The existence of Dvaraka is no more relevant to Krishna existing than
the existence of Atlanta is to Scarlett O'Hara existing.

It's only to be expected it looks like that in your unscientific,

Reasoning? with you? hahaha :) That'd be like explaining advanced
mathematics to a first grader. But here is some reasoning for someone
with a brain, who might be listening.

Anyone, regardless of his beliefs and convictions, can experience that
he is a constant or eternal observer of existence.

Krishna says:

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. (Bg. 2.13)

What Krishna is saying here, is that one's body changes all the time
from childhood, to youth, to old age. But the self or the I within,
remains constant. One's mind and intelligence change, sure. You are
are supposed to grow wiser with age. One's thoughts, feelings,
willpower, and convictions change as time progresses.

But it is the same I-feeling, who experience all these changes. It is
the same observer. The person stays the same despite the altercations
in matter.

That is the eternal soul. It is the same person, or the same soul who
sits in a child's body as the one who sits in the old man's body. The
person didn't change, in the sense that he is the same observer. His
thoughts and feelings and intelligence changed, but he remained the
same soul. In this way anyone can experience his own eternality.

It's a question of absorption - either one is absorped in matter,
which is in constant change. One is absorped in his thoughts,
feelings, and will. Or one is absorped in one's eternal self. That
means, one is absorped in observing one's thoughts, feelings, and
will. IOW one is absorped in his own consciousness.

That is a choice one has. And one's choice will be determined by the
way one is controlled by matter. When one's choice is motivated by the
desire to become FREE from matter, then one begins his spiritual
journey back home, back to Godhead.

Krishna says:

A person who is not disturbed by the incessant flow of desires - that
enter like rivers into the ocean, which is ever being filled but is
always still - can alone achieve peace, and not the man who strives to
satisfy such desires. (Bg 2.70)

A person who has given up all desires for sense gratification, who
lives free from desires, who has given up all sense of proprietorship
and is devoid of false ego - he alone can attain real peace. (Bg 2.71)

That is the way of the spiritual and godly life, after attaining which
a man is not bewildered. If one is thus situated even at the hour of
death, one can enter into the kingdom of God. (Bg 2.72)

These quotes show that great thinkers, philosophers and poets down
through history have been impressed and inspired by Bhagavad Gita,
making you look like the coarse, uneducated fool, you are :)

Prove to you? hahaha :) The last thing you want is proof of God. To
the discerning eye, the whole world is proof of God. Who but a
complete idiot would suggest that the world created itself out of a
bunch of chemicals? Of course, due to sheer envy, intellectually
crippled people like you, can't see the obvious, thus verifying the
Vedic Version, that the soul fell down from the spiritual world due to
envy of Krishna.

You are like someone looking at Mona Lisa:

---but, but no one made this painting, it made itself by accident.
Leonardo Davinci doesn't exist. wah, wah, prove to me Leonardo Davinci
exists.

Krishna says:

Now hear, O son of Prtha, how by practicing yoga in full consciousness
of Me, with mind attached to Me, you can know Me in full, free from
doubt. (Bg 7.1)

No, they don't. They're quotes from the Bhagavad-Gita itself, with a
brief explanation of one. Do you even read what you write, Jesper?

>making you look like the coarse, uneducated fool, you are :)

Considering that you just made one of your usual comical fuck-ups that
shows you weren't paying the slightest attention, you might want to
refrain from using that word against others, fool...

>>Prove your god exists

Yes. Can't do it, can you?

>The last thing you want is proof of God.

Oh stick it in your ear, Jesper. You know damned well that you can't
provide any, so you'll make every possible excuse for not doing so.
You're no different from any Fundamentalist Christian here in that
respect.

ROTFLMFAO! Jesper, seriously, where are you getting this from? Your
delusions that you are even intellectually adequate are quite
astounding, much less that you are capable of judging the intellectual
capacity of others. Even if you hadn't been brainwashed into Hare
Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong Land by your cult, you'd still face the twin
problems of being as dumb as a stump, and just as ignorant, that you
faced before you joined ISKCON.

It's religious bullshit not 'great thinkers'. A 'great thinker'
would never buy into a faith based cult simply because there is no
evidence to support it's claim.

You bought into the religious bullshit because you're weak and
afraid of death. That's nothing but your ego taking hold of your life.
You think you're so special you can't/shouldn't die.

You're really fucked up. Your reality is so myopic, so limited to
empirical information you can't see pass your 'holy' book, just like
the christians. You use tired, stale religious dogma to support your
lunacy. You have nothing fresh or even a new sheet of paper to offer,
just boring, repetitious, 'someone says'.

The reality of our day to day existence is exactly as if a god
doesn't exist.

Prove me wrong.

Posting a quote from Emerson after the fact doesn't change the fact
that you fucked up royally as usual, Jesper. Do you really think

Like you are thinking for yourself? hahaha :) You don't have so much
as a single original, independent thought, in that bird scull of
yours. If you didn't have TV, newpapers and magazines to tell you what
to think and believe, you'd be in deep shit...

Yes, actually. I know you find that shocking, since you gave it up
when you joined your cult, but you might try it once in a while. Of
course, that would also involve your recognizing that pretty much
everything your cult has told you about history and science is
preposterous nonsense that has no connection to the actual topics.
