God Is Not Dead — The Testimony of a Fortunate Seeker

by Administrator / 7 Apr 2014 / Published in News  /  


Pusta Krishna Dasa was Srila Prabhupada’s secretary for many years, and a pioneer of Krishna consciousness in South Africa.

By Pusta Krishna Das (Paul H. Dossick, MD)

In 1971 I related to Srila Prabhupada my personal experience of revelation from Krishna. With eyebrows raised he immediately said: “So now you must tell them that God is not dead.” It has been a long time coming and finally by his grace I have published this with content that will also help the seeker through the philosophical discrimination between matter and spirit, the understanding of what constitutes our free will and with it our opportunity in human life, glorification of the Holy Names, factual and experiential descriptions of the Spiritual Sky, introduction to the principles of devotional service, explanation of that which is beyond material enjoyment and renunciation, discussion of why there are so many religions, and my personal spiritual experience having had the revelation of Vaikuntha, Lord Vishnu within Whom dwell the liberated jiva souls, the Face of Sri Krishna and His spiritual effulgence. The book is 250 pages and was just published and is available through many online outlets at present like Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Archway Publishing, and my soon to go live website God Is Not Dead.Info

All profits will be utilized for Krishna’s divine service. I hope that you will obtain a copy. Having the material qualifications as a physician-surgeon and scientist, people in general will hopefully realize that these descriptions are founded in Truth, and that the speculative process and even the material scientific process with its limitations cannot reach to the plane of pure consciousness, nor evoke the Grace of God. I have included the back cover printing in the attachment which will clarify the breadth of the writing and the intent of this author. It is also very rich with expressions and examples which were used by Srila Prabhupad. A read through of this book will no doubt help to deepen your faith and renew your hope. It will also provide a wonderful gift for anyone who you want to share Krishna consciousness with.

Thank you very much….

THE BACK COVER WRITING

In the history of western literature there has never been a factual description of God. We often hear that “no one has seen God and lived to tell about it.” However, if the Supreme Truth wishes to reveal Himself to whomever and whenever He so chooses, then the Infinite can be known to the infinitesimal.

This extraordinary event is now being shared by a physician-scientist who had this most extraordinary experience in 1971 at the age of 20. His material qualifications hopefully will convince readers that the descriptions of this revelation are neither capricious nor imaginary. Those who are naturally disposed to seek the deeper Truth are the primary audience for these expressions of supreme good fortune and hope. But, any religiously or spiritually inclined individual will be highly benefited. The style of writing is that of a seeker, intended for serious seekers. Scientists will easily be carried along through the process of discrimination between matter and spirit. The pearls of Eastern wisdom, and quotes from the Vedas, especially the Bhagavad Gita, the Bible, and the Koran, will help readers understand that the path to enlightenment is being drawn by well-established spiritual traditions. However, the revelation of God Himself in His Personal and Impersonal aspects will be described for the readers, as it was shown to this seeker. The experiment was done, and fortunately, the result was realized by the Grace of God Himself. Although its verification is clear and confirmed in the great religious traditions, this is the factual description of one who has seen God and lived to tell about it.

It is the hope that these descriptions will help humanity to appreciate that indeed God is not dead. It is we who remain imprisoned due to our ignorance, as it were, in vehicles of mostly water and other elements. The person is the spiritual being within this vehicle and it is offered that even agnostics and some atheists will read these descriptions and be rejuvenated in their sojourns toward our spiritual Home. Thoughtful people should read this book and know that there is a genuine optimism within God’s creation. Once we understand this, then our lives take on a deep intrinsic eternal meaning. You too may say, as I did, that “God really is a Person!”

    Dear fellow bhaktas,
    I also want you to know that every bit of profit from this book will be used in Krishna’s service. I have no intention to profit materially from Krishna’s grace. It has been written as a service and by outside forces I am being encouraged to publicize this book and not hide it away any longer. Please do not be critical of this effort, while I my self may be very deserving of criticism. Kindly use this hopefully for increasing your own faith and inspiring the same in others.

    With humility and gratitude,

    Pusta Krishna das

    A new movie has come into theaters in the US entitles “God’s Not Dead”. It glorifies Christianity. We need to express to the world that God is Krishna, that He is reachable by meditation individually and collectively on the Holy Names of the Lord. This is Lord Chaitanya’s mercy for the fallen souls. There is a great opportunity to express this philosophically and factually through revelation how Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is listening to our glorification of His Holy Names. He can reveal Himself when you least expect it, His mercy is so limitless.
    I hope that the temples around the world might consider making an order of this book. I can provide the book at virtually cost plus shipping, and the temples can utilize the profits for their local preaching work. This book will be super effective in reaching out to scientists, practitioners of yoga, theistic persons of other religious traditions, and of course will be a great source of inspiration and cultural pride to the East Indians. I do believe that even agnostics and atheists will rethink their positions if they read “God Is Not Dead, The Testimony of a Fortunate Seeker”. It’s message is nonsectarian in keeping with the instructions of Lord Chaitanya, and it will be a tremendous preaching tool for you.
