As predicted some 5000 years ago in Srimad Bhagvatam , the people in the Age of Kali have become ignorant and lost their intelligence to sense gratification and weakness of mind. Everyone today considers America to be one of the most powerful and richest country and a happy nation and others in the world think to live a American Life. Well I was one of them until my fantasy was shattered when I actually landed on this land.
After staying here for a little more than 2 years and looking at the conditions of life in America, I consider America to be most unfortunate and poorest of nations . I know these statements are shocking for some and utterly outrages for most Americans, but It is a fact. When I see around me America has all material opulences as given my GOD, but still the people hear are afraid, unhappy, always, angry and lusty. Even after having so much wealth why are people so unhappy in this place. The answer is found in Bhagvad Gita. The answer to this is the great loss of intelligence.
As per Vedic Wisdom, each living entity is on this planet for sense gratification. Everyone has a part to play. Vedic literature describes the duties of different classes of men and their functions for the smooth running of the social order and to attain ultimate goal of human life which is to realize GOD.
As per the Vedas, society has to be divided in to 4 classes of men namely , brahmanas, kshtriyas, vaishyas and sudras. These classes have to made as per once qualifications and not based on birth. Bramhnas are described as the brains of the society ,ksahtriyas the adminstrative heads, viashyas the mechantile class and sudras the workers.
Bramhanas hold the topmost position who instruct the kshasriyas to rule the world on religious principles as per the guidelines or instructions of the Supreme through Vedas. Kshatriyas are the second class , vaishays the thrid class and sudras the fourth class.
These divisions are based on the qualification of the person and not on birth. If a person is born in bramhan family but does not have any brahmanical qualifications he should be considered a sudra. This was the norm. But due to the effect of this age, everyone today have started claiming their rights on others properies and have fallen below sudra level. so in todays society we find no bramhans or kshariyas . The society is dominated by sudras who donot follow any rules and regulations and do whimsically whatever feels good. That is the norm these days.
It is saddening to see that, drinking , smoking, illicit sex, gambling which are the four pillars of sinful life are so prominent in America that people have considering it to be normal. Infact people wait till they are 21 so that they can start drinking. This is the most fallen situation. The condition is created by the ignorant leaders who are whimsically misleading the people so that they themselves can enjoy.
Moreover, Vedas also describe the specific duties of a man and a woman , inorder to maintian a healthy society so that they both can advance in spiritual understanding and reach their ultimate goal of life , i.e of know Krishna. As per the vedas men have are endowed with specific qualities and women with different qualities and when both of them work in conjuction with their qualities they can succeed.
Men have a higher intelligence than women , Again in todays world most of the women would consider to be a partial or male ego comment, but this is a fact. But what these women fail to recognize is that they are endowed with a quality of affection , which is lacking in men. This quality is very powerful, any women who becomes affectionate to God can become most exalted devvotee of Krishna, very quickly without going through the trouble some path of self realization through vedas. Whereas men who are intelligent cannot belive in anything very quickly and have to learn the vedas to generate this affection.
Hence the Vedas describe that men are supposed to learn the Vedas thorougly to develop devotion and love for GODHEAD . Since they have the intelligence they are supposed to support the women at everystage of their lives in order to protect them from being misused because of their natural tendency of becoming affectionate.
Similarly women are supposed to be chaste and support her learned husband in every decision he makes and help and serve him in order to advance spiritually with him.
But Now a days, because of so called democracy and propaganda of some selfish men to satisfy their lust, women are made to think that they are independent and can do as they wish without the support of men . This has lead to a chaotic situation where, women's bodies are used for satifying the lust of few men in the name of modelling, advertisements, movies they just propound lusty behavior. By nature women are allured my material things, hence they easily believe all this propaganda and are misled. In America , it is most prominent now a days, they change their partners and have unrestricted sexual relations with any partner without considering its consequences. People have lost all their intelligence to lust , greed, anger, pride and have forgotten the laws laid down by GOD. People in so called rich America are disturbed in their minds, since they have no control on their desires. They do whimsically what their minds tell them to do. Minds of most of the people are covered with lust, anger, false pride, ego and they act to satisfy these things creating actions which they will have to pay for in this or next life.
Every child raised here has these lust , anger false pride and ego embedded in them from the very beginning and hence they it becomes very difficult of them to imagine a happier world were they are free from all these anxieties and they can enjoy a constant bliss. They are constantly bombarded with the images, of violence, sex, pride, through television, new papers. They are constantly being trained from their childhood to only work for enjoying life ,without knowing their role and responsibility in the world. Now in this polluted atmosphere they loose all their control and during the last stages of their life they become lonely and deserted where death awaits them , when they have to leave all the material positions, loved once, their country , their wealth, their ego of being an American and all that they dreamt of to accept another body of a animal because they have wasted one chance of human form in nonsense.
While considering all these factors and reviewing the lifes lived by Americans in the light of Bhagvad Gita and the age old Vedas , there is no surprise when I say that Americans are the Most poorest of all due to the great loss of intelligence in this land. So I would appeal to all those who happen to read this, To please leave their false egos aside and for once , atleast once try to understand the philosophy of Bhagvad Gita As it is , and then see altogether another dimension of life.

Most sincere appeal
Dear All,
As mentioned above, the following is my humblest and
the most sincere appeal to all , Some of you might take is seriously,
some may take it as insane, some may become angry and detestful and
some may just sarcastically joke about it and others may neglect it.
These different reactions are due to different mental status in
accordance to the level of ignorance.
Over the 5 years I have been roaming around the world, I
have met with people with different mentalities and have seen various
kinds of people. I know you all must have noticed a shift in my
behavior during the last 6 months or so. There is a reason to it. If
you have looked at my emails, you will find, I have been stressing of
reading Bhagvad Gita a lot these days, well I have done that and put a
sincere effort to understand the philosophy which is so sublime and
important that, it will change your entire life and direct you to the
blisfull and a happy life with no anxiety, that is a guarantee. But
this is only possible if you read the book sincerely and with
submissive attitude, an argumentative attitude will not help.
Now you must be thinking why is that all of a sudden I am
talking all philosophical. Bhagvad Gita says,.
" While contemplating the object of senses a person develops
attachment for them and from such attachement lust develops, and from
lust anger arises"
"From anger, complete delusion arises, and from delusion bewilderment
of memory. When memory is bewildered intelligence is lost, and when
intelligence is lost on falls down into the material pool"
"lust is the all devouring enemy of this world" .
While associating with various people during , I observed their
behaviors. Frankly speaking I saw, most of the people I met are
diseased with lust, anger, greed, pride, false prestige, false ego
which is making them sometimes happy and sad, nevertheless everyone I
know is in anxiety all the time. Some people are obsessed with
material things, like restaurants, shopping, clothes , fashion , some
are obsessed with food, some want to speak about others mistakes
without realizing what their own , some want to gossip , some are busy
comparing once wealth , beauty or other such opulences with others and
becoming envious, some are trying to lie, cheat and threaten others to
satisfy this lust which everyone things is love. With so many
anxieties occupying once mind there is no question of happiness,
Inorder to satisfy these anxieties, people take shelter or
intoxication , women or men, gambling, meat eating naively thinking
them to be fun. And I am sorry to say this but all these symptoms are
present in all of us in different degrees. But the fault of our
generation is that, we take it to be normal and try to adjust with
these things and eventually regret on our actions. That is the modern
society we live in.
All these things with are the source of misery , we take it
to be happiness , this is the delusion we are living in, the reason
for this is mentioned in Bhagvad Gita , which says, that It is the
misidentification of ourselves which leads to all this misconceptions.
Most of us identify ourselves to be the body or the mind, but the
truth is we are neither this body or the mind, we are eternal souls
and parts of the same Father.
Now all these things might seem to you as some fairy tale or some
concept with is just a fantasy to all, but the fact is this is the
real truth which cannot be explained but has to be realized.
People talk to me about common sense, but these very people fail to
see, that the lives we are living are no better than animals. Animals
as we see around us , are engaged in four basic things, eating ,
sleeping, mating and defending. We as human beings are doing the same
in a sophisticated ways misusing our higher intelligence to find out
ways of advancing in better eating , better sleeping, better mating
and better defending. But people fail to recognize that this advanced
human form is being bestowed for higher understanding. As per the
Vedas, this human form is very rare and, should not be wasted in
material desires. The purpose of human form of life is to know what
are we and why are we here and Bhagvad Gita is the ABCD of this
inquiry. When you observe the environment around you , intelligent
person would ask , that who is supplying these necessities of life,
such as eating, sleeping, mating and defending to the animals, they
are not building factories of working 9 to 5 jobs , but they are
sustaining , with Gods supply.
I write all these things to you all , because , having spend a little
more than a year or so , I feel that I should share this greatest book
of knowledge which is available only by good fortune to some. Some of
you would think that I am very egoistic and proud to think that I know
better that anyone, but I have no intention to displace any pride
since I am as ignorant as anyone else and only difference is by some
divine intervention, I have been presented with this opportunity and I
am trying to understand this wisdom and I want to share this with you
all. The decision rests on you. Once again I would emphasize that I am
not trying to convert any one to Hinduism or something . I am just
trying to present this scientific knowledge totally unknown to today's
mudane world . All the religious scriptures derive their origin from
this wisdom, that will be realized in the later stages of
understanding. For now one who is serious may try to take this as a
course and try to study with determination and sincerity. With
progress you will find your self detached from all the nonsense things
which has been polluting our minds, and you become least interested
with material discussions. The best way it to have faith in the
teaching and read it diligently every day for atleast half an hour in
the morning and try to apply what is learned there. It is not at all
difficult to find half an hour totally dedicated to this task in the
morning .I am trying to apply and learn this science from past 6
months and I will continue to do it further, If you have any questions
regarding this topic feel free to contact me or visit the following
link where you will find more details, rest of the material
discussions are least attractive to me.

Somthing to think about!!!!
Death, as we all know is a sure reality. At the end of ones lifetime a living entity has to leave whatever material possesion he has accumulated and die. At this critical moment of time, nodbody can help you to live longer , even the doctors become helpless. Nor millions of dollars, not the assests , not your family, wife, chlidren, mother , father, or friends can save a person from death, so this reality brings us to a point were we as human beings having an advanced intelligence should think , that if everthing I accumulate by so much of effort is going to be taken away from me then , why should i work for the bare neccessities so hard . One may argue that since the life is short and one is going to die one should enjoy as much as possible at any body's expense. Well it is a very lucrative idea but it is an idea which is full of ignorance and has no reality . People are made to think in this way in todays modern world. This is mainly because the innocent mass of people are led by some ignorant and atheistic , selfish leaders. Young generation who have seen their forefathers, worshipping and following religious principles , do not feel the need to so the same since the world around them does not care for it , the world they live in is full of hypocrisy and ignorance,at every step, so the due of the parents in this age has increased immensely to properly educate with proper reasoning about the religious and regulative principles inorder to avoid them to be pushed into ignorance.
Now from Bhagvat Gita and other vedic scriptures, we get the information, though death is fact, it is not the end of life. A person or a individual we see in this world is a eternal spirit soul, this spirit soul is never destroyed, burnt, wettet, dried or anhiliated, the symptoms of the soul is consiouscess in the body. The nature of the soul is to be blissfull and happy ,hence every individual in this world is searching for happiness,
The search for happiness is not something material , it is the property of the soul. But the major drawback of the modern philosophy is that they are not adequately made aware of these principles and hence they are misdirected to fall in to ignorance. Now one may ask , ok if there is a soul so what is the connection of death? The answer to it is , death is a phenomenon, wherein this soul , changes body and goes to another body according to the activities and desires in his present and previous life. So life of any person who is a spirit soul or the consiouscness and not the body, is eternal and does not end. As per the activities it performs in this life will determine his next life. For example , if a person not considering these things, carelessly , indulges in just eating , sleeping, mating and defending, which pertain to this material body , will have to accept a body of an animal , which has better resources to fulfill the purpose which he is interested in, i.e eating, sleeping, mating and defending. These are the repucursions of living life of so called " enjoy and be merry life is short" , indeed life is short hence one should immediately think of utilizing it properly in Krishna consiouness and not wasting it. For, you do not know , when you will again get a chance of this human form of life with advanced intelligence.
Moreover, if you analyse the life lived by a Krishna consious person and a so called modern man, you will find that even materially , a Krishna conscious person is happier and satisfied than a modern day man , who is always tensed and full of anxiety due to fear and unpredictable future, since he is in ignorance without the wisdom of age old Bhagvad Gita.
So lets analyse the aspects as they stand today.
Modern philosophy,
1. Enjoy, life is short and one day
your are going to die, what is the use of following regulative priciples.
Vedic Philosophy,
1. Human life is meant to achieve Krishna consciousness and elevate to spiritual realm of GOD.
Modern Philosophy,
2. Highly insufficient to explain a logical
explanation of origin of life and
purpose of life.
Vedic Philosophy,
2. Gives exact number , dates and years on the species and the creation of the universe.
Moder Philoshophy
3. Looks very lucrative , but pushes one
into a darkness where people are frustrated
envious, jealous, hypocrates , lusty, and
criminal minded.
Vedic Philosophy
3. Indeed requires some hardwork and effort to understand the philosophy and apply, but makes on self realised of the true meaning of life and it gives happiness if practiced.
Modern Philosophy
4. This philoshopy is based on mental speculation
Vedic Philosophy
4. Philosophy can be realized in its true essence when practiced properly under the supervision of a bonafide spiritual master.
Modern Philosophy
5. Leads to lot of after affects , life , frustration
anger, anxiety, fear etc.
Vedic Philosophy
5. No harm at all, will make person lovable, free from anger and fear.
So it is a point to be thought by intelligent men, whether , it is worth spending the most valuable human form in quest of something that is never going to be true, or to utilize this life for finding out the truth and following them. First step to understanding the absolute truth and end the cycle of birth and death is to understand in toto the philosophy of Bhagvad Gita As it is and try to apply it practically.

Why does bad things happen to good people?
One may ask , this question and question the judgement of GOD , It often is puzzling when we see some very terrible things happening to people who are good. Well the answer leads to reincarnation.
Reincarnation:
Many people today do not have a slightest of idea about reincarnation or life after death, many people donot "believe" in reincarnation. The question of believing or not believing , arises when one is in ignorance, but when by the grace of Krishna and Guru, one becomes knowlegdable , there is no such thing as belief, everhing is a fact. As per Bhagvat Gita , a living entity after death changes bodies , in the same way as he changes clothes, this phenomena is called transmigration of soul or in other words reincarnation.
The living soul, changes or transmigrate from one body another according to his desires in the past life under the direction of the nature. In that particular body the living soul, does some work during his prescribed lifetime from birth to death and the results of work, that is karma ,has to be paid by the living entity as per the law , so it some of these results are carried to the next life from the previous lives.
Thus , whatever a person experiences ,in this life, i.e good or bad is nothing but the payment of his karma or actions. So a person may be acting good in this life due to his good activities in past life, but , the sinful acts or the bad karma , from the previous lives , puts that particular individual into distress. So happiness and distress experienced by a person are only because of his bad karma and not because of any one else. A person in the current situation who has caused that distress is just a medium by which you are paying off your debt. Now if a person out of ignorace starts blaming others for his distress , he starts developing negative karma, which he has to pay in later stages of life. Thus a person is constantly creating and paying karma in a cycle of birth as per his activities. Now some one may ask , so is there and escape to this cycle , the answer is yes, By sincerely surrendering to the lotus feet of Krishna (GOD) one becomes free from this cycle of birth and death.
Now one more question that may arise is why is that GOD , put us in this viscous circle ,if he is nice?
Well GOD is good, he is always a well wisher of a living entity, It is not GOD's fault that we are stuck in this cycle, but it is our desires which place us in this precarious position. We wanted to lord it over the material nature and become GOD ourselves , and Krishna is just giving us that chance. He never interferes with the little independence we living entities have. In fact , GOD is so kind, that every moment, he finds and the opportunity sitting with every ones heart to instruct the living entity to return back to HIM. He sends his representatives in order to carry out his missions.

He sends his representatives in order to carry out his missions.
Our true identity
Who are we ? Are we to be known by religion , country, name , caste, creed, sex , occupation or something else. All these are just designations of the material body , which is represented by the above mentioned elements, but factually, every living entity in this universe is a servant of GOD, when he forgets this constitutional position , the living entity under the influence of maya(illusion ) starts serving his senses. Hence one way or the other every one is serving , the only difference is with the minute independence the living soul has , he can either prefer to serve Krishna , the reserviour of all pleasure ,or he can choose to serve the senses under the influence of maya , which is under the supervision on Krishna. So one way or the other a living entity is still serving Krishna.
This fact is easily visible, a person who is lusty searchs for the opposite sex in order to serve his genitals, angry person screams and try to beat others inorder to serve his angry mind, fights occur because of the tendency of different mentailties clashing together. So called love of the material world leads into divorces and fights, since the husband or wife is no longer capable of satisfying others senses. So this is how people are serving different senses.
Whereas a devotee , engages in the normal activities ,but only to serve krishna, all his senses are utilized to serve krishna, he uses his tounge to chant Krishna;s holy name, and to taste krishna prasadam, his eyes to see Krishna , his nose to smell flowers offered to krishna, legs to go to the temple, hands to prepare food of do service for Krishna, genitals to beget children in Krishna consiousness, hence all his senses are controlled and he lives in peace.
But the most unfortunate thing for this so called modern age is , people are too much engrossed in serving their senses, this is only due to ignorance. The biggest problem is they do not see the need to change this and find out the source of ever lasting happiness, inorder to find a little happiness , they are ready insult others, exploit , cheat in order to please their senses. It is impossible to fully satisfy the senses, that is explained in Bhagvad Gita, senses are compared to snakes , they will never stop hissing, so it is a waste labor to work day and night to satisfy the senses and neglect the self. Young boys and girls , today are engrossed in so much of materilism, that many of them dont even find time for GOD a few minutes in a day. We have become so ungrateful, that we, the part and parcel of GOD, are living in the world created by him, which is his property, using a body given by him, everything practically we are attached to is HIS property , but we are fighting with each other to acquire the lordship on it , which will be forcefully taken from us at the time of death , instead of thanking him for what he has given and using it properly for HIS enjoyment.
People around the world are just setting up bad examples for the future generations, which will be born in a polluted environment, where, they will be taught only to work hard to gratify the senses and die in the end with a regret that with so much of efforts it also, he was unsuccessful in his mission to satisfy his senses.
It is utmost important or to pharse is better MOST important the responsible people should read this age old wisdon Bhagvat Gita and take to Krishna ,rather than wasting this human form of life simply eating, sleeping, mating and defending .
This fact is easily visible, a person who is lusty searchs for the opposite sex in order to serve his genitals, angry person screams and try to beat others inorder to serve his angry mind, fights occur because of the tendency of different mentailties clashing together.
