A
- A female child - by evolution, means when she gets another body, youthful body, her consciousness is different. If you get the body of a pig, your consciousness is different from the consciousness of a man
- A sisya, a disciple, comes to the guru for enlightenment. Everyone is born foolish. Everyone. Even the human being, because they are coming from the animal kingdom by evolution, so the birth is the same, ignorance, like animal
- According to nature's arrangement, living entities lower on the evolutionary scale do not eat or collect more than necessary. Consequently in the animal kingdom there is generally no economic problem or scarcity of necessities
- According to the foolish Darwinian theory of the anthropologists, it is said that forty thousand years ago Homo sapiens had not appeared on this planet because the process of evolution had not reached that point
- Actually it is a fact that this life is meant for preparation for the next life; by evolution one has come through many species, or forms, and this human form of life is an opportunity to promote oneself to a better life
- Although Westerners accept that Darwin first expounded the doctrine of evolution, the science of anthropology is not new. The development of the evolutionary process was known long before from the Bhagavatam
- As the water dries up, then they (fish) come out as grass, as vegetables. Then grow, different types of trees, plants, creepers. Then gradually develops to become insects, flies. Then develops to serpents. In this way, this is evolution
- At present Darwin's theory of the evolution of organic matter is very prominent in institutions of higher learning
B
- Behind the material laws or nature's laws and behind the growth, maintenance, production and evolution of all the planetary systems - behind everything - is the Lord's direction
- Biological evolution is taking place on account of the soul's desire
- Biological evolution is taking place on account of the soul's desire. It takes place because of infection
- Biology, you can teach them the evolution of the species from Padma-Purana, 8,400,000's, one after another. Yes
- By evolution in spiritual life, he comes to the understanding of the Supreme Lord, or the Supreme Soul. When one develops his relationship with Him and executes devotional service, that stage of life is called Krsna consciousness, the ananda-maya stage
- By evolution, we come to this human form of body, and in this human form of body, we have got the chance to develop Krsna consciousness
- By interactions of the air and the sensations of touch, one receives different forms according to destiny. By evolution of such forms, there is fire, and the eye sees different forms in color
D
- Darwin expresses the opinion that the species are evolving from lower forms of life, but this is not the whole truth. The soul may progress from lower forms to higher forms, but in the beginning of creation all species were created by Sri Krsna
- Darwin has described the idea of evolution from the Vedas in his own way
- Darwin has taken the idea of evolution from this Padma Purana. You won't find any philosophy, any doctrine in the world which is not found in the Vedic literature
- Darwin's theory of evolution from animal to man is incomplete because the theory does not present the reverse condition, namely evolution from man to animal
- Darwin's theory of the evolution of organic matter is very prominent in the institutions of learning. But the Bhagavata Purana and other authoritative scriptures of scientific magnitude describe how the living entities in different forms of body evolve
- Darwin's theory that life is made possible by chemical evolution is not correct. They are missing the soul. That is their mistake. They are simply observing the material cover. That is the basic mistake of modern civilization
- Darwin's theory: by evolution you come to the human form of life. Accepting that from monkey one becomes a human being, so what is after this form? That they have no information
- Dormant divine consciousness of the living entity is developed in the human being by natural evolution but it is sometimes snubbed down by artificial force on account of too much desire to Lord it over the material nature
- Durlabham means very rarely obtained. Our modern anthropologists, they also admit it, that after many evolution of different species of life, this human form of life is obtained. But they do not know what it is meant for
E
- Either there is soul or not soul, just like Darwin's theory, evolution of material body is going on. One body is created and the same body again annihilated, another body created, the same body annihilated, and it is going on. You cannot stop this process
- Everyone is born foolish. Everyone. Even the human beings, because they are coming from the animal kingdom by evolution, so the birth is the same, ignorance, like animals. Therefore, even though one is human being, he requires education
- Everyone is in ignorance because the evolution is coming from the lower species of life, and in Western countries the Darwin's theory of evolution is very prominent, and they believe that man is coming from monkey
- Evolution has been very well explained on the strength of Vedic authority
- Evolution means developed consciousness, and according to the developed consciousness, one gets a particular type of body. This is nature's law
- Evolution means to come to that end, Krsna consciousness. That is real evolution. If one misses the chance, then again falls down
- Evolution means to transmigrate from one body to another. But there is no such thing. Everyone is eternal. There is no death, there is no transmigration. This is botheration
- Evolution takes place in the lower species of life, nature's law. But when you come to the human form of life you have got your responsibility. Wherever you want, you can go
- Evolution, many births. Therefore this life is meant for rectifying all mistakes that we had committed in our previous lives or in this life
F
- For materialistic anthropologists speculating on the evolution of the body, a person like Darwin is a mahajana
- From the evolutionary point of view, perfection is reached when the living entity attains the platform of a brahmana
- From these (aquatics), insects and reptiles evolve, and from them birds, beasts and then human beings and finally civilized human beings. Now, the civilized human being is at a junction where he can make further evolutionary progress in spiritual life
G
- Gradual process of evolution means one must come to the platform of understanding Brahman. Aham brahmasmi: "I am spirit soul, and I am part and parcel of the Supreme Soul." This understanding one must come
- Gradually, by evolution, we come to this form of human life. Especially the Aryans, the advanced, civilized human being, he has got all the facilities. The uncivilized men live in the jungle, and they cannot utilize the resources
H
- He (Bhrgu) explained how the air in the stomach works and regulates the intestines. As a great philosopher, he logically established the eternity of the living entity. He was a great anthropologist the theory of evolution was long ago explained by him
- He (Darwin) does not know. He has caught up some words from this Padma Purana and tried to give his own invention. The evolution is already there
- How can these superior powers control the evolutionary process of the living entity if they are not free from all imperfection? The followers of the Vedic instructions can't accept the Darwinian theory of evolution for it is marred by imperfect knowledge
I
- If it is actually evolutionary, then why there is dharmasya glanir? Tadatmanam srjamy aham: "As soon as there is discrepancies in the discharge of real duties, I appear." So it is natural
- In any case, the material bodies of all animals and men are foreign to the living entity. They change according to the living entity's desire for sense gratification. In the cycle of evolution, the living entity changes bodies one after another
- In Darwin's theory there is no acceptance of the living entity as spirit soul, and therefore his explanation of evolution is incomplete
- In the course of time, when the subtle forms are transformed into gross forms, they become the objects of touch. The objects of touch and the tactile sense also develop after this evolution in time
- In the Padma Purana the evolution theory is described. That is taken away by Darwin, and in a perverted way he has described Darwin's theory of evolution; but that is not very scientific, although it is going on as scientific. But evolution theory is fact
- It (evolution) is not a new idea, but educators are giving stress only to Darwin's theory, although in Vedic literature we have immense information of the living conditions in this material world
- It is true that the material body develops only by the desire of the living entity. The evolution of the material body is due to the desires of the living being
O
- One has to transmigrate from lower species of life, aquatic life, to trees; from trees to insect; insect to birds; birds to beasts; and from beasts, that is evolution. That evolution is not Darwin's evolution. That evolution, it is called janmanta vada
- Our point is all the species of life, they are existing simultaneously. Evolution there is, we accept that but it is not that one is missing, one has gone away, and another is come
S
- Sadhana means the activity by which we can attain, we can achieve that goal of life. This is called sadhya-sadhana. The Darwin theory, although they are giving some idea of progressive evolution, but he does not know what is the goal of life
- Since the living entities are never annihilated, they simply transmigrate from one life form to another. Thus there is an evolution of forms according to the degree of developed consciousness
- So evolution you take that this apartment is better than that apartment, that apartment better than, and a living entity's going from one after another. So this is evolution
- So many scriptures are there, so many teachers are there, so many rules and regulations are there. They are not meant for the animals, because they cannot be purified. They must have to come to this position by evolution of human being
- Sometimes he (Bhrgu) instructed Bharadvaja Muni about astronomical evolution, and he is the author of the great Bhrgu-samhita, the great astrological calculation
- Sometimes he (Bhrgu) instructed Bharadvaja Muni about astronomical evolution, and he is the author of the great Bhrgu-samhita, the great astrological calculation. He explained how air, fire, water and earth are generated from ether
T
- Tangibility is the proof of form. In actuality, objects are perceived in two different ways. They are either soft or hard, cold or hot, etc. This tangible action of the tactile sense is the result of the evolution of air, which is produced from the sky
- The aim of life should be to make a sincere effort to go "Back to Godhead'' but contrary to this, the tendency is to go back to hell or in the cycle of evolutionary animal life as it is described in the 16th chapter of Bhagavad-gita
- The anthropologists say that 40,000 years ago Homo sapiens had not appeared on this planet because evolution had not reached that point
- The body is undergoing evolution, not the soul. Just like if I come to the USA from India, I have to change my residence. I personally do not have to change, but my residence changes
- The Darwin's theory is that there was no civilized man, but gradually it has developed. It is not very clearly explained; he does not know what is the evolution
- The Darwin's theory of evolution is little idea. It is theory; it is not a fact. But actual fact is, as it is stated, dehantara-praptir. The soul is one, but it is transmigrating from one body to another. This is the fact
- The Darwin's theory of evolution, there is some idea, but it is not clear, not scientific. They are trying to prove that it is scientific. That is not scientific
- The evolution is accepted in the Vedic literature but not like Darwin's. The evolution, according to Vedic scripture, is that the living entity is different from the body, and the living entity is passing through many forms of body
- The evolution should be of the consciousness. And this is Krsna consciousness. When you come to Krsna consciousness, then your life is perfect. And fully Krsna conscious, then you, after giving up this body - no more material body
- The followers of the Vedic instructions cannot accept the Darwinian theory of evolution, for it is marred by imperfect knowledge
- The living being undergoes many changes of body through many lives, but the Supersoul is always with him and remembers all his activities, despite his evolution through different bodies
- The living entity's evolution through different types of bodies is conducted automatically by the laws of nature in bodies other than those of human beings
- The Lord appears in different incarnations - as a fish, tortoise and boar, as Parasurama, Lord Rama, Buddha and so on - to reciprocate the different appreciations of living entities in different stages of evolution
- The mystic path is a transcendental evolution in which all the above stages (work with transcendental results etc.) are part of the gradual process of spiritual development. It is necessary to mention all the above stages to understand the final stage
- The nature brings you from the aquatics, I was just stating, from the fish life, to plant life, to vegetable life, to . . . in this way 2,000,000's forms, gradually. This is called evolution - one after another
- The nonsensical Darwinian theory of evolution is not applicable here. It is not that intelligent human beings did not exist millions of years ago
- The quality of sense perception is also evolutionary, namely generated from sound, then touch, and from touch to form. Taste and odor are also generated along with the gradual development of sky, air, fire, water and earth
- The soul is there in every living entity, but according to the development of the body, evolution of the body, the intelligence becomes manifest
- The theory that "in such and such era the human life began" is wrong if they accept parallel evolution
- The whole bhakti-yoga process is therefore a revival of the lost relation. This revival is possible in the human form of life, which is obtained only out of the evolutionary cycle of 8,400,000 species of life
- The whole different grades of evolution of life means purifying the existence
- There are so many varieties of living entities. Gradually, by evolution, we come to the human form of life, when our consciousness is developed. We can understand higher knowledge. And that is called Veda
- There is information given in the Padma Purana and other authoritative scriptures of the living entities' spiritual evolution from one bodily form to another
- There is no evolution. Evolution is there in the matter of consciousness. Just like a child: his consciousness is not developed. A child goes to capture a fire because his consciousness is not developed
- They (modern scientists) are studying evolution of this matter, organic matter. But actually that is not the fact. The fact is that we, individual soul, that is the real fact
- They cannot understand that without spiritual touch, there cannot be any creation. That is their poor fund of knowledge. The Darwin's theory, development, process of evolution, they are childish
- They forget completely that one day their small life spans will be finished and they will be degraded in the evolutionary cycle
- This human form of life is achieved after a evolutionary process, going through different species of life. This is the opportunity to understand your spiritual identity and your relationship with God
- This present rascal civilization does not know that how with great difficulty we have come to this human form of life after so many evolutions
W
- We are always under three kinds of miseries, but sometimes one is slackened, other is greater, in this way, but we are always under miserable condition. When a sane man comes to this understanding, he is eligible for spiritual evolution
- We can stop this process of repeated change through birth and death. We can get our actual spiritual form again and be blissful, full of knowledge and eternal life. That is the purpose of evolution. We should not miss this
- We do not accept Darwin's rascal theory of evolution from lower-grade life, in the creation everything is there. All the 8,400,000 species. According to the past karma, everyone comes out again, gets a different type of body and begins his work
- We had to pass through animal bodies. By evolution, we have come to this human form of body. Now it is an opportunity to get out of this cycle of birth and death. This is our real problem
- We have to become dhira. We have been adhira in so many different forms of life, because I am coming to this human form of life after evolution of 8,000,000 forms of body. Jalaja nava-laksani sthavara laksa vimsati (Padma Purana). That is evolution
- We must understand that this human body has developed after millions and millions of years of evolution and that in itself it is a chance to get out of the cycle of birth and death in which over eight millions species of life evolve
- We should consider what was the religion of the world 2,600 years ago because modern history cannot place before you any chronological list of religious evolution within 2,600 years
- We, or I, the spirit soul, being carried by the subtle body, and the nature is giving me another gross body. In this way we are transmigrating from one body to another. This is called evolution
- Whatever the cause may be, Radharani said, that affection between You and Me has mixed Us in oneness. Now that it is the time of separation, I cannot see the history of the evolution of this love
- When one comes to the human form of life through natural evolution, one must then take the responsibility for further progress. As stated in Bhagavad-gita (BG 9.25), yanti deva-vrata devan: one who worships the demigods can be promoted to their planets
- When one misuses the gift of the human form by unnecessarily indulging in animal propensities of eating, sleeping, mating & defending he is again punished by being forced to descend to the lower species & undergo evolution according to the laws of nature
- When one scientifically studies the evolutionary theory, one can understand that human life is a junction where one may take the path of promotion or degradation
Y
- Yoga-bhrastah is not ordinary man. He is practicing yoga, but somehow or another could not fulfill. Therefore he gets again human body. He does not get the cat's body, dog's body. So he directly comes to the human body. There is no question of evolution
- You may convey my many many thanks to Rayarama for his nice article, "Evolution - the God that's failing." We should write similar articles in Back To Godhead. It is very very instructive, and it has appealed not only to me, but to many others
