Śrīla Prabhupāda teaches that the ''mahat-tattva'' is the aggregate of all material ingredients, serving as the primary source from which the entire cosmic manifestation is born. While the Lord's eternal form exists prior to and transcendental to this creation, He temporarily manifests the material world by glancing over His external energy. This art...")

Śrīla Prabhupāda explained that such blindness is the root cause of all social and personal chaos. While modern civilization prides itself on scientific advancement, Śrīla Prabhupāda argued that without transcendental vision, these advancements are merely "blind men guiding other blind men." This article examines the necessity of spiritual sight and the process by...")
- 08:23, 22 January 2026 Navakishora Mukunda talk contribs created page Blind Leading the Blind - Prabhupāda’s Critique of Godless Leadership (Created page with "Śrīla Prabhupāda was a fearless critic of any leadership that ignored the existence of God. He often quoted the Vedic aphorism ''andha yathāndhair upanīyamānās'', which describes the tragedy of a blind man being led by another blind man. According to Śrīla Prabhupāda, the "blindness" of modern leaders stems from their lack of spiritual vision and their obsession with the bodily concept of life. Without a connection to the Supreme Being, Kṛṣṇa, such leader...")
- 08:18, 22 January 2026 Navakishora Mukunda talk contribs created page The Forest Fire of Saṁsāra - Extinguishing the Blazing Fire of Material Existence (Created page with "The material world is often described as a place of enjoyment, but Śrīla Prabhupāda, following the teachings of the ''ācāryas'', presents a more realistic comparison: it is a "blazing forest fire."

Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, are the supreme guiding principles. Śrīla Prabhupāda taught that the spiritual master is not a mortal body but an eternal principle manifest through his words.
