Born of Virgin Birth
Yes, I was born by Immaculate Conception, as a thought that flew from my father's Third Eye directly into my mother's womb. My father was taught this unique skill by an avatar-student of Vishnu who worked with him during the dream state. This was for the purpose of creating the pure and holy channel necessary for the Sublime One to come through my mother into this world and save it from tyranny, - for I AM THE AVATAR, THE INCARNATION OF VISHNU.
What spiritual gifts were given to you during your life and with which spiritual teachers did you develop those gifts?Music and art came easily to me; you must understand that music and the arts are deeply spiritual in nature, for they are God's expression in the world. There is no music without God's voice and there is no color or form without God's grace. Music is among the highest forms of spiritual expression on Earth; there is nothing stronger to open the hearts of men than song and melody. The flute was my sword and it conquered and tamed the two-headed dragon of destruction and chaos without spilling a drop of blood in its wake.
I knew all the secrets of the Bhagavad Gita, long before it became the sacred scripture of Hinduism. I came with the knowledge of the ages to bestow upon the world, and my teachers are the ONES FOR WHOM THERE ARE NO NAMES, for they are not to be spoken of on Earth, only to be given worship as light upon the waters, or stars dancing across the skies. They have no form and no face, and THEY ARE IN EVERYTHING AND NO-THING. Knowledge from them can only be obtained through the deepest and most secret inner reaches of the heart. This is the quest of mankind - to find that place within the heart that is open and receptive to the wisdom of the Gods. Then he will truly know himself and his Maker, for there is no other way to God than through the silent, loving heart.
What was your spiritual mission on Earth? And what is your next mission after the Earth has taken its last breath?
I came to restore peace, harmony, and justice to a fallen kingdom which had been taken hostage by the evil of Kamsa, brother of my mother, Devaki. It was my quest to kill him and free my parents from prison. I was working within the microcosm representing all of Earth, for this kingdom of the Yadava Dynasty was a prototype and its fate would affect the unstable conditions of the entire physical world and restore it to balance. So you may say, in effect, that I came as the BRINGER OF PEACE AND FREEDOM to this world. There are many worlds to come after the Earth has gone to sleep, and all of them will need the ONE who restores peace, harmony, and freedom. That has always been WHO I AM.
Was it difficult to be a prince in court while you were enroute to spiritual mastership? Did this role interrupt your spiritual development?No, in fact, my social status was of great assistance to my mission on the great Earth, for it opened doors that would otherwise have remained closed. I had many advantages of wealth and privilege that could have been used for my own entertainment and indolent, self-serving purposes, but I used these privileges as SWORDS to fight injustice, tyranny, bondage, and spiritual darkness. Was I ever tempted by my royal circumstances? YES, many times; but in the end, I was able to stay in alignment with the Voice of God in my head and in harmony with the Music of the Spheres in my heart. I heard only the Echoes of Truth in the dead of the moonless night that reverberated throughout my entire Being; this I chose to follow upon rising in each new day. There was no other road with such resplendent Light as that of THE WAY OF TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS~ it was that road I chose to follow during my sojourn on Earth.
Immortalization of the Physical Body
This is an ancient secret that is contained within the Bhagavad Gita but it is hidden within the text. There is a word in that text that when one who is spiritually ready fixes upon it, a light will shine from the page and the secret will be revealed to that special one through their Third Eye ~ the eye will open and that one will KNOW.
This is not something relating to a healthy diet and mind; and this is not something for the common man to know. However, I can suggest that youthfulness can be prolonged through thoughts of love toward all and loving the self by treating the body as a sacred temple where only good is allowed to enter in thought, word, and deed. This is more important than diet and exercise because THOUGHT CREATES REALITY. Think, express, and BE LOVE ~ your body will reflect the beauty of your heart.
What happens to the Inner spiritual bodies - like the Astral, Causal, and Mental Bodies - when the Physical Body is being immortalized?
They are held in suspension ~ a state of suspended animation. It is much like freezing an organic substance or some other form of preservation where the organic life does not deteriorate. There is a spiritual method for "freezing" the Inner bodies when the Physical Body is being prepared for immortality, and this is performed by Ancient Ones whose task it is to oversee the Astral, Causal, Mental and Etheric Bodies of mankind, and keep them in a state of animation or preservation, as circumstances necessitate.
The Welding of Saint and WarriorI have never known of a saint who was not also a warrior because they share the same characteristics of bravery and devotion to a cause much larger than themselves. I don't know that a warrior is also a saint, but there have been quite a few in history that fought with such valor that they could have earned sainthood. But A SAINT IS ALWAYS A WARRIOR. Of that, let there be no doubt. Even the most gentle of saints as Francis of Assisi was a LION for the cause of the poor and destitute, and for those who suffered great illness. A saint always has something to FIGHT FOR. Always. Nothing ever comes easy to the one on the path of righteousness for the sake of God and all that is holy. The crown of thorns cuts deep into the heart of a saint, and though he carries no sword, he is ever fighting for those weaker and in need of guidance and protection.
Why are you considered a God and an associate of Vishnu in the Upanishad?
My body would illuminate subtly before the eyes of others and this inspired them to see me as a God and not as human. The range of my body vibration and the light thus illuminated created miracles upon those who were near me; for instance, those who were blind could see, and those who were lame could walk.
I also levitated during my contemplations and was capable of materializing my body at will. Many who followed me would see my physical form floating before them; I appeared in the lotus position as though sitting upon a cloud of light. In these visitations I was surrounded by the company of ancient rishis and angelic hosts who also appeared to my followers. I had the qualities of omniscience and omnipresence, for I knew all things and could be in all places at once. Talk of these miracles quickly spread among the population and I soon gained the reputation as, "The One Who Appears as the Light of God." They saw me as my true self, that of Vishnu, for VISHNU AND I ARE ONE AND THE SAME.
Why do some mystery schools see you as the full manifestation of Vishnu?
Some mystery schools see me as the full manifestation of Vishnu because of my powers of omniscience, omnipresence and omnipotence; the God-like powers of the Sublime One sent to Earth to fulfill the planet's destiny of salvation and deliverance from tyranny, destruction and chaos. I was able to manifest these powers to a great audience of souls who later formed some of the mystery schools in my name, Krishna, and that of my true self, Vishnu; for He and I are ONE and the same.
Why is there reference to you in so many faiths like Buddhism, Bhakti, Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Jainism and Vaishnava?I am what is considered to be a UNIVERSAL PRESENCE or manifestation of God that appears in all times and in all ways for I have been among you for all these centuries in many different guises. I have the ability to change my form according to the consciousness of those who perceive me, and so I have appeared as Light, as an old man, as a beautiful young woman, as a horse, as a flower, as the ocean; ad infinitum. My teachings cross many lines of faith for they are UNIVERSAL; and my presence adjusts to the individual consciousness of each soul who seeks truth in my name. Thus, I align with all spiritual paths, for I am the embodiment of TRUTH ITSELF.
What is the nature of your relationship with Radha and was it preordained before you came into the Physical Body in that lifetime?
Radha is the feminine aspect of my Self; she is the part of my Self who is closest to GOD ~ without her, I cannot fulfill my DESTINY. We are not "twin souls" ~ we are united as ONE. She is my longing for unity with Divine Love, and she is my fulfillment. For GOD has two faces; one female and one male, and together there is HOLY UNION and BALANCE. There has never been a GODMAN upon this Earth who has not had a spiritual "female consort. It has always been this way, from time immemorial, for no man can stand alone without the love, compassion, tenderness and fulfillment of his feminine counterpart. I know it is a human belief that GOD is male, but GOD is both male and female in essence and one cannot exist without the other. So it is and so it will always be.
Why did Krishna become so popular in the West and Eastern Europe?I am of the UNIVERSAL HEART and my words cross all barriers of language, culture and spiritual understanding. I can reach a peasant in Hungary, a king in France, and a president in America; for God's message knows no bounds. I have played my Flute like the Pied Piper, and those with the hearts to hear have simply followed my Song. It is the irresistible Song of Love that all men and women seek to follow ~ I have lead many souls to the harmonic SOUND CURRENT that my name and presence emits.
How can today's God seeker give devotional service, prayer, and commitment to God?
The Lotus of Eternal Love burns within the Third Eye of all those who wish to know God more deeply, so it is necessary to sit in meditation for a total of an hour each day, and contemplate on His Presence within the Lotus of the Third Eye. As life becomes more demanding of one's time, it is even more important now than ever before to make time for communion with the Beloved Father. There are no short-cuts and no magic incantations; all faithful souls must take the time and do the work within to see the results in the outside world. Any sincere prayer and offering to God is heard and received; simply BE in GOD'S PRESENCE. Go through your day with GOD in your heart and thoughts. You have only to utter HIS HOLY NAMES ~ Krishna, Vishnu, Jesus, Mohammed, Buddha ~ or sing the Mighty HU. Keep these words and use them like spiritual shields and swords in your fight to stay on the paths of righteousness and peace. Be a planter of peace; sing GOD'S NAME, and watch what glorious harvests you will reap!
This is a contemplative exercise that develops and eventually confers omniscience and Inner knowingness.
The Burning Lotus
This is a very ancient technique that precedes recorded history and goes back into the misty realms when the Masters of Old were forming this universe. The Lotus is one of the oldest spiritual symbols in evolution and existed long before the flower manifested on earth.
1. Make yourself comfortable in a sitting or lying position. If you can assume the "lotus position", this would be ideal, but is not necessary.
2. Breathe deeply and slowly, and say my name, "Krishna" three times.
3. Now, picture a lotus flower in your mind; place it in your Third Eye above and between your eyebrows. See its center as a burning white flame, infused with gold at its edges. When you look into the top of the lotus, see that the heart of the flame is a deep violet in color.
4. Gaze at this lotus until you feel at peace, and then utter my mantra aloud three times: “OM NAMO BHAGAVATE VASUDEVAYA.”
5. Then continue your contemplation of the lotus. There is nothing more to do. Simplicity holds the power of transformation in this exercise.
I release the powers of my blessings upon you, now and forever.
