Talk:Gaudiya Vaishnavism

The following text was removed from the Krishna article; it would be better placed here somewhere -

Krishna is revered as the Supreme Personality of Godhead by devotees, not just as a demigod, but as the primal eternal force. Thus many believe that Hinduism in fact is a monotheist religion, since all other gods and demigods are seen as expansions of Krishna. Devotees believe that by worshiping Krishna with determination and faith, "Engage your mind in always thinking of Me, become My devotee, offer obeisances to Me. Being completely absorbed in Me, surely you will come to Me" (Krishna tells Arjuna during the Kurushetra war- Bagavadgita), one is able to transcend the contaminating materialistic influences of life and finally attain moksha (freedom from the eternal cycle of birth and death). This is the essence of the Vedas and other Hindu spiritual texts.

This sounds like it was cut and pasted from one of Prabhupada's books. Runa

Gaudiya Math

Let's try to keep this article an article on the entire Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition, there is a separate entry for Gaudiya Math. If you haven't researched the historical issues discussed, please don't go reverting or changing what I've written, discuss first here. Raga 10:59, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tagged for rewrite

I tagged the article for re-write. It's a mess. It has no comprehensible structure. Raga 11:42, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Organization listings

"SKCM of BV Puri duplicated, already listed under Gaudiya Math"

So is ISKCON. Yet your edit included ISKCON, as well. Siyavash 12:32, 18 May 2006 (UTC) Ah, the subheader within this article, I thought you meant the seperate article. No big deal. Siyavash 12:41, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
