Srila Prabhupadas Quotes on Lord Jesus Christ:
He is our guru. He is preaching God consciousness, so he is our spiritual master. Therefore we adore Lord Jesus Christ and offer our obeisances to him.
“Jesus Christ is accepted as the son of God. He presented himself as the son of God. And here Krishna says that ‘I am the Father.'” – Chaitanya Charitamrita lecture, 1968
“…is no difference between God and His servant. Yes. That we say…Because a devotee, like Lord Jesus Christ, means confidential servant of God, there is no difference…”

– Room conversation, London July 12, 1973
“Just like Lord Jesus Christ. So what was his fault? But the sura dvisam , the envious persons, killed him. And if we find, if we analyze, what is the fault of Jesus Christ. There is no fault. The only fault he was preaching about God. And still he’d find so many enemies. He was cruelly crucified.” – Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1972
“Jesus Christ was born without contact of any material father. He was divinely placed in the womb of Mary.”
—Morning Walk, Los Angeles June 8, 1976

“…In the Christian religion, Jesus Christ claimed to be the son of God and to be coming from the kingdom of God to reclaim conditioned souls. As followers of Bhagavad-gita , we admit this claim to be true. So basically there is no difference of opinion. In details there may be differences due to differences in culture…”

Devotee : “Prabhupada? Does Lord Jesus Christ appear in the
spiritual sky with the body he manifested on earth?”
Prabhupada : “Yes. Otherwise how there can be resurrection? Ordinary body cannot be resurrected. He appeared in his spiritual body, certainly…”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1969

— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1970
“…and you can develop so simply. You just hallow the name of the Lord. Jesus says, ‘hallowed be Thy name, my Father.’ And we are also hallowing the name of the Lord. We don’t even demand you say ‘Krishna.’ You can say ‘Jehovah.’ You can say ‘Yahweh.’ You can chant the names of God…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1972
“…Just like in Christian philosophy, they say, ‘The Father and the son, the same.’ Is it not? Yes. So similarly, here the Father and the son, or the spiritual master and God, they are the same, but at the same time not same. It is simultaneous…simultaneously one and different. I think Christian philosophy is like that. Christ, son, and God, Holy Ghost they are simultaneously one and different? Is that? So that is the position…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1972
“…As soon as you become God conscious, the demons will create disturbance. Just like Lord Jesus Christ. He was crucified by the demons. The only fault was that he was God conscious. Just see; such (an) innocent person…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1972
“Simultaneously one and different. Just like in the Bible also, Jesus Christ is claimed as one with God, but at the same time different. As son, he is different. As representative of God, he is one. That is the philosophy, perfect philosophy…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1972
“…They know that Christ is son of God. They have heard it. Now convince them that ‘Yes, there is no fighting between Christian or Krishnaite. One is worshipping the Father; one is worshipping the son. So there is no difference…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1975
“He is the Father. That’s all right. He identifies Himself as being the Father, and Christ identifying himself as the son, then were is the difference? There is no difference. Either you learn from the son or from the Father, the teaching will be the same…God and God’s son, they are one and different simultaneously…The son is born out of the body of the Father. So if the Father is spirit, the son is also spirit because the son is born out of the body of the Father…So Christ is God and not God simultaneously.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1975
“Krishna Consciousness movement on the basis of the Vedic literature, Vedic scriptures. Amongst these Vedic scriptures, we consider the Bible to be one. Lord Jesus Christ is teaching in the Bible, that ‘You love first God with your whole heart and soul, and then you love your neighbor as yourself…'”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1971
“They questioned, ‘What is your opinion of Lord Jesus Christ?’ and I said, ‘He preached God consciousness. He’s our guru .”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1974
“But Jesus never said that he is God. He said ‘son of God.’ We have no objection to chant the name, holy name of Jesus Christ. We have no objection. But we are preaching that ‘Chant the Holy Name of God.'”
—Room Conversation, London August 14, 1971
“Who will not respect Jesus Christ? He sacrificed everything for God, even his life. So who is that rascal that he’ll not respect to Jesus Christ? What did he do wrong to the human society? He did everything for the good of the human society. Oh, I have got very, very great respect for Lord Jesus Christ. Not only…Every, I mean to say, God conscious man, he must have respect for Jesus Christ. There is no doubt about it…”
—Room Conversation, Melbourne June 28, 1974
” Karunaya . This is Vaishnava’s qualification. He is very kind. Titiksava karunika . Just like Lord Jesus Christ. He was being crucified. Still, he was saying, ‘My Father, they do not know what they are doing.'”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1974
“Perhaps you have marked it in my preaching work that I love Lord Jesus Christ as God, as Krishna; because he rendered the greatest service to Krishna according to time, circumstances and society in which he appeared.”
—Letter to Kirtananda April 7, 1967
“You have asked to know what is the difference between Jesus Christ and Krishna. That we have several times explained in many meetings, that Krishna is God and Jesus Christ is the son of God. And as there is no difference between Father and son, so there is no difference between Krishna and Lord Jesus Christ, but still the son is never equal to the Father.”
—letter to Suchandra August 12, 1969
“So where do you find the difference? If Lord Jesus Christ says, ‘Through me,’ that means he’s the representative of God. So either through the representative of God or God…representative. Similarly, God has to be approached through God or through His representative. The same thing. Only the difference may be of understanding. Because Lord Jesus Christ spoke to a society that was not very much advanced. You can understand that such a great personality, God conscious person, was crucified. Just…
“Had they been intelligent, they would not have crucified such a great personality like Jesus Christ. So we have to understand what is the condition of the society…”
—lecture, 1968
“This is not to say that the Bible is nonsense. The Bible is the absolute truth. It is absolute truth that Lord Jesus Christ taught, but look at the people to whom he taught. They crucified him for teaching about God. He could not teach as great a depth.”
—lecture, 1968
“Lord Jesus Christ preaches love of God, we are also preaching the same thing, love of God. But our process is little different.

“…there is no contradiction between Jesus Christ’s description and our Vedic description. God is Supreme Father. That’s a fact.”
—lecture, 1972
“We are presenting Krishna before you, and you take it. Most of the Western country, they are Christian. So the Christians believe in Lord Jesus Christ as son of God. But we are presenting the Father, God Himself. So there is no contradiction. If there is son, there must be…”
—lecture, 1972
“…we can chant combinedly. Where is the difficulty? So those who are professing Christianity, never mind. You have god the name of God. Otherwise, why Jesus recommended that ‘You glorify the name of God’? That is chanting. So let us combinedly glorify the name of God. This is common platform.”
—lecture, 1974
“…when Lord Jesus Christ appeared, he was greatly aggrieved by the miserable conditions of the people. Regardless of the country or sect to which they belong, all Vaishnavas or devotees—any people who are God conscious or Krishna conscious—are thus compassionate.”
— Matchless Gifts , Chapter Two
“A devotee displays great compassion towards conditioned souls…A devotee is an ocean of mercy, and he naturally wants to distribute this mercy. Lord Jesus Christ, for instance, was God conscious, Krishna conscious, but he was not satisfied in keeping this knowledge within himself. Had he continued to live alone in God consciousness, he would not have met crucifixion. But no. Being a devotee and naturally compassionate, he also wanted to take care of others by making them God conscious. Although he was forbidden to preach God consciousness, he continued to do so at the risk of his own life. This is the nature of a devotee.”
— The Path of Perfection , Chapter 5
“Actually, one who is guided by Jesus Christ will certainly get liberation. But it is very hard to find a man who is actually being guided by Jesus Christ…violence is against the Bible’s injunctions. How can they kill if they are following the Bible?”
— Perfect Questions, Perfect Answers
“But that means Jesus Christ is transcendental, not of this material world …Jesus Christ is not part of material world…these rascals, they thought that ‘Jesus has a material body. Let us kill him.’ So Jesus Christ bewildered them more, to remain rascal, that they will continue to think that Jesus had a material body.
“That is their punishment. They remain always in darkness that Jesus had a material body …If Jesus Christ is son of God, he has…That means he has got spiritual body …So he could not be crucified.”
—Room Conversation, Paris June 15, 1974
“Now the principle religions of the world—Hindu religion, Muslim religion, Christian religion, and Buddha religion—most of them believe some supreme authority or personality coming down from the kingdom of God. Just like in your Christian religion Lord Jesus Christ, he claimed to be the son of God and coming from the kingdom of God to reclaim you. So this claim of Lord Jesus Christ, we admit.”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1966
“…accept the authorized bona fide spiritual master, acharya …You have to follow the footprints of acharya …Just like in your country, you are following the footprints of Lord Jesus Christ. Yes, that is the way. Or any acharya . Because the acharya , they come here to teach us about Krishna consciousness or God consciousness…”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1966
“So never be disappointed that because people are not responding. You see? There are many good examples. When Lord Jesus Christ also preached God consciousness, only a few followers were there, and still, he had to sacrifice his life. But he was never disappointed. That should be the attitude of a preacher. People may accept it or not accept it, we should go on. Because if Krishna is satisfied, if Krishna sees…’They are trying their best to preach,’ that is your reward. That’s all. People may accept or not accept, it doesn’t matter.”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1968
“…But devotees are so kind that taking all risk. Just like…Lord Jesus Christ took all risks. Therefore a devotee is more kind than God. A devotee is more merciful than God Himself. We should always remember this…devotees take the risks, even at the cost of life. Therefore, devotee is so dear to Krishna…”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1968
“…The process is very simple and easy because you can remain in your occupation, in whatever position you are. Simply you chant the holy name of God. Not only Hare Krishna. You can chant the holy name of God, Christ. Christ is also the same as Krishna. So do it. There is no expenditure, but the profit is very, very, great…”
— Bhagavad-gita lecture, 1969
“…the Christian religion is very nice—if simply people have spiritual guides who help them to follow it perfectly. So many people have asked me, ‘Do you value Christianity?’ ‘Yes,’ I say, ‘If you faithfully follow your Christian religion, you will become perfect.”

Mr. O’Grady : “…when you say ‘Krishna consciousness’ is there any difference between that and Christ consciousness?.”
Prabhupada : “No, there is no difference. Christ came to preach the message of God. If you actually become Christ conscious, you become Krishna conscious.”
— The Science of Self Realization
Ms. Nixon : “What is the difference between Krishna consciousness and Christ consciousness?”
Prabhupada : “Christ consciousness is also Krishna consciousness, but because at present people do not follow…the commandments of Jesus Christ—they do not come to the standard of God consciousness.”
— The Science of Self Realization
Mr. Robinson : “Can you tell me what you believe to be the meaning of life?
Why do we exist in the first place?”
Prabhupada : “The meaning of life is to enjoy. But now you are on a false platform of life, and therefore you are suffering instead of enjoying…But if you come to the real, , spiritual platform of life, then you’ll enjoy.”
— The Science of Self Realization
“…And similarly, in your Christian also, you worship Bible. So it is a fact that Lord Jesus Christ is present by his words, Bible. Similarly, Krishna is present by His words. These personalities, either God or son of God, who come from the transcendental world, they keep their transcendental identity without being contaminated by this material world…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1967
Tamal Krishna : “What is the relationship between Lord Krishna and Lord Jesus Christ?”
Prabhupada : “Oh, that you know…relationship if Father and son. But there is no difference between Father and son. Both of them are authorized. Just like your father and if you are a trustworthy son of your father, then the work done by your father and by you is the same…”
“We have no quarrel with Hindus and Muslims or Christians or Buddhists. But our objective is that religion means there is connection, relationship with God. Take, for example, Christian religion. They accept God…So the God consciousness is there. God is great, the God consciousness is there. Now these Christmas holidays you have began in your country…Why? Where it began? God consciousness. Lord Christ he came to give you God consciousness, and in his relationship these festivities are going on…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1968
“…That is the ultimate standard of knowledge, when one has fully surrendered unto Krishna, or God…like Lord Jesus Christ. He was fully surrendered unto God…he’s worshipped as good as God because he dedicated everything to God…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1969
“…Krishna and Krishna’s sons, or God or God’s sons. Now in the Bible, Lord Jesus Christ is described as the son of God. Now so far I have heard that, it is claimed that he is the only one son of God. Now how to adjust? If the Bible says that Lord Jesus Christ is the only one son, then how these, so many innumerable sons can be adjusted?
“There is adjustment. There is very nice adjustment. One should know it. He is the only one son means one who can sacrifice his life for God, he is real son. And one who is simply taking from Father, ‘Oh, God, give us our daily bread,’ and He is supplying (and the son) is eating and enjoying sense enjoyment, he is not real son. The real son is he who sacrifices his life for glorifying his Father.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1970
“…A Vaishnava, a devotee of the Lord, he always thinks of the fallen condition of general people. Just like in Christian philosophy they believe that Lord Jesus Christ suffered to be crucified by assimilating all the sinful activities of the people. Yes. A devotee of the Lord thinks like that…Lord Jesus Christ, that he agreed to suffer himself for the sins of all the people…”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1971
“If you love your neighbor as yourself, then why this ‘civilization’ which claims to be Christian, is slaughtering so many animals, and why they are constantly slaughtering each other in wars, in the streets? Jesus says you will not kill…and my spiritual master is giving love of God, he is giving love of God to the world.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1971
“…So they are manufacturing their own ways of understanding Bible and ethical principles. Therefore it is becoming valueless. It is becoming valueless. No value. One cannot change the words of the authority. If you believe in Lord Jesus Christ, you cannot make any change to your convenience. That is rascaldom. You cannot be a Christian if you violate the orders of Lord Jesus Christ. But they are doing so…Lord Jesus Christ says, ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ and you are killing, expert in killing. And you are still Christian? So you cannot understand what you have done? You have always misguided people.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1973
“…So the human law is imperfect always…There is partiality always, but in God’s law there is no such thing, partiality. Therefore, Christ says, that you shall love your neighbor.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1974
“…If you speculate to understand God, that is not possible. Then you go on and many, many years speculating. You will never understand God. Either you take the shelter of lord Jesus Christ or Krishna, if you follow his instruction—this is the way of understanding—then you will understand. But if you don’t care—for his instruction, then you will never understand. This is the process.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1975
“Yes, he is the only way. We also admit. Because he is the representative of God, so if you want to approach God, you must approach through His representative. That is His version. ‘I am the only representative of God,’ then you have to reach God through him, that is fact.”
—lecture, 1974
Professor Regamay : “But I am struck, that, for instance for the West the idea of a personal God is strongly rooted in our consciousness.
Prabhupada : “Yes. Lord Jesus Christ, he was Vaishnava. He directly gave you the idea of personal God. The personal God is the origin…”
Tamal Krishna : “What is the difference between a pure Christian, or at least a sincere one, and a sincere devotee of Krishna?”
Prabhupada : “No difference…There is no difference between a pure Christian and a sincere devotee of Krishna.”
“…So if you follow the footsteps of Lord Jesus Christ to preach God consciousness against godlessness and dedicate your life in that way, that will be the real purpose of following Jesus Christ. Lord Jesus Christ revealed that he was the son of God, and Krishna revealed that He is God Himself, the Supreme Father of all living entities. So if you dedicate your life to the service of Krishna, the Supreme Father, don’t you think that Lord Jesus Christ will be pleased with this?”
—letter to Suchandra August 12, 1969
“I sometimes remember that when I spoke in Portland there were many Christian people there, and they were very much favorable whenever we mentioned that we were also lovers of Christ. So you may preach in that way, that we are not canvassing for people to convert or criticize, we are canvassing people that they should simply utilize their time for loving God by engaging in His devotional service, either they are Christian, Catholic, Jew, whatever. We are after God, that’s all, we are servants of God. So preach like this, very simply, and hold sankirtan widely all over the city, and distribute prasadam profusely….”
—letter to Danavir February 8, 1972
“I think the Christian priests should cooperate with the Krishna consciousness movement. They should chant the name Christ…and should stop condoning the slaughter of animals. This program follows the teachings of the Bible, it is not my philosophy…
“Lord Jesus Christ exemplified this by teaching ‘Thou shalt not kill.’ But the Christians like to misinterpret this instruction. They think the animals have no soul, and therefore they think they can freely kill billions of innocent animals in the slaughterhouses. So although there are many persons who profess to be Christians, it would be very difficult to find one who strictly follows the instructions of Lord Jesus Christ.”
— The Science of Self Realization
“If one has become a lover of God, naturally he will be detached from material enjoyment. Love of God and love of the material world cannot go together. Lord Jesus Christ never advised going for economic development, for industrial development. He sacrificed everything for God. That is one test—‘Here is a lover of God.’ Lord Jesus Christ was punished. He was ordered, ‘Stop this preaching.’ But he did not. So that is love of God. He sacrificed everything. “The idea is that Lord Jesus Christ and his followers must both be, at least to some extent, at that point. That is the test. So we say that you follow any religious path. Which one doesn’t matter. We want to see whether you are a lover of God. That is our propaganda.”
“But Jesus Christ never said that he is God. He said ‘son of God.’ We have no objection to chanting the holy name of Jesus Christ. We are preaching, ‘Chant the holy name of God.’ If you haven’t got any name of God, then you can chant our conception of the name of God, Krishna. But we don’t say only Krishna…
“And it is such a simple thing. They don’t have to go to a church or temple. It doesn’t matter if they are in hell or heaven. In any condition they can chant the holy name of God…There is no charge, there is no fee, there is no loss. If there is some gain, why not try for it?…
“So what more do you want? Therefore let us cooperate. Don’t think that it is against Christianity or that it is sectarian. Let us cooperate fully. Jointly let us preach all over the world, ‘Chant the holy names of God.’ Let us join together. That should be the real purpose of devotees of God. My students are preaching love of God. Why should others be envious of them? We don’t say that you must chant Hare Krishna. If you have a name of God, chant it.”
—Room conversation, London August 14, 1971
“…servant of Krishna. So if anyone loves Krishna, then he must love Lord Jesus Christ also. And if one perfectly loves Jesus Christ, he must love Krishna. If he says, ‘Why shall I love Krishna/ I shall love Jesus Christ,’ then he has no knowledge. And if one says, ‘Why shall I love Jesus Christ? I shall love…’, then he has also no knowledge. If one understands Krishna, then he will understand Jesus Christ. If one understands Jesus Christ, you’ll understand Krishna.”
—Room conversation, Columbus May 12, 1969
“…Lord Jesus preached the message of God and I have taken up the same mission, and it would be good luck for me if I can follow the footprints of Lord Jesus who preached the message of God in spite of all persecution. Lord Jesus Christ is a living example how one has to suffer in this material world simply for the matter of preaching the message of God.”
—letter to Sally November 19, 1965
“Even those who are constantly engaged in sinful acts are all corrigible to the standard of perfect human beings if they take shelter of the devotees of the Lord. Jesus Christ and Hajrat Muhammad, two powerful devotees of the Lord, have done tremendous service on the behalf of the Lord on the surface of the globe. And from the version of Srila Sukadeva Gosvami, it appears that instead of running a godless civilization in the present context of the world situation, if the leadership of world affairs is entrusted to the devotees of the Lord, for which a worldwide organization under the name and style of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness has already been started, then by the grace of the Almighty Lord there can be a thorough change of heart in human beings all over the world, because the devotees of the Lord are able authorities to effect such a change by purifying the dust-worn minds of the people in general.”

Abhaya Charana Seva,so,the poisoners and book changers will not suffer for the sins they committed against Srila Prabhupada?
Abhaya Charana Seva,so,those who tortured Jesus and Srila Prabhupada don’t have to suffer the consequences of their actions? “The Spiritual Master may forgive you, but Krsna may not”. Repeat offenders are not to be forgiven by the Laws of Nature and the Higher authorities. Iskcon leaders and followers are still doing the same things and persisting in their denial of the Spiritual Master as the initiator Guru,and changing his instructions.
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur glorifies Lord Jesus Christ.
Here Srila Bhaktisiddhanta answers questions of Prof. Albert E Suthers of Ohio University.
His first question was “What is Vedantism”, and below is copy of part of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta’s reply. The full reply is posted at the end:
“…….The supporters of Savisesha-vada, the doctrine of eternity of personal Godhead, are known as Vaishnavas or theists. We shall call any persons of any country and any era as Vaishnavas or theists to the same extent that this Saviseshavada is found in them.
We think that the noble Jesus propagated Saviseshavada, as Acharyas Shri Visnuswami, Shri Ramanuja, Shri Madhva, Shri Nimbarka, etc., did in India. The Saviseshavada as propagated by all the teachers of the world, more or less, found perfection in the preachings of the different Indian Acharyas, which have attained the climax of mutual reconciliation of all souls of pure knowledge distinct from matter.
This Savisesha is the conclusion of Mahaprabhu Shri Krishna Chaitanya Dev, Who, though God Himself, played the part of a Supra-human Professor of the University of Nadia……”

FULL REPLY:
“– One-sided and biased critics may understand absolute monism by the term Indian Vedantism, but those who are impartial and who judge things from all angles of vision, find the transcendental personality of God-head as the settled conclusion of the Vedantic doctrine. The theory of non-distinction has been wrongly preached as propounded in the Vedanta, before a world which is averse to God, being disguised with the imperfect, partial and distorted conception of the Vedanta Philosophy of India which is the universal reality. In reality the doctrine of personality of God-head is the proper conclusion of the Vedanta and that is the true interpretation of the Vedanta by the unbiased learned scholars.
The unique and genuine interpretation of the Vedanta, as contained in the Shrimad Bhagavatam, points at the true Vedantic doctrine. Shri Vyasadeva, the compiler of the Vedanta-sutras, has himself as commentator elucidated the true meaning of the Sutras or aphorisms compiled by him, in the Shrimad Bhagavatam which reveals their intrinsic import which equalises all sides, reconciles all diversities and is beyond all sectarian conflicts created by various professors of empiric knowledge, who give different shapes to the Vedanta in their laboratories of mental researches. It is only they that secure the true Vedantic principles from the Shrimad Bhagavatam who can save themselves from the danger of falling into the ditches of various imaginary principles and wrong sectarianism.
To be brief, the difference between the followers of Mayavada, or absolute-monism and the Vaishnava Vedantics is that the former have a bias for the idea of Nirvisesha or non-distinction, whereas the latter accept the eternality of Personal God-head. The monists are atheists in disguise; on the other hand the Vaishnavas are sincere theists; the former are followers of the method of induction i.e. the process of reasoning from particular data to a general one, and the latter are followers of the deductive method of reasoning by which we arrive at the necessary consequences of admitted or established premises; i.e. a monist is inimical towards self-surrender to God, while a Vaishnava is inclined towards it. Most of the intelligentsia of the present day India are empiricists and as such, more or less, supporters of the Mayavada of the monists. Acharya Shankara has extensively propagated this Mayavada by dint of his exceeding intelligence and thus been able to captivate men’s minds.
The supporters of Savisesha-vada, the doctrine of eternity of personal Godhead, are known as Vaishnavas or theists. We shall call any persons of any country and any era as Vaishnavas or theists to the same extent that this Saviseshavada is found in them. We think that the noble Jesus propagated Saviseshavada, as Acharyas Shri Visnuswami, Shri Ramanuja, Shri Madhva, Shri Nimbarka, etc., did in India. The Saviseshavada as propagated by all the teachers of the world, more or less, found perfection in the preachings of the different Indian Acharyas, which have attained the climax of mutual reconciliation of all souls of pure knowledge distinct from matter. This Savisesha is the conclusion of Mahaprabhu Shri Krishna Chaitanya Dev, Who, though God Himself, played the part of a Supra-human Professor of the University of Nadia.”
All glories to our Grandfather spiritual preceptor, His Divine Grace Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur Srila Prabhupada, on this most auspicious day of his disappearance.
Yfs, Balaram das.
You can tell many things from these old paintings, such as this (Madonna and Christ) painting, but why does this “Madonna” have ginger hair? Why does “Jesus’ have ginger hair also? Ginger hair is a result of demonic parentage according to The Shastras. Ginger hair originates from Kazaria and is common among Kazarian Jews (Blue Turks). Is this why they call Kazarian Jews Blue Turks? In Australia anyway it is common to call gingers “bluey”. This “Madonna” is also wearing Medieval dress which is red in color, which suggests to me that this is Semiramis and Tammuz who are represented as the antithesis of the Madonna and Christ, a common theme of the Judaic/Babylonian Knights Templar (who were/are Crypto Jews) and only use the pretense of being ”Christian”.
These things are “hidden but in plain sight” or subliminal in nature and only register in the subconsciousness as is the modus-operandi of the Freemason Illuminati. This is very much exemplified in other paintings such as a more recent (end of 19th century) ‘Madonna of the Lilies’ by Bouguereau (view on the internet) which is a blatant ‘Semiramis and Tammuz’ Illuminati (perverted reflection) opposite, depicting “Jesus” with the left hand in the “sign of the claw” and the right hand the ”V sign” (horned sign of the Devil) which was spread and disseminated by Adam Weishaupt’s Bavarian Illuminati. The “Madonna” depicted in the same painting has BOTH HANDS clearly displaying the ‘sign of the claw’ (the two middle fingers stuck together) which make very clear the subliminal Freemason Illuminati depiction of Semiramis (The Whore of Babylon) and her incestuous evil son Tammuz (who was also crucified).
As the (Crypto-Jew) Satanic Freemason Illuminati have infiltrated, corrupted, and bastardized the Bible over 2000 years (and turned it into an organized pedophile ring) they are in the final stages of their planned destructive course. Christianity’s final death blow which is now being played out by the Cabbalists and Zionists through the internet is the ever-present ”message” that “JESUS CHRIST NEVER EXISTED!” and was the “INVENTION” of Arius Calpurnius Piso (a 1st Century Roman Senator) or Titus Flavius Josephus (who was a 1st Century) Jewish fighter at war with Rome! Or that even these two personalities were the SAME PERSON!, or that Jesus was just a “political troublemaker” and not a true representative of God! THIS IS THEIR PLAN AS HISTORY SHOWS……….BUT WE’RE FALLING FOR THE SAME TRICK AGAIN FOLKS!
Crypto Jew-Advaita who now says in public that Srila Prabhupada was just a ”hired hand” has planted another ”seed of destructing” within FISKCON as they slowly (like the frog slowly boiling without protest at the increasing heat of the water) purposely destroy FISKCON bit by bit! In a few centuries from now (perhaps sooner!) they will say that Srila Prabhupada “did not exist at all!” AND ALL OF THESE BOOKS ARE THE RESULT OF OTHERS SUCH AS JEWADVAITA AND CO. THIS IS THEIR REAL PLAN AS HISTORY HAS SHOWN!
Hare Krsna, Sudarsana Prabhu,
I would like to ask you please. Are your thoughts based on the book of Alexander Hislop: The Two Babilons?
Hare Krsna
Dandavat pranams Marici Das Prabhu. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
No Prabhu, I have not read any of the writings of Alexander Hislop including the book that you have mentioned.
Hare Krsna Sudarsana Prabhu,
Thank you. Many writers use his book as base source in this theme. One of them called-off his own successful book from booksellers because Alexander Hislop (1807-1882) did not utilized the sources properly in the issue of Tammuz-Semiramis- Nimrod . I asked because of this.

The “cult’ of Jesus Christ was created by the Jews to destroy any remaining existence of Apollonius (who was a leading follower of Vedic culture for Roman Empire)………….

That Jesus was a God in human form, and, therefore, a part of the Trinity, was not cooked up until 325 A.D. during the First Council of Nicaea The whole catholic world knows that the earliest instance of any artwork that illustrates Jesus on the cross was only after the eighth century.
The link above is part 3, so at the beginning of part 3 there are links to bring you to the first part….so best to start at the beginning! Quite a lot of information there.
Sudarsana Das, I am just curious to learn and know further that how did the First Council of Nicaea came up with the concept of crucification of the Lord after 325 A.D. ?
I find Ajit Vadakayuil information interesting but it lacks and limits the actual details when he writes on the real subject of Lord Jesus birth, death and his preaching in between. The same goes for Prophet Mohammed how these people, scholars cooked up and came with the concept of what has been written up in the Koran as well.
Mind you that a fact of the matter is both personality Lord Jesus and Prophet Mohammed did exist and preach the love of God according to the time, place and circumstances. Of this, there is no doubt.
I know that you are a resourceful person and are able to shed some light on these topics, if you have some time.
It is always good to hear from you Sudarsana Prabhu.
Hare Krishna. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All these posts are most wonderful and informative. All glories to Jesus the Christ.
Let us celebrate his life this day rather than the thoughts of how others should suffer for their misdeeds.
It is up to the Maha Bhagavat and Krsna as to whether their tormentors will be punished.
Thank you all.
His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada writes ;
“…Lord Jesus preached the message of God and I have taken up the same mission, and it would be good luck for me if I can follow the footprints of Lord Jesus who preached the message of God in spite of all persecution. Lord Jesus Christ is a living example how one has to suffer in this material world simply for the matter of preaching the message of God.”
—letter to Sally November 19, 1965
Further Srila Prabhupada says ;
“…servant of Krishna. So if anyone loves Krishna, then he must love Lord Jesus Christ also. And if one perfectly loves Jesus Christ, he must love Krishna. If he says, ‘Why shall I love Krishna/ I shall love Jesus Christ,’ then he has no knowledge. And if one says, ‘Why shall I love Jesus Christ? I shall love…’, then he has also no knowledge. If one understands Krishna, then he will understand Jesus Christ. If one understands Jesus Christ, you’ll understand Krishna.”
—Room conversation, Columbus May 12, 1969
The Vedas also say, ‘Don’t keep yourself in this darkness. ‘
Just get out of this. Come to the light.’ Tamasi ma jyotir gama. Just come to the light.
That is spiritual kingdom. So Kṛṣṇa comes to give you information of that spiritual kingdom, that ‘Life is like this.’ Just like Kṛṣṇa displayed at Vṛndāvana. Everyone is happy, enjoying. So He displays the spiritual life to attract you. So our business should be to be attracted by Him and prepare ourself to go back to Godhead, go back to home. Not that because Kṛṣṇa came here, He has left some instruction, we shall stick here. You must give up this idea. Kṛṣṇa gives you opportunity how you can live peacefully here. But that does not mean that you make your permanent settlement here. Then you are doomed. You take the advantage of Kṛṣṇa’s instruction and prepare yourself so that tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti: (BG 4.9) after leaving this body, no more coming here. Bas. You go. You are transferred to Kṛṣṇaloka. We should prepare in that way. That is the solution of problem. Otherwise, if you want to live in this material world, this nature is like that. Bhūtvā bhūtvā pralīyate (BG 8.19). It is manifested at a certain period, again it is destroyed. And there is destroying, I mean to say, process. So Kṛṣṇa comes, He sets right everything. But the nature of this world is like that. It becomes again deteriorated. Deteriorated.
NOTHING STAYS FRESH IN THIS WORLD. NO PERMANENT SETTLEMENT HERE.
So? Let us avail whatever allotted time we have at our disposal to have saṅkīrtana ;
” Govinda jaya jaya gopāla jaya jaya ….. to make our respective lives sublime and prepare to go back Home Back to Godhead before the journey of our life ends.”
N.B. ; The above narration is compiled from Srila Prabhupada’s VANI.
OM TAT SAT.
Hare Krishna. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krishna,lord Jesus Christ so called appearance day ki jay,the world can’t believe a such exalted saktya avesa avatar coming straight away from the spiritual sky walked on this planet, they said the same of mahatma Gandhi but that’s wrong I mean here is a real mahatma,many ordinary people depard from this world still through the false designation as already happened to many fake leaders who foolish people still worship them as pure devotees, that’s the main misconceptions I mean no everyone understood lord Jesus Christ, the misconception still keep going unfortunately around all over the world , outside and inside iskcon ,almost everywhere there are misunderstanding in this kali Yuga age, all glories to lord Jesus Christ agtacbsp, ys, haribol,
Pamho agtacbsp,LORD JESUS CHRIST said father forgive them because they don’t know what they are doing but the karma of the killing of a pure devotee don’t go out so easily i mean the demons always do persecution to the devotees and what to say about the murder of SAKTYA AVESHA AVATARA like HDG ACBSP AND JESUS CHRIST ?the jewish communities still got problems nowadays because of their offences to HDG JESUS CHRIST and is not the case that the second mondial war is been started by jewish who suffer very badly for what they done to HIS SON LORD JESUS CHRIST because SRI KRSNA BHAGAVAT can’t tolerate what ordinary people is doing to HIS different parts and parcel of HIS transcendental body so they deserve to be punish very severely for the harassment,exploiting…. to HIS devotees ,the Indian citizens in kali yuga are more degraded then yavana because they take advantage of the birth in india in the wrong way through misconceptions but SCM is with us in this golden age is not with the smarta brahmana fake astrologers fake mediums etc.. and they will suffer a lot the atrocities that they are still doing to the real hare krsna devotees who will get the power from KRSNA to win over their enemies through bhakti paresanu bhavo viraktir anyatra syat one can kill them through bhakti to SRI KRSNA then their VIDYA KULE KI KORIBE TAR is spoiled by spiritual racism between f-iskcon and ISKCON, material and spiritual world etc…most important thing is to keep serving SRI KRSNA and SRILA PRABHUPADA because SBSSTP used to say never given up you service to KRSNA even if the are unlimited harassment then one get promoted to the highest service to LORD HARI who takes away all the suffering from KAUNTEYA PRATIJANAHI NA ME BHAKTA PRANASATI the real bhakta.anyway KRSNA never forgive the demons by making them to take birth life after life in the most abominable planet.agtacbsp ys haribol
…..The Christmas Truce of 1914 demonstrates how the common belief of a Savior born in Bethlehem shared between enemies can make even the bitterest of enemies friends.
When the British heard the Germans sing a song about a little baby born in a stable, they joined in singing “Silent Night.”
It is astonishing how a song about a little newborn baby could move enemies to put down their weapons and embrace one another as friends.
When those on both sides of the trenches realized that the Christ they knew was also the Christ their adversary knew, what other response could there have been but to establish peace among brothers?
That is why this story is worth telling every Christmas. Christ came to bring peace and forgiveness of sins to a troubled world. The knowledge of Christ still brings liberty and peace to all who encounter Him.
The Christmas Truce of 1914 is a glowing testimony to the words spoken by an angel on that first Christmas so many years ago, “Peace on Earth, Good will toward all.” Merry Christmas to all! …

Now the Satanist bankers, industrialists (Kazarian Mafia Cabal) are at war with the people again but the genocide and property theft is through mass extermination by lethal injection, poisoning (GMO), radiation (4/5G) and weather manipulation (geoengineering).
“The Great Sinister Movement” which Srila Prabhupada has described to be in power has been the predominating world power for the last several hundred years is now at the point of collapse!
The many different faiths which have been infiltrated, hijacked and subverted by this great sinister movement (including ISKCON) are now breaking apart due to exposure by the faithful.
Their international fiat money system (WEF, BIS, World Bank etc) will completely collapse, very soon as most of the world moves to GOLD as the standard base currency.
Persons of faith are now in a global battle with the Satanic forces of “the great sinister movement” (who won’t go quietly) but are still pushing their “clot shot” agendas and geoengineered weather events.
I do think there is a lot of evidence that the Christian community (in their devotion to Christ) have become more inclined to Gnosticism as this lends itself more towards self enlightenment, reincarnation and meditation etc, and closer to the origins of Christianity. The destruction of the Satanic forces may take a few more years but there is mounting evidence that good will most most certainly triumph over evil!
Satanic false political doctrines, Masonic “educational” institutions, the Rockerfeller (allepathic) “medical” system, judicial system, and ‘fortune 500′ corporate controlled media will all have to be dismantled and reformed. Free energy, holistic medicine, organic and rural agriculture, and cow protection is a must for civilized society.
As in Russia, pornography, corrupting of minors with LGBTQ propaganda and GMO “rubbish food’ should be banned. Soft technology, ideas and inventions to promote well being and heath, fitness and wealth of general populace, which have been suppressed by KM Cabal for decades (such as those created by Tesla etc) be developed further for benefit and prosperity of mankind!
All of the Satanic Cabal’s agents who have poisoned, injured, lied and cheated, robbed, murdered, raped and tortured children and other innocents and caused mass restriction and suppression of the human spirit in mankind’s goal for freedom due to their psychopathic, deranged and evil worship of Molloch, be severely punished and imprisoned and their ‘proceeds of crime’ forfeited!
Well that will do for a start!
Pamho agtacbsp, the pure devotees of SRI KRSNA BHAGAVAT ARE ALWAYS PROTECTED BY THE DIVINE NATURE , even if one is not pure yet but got some pious activities from previous lives get the protection because krsna never forget who done a special service for HIM and don’t like to see ordinary people to mistreat HIS devotees like they demons done with devotees like HDG JC , of course they will pay all the karma even if saktya avesha avatar like ACBSP and JC forgave them, to steal the result of pious activities from a devotees is very karmic and they can’t escape to pay all the reaction for a such miserable action because everything is recorded in the body of SRI KRSNA.

We are currently in a war against the Pagans and Luciferians as the Godly are in the image of God, as we are all, in His the loving service. The Leaders of FISKCON and Gaudiya Math are predominantly
‘androgynous’, demigod worshipers (Pagans) as they are clones of the ‘androgynous’ Lucifer! THIS IS WHY THEY REFER TO THEMSELVES AS HINDUS! AND NOT VAISNAVAS!
Lord Jesus Christ preached of the one God and his mission (like Srila Prabhupada) was to destroy Paganism, so now we are in a final showdown for control of the world!
This doco below shows that this is a global struggle ie: GOOD VERSUS EVIL This is happening on a world political and military level, mostly unseen by the public and mainstream, but there has been a plan to bring down the Satanic Cabal which has infiltrated everything (including ISKCON).
Hinduism is Paganism! so we should remind ourselves that we have a commonality with those who are engaged in the worship of the (one) Supreme Lord be it Vaisnavas, Christian, Moslem, Judaism, etc etc and are opposed to Satanism, Luciferianism, Paganism, etc etc and their Communist, Nazi and Zionist affiliates who are attempting to murder and enslave us with their bio-weapons and propaganda!
This is a great doco! (must see!)

“…So they are manufacturing their own ways of understanding Bible and ethical principles. Therefore it is becoming valueless. It is becoming valueless. No value. One cannot change the words of the authority. If you believe in Lord Jesus Christ, you cannot make any change to your convenience. That is rascaldom. You cannot be a Christian if you violate the orders of Lord Jesus Christ. But they are doing so…Lord Jesus Christ says, ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ and you are killing, expert in killing. And you are still Christian? So you cannot understand what you have done? You have always misguided people.”
— Srimad Bhagavatam lecture, 1973

The monists are atheists in disguise; on the other hand the Vaishnavas are sincere theists; the former are followers of the method of induction i.e. the process of reasoning from particular data to a general one, and the latter are followers of the deductive method of reasoning..

If someone changes Śrīla Prabhupādas words and writings he is following the path of induction. This inductive process is violating the order of the authority Śrīla Prabhupāda and this is directly denying the orders of all our Saṃpradāya Ācāryas.
This just goes to show to what extent human beings will go to make a buck and get a free lunch. They sold their soul for a chapati and made Śrīla Prabhupādas ISKCON a retirement home for pseudos.
So much for following orders.
The Christmas festival is actually Pagan ritual of revelry, drunkenness, gluttony and sexual degradation known as Saturnalia as Jesus wasn’t born in December. Mary and Joseph were Kashmiri Brahmins who traveled to the middle east, so when the three kings came to bring frankincense this substance comes from mountains of Kashmir, where the tomb of Jesus is situated called Rosa Bal (Srinigar, Kashmir).
Roman Emperor Julian (Julianus Flavious Claudious, Lulianus) was said to be the ‘last Pagan Roman emperor’ but Catholocism (and some other offshoots) have retained all of the Pagan symbolism, festival dates, and ritualistic practices (such as Easter etc) as these correspond with Pagan festivals to this very day.
Pagan Julian made every attempt to subvert and discredit Christianity and made a pact with the Jews to try accomplish this very goal and this ‘duo’ (Paganism and Jewish Mysticism) have been involved in not only ‘subverting religions BUT ALSO INVENTING SO MANY BOGUS RELIGIONS SUCH AS MORMONISM, EVANGELISM, MOONIES ETC Look at how they embrace Hinduism within ISKCON which is mixed with Kabbalist doctrine of ” necessity for a living Rabbi (guru) “, ALL CONTAMINATED RUBBISH!
Both Jesus and Srila Prabhupada faced very similar difficulties, dangers and opposition as they were both representatives of the Supreme Lord, but this world is contaminated by Paganism and Kabbalist demons who just disguise themselves as saintly, but their plan is to harvest souls and direct them to hell! The Freemason Kabbalist, Pagan alliance should be obvious to anyone who isn’t blind or stupid!

Jesus In Kashmir (Documentary by Indian Govt) 0.53 minutes from 12 years ago.
Just came across this one (some of you have probably seen it). There are, agreed, many murky points when the Indian government makes a film about Jesus. Nevertheless this government documentary has some interesting archeological and scenic photo material of Kashmir, Ladakh etc.
One murky point comes to mind:
Śrīla Prabhupāda mentioned in one lecture that (during the partition of India in 1947) the British made the bread basket of India, Punjab, into Pakistan and the sugar bowl of India into Bangladesh. This was to destroy and hamper India’s progress (if I can’t have it neither can you) and set it back 100 years.
Kashmir has a land area of 101.000 square km. That is a little more than Austria or roughly half of Queensland, Australia. Pakistan has 800.000 square km and Bangladesh has 150.000 square km. Full of wheat and sugar. Kashmir has nothing, in comparison. Why independence for Kashmir?
Yes, Yes, Yes….religious conflicts…geopolitical…..blablabla….a speck of dust on the global map…If we look between the folds, why is the government of India not actively preserving this location? Why is the government of Kashmir not actively preserving this location? Why are tourists hindered to visit Kashmir for the last 50 years or so? A militarised zone, Sperrgebiet? There is another such area in India, namely Dvārakā “don’t mention it, ignore it and in course of time it will be forgotten”.
Does it not sound like a great idea to create one small country and than destroy it by creating conflict, to save what? A good story?
Just my two cents
Yes, Kaliyuga is a sorry state of affairs; one example on how to hide the truth to protect a house of cards.
1/ “SEVENTY-FIVE” (one generation)
Seal the Kennedy Papers for 75 years.
Seal the Pfizer Papers for 75 years.
Seal Kashmir for 75 years (1947-___)
2/ Demolish, if not possible, build a TV Transmitter Station on top and a Highway besides to seal the tomb (27.09 photo of Mary’s tomb in Murree/Punjab, Pakistan, on the outskirts of the Islamabad-Rawalpindi-metropolitan area).

3/ ignore, destroy, change, suppress, confuse, deny and lie………
It’s rigged up and down from Monday to Sunday to hold on to their chiefdoms and material gains, which are destructible, as life’s all in all.
Modi has been filmed scuba diving in the sea covered Dwarka city and this has been shown on Indian media against underwater statues and large stone blocks etc. This is more of a clever political move as FTM Freemason Modi is a big fan of Freemason, fake, Rothschilds puppet FTM Vivekananda.
These sort of programs by the BJP and Modi are sure to translate into votes on election day! as this really ‘pushes a button’ in the psyche of the average Indian and although a better option than the ”secular” Communist motivations of the Congress Party still falls quite short of pure devotion, rather putting this within the category of the ‘mode of passion!’
Pamho agtacbsp, the stink and disgusting huge toilet of the material world born from the refusal to serve SSGG is not for the pure devotees of the Lord neither for a gentleman because everything is polluted in this material world but by fortune the karma is not eternal therefore this bad dream will be over as soon as we become conscious of SSGG by keeping chanting by ignoring whoever is against us.SRI KRSNA TOOK BACK LORD JESUS AS HE DONE FOR SRILA PRABHUPADA BECAUSE THIS MATERIAL WORLD IS NOT FOR PURE DEVOTEES….AGTACBSP YS HARIBOL
