.... who is "Krsna"?
This existence did not come from a big bang.
The existence surrounding you is intelligent with a creative foundation.
It is not a random accident.
And you do not belong in this world of struggle and suffering because you are an eternal spiritual being.
These are the things every person should know.
But instead they are being taught that every perfect thing came from nothing.

Do you know Krsna?
We are all eternal spiritual beings and have loved Krsna before long ago / but because of maya (illusion) you have forgotten that you once loved Krsna and you are struggling and suffering in this temporary material world.
True spirituality will awaken this forgotten love you once had.
Firstly you must seek to embrace the higher knowledge of the Vedas and this shall raise your consciousness and remove ignorance.
And there are many other things you must do to reach the goal of self realization which shall enable you to remember and then rekindle your lost love for Krsna.
Persons who are sincere about Krsna Consciousness will devote their entire life to engaging in spirituality / and this can be done by becoming a member of the Krsna community.( as I have done)

False teachers encourage their followers to attempt to build equity with God with their own self righteousness words and deeds. Sadly, they hate Grace and pursue an empty manner of life, preferring separation from God in time and in Eternity. Distractions and denial are their forte.
And you got all that from this ?
For I say ...[text shortened]... you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:20 NKJV)
Got anything else?
Some supporting references for this :
Acceptable Righteousness is the issue. False teachers encourage their followers to attempt to build equity with God with their own self righteousness words and deeds.

If there is none then kindly say that. No one is going to laugh. 😀

You must become as pure as earthly possible and give up all material attraction to the things of the senses and you must become MASTER of the senses.
Why must you do this?
Because the sense are the chains that shall shackle you to this temporary world of death and keep you taking birth over and over and over again.

Are You referring to the Pope and the Catholic church?

We become indoctrinated into whatever bs our parents or guardians make us submit to. I believe it is possible to find good and right no what life has dealt you. Pretty sure that is called growing up.
I dare you to take these questions with seriousness. How would you survive a rotten father? How would you find a way to recognize an evil god? How may you come to make up your own mind by using logic and reason?
