An atheist (non believer in GOD) professor of

Philosophy speaks to his Class on the problem

science has with Krishna. He asks one of his

new students to stand and.....

 

 

Prof: You are a Krishna devotee, aren't you, son?

Student: Yes, sir.

 

Prof: So you believe in God?

Student: Absolutely, sir.

 

Prof: Is God good?

Student: Sure.

 

Prof: Is God all-powerful?

Student: Yes.

 

Prof: My brother died of cancer even

though he prayed to Krishna to heal him.

Most of us would attempt to help others

who are ill. But Krishna didn't. How is

this Krishna good then? Hmm?

 

(The student is silent.)

 

Prof: You can't answer, can you?

Let's start again, young fella.

Is God good?

Student: Yes.

 

Prof: Is Satan good?

Student: No.!

 

Prof: Where does Satan come from?

Student: From...God...

 

Prof: That's right. Tell me son,

is there evil in this world?

Student: Yes.

 

Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it?

And God did make everything. Correct?

Student: Yes.

 

Prof: So who created evil?

(The student does not answer.)

 

Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality?

Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible

things exist in the world, don't they?

Student: Yes, sir.

 

Prof: So, who created them?

(The student has no answer.)

 

Prof: Tell me, son. Do you believe in Krishna?

Student: Yes, professor, I do.

 

Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you

use to identify and observe the world around

you. Have you ever seen Krishna?

Student: No, sir.

 

Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your Krishna?

Student: No, sir.

 

Prof: Have you ever felt your Krishna, tasted your

Krishna, smelt your Krishna? Have you ever had any

sensory perception of Krishna or God for that matter?

Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.

 

Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student: Yes.

 

Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable

protocol, science says your Krishna doesn't exist.

What do you say to that, son?

Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.

Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.

 

Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Prof: Yes.

 

Student: And is there such a thing as cold?

Prof: Yes.

Student: No sir. There isn't.

 

(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn

of events.)

 

Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more

heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat

or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold.

We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no

heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is

no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to

describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold.

Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat,

sir, just the absence of it.

 

(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

 

Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such

a thing as darkness?

Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?

 

Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the

absence of something. You can have low light, normal

light, bright light, flashing light.....But if you

have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's

called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness

isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness

darker, wouldn't you?

Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?

 

Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise

is flawed.

Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?

 

Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of

duality. You argue there is life and then there is

death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the

concept of God as something finite, something we can

measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought.

It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen,

much less fully understood either one. To view death

as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact

that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of

it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students

that they evolved from a monkey?

Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary

process, yes, of course, I do.

 

Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your

own eyes, sir?

Prof: No.

 

Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of

evolution at work and cannot even prove that this

process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching

your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a

preacher?

 

(The class is in uproar.)

 

Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever

seen the Professor's brain?

 

(The class breaks out into laughter.)

 

Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the

Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it?.....

No one appears to have done so. So, according to the

established rules of empirical, stable,

demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no

brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then

trust your lectures, sir?

 

(The room is silent. The professor stares at the

student, his face unfathomable.)

 

Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.

 

Student: That is it sir.. The link between man & god

is FAITH.

 

**As you go through your Kundalini experiences please note

that even though " it " cannot be proven your Kundalini

activations and awakenings are as real as the ground you

stand upon. Evolution is viewable and can be and

is being experienced in real time, ask anyone with an awakened

kundalini. As there are not yet mechanical instruments to

prove this we can rely on the most sensitive instrument we

have - our bodies and our feelings.**
