It is good to know that the Bhaktivedanta Hospital gives all childhood vaccinations now.
It was made compulsory after a 5 year old Russian boy died from Diphtheria in 2017, a disease long ago eradicated from the West due to vaccinations.
The fact is, people are NOT entitled to believe and practice how they choose regarding vaccines, NOT in today's world.
That's how innocent people get killed.
There are rules we all MUST follow regarding the present Coronavirus that protects otherwise one is fined or jailed.
Vaccines MUST be compulsory to all, no one has the right to choose.
Best explained this way, children under one year old cannot get the Influenza or Whooping cough vaccine.
Now if those kids are put in a Kindergarten with older kids not vaccinate, then they can catch these diseases.
This happened in Australia and 4 babies died because the Kindergarten authorities allowed in children whose parents are anti-vaccination.
The law now is ALL children over one year old MUST be vaccinated so others there under one are protected.
THERE IS NO CHOICE AND NOR SHOULD THERE BE.
Even our ISKCON Gurukula at Murwillumbah have been warned they MUST have only vaccinated children in the school or be shut down and loose all funding from the Government.
These days in a Global society vaccinations are compulsory and if anti-vaccination parents refuse vaccinations for their kids have their kids taken way from them or jailed.
I agree with this because vaccinations save lives, look at deaths before 1950 from diseases wherevover 200 million died, and look at deaths since the 1960s where Millions have been saved due to vaccinations.
I recently studied the effect that Ayuravedic Brahmins used under British occupation in India in 1919 against the Spanish Influenza virus?
Sadly they had no cure even though they tried different methods from burning Cow dung, spreading Ganges water, putting Tulsi leaf on the sick, and chanting various mantas, still 22 million Indians died from Influenza.
What did work in late part of the year 1920, was a nationwide lock down.
The fact is most of the teaching of Lord Dhanvantari was lost thousands of years ago at the beginning of Kali-yuga and the potency nor qualified Brahmins exist anymore.
ISKCON is trying to revive this ancient science however, this will take a few generations to acquire the purity needed to again bring potency to Vedic teachings.
The History of the 1918/20 Spanish Influenza pandemic that killed 22 million Indians and another 60 million around the World proves this.
The Indian Government are certainly not turning to Ayuravedic methods to fight the Coronavirus, they are using lock down and trying to develope a vaccine.
The vaccine for the Spanish Influenza pandemic was first developed in 1938 and protected allied troops including many Indian soldiers during World War 2.
Presently vaccinations must be used until the teachings of Dhanvantari (Ayuravedic methods) are revived, maturely understood, then successfully practised.
Look at History, before 1955 (from 1900 to 1955) 300 million people died of various diseases because there was no vaccine!!
That is why the world Population back then was so low in the 1930s, just 1.8 billion people and the life expectancy was just 59 years old.
However, since 1960, due to now having vaccines for -
Cholera,
Small Pox,
Diphtheria,
Rubella,
The Plague,
Leprosy,
Tetanus,
Mumps
Polio,
Cervical cancer,
Hepatitis,
Hepatitis B
HIV,
Influenza,
Whooping cough,
Measels
And many more
The World population is nearly 8 billion!
And the life span in countries that today in 2020 is 84.
Vaccinations, penicillin (first used in 1942 publicly) and good hygiene, diet and education is the cause of a massive population explosion since 1960.
ISKCON is reviving an age old Vedic system started in 1970 by Srila Prabhupada when he returned to India with his American disciples known to the Indian media as the "Dancing white elephants".
When Prabhupada went back to India in 1970 with his "dancing white elephants", this marked the beginning of this Vedic REVIVAL and the beginning of a Golden Age in Kali-yuga.
This is important to understand, their are big changes coming to this terrible Kali-yuga inspired by the teachings of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu that will transform it for a short time (10,000 years)
However ISKCON is only just 50 years into this revival and spiritual rejuvenation meaning the movement is still young and in most cases in these early pioneering years, very immature.
Slowly we are developing farms, ahimsa Milk, etc all over the world.
But it is still early pioneering days, as a Movement ISKCON and Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Sankirtan Movement is very young.
In 1972 Prabhupada spoke in his room that this movement WILL bring in a Golden Age.
He said devotees in a few generations, will become very powerful Brahmins and even mystics, meaning their chanting mantras will have great potency.
Farming communities are an important part of this REVIVAL of Vedic Culture and Sanatam Dharma
Prabhupada told us this coming Gold Age will AGAIN revive the Vedic standard known in previous yugas like Dvarpara, and even Satya yuga!
This WILL happen with Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's poweful Sankirtan movement setting up in every major city and Town around the World, if ISKCON Members take his Books very seriously.
Can Vedic remedies cure the Coronavirus COVID-19?
To answer that, let's look at history, the best teacher is history.
Did homopathic or Ayuravedic medician and potions work against past major pandemics?
History teaches us that no, both methods never came even close to erradicating the Spanish Influenza in 1918/20s (100 years ago) ìn India.
Back then under British rule, Brahmins even burned Cow dung, spread Ganges water, put Tulsi leaves on the sick, chanted Dhanvantari mantras, and also the Hare Krishna mantra.
Brahmins told the Indian people with Influenza the "Vedas teach" that saying the name Dhanvantari will cure all diseases.
Well that certainly did not stop any virus!
Still 22 million Indians died at this time from Influenza of 1918 to 1920 and killed another 60 million around the World.
NONE of the above Homeopathic or Ayuravedic methods seeking a cure worked history records!
It took 18 years (1938) until a vaccine was developed and worked against influenza that was given first to American troops in World War 2, then Allied troops including Indian troops fighting the Japanes saving an estimated 4 million Allied military personnel.
Today in 2020 the Indian Government do not look to any Ayuravedic cure, their scientists instead are looking for a vaccine.
They have learned from past pandemics of Influenza, Small Pox, Cholera, Maleria, Hepatitis is cleanliness and isolation bring down deaths until a vaccine is found.
The real reason why the Vedic methods did not work is based on faith, conviction and following the proper Vedic teachings.
The reason India suffered so much was due to India straying so far away from their Vedic roots and teachings, that the faith had long, long ago been watered down by nonsense demigod worship and atheism just after the beginning of Kali-yuga.
As a result, the potency of the Vedas was almost lost now 5000 years into Kali-yuga.
The failure of the weak selfish Brahmin class, also allowed India to be invaded over thousands of years by invading barbaric Armies where millions were later forced converted Islam.
Under Islamic rule, millions of those who followd the Vedas were converted or killed if they did not convert.
The weak Brahmin class sadly allowed this to happen because their principles were compromised.
The Muslim violent invaders had their own name for those who followed the Vedas, they called them "Hindus" a word alien to Vedic texts.
Later Christanity also invaded India with the Portuguese and British.
Christianity became stronger in the 19th and early 20th Century under the British rule of India where British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said all these heathens in India, bother Hindu and Muslim, must be converted to Christianity.
British rule ended in 1947 with India being split into three major Countries, two ruled by Islam and only India being manly Hindus but secular.
Today there are more Muslims in India than in the rogue nations of the Indian Subcontinent Pakistan and Bangladesh and the territory Kashmir.
Once again, if Indian Vedic Brahmins were strong in their faith and principles over the last 4000 years, none of this degragation would of happened, where primitive murderous barbaric Islam was allowed to conquer India like an invading killer virus pandemic.
If the Brahmin class was strong in their Vedic principals on the Indian Subcontinent, then barbaric Islam would of never successfully invaded in the 9th Century AD and cause so much havoc.
And today powerful Brahmins would know the true knowledge and medical teachings and methods from Lord Dhanvantari and defeat all dreaded pandemics, like the Coronavirus COVID-19.
This would be defeated by potent Brahmins who strictly follow and live by the Vedic standards.
The purpose of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Sankirtan Movement is to RE-ESTABLISH the potency and strong faith in the Vedas that we have not seen for thousands of years due to this Kali-yuga.
Lord Caitanya also gave all living entities in Kali-yuga an easy way to return back home, back to Godhead, by simply chanting the Hare Krishna Maha mantra.
This material creation is NOT our real home!
All the temporary material bodily vessels we take on our journey in the material creation, are NOT who we really are.
Our real identity is an eternal spiritual body in the Spiritual World (Vaikuntha and Goloka Vrindavan)
In the material creation, all temporary bodily vessels or containers the jiva soul takes, eventually decays and fades away. The soul is then forced to take another material body if one still has material desires.
The problem is, all material bodily vessels are ALWAYS in a constant state of decline, disrepair, decay and in need of constant maintenance.
We must learn to understand that this material creation is NOT our real home.
This temporary material creation is always the external illusionary energy of the Lord that makes up 25% of the Spiritual Sky.
One should not waste their time trying to make themselves comfortable in this illusionary material world.
Real happiness can NEVER be achieved while we foolishly believe we are this decomposing, decaying material bodily vessel we are in.
The material bodies we see around us are also temporary containers that are in a constant state of decline and decay and part of this mundane temporary material creation.
Nearly everyone trapped here in this material creation, do not understand or comprehend that we are actually NOT the material external material bodily vessel, but are the passenger within (the jiva-soul).
Therefore this material creation is NOT our real home! And the material bodies we are in are NOT who we really are.
So right now is the time to go back home back to Godhead to our REAL eternal family in Vaikuntha and Goloka Vrindavana and discover our real eternal spiritual identity, personality and character.
Again, it is very important to understand that this material creation is NOT our real home....
Lets look at the sad historical facts.
ReplyDeleteMature sensible devotees know how to use Cow dung properly, and carefully do not burn it around children, old people and those with breathing difficulties and lung problems.
They are respecting the good qualities of Cow dung as described in Vedic texts.
However, we cannot blindly ignore the Indian Government and the World Health organisation study and warning that burning of Cow dung also kills 10s of thousands of people, especially young children, a year with air pollution, causing breathing difficulties and lung diseases.
In 1918/20 Influenza pandemic, Vedic Brahmins following the Vedic teachings of Dhanvantari, burned Cow dung among great crowds of Indians to try and rid the area of the Spanish Influenza virus.
Such religious gatherings did the exact opposite and spread the virus and over 20 million Indians died.
The reason why 20 million Indians died from this influenza pandemic, is because religious groups, holding mass congregation and then burning Cow dung, spreading Ganges water around, putting Tulsi on those infected, chanting mantras, only spread the virus among the crowds killing them.
Sadly history that anyone can look up, shows us none of those rituals the Brahmins performed, worked, people just blindly followed!
Again, 20 million Indians died.
It was only when they banned these religious gatherings and told the people to stay at home, did death numbers drop.
Isolation, NOT big religious crowds brought down death numbers.
And Modi today in Appril 2020 is telling everyone the same thing, to STAY AT HOME! This is where one can safely perform kirtan (chanting Hare Krishna) and prayer.
Do not attend this ignorant sentimental religious gatherings that will only spread the virus and kill you.
Being an old Prabhupada disciple and knowing Prabhupada well, the photo of pills and the comment "The ONLY medician" can be a little misleading.
ReplyDeletePrabhupada never denied Western medician if it was needed.
And he encouraged his disciples that if they are sick, see a Western doctor and not just an Ayuravedic Brahmin for healing.
In February 1973 Prabhupada cut his finger and it became serverly infected.
Prabhupada was always chanting Hare Krishna and translating but his finger was bothering him.
So he told us to bring him a doctor who could give him penicillin.
He was given penicillin and in a day, the infection was gone.
One young devotee could not understand why Krishna did not fully protect His pure devotee, he was new in the Krishna Consciousness movement and never believed in any medicians.
He sentimentally believed ONLY by praying to Krishna, would one always be fully protected by Krishna.
He was right, but not the way he believed.
This young devotee asked Prabhupada -
"I cannot understand Srila Prabhupada, you are very dear to Lord Krishna, why didn't He fully protect you?"
Prabhupada smiled at the boy and said -
"Oh yes, Krishna did protect me He sent me the penicillin"
Later in a class he told us Krishna protects and helps His devotees in many ways but likes to see his devotee do everything they can to help themselves.
Then said God will help those more who do everything they can to help themselves.
He then gave an example -
If you break your leg, you do not just sit there and chant Hare Krishna, no, you find a doctor who straightens the bones and puts your leg in a caste.
In this way, God helps those who help themselves.
Even in 1974 when there was a Small Pox out break in Calcutta, Prabhupada advised, if nessessary get the small pox vaccine.
Prabhupada was not against all these medicians as some devotees make out today.
He just emphasized the material existence and our decaying material body was our only disease, and for that the Hare Krishna mantra was the vaccine.
All this must be understood maturely so we can sometimes do maintenance on our troublesome material bodily vessel so we can be healthy enough to preach.
Mukunda Maharaj,
Gopal Krishna Maharaj,
Agnideva Dasa, to name a few, have all had open heart bye pass surgery.
And Jaypataka Swami has had liver and kidney transplant.
Just chanting Hare Krishna alone we must always do, and while we can, do everything we can to help ourselves.
My posts are exposing FAKE NEWS and conspiracy nonsense theories I will NEVER stop doing writing about.
ReplyDeleteI make no apologies!!
My association with Prabhupada found him reasonable ìn his dealings, but strict and my writings make no compromise.
Prabhupada explained important standards too me but later also spoke ìn his room, he even apologised to me for once being blunt in a letter he wrote to me ìn 1975.
These personal dealings with Prabhupada no one knows about, so stop arrogantly judging others! That is between the disciple and the Spiritual Master only.
So mind your own business and stop gossiping!
All I am saying is those idiot devotees who blame 5G for Coronavirus are crazy.
Just as crazy as those flat Earth devotees trying to influence the TOVP ìn Mayapur who should be kicked away from the place!!
All of my posts are related to trying to get Prabhupada's movement accepted by mainstream society, isn't that why we distribute Books?
All these stupid conspiracy theories from 5G rubblish to flat earth morons does not attract intelligent people to Prabhupada's Movement.
Do you understand This?
The fact is, all the "karmis" are NOT all dirty stinking rotten raksasa meat eating demons either as immature childish young devotee used to always say in the early days of ISKCON (The 1970s). Very sinful yes, but most are still innocent enough to be preached to in this early stage of Kali-yuga.
Do devotees really understand how compassionate Prabhupada was to the fallen souls in society? I'm one of them and he accepted me.
Prabhupada was always kind to guests, (in most cases), and later he may say things in his room because they are so fallen.
Although at a program in St Kilda in Melbourne in 1974, I saw Prabhupada lunge with cartels in hand when he saw a security guard man handle a devotee, it was amazing to see Prabhupada get very angry because a devotee was being pushed around.
Anyway, later I asked Prabhupada are all these people in our society really big, big demons, Prabhupada laughed and answered, no, most are just all very lusty.
Prabhupada showed many sides of his personality and teachings and NOT just what immature devotees turn into fanaticism, claiming he said everyone's a big DEMON and Raksasa, no, he NEVER said that!
That was not Prabhupada's mood most of the time, unless they were impersonalists or followers of Ramakrishna and other rascal bogus gurus or owned property in Bombay and gave Prabhupada a hard time.
Early devotees would understand this comment.
Here is Srila Prabhupada's REAL preaching mood that has attracted so many people.
Srila Prabhupada - "Human society, at the present moment, is NOT in the darkness of oblivion.
It has made rapid progress in the field of material comforts, education and economic development throughout the entire world.
But there is a pinprick somewhere in the social body at large, and therefore there are large-scale quarrels, even over less important issues.
There is need of a clue as to how humanity can become one in peace, friendship and prosperity with a common cause.
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam will fill this need, for it is a cultural presentation for the re-spiritualization of the entire human society.
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam should be introduced also in the schools and colleges, for it is recommended by the great student-devotee Prahlāda Mahārāja in order to change the demoniac face of society".
Excerpt from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Preface.
In 1918/20 only 15,000 died in Australia from the Spanish Influenza pandemic because they immediately ordered a lock, a stay at home order.
ReplyDeleteWhile a massive 90 million died around the world, 22 million just in India alone.
And India's Vedic Brahmins, following Ayurvedic methods, tried everything in big religious gatherings.
from burning Cow dung,
to spreading Ganges water,
putting Tulsi leaf on people.
And chanting mantras.
None of these things worked history records, deaths greatly increased.
In fact, it was the religious gatherings that helped spread the Spanish Flu everywhere killing millions.
22 million Indians died.
It was only when isolation began did numbers drop.
Sadly it took 18 years to develop a vaccine and millions more died through the 1920s and early 1930s.
The 1938 Influenza vaccine was used in world war 2 with all Allied troops and saved millions.
Also the many vaccines do protect everyone.
Please do not listen to these foolish anti-vaccination morons.
Look at History, before 1955, 250 million people died of various diseases from 1900 to 1955 that we now have vaccines for.
Such vaccines for
Influenza,
Cholera,
Polio,
Diphtheria,
Hepatitis,
Measels,
Mumps,
Small Pox,
Leprosy,
Whoop Cough,
Tetanus,
Rebola,
etc.
Since the 1940s, when the world Population was 2 just billion, because vaccines save lives, the world Population in 2020 is nearly 8 billion,
These stupid Anti-vaccination fools should look to history when in 1900, 7 out of every 10 children born were dead by 3 years of age.
Vaccinations has stopped this.
The fringe foolish anti-vaccination groups are all crack pots to bonafide medical doctors, in fact, laws have tightened because of them.
There IS no choice getting vaccine. The Gurukula at Murwillumbah have been warned if they avoid vaccinations.
All Government funding will stop and the Gurukula will be closed down and parents and ISKCON charged.
There is no choice!
