Radhanath Swami on The Choice is Ours

Is Jesus a liar? Is Abraham a liar? Is Moses a liar? Is Prophet Mohammed a liar? They lived the most resplendent lives of pure integrity, as did their millions and millions of followers. Are they all in illusion? They are telling us that they are seeing God, they are feeling God, they are tasting God, and they are loving God. Whom to believe? Those taking sleeping pills, smoking cigarettes, addicted, and saying that there is no God, or those who are living the most pristine lives of compassion and sacrifice of love for all living beings without discrimination? And what to speak of the great saints of India, who spoke such deep philosophy and profound knowledge about the science of God consciousness. They presented not just some sentimental belief, but presented the truth and the existence of God in deep, sound, scientific, philosophical, and logical ways. It’s for each of us to decide.

  2. Surely, my decision is made. I believe in the words, deeds and actions of Jesus, Abraham, Moses, Prophet Mohammed and our very own Acharya's of the Vedic tradition, most recently being Srila Prabhupada and Radhanath Swami!

  3. Radhanath Swami has put forward a very strong, powerful & valid argument in favor of God's existence as an absolute truth.

  4. Any person with the slightest bit of intelligence and some control of his ego will not deny the existence of God.

  10. To believe the so-called materially, qualified, puffed-up scholars, or the sublime teachings of a saint like Radhanath Swami- the choice is for us to make

  12. Very correct. Everything is explicitly given by Radhanath Swami. God fulfills all the desires of all the people from time immemorial. It is individual choice. One can't fool himself. All glories to Radhanath Swami.
