Elevation to Krishna Consciousness — It has been calculated on the basis of archeological evidence that Krishna spoke Bhagavad-gita on the Battlefield of Kuruksetra more than five thousand years ago. So this Krishna consciousness movement, even from the historical point of view, is five thousand years old. Its philosophy is the oldest in the history of the world. If we wish to trace it even further back, we find that Sri Krishna spoke it earlier to the sun-god. Krishna is eternal, and consciousness of Krishna is also eternal. In this way Krishna consciousness should be approached. It should not simply be considered a theory.
