Has modern science and technology greatly helped spread the teachings of the Vedas today?
Just look at Srila Prabhupada's wonderful ISKCON Books with beautiful painting in them too, in the 1930s that high quality technology did not exist.
The Srimad Bhagavatam, the Caitanya Caritamrita and Bhagavad Gita As It Is we have today was not possible to print in the 1930s.
Also until Prabhupada came to the United States of America in 1965 and flew around the World 12 times in 10 years telling millions about Krishna, convincing the Beatles to sing about Krishna, no one knew anything about Krishna.
The use of modern technology told the entire world about Krishna.
No Krishna devotee in all of history has spread Krishna teachings so far and wide like Srila Prabhupada did by using modern technology.
Before 1965 the teachings of Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu was only in small villages in mostly Bengal.
Today there is a Temple in every major city on the planet and is booming presently in Russia, Ukraine and Africa.
This is how a devotee of Krishna uses modern science.
And the instrument of Facebook technology continues this expansion.
We have 180,000 members from all over the world on our Vedic Cosmology sites and Sankirtan sites. (Just my sites) other devotees have many sites too.
Today around the world there are 10 million followers of the Hare Krishna Movement (ISKCON) and that since 1965 (just 55 years old in the West and Eastern Europe.)
