  Chaitanya Mahaprabhu appeared as a devotee of Krishna in Mayapur, West Bengal, India in the late fifteenth century. He introduced sankirtan, widespread congregational chanting of the Supreme Person’s names, as the most effective means by which anyone can achieve spiritual perfection. By His influence, many of India’s leading religious scholars and their followers became devotees of Krishna themselves. 
   
  In His youth, Mahaprabhu started a Sanskrit academy in Navadvipa—one of India’s top centers of learning at the time—and earned a reputation as an excellent scholar. But at age twenty-four he renounced everything to travel the subcontinent encouraging everyone he met to chant the Hare Krishna mantra. 
   
  He is considered by disciples, scholars and followers to be the latest avatar of Krishna Himself, based on extensive evidence found in Vedic literature. The International Society for Krishna Consciousness, ISKCON, is a continuation of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s sankirtan movement. 
    
  Chaitanya's humble, saintly demeanor and knowledge of Vedic conclusions persuaded prominent impersonalists that Krishna consciousness, worship of the Supreme Person, is life’s highest purpose. On Mahaprabhu’s instruction, the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan made a thorough analysis of the Vedas to show that Krishna bhakti, devotional service to Lord Krishna, is the essence of all Vedic teachings. Mahaprabhu’s extensive conversations with His devotees such as Ramananda Raya and Sanatana Goswami form the philosophical and scriptural basis of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, or Krishna consciousness. 
   
  Chaitanya himself left only eight written verses, the Siksastaka, in which he teaches that chanting God’s names is the most simple and sublime spiritual practice for everyone, everywhere. He also showed such extraordinary symptoms of love of God that great scholars among His devotees, including the Six Goswamis

  "Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. It is the source of one of Emerson's most famous quotations: "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. 
  Emerson focuses on seemingly insignificant details explaining how life is "learning and forgetting and learning again".

  Mindless War

  This audiobook is an update to Reality Prism: A Raven Thriller, released by Flamingo Audiobooks. The focus of our book is to describe and explain the myriad of attacks on our Western Culture in general and the United States as the key target and last bastion of freedom. Mind War is the use of sophisticated deception to deceive an enemy, and to plant false images in his mind to allow advantage. It is a military tactic.Mindless War is a phrase that we’ve coined to describe the methods and controls being used destructively by Globalists, the New World Order, China, the Radical Left, and others, to replace the “old order” of countries, independent nation states, with a world of total control by independent, unaccountable elites. Groups like the World Economic Forum and the UN have been working on this for decades.Yes, this is the “Great Reset.” The goals are documented in UN Agenda 2030, and other such documents. That is the subject of our book Reality Prism. The goal of Mind War is to instill fear in a society! “Fear is the Mind Killer.” It drives the loss of judgment. False reality can be used to cause insane, self-destructive behavior.In the past, genocides and tyranny came from force. As Mao demonstrated, “From the barrel of a gun.” Or, as Hitler showed, from military conquest and death camps. Mind War is a much more effective tactic.Recent events show its success in getting Americans to surrender our notions of exceptionalism and all men (and women) of being equal. Our God-Given Freedoms—from the right to assemble, free speech, fair trials, innocent until proven guilty, honest elections, freedom of worship, the rule of law, and, of course, at the end, the right to bear arms—are all slipping away.
