Become a Perfect Goswami

If you want to regain your constitutional position of unlimited happiness, you must bring your senses under control because as long as you allow them to control you, you will remain subject to the fourfold miseries of birth, death, old age, and disease. Controlled senses means to engage the senses in the service of the master of the senses, Hrisikesha or Krishna. In other words be a goswami, the master of your senses, not a godasa, the slave of your senses. The easiest way to do is this is to constantly or as much as possible chant the Hare Krishna mantra. If you will seriously adopt this chanting process, you will quickly and easily become a perfect goswami.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:

Challenge: Why do You Lie?

Your efforts will not make the whole world Krishna Consciousness. You should know that in the Bhavisya Purana Krishna states that at the end of the Kali yuga He will be born as Kalki to destroy the the demons and bring in a new world order. Why do you tell people a lie that one day the world will be fully absorbed in Krishna consciousness?

Answer: We Simply Present the Vedic Version

I agree with you 100% that by our efforts the world will not become Krishna conscious. The world can be Krishnized only by the inconceivable mercy of the Supreme Lord. We are simply acting as His servants depending completely on His mercy for whatever will be the results of our humble attempt.

Kindly note that if a teacher presents something which appears wrong to us, we should submissively inquire from him for clarification before accusing him of being a liar. If we call a teacher who is accurately presenting the Vedic wisdom for the deliverance of the suffering humanity a liar, this is a great offense known as hati-mata, the mad elephant offense, and it brings a severe karmic reaction, which can completely destroy one's spiritual life. If we foolishly make the mistake of uttering or writing such words of criticism, to protect ourselves from the devastating reaction to such a offense, we should humbly bow down at the feet of the teacher contritely begging him to forgive us for our offense. In this way, if he forgives us, we will be released from the reaction to our offense.

We are very well aware of the accurate statements in the Vedic teachings regarding the appearance of the Kalki avatar at the end of the Kali yuga. At that time the entire human population will become so demoniac that there will be no solution other than killing them and bringing in a new pious age. This will happen 427,000 years from now.

What you are not aware of is that within this present degraded materialistic age of Kali there is a 10,000 era of spiritual enlightenment known as the Caitanya Era. This era began with the advent of Lord Caitanya in 1486. It is predicted in the Vedic wisdom that during this Caitanya Era the entire human population will become inundated with Krishna consciousness, even those who demoniac. The prediction is given as follows in the Sri Caitanya Caritamrita:

saj-jana, durjana, pangu, jada, andha-gana
prema-vanyaya dubaila jagatera jana

"The Krishna consciousness movement will inundate the entire world and drown everyone, whether one be a gentleman, a rogue or even lame, invalid or blind." CC Adi 7.26

I hope now that your understanding is now clarified and that you will do the needful as indicated above.
