20250103 - Sāṅkhya Philosophy

Sam Krishna, Krishna Hare Hare.

So we'll continue from the topic of today his different philosophies. We are starting with the philosophy of Sankhya. What Sankhya philosophy means. So Sankhya philosophy. By the conjunction of Prakriti, nature and Purusha spirit individuality arises. The annihilation of individuality is the ultimate goal of human life. Whether it is through Karma, work or Viveka discrimination. Concept of enjoyer and enjoyed in Prakriti and Purusha is eternal. If this concept can be eradicated, the cessation of the threefold mysteries is the ultimate goal. This is the Sankhya opinion. This viewpoint fundamentally contradicts the true nature of the soul. Sa. In this material world, the individual souls take the position of male and female. But everyone wants to enjoy. But they do that in a different way. But in the spiritual world everyone is Purusha. Sorry, there is only one Purusha. Sorry. That's Krishna, his expansions and all the Rakitis that can be friends of that can be friendship of Krishna, Saravas of Krishna. They can have male bodies and.

Female fathers.

Hell and they can have female fathers. Male.

Always has larger has.

But in the conjugal love, all the Gopis, all the queens, they are all the female. They are serving Krishna's Krishna smile on theirselves in that particular Rasa concepts of Krishna and in the spiritual world there is no envy, there is a desire to enjoy. Then Krishna allows that and they can go to the material world and enjoy results. So the Karma produce good results and bad results. So people enjoy or people suffer. Ha. That's the difference. For devotees who practice Bhakti Yoga ka consciousness. They want to serve Kajal and normal people in the material world. They think that enjoying whatever the material world has to offer that's the goal of the material life. Goal of life. So in that way they take again and again new birth. Sometimes men, sometimes women. So for them they don't think much about Krishna, about God. They are under the orders of Maya. They just ask I want this, I want that. They just give the shopping list. But God is not meant to be our supplier. Serving him is actually much more fulfilling. Okay, the next philosophy is called Purva Nimamsa philosophy. The Apurva unseen link between the ritual action and its eventual result produced by the actions performed by the Jiva itself is the giver of the fruits of those actions. According to this view, moksha, liberation and Ishya controlling power of the supreme Lord do not exist. This is the opinion of Jaimini Purva Nimant Philosophy. According to this philosophy, everything is Karma. So whatever you produce your activity, there is no God, there is no liberation. We are stuck forever. So that's Purva Mimamsa philosophy. The next one is Patanjala Yoga philosophy. Kaivalya is a pen attained through nice Carmia. Desireless actions or activities performed without exception of any sense gratification. An unrecognized condition is achieved through Kriya Yoga, the Yoga of actions and by the rise of Bhairagya at the time of awakening. This Patanjala opinion has already been shown to be contradictory to the true nature of the soul.

Krishna.

The nature of the soul is to serve Krishna the millions of universes of the material energy. So the Patanjali Yoga is performing activities without any desires of any sense gratification activities. But they don't want anything. It's not realistic. Because naturally people want things and it is Krishna. We want to serve him, we want to please Him. So in this way the Patanjalo system is against the true nature of the soul. Next philosophy is Nyaya Ambaisheshika philosophy. In the text authored by Gautama who composed the Nyaya Shastra and Kannada who composed Vaishikav Shastra, the eternality of atoms and other elements is accepted just as the eternality of the soul and Ishvara, the Supreme Lord is acknowledged. In that the consciousness of the Jiva is not accepted. The Jiva is called an atom and the man is also called an atom. In that the Jiva is determined as the Ninga subtle body. Some Nyaya philosopher accepts liberation and in these liberations, like the Sahaja Jiwa, liberation with Brahman particularly signifies the destruction of the Jiva. In the Vedanta commentary by Sankaracharya, the Jiva is also considered temporary. The original Vedanta Shastra is indeed the truly auspicious scripture. And in the devotional commentaries on these scriptures the pure nature of the Jiva is discussed. Rather, the previously mentioned opinions are contrary to the nature of the Jiva. All these should be rejected. There is a note there. For there is a note by Sri chaitanya charitambrita madhya lilla 25:57 okay, anyone who wants to establish his own opinion or philosophy certainly cannot explain any scripture according to the principle of direct interpretation. The Ninan Shaka philosophers conclude that if there is a God, he is subject to our fruitic activities. Similarly, the Samkhya philosophers who analyze the cosmic manifestation say that the cause of the cosmos is material nature. The followers of Nyaya the philosophy of logic maintain that the atom is the cause of the cosmic manifestation. And the Myavi philosophers maintain that the impersonal Brahman effulgence is the cause of the cosmic manifestations. The Patanjala philosopher says that when one is self realized, they understand the Lord similarly. Sorry, when one is self realized, he understands the Lord similarly, according to the Vedas and Vedic principles, the original cause is the Supreme Personality of Goyhead. After studying the six philosophical pieces, D completely summarized them all in the aphorism of the Vedanta. According to the Vedanta philosophy, the Absolute True is a person. When the word Niguna without qualities is used, it is to be understood that the Lord has attributes that are totally spiritual. Of the philosophers mentioned, none really cares for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the cause of all causes. They are always busy refuting the philosophical theories of others and establishing their own. By studying the six philosophical theories, one cannot reach the Absolute Truth. It is therefore our duty to follow the path of the Mahajanas, the authorities. Whatever they say should be accepted as the supreme Truth. The word of Caitanya Mahaprabhu are a shower of nectar. Whatever he concludes to be the Ultimate True is indeed the summum bonum of all spiritual knowledge. So all these six philosophies, they are not established in the truth. Some people accept, some people they accept. Okay, there may be God, but I.

Think that he has to finally give favorable results on their trauma.

But he thinks that actually finally he need to give out the results of the people's karma. So he's more or less bound up in our philosophy. We believe that the Jiras are part of the Absolute Truth and the Jira is eternal and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is eternal. However.

We can have a personal relationship with Krishna and therefore we can have.

A personal relationship with Krishna. But these philosophies, they don't give so much importance or they don't have any idea at all of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

So in a nutshell, you have heard our six.

You have heard all about the six philosophies. The.

Honestly supported by the Lagos.

The philosophy that we support by the Vegas is the philosophy that was given by Diazabel and spread by Lord Chaitanya. So in that way we are all eternal. But in the material world, we need to take birth after birth, after birth, after birth, the soul never changes. The soul is called Atma, not an atom. All right, so tomorrow another section is experience of opposites in the nature of one's duty. That's for tomorrow topic. Do you want to go one more or end here? If you ask for kids candy, they will look for candy. Yeah. This one. This topic is experience of opposites in the nature of one's deity Swadharma Sarupa Bhidanub Devotion is the inherent deity of the soul. Recognizes the contradiction to one Swadharma is extremely important. The bhakti which is indicated by the terms such as Bhagavad Shrad, faith in God, Bhagavad Anivatiya following God, Bhagavad Mishta steep fastness in devotion, Bhagavad Ruchi taste for the Lord Bhagavad Ashakti attachment to the Lord Bhagavad Rati attention to the Lord Babat Anirab love for God Bharati love for God and Bharava Bhav eschatic feeling towards God. This bhakti is the swadharma of the living entity. That's six. Any of you like any of the other six philosophies. So the goal of the Buddhist and many of these people is to not to exist.

Annihilation, annihilation. Life enjoyment and suffering and suffering and war running out of this.

So because they think that life is enjoyment and suffering. But suffering is more so better not exist taken enjoyment only lead to more suffering. Actually in other philosophies they have no faith and bliss Ruchi. So mother and father they came and they walked towards the door. So they walk into the door with their hands and arms together. Went all nice into a temple and went into a very type to get the body out. So we want all of you to get Ashakti. And after that Bharat Rati Anira Affection, love, pity, love for God Baba and static feelings towards God for tomorrow. Experience of opposites in the nature of the result. The experience of opposites in nature of the result. That's for tomorrow. Don't try to get everything today they want today. Is it not possible? I find out today that Bengal is not is the number one. It's not any more than number one. No. Has 99.8% numbers. So we are not the number one three, 90 99.3 and there is Kella 99.5 or something for is the home state of Shiraz. Now is the Bible all right for all of you. For distribution with the shape of a heart we take his remnants. So we purify. Even though we have to enjoy. He naturally is enjoyable. And late in our relationships as a couple we do the Garba Dharma Samskara. Then we have Krishna Consciousness Children's Acharyas.
