RE: Bhagavad-gita As It Is English Verses Only SETTING THE SCENE
CHEETAH REPLY
Being Proactive I want to get ahead of Mr. Cheetah’s Robot. I am sure that sooner rather than later Mr. Robot will do its thing.
Dear Mr Cheetah and your buddy Mr. Robot.
My source for a lot of what I will post on Steemit, especially the works of my spiritual master, comes from my own personal copy the Bhaktivedanta Veda Base which is a Folio application containing all the works of my guru. These Veda Base CD's, or downloaded from many places on the internet, have been distributed for free for the past 30 years or so. And they will continue to be so available for free. Also you should know; all of my guru's works are now in the public domain. Ok! if you want to buy a book published by the proper authorities; you can do that.
Nevertheless, I intend to present, on Steemit, all these works; just as they are presented on many websites on the internet. FOR FREE DOWNLOAD. That’s beside posting my own essays and those of others which I have personal permission to do.
I dare anyone in the Steemit community to declare that these post ARE NOT QUALITY CONTENT! You may not like me, my philosophy, nor my intentions; that is OK because these posts are not for you and you simply have the right not to listen to them or read them.
In the case of the website(s) you will surely mention; you will find that all the media on those websites is free to read or hear on-line or to download the file.
In Srimad Bhagavatam, the most important scripture to Vaisnava’s:
“Completely rejecting all religious activities which are materially motivated, this Bhagavata Purana propounds the highest truth, which is understandable by those devotees who are fully pure in heart. The highest truth is reality distinguished from illusion for the welfare of all. Such truth uproots the threefold miseries. This beautiful Bhagavatam, compiled by the great sage Vyasadeva [in his maturity], is sufficient in itself for God realization. What is the need of any other scripture? As soon as one attentively and submissively hears the message of Bhagavatam, by this culture of knowledge the Supreme Lord is established within his heart.” SB 1.1.2
By making these presentations of Srila Prabhupada’s books, in all matter of media to the Steemit community, I am personally endeavouring to fulfil that portion which I have highlighted in bold font, “The highest truth is reality distinguished from illusion for the welfare of all”. At this time, I do not see that the Steemit community has this content available for their discrimination, taste, judgement, discernment, contemplation, inspection, contemplation, observation, examination, survey, review, scrutiny, thought, and meditation.
The facilitators of this website(s), that you may mention, are also Vaisnava devotees of Krishna and surely many are disciples of Srila Prabhupada; just as I am. If you investigate you will find that they have the same mission as I. Therefore, in pursuant of the above quoted verse, I want to make these works available to the Steemit community for their welfare; just like these other Vaisnava’s are doing on various web-sites.
It is not the intention of Steemit to promote fruitful dialog. I believe these works will be appreciated by a select core of the Steemit community. This stuff is not for everyone.; and for them I say, “If we agree on everything; then we have nothing to talk about.” My hope is that I will stimulate a dialog with Steemit community members regarding the contents of my posts.
So far, I am receiving several up-votes on many of my posts; there have been several comments like:
“OMG! This is SUCH an AMAZING post! Thank you for sharing! I gave you a vote!!”
“This is the best post on Steemit. I gave you a vote now, ya heard?”
This is my intention and not $. Nevertheless, whatever money I may earn by these posts will be donated to many possible Krishna consciousness projects. It is not my intention to make money for myself; there is no need. The reason being is that Krishna has kept his promise in Bhagavad-gita 18.66 to me; to see to my welfare and to protect me. He has provided me with a handsome retirement pension so to speak. Moreover, if I am fail or if I am successful in this endeavour depends on Lord Krishna only, and no one else.
Therefore, Mr. Robot Cheetah; whoever programed you should do a better job and make you SMARTER AND MORE PERSONAL instead of being so impersonal. Another point to consider is that it is highly unlikely that any Steemit community member is aware of any of the websites you may post as other sources of my posts, anyways. Hence; personally I am doing the Steemit community a great service and my spiritual master I am sure will be pleased with me.

HK, PAMHO, @Chetah is a robot and is very important that you put the source from where you write because they can put you on the black list and block you
I will try that when applicable. however what about when my source in my own personal copy of the Srila Prabhupada's VedaBase . There are multiple websites that have the same content; some in different formats, yet the same content. This particular site that Cheetah refered to is actually not very good. With my next post of chapter 3 I will refer to this website and lets see what happens. I do not think Cheetah is that smart and it will still post a comment and give me an up vote. If I get black listed; then I will take that as a hint from Krishna that this Steemit site is not ready for what I am posting. Nevertheless I will have my own personal web-site up by year endl. Gave you an upvote.
