Theme Analysis
The advancement of the Krsna consciousness movement is not a passive phenomenon but an active, dynamic struggle that utilizes every available resource for the pleasure of the Divine. Śrīla Prabhupāda delineates a philosophy of practical engagement—often termed yukta-vairagya—where material assets like wealth, technology, and organizational structures are not rejected but are spiritualized by being employed in Krsna's service. This progression, however, inevitably faces opposition from materialistic elements in society, likened to demons. The success of the movement depends on the devotees' ability to remain sober, cooperative, and strictly aligned with the instructions of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
- Spiritualizing Matter: Material objects such as machines, airplanes, and wealth are not inherently mundane; when used to spread spiritual knowledge, they become tools for liberation.
- Inevitable Conflict: Just as Kamsa tried to kill Krsna, atheistic forces will naturally oppose the movement, but this resistance cannot stop the divine mission.
- Strategic Benevolence: The movement aims to inject spiritual life into the "dead body of material nature," utilizing economic and intellectual development for the highest welfare of humanity.
- Internal Strength: The rapid advancement of the mission relies on the internal cooperation of its leaders and their adherence to the orders of the previous acaryas.
- Explore the synthesized essence of this category in this Vanipedia article: Utilizing Material Assets for Advancing the Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Movement.
Pages in category "Advancing the Krsna Consciousness Movement"
The following 22 pages are in this category, out of 22 total.
F
- For instance, we are using many machines for the advancement of our present Krsna consciousness movement, machines like typewriters, dictaphones, tape recorders, microphones and airplanes
- Fortunately the Krsna consciousness movement is there to give all facilities for both material and spiritual advancement. In this way people in the Western countries may take advantage of this movement
I
- I am especially appealing to the GBC men to take this mission of Krishna Consciousness movement very, very soberly and without any inebrieties for advancing the knowledge of how to inject Krishna Consciousness into the dead body of material nature
- I am especially enthusiastic for our Krishna Consciousness philosophy or the teachings of Lord Caitanya to be advanced for the benefit of the learned circle and in this connection your well received expose at the university is encouraging
- I am very much encouraged that you are offering your considerable services for helping me to advance this bhakti-yoga system or Krishna Consciousness Movement all over the world
- If we simply follow Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s instructions and follow in the footsteps of Sri Nityananda Prabhu, this Krsna consciousness movement can advance
- If whatever we do, whatever we eat, whatever we think and whatever we plan is for the advancement of the Krsna consciousness movement, this is oneness
- Instead of spending money for advancing the Krsna consciousness movement, one spends his hard-earned money on clubs, brothels, liquor, slaughterhouses and so forth
- It is my satisfaction that is important; my wish is that you all GBC members cooperate and advance the mission of this society. That will satisfy me
O
- One may be rich, learned, beautiful or highborn. One who has all these assets should know that they are all meant for the advancement of Krsna consciousness
- One should understand that the wealth and opportunity one gets in the material world should not be squandered in sense gratification. They are meant for the advancement of Krsna consciousness
T
- The asuras, the demons, impede the advancement of the Krsna consciousness movement, and therefore Krsna arranges occasional fights between different asuras who are very much interested in increasing their military power
- The sadhus, the devotees of the Lord, are always eager to advance the cause of Krsna consciousness so that the conditioned souls may be released from the bondage of birth and death
- They have admitted, some of their party, "If this movement is allowed to advance, then some day they will take our government." They have expressed that feeling. And now they are preparing to fight out
W
- We are also astounded upon thinking of whether this movement (KC) will be killed by the asuras or will continue to advance without fear - as Devaki and Vasudeva were thinking if Krsna gets killed by Kamsa, although they knew He could not be killed
- When intelligent people begin to understand our philosophy & theology, that it is the Absolute Truth & that if anyone become Krishna Conscious, that is the highest perfection of understanding philosophy, then our KC Movement will advance very quickly
- When our Krsna conscious devotees go out to beg charity or collect contributions in the form of membership fees, the money thus coming to the Krsna consciousness movement is strictly employed to advance Krsna consciousness all over the world
- With such sentiment for Krsna, or Krsna consciousness, we can accept everything. If the typewriter can be utilized for advancing our Krsna consciousness movement, we must accept it
