Christianity that dispensed with his yes to the Law of Moses, and the deal of Calvin. Novel tyranny could be much worse.
      Feel free to take to witticism if it helps.


Christian summary along with this

Below: tick tack toe scheming

If you can't use the stepwise schemata (scheme) for building purposes, take to a yarn instead. To spin a yarn is to tell an exaggerated or untrue story. You can often choose that. Most fairy tales live on thanks to it. Make it entertaining, then.
  1. BE ON the safe side to cope well. It is not a goof side. It helps to cope well; helps to become an expert backed up by nice thought from others.
          Otherwise - well, a lot good-natured people become victims and martyrs because they were once taken in - or parents of theirs. Some scars tend to remain, and nasty scripts tend to run in families till the spell-breaker appears and breaks the plots. [Cf. Hom]
  2. THere is absolutely no reason to look down on any beginner, or being a beginner. But good-natured beginners have to be bulwarked and at times defended, or they risk being run down or cheated. In the first church they fought very hard for beginners and against perverted teachings and found it necessary to have grown-up helpers (elders, presbyters) and overseers (later bishops). St. John Chrystostom, bishop of Byzantium was one.
  3. TAKE TO the best deal and try to stay as relaxed in that as you can. It often helps. Bulge well - ponder what it means and try to apply it if you can or when you can. And at times there is no way out.
Being refused by the majority of Jews and victimised by a set of sinister happenings guided Jesus to let his net be cast over gentiles. Relevant Calvinism is found inside the acronym "Tulip". There is a glow that is godly. The wise man lets himself be assisted by experts all along - also here. Are there any? Let there be an upsurge of those staunch individuals. ¤

Near the ending

To be literal-minded isn't bad, but St. Paul asks each of us to grow in grace and understand that it happens "the letter kills".
      "Let your conversation be always full of grace - know how to answer everyone." - See Colossians 4;6 (Excerpt).
An overseer is entrusted with God's work - must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught.
      There are many rebellious people, mere deceivers. They must be silenced. - Titus 1;7-12 (Excerpts
If we never learn to mobilise healthy doubt for our own benefit, there is a risk of succumbing to given dreams. We often have to interpret and judge plausible options - And the culinary art of handling such matters well, also includes fit guidelines for what to do next, on top of that. We do nothing very bad if we flatly and blandly select the plausible option that suits tender ones and make constant use of it. It is hardly unfair.

Liberated through nonsense or from it?

THE SECTION of Yogananda quotations and paraphrases is now placed here: Check.

A bully king wanted to strip naked an attractive woman who had five husbands. Krishna was present and swore to revenge it. As a result, the warrior caste was wiped out in a horrible war and everybody had reasons to sulk. Don't shoot sparrows with atomic bombs.

Much literature around Krishna may be called fiction. Allow a debate here.

Know the tree by its fruits if you don't understand its roots and over-all shape, leaves and all. You can compare deeds.

A good survey in advance can save a hundred thousand "Harrys".

When Yogananda mentions "essential unity", the ability to see for yourself (and not be taken in so easily) can be developed by good education and training. Go for that.

In the gospel of John Jesus says somewhere that only he who came down from heaven can get up there again. An interesting sideview - or? "None has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven, the Son of Man. The Son of Man must be lifted up". - [Cf. John 3:13-4]

Lifting up the son of man (called barnasha in Aramaic). Barnasha can have many meanings. One is "habit-living man". The son of God that Jesus talks of, looks like a god in his "Don't you know you are gods?"

It must be good to be informed that if you were not pre-selected or God-singled for anything in particular, Jesus says that you are a god, and as a god you are a god in The Image. Is anything bigger or better than that? A very successful god, maybe.

You may sound Christian without being recognised by Jesus who says he wants aligned doings too - it is to be reckoned with.

"How is it that there are very many that were not reminded against eating blood food all their childhood after baptism?"

"The world is nothing more than a cosmic dream — This life is a dream." [Ak 237, 240]

If the world's a dream, at least it is spaceous. So let your life be no cramped and hopeless dream. Get away from the teaching that the universe is illusory, for if it were, that teaching would be found inside that illusion, take part of its inherent nature of being unfounded - and there you have it: It can work well if things come down to something that looks normal enough, grossly stated.

"The Holy Ghost is energy (Yogananda)" - maybe the Holy Ghost dislikes the Yoganandic reductionism.

Yogananda calls his gurus almighty and all-knowing - one of them "a master in every way". [Ak 99] But, actually, you find no proofs of that.

Notes

[1] Good books by Dr. Eric Berne - eminent psychiatrist of North America - What do you say after you say hello? (Bantam) and "Games people play (Penguin) shouldn't be ignored when browsing other good TA books, such as the eminent Choosing success by Dorothy Jongeward and Philip Sayer. Dr. Berne's outlook most often help, in our opinion.
      [2] Kriyananda (J. Donald Walthers), originator of Ananda Church of Self-Realization and community - In the Greek epic, the Odyssey by Homer, the crew of Odyssey is turned into a herd of swine by "gambit magic" from the hands of Circe in the great work of art by Homer, the Odyssey.
      [3] (a) Rumble-Mumble Goosegg (Cf. the fairy tale "Strong John") is a quite alarming hulk, maybe a halfway titanic Dane or Norwegian - whatever. He loses respect for all authorities, both the king and Old Nick. There is a cosy folk tale about him around. (b) Markandeya is the hero of the Hindu book Markandeya Purana. It is a very old book. He lives very irregularly. The book portrays him as the best, above formalised wrong and right at times. This means, in other words, that to become hung up in given ethics can signify "I'm outsmarted".
      [4 etc.] Why live-out-ridicule the basic command: "Adam and Eve, multiply"? It is often far from the future farm hen's willy-nilly intent to live up to the historical task and truly honour her much too much caged parents in such a basic way.
