Pseudo-vaishnava-dharma and pure Vaishnava Dharma

– Conclusions against Vaishnava philosophy have spread everywhere. Some people promote Mayavada philosophy as Vaishnava philosophy. Some people mix impersonalism and secularism with a portion of pure religious principles and present a perverted Vaishnava religion. Those who are sober Vaishnavas remain as kanistha-adhikaris as defined in the Srimad Bhagavatam, beginning with the words arcayam eva haraye. There is a definite absence of intelligent pure Vaishnavas. The same condition that a living entity is put in if he does not have a teacher is being faced by Gaura-mandala. (Sajjana-toshani 6/2)

Is the blasphemy of Sanatana-Dharma by the Christians reasonable?

– Is the blasphemy of Sanatana-Dharma by the Christians reasonable?

– One who is at heart a follower of Mohammed will certainly find the doctrines of the New Testament to be a forgery created by a fallen angel. A Trinitarian Christian on the other hand will denounce the precepts of Mohammed as those of an ambitious reformer. The simple reason they criticize each other is that they are of a different disposition of mind. Thoughts have different ways.

Vaishnava view on Buddhism, Jainism, and Tantric philosophy

– Why did Buddhism and Jainism appear in the world?

– By composing selfish religious literature, the so-called Brahmanas began to cheat people. Being unable to fight, so-called kshatriyas lost their kingdoms and eventually began to preach Buddhist philosophy. The so-called vaishyas began to preach philosophies like Jainism. As a result, India lost a great deal of business. The so-called sudras, being unable to engage in their natural service activities became plunderers. The study of Vedic literature gradually diminished. Taking advantage of the situation, the kings of the mleccha countries attacked and conquered India. (Caitanya-siksamrta 2/3)

Through intensive research, Garbe, who was a professor in Greece, has ascertained that Aristotle was the disciple of Gautama’s philosophy of Nyaya, Thelis was the disciple of Kanada’s philosophy of Vaisesika, Sacretis was the disciple of Jaimini’s Mimamsa, Pluto was the disciple of Vyasadeva’s Vedanta, Pythagoras was the disciple of Kapila’s Sankhya, and Zino was the disciple of Patanjali’s yoga.
