Krishna is the God star

God star?

What is this about - what is the pseudo guru coming up it with?

Consider the Sun. The Sun is our very own star, our local star, floating in space with its own planets going around it. Because the atmosphere makes it look yellow we don't realise that it is quite white and don't regard it as the same as the stars because of that.
It is white when viewed from space.

Take some time to meditate on the Sun. Don't think of it merely as the Sun because of its yellow color. We are floating around in space, and the star is our own star,our own local star. Perhaps is the sky wasn't so blue during the day we would have a better appreciation of the Sun as a star. Whenever you look at it think of it as a star, our very own, that we are some place far of in space, floating around. It makes you wonder why some people are so obsessed with space when we already there. Why bother going elsewhere?

The Sun is the origin of the Earth. I spell it as a proper name as it deserves the respect for being the source of the planet we stand on. It is a being in its own right. If scientists don't regard it that manner, I do.

It is the being from which the matter that coalesced and formed into the Earth was shot out from.

It is literally the stuff from which the matter of the Earth is made from and the stuff of our very bodies. If we were to consider ourselves to be purely biological matter, material, physical beings without any spirit at all, the Sun would literally be God, our God.

It is truly a huge ball of hot metal, fire and gas, and dwarfs the Earth in size. Its distance from the Earth gives the impression of small size that doesn't do it justice. The article Vishnu and the Sun describes it some more.

The Sun, being the origin of the Earth, is the source of the energy that powers the Earth from its core, it is also the source of the energy that heats up the atmosphere and the seas, and causes the circulation, the rains and the seasons.

It is responsible for the maintenance of biological life on Earth. It is at once our origin, our nourisher and our sustainer. It is truly an oustanding being.

It is no wonder that ancient civilizations worshipped the Sun, they were wise in a way that contemporary civilizations don't understand and only choose to look at from a purely materialistic view point.

One also gets the impression that the Abrahamic religions with their minimal focus on the divine aspect of the natural world have done the Western world a disservice with its attendant effect on the world as whole which has adopted a Western materialistic model of reality.

The Earth may have an ability to sustain the abusive effects of industrial man on its environment, but we should know better than damage the environment needlessly.

Enough digression.

If we can consider the Sun to be our God, then who or what can be God to the Sun, and literally to all the stars in the Universe. Surely there must be something like that. Another star which is the Sun to all the stars, galaxies, quasars and pulsars out there, a Sun that is their origin, nourishes and sustains them, a star that is the origin, maintainer and nourisher of the galaxies and other celestial bodies in the Universe.

A single star, a physical, singular star that is the origin, maintainer and nourisher of the galaxies and other celestial bodies in the Universe. Surely it must be somewhere out there even if we can't see it. It must exist and must be invisible for a reason we can reasonably deduce. Well then if it exist then - I name this star - Krishna - the God Star.

If it exists then why can't we see it? The answer must be quite simple.

If the God star lights up the individuality of all the other galactic bodies comes to an end or merge into the singularity of the God star, just as in when the Sun rises in the morning all the stars disappear against the brighness of the Sun. You get the impression that the day the God star lights up is the day the Universe comes to end, only and hopefully to reemerge some day.

For these reason another the God Star probably has another name - the Death Star, as its appearance probably entails the consumation, or the end of individuality of the galactic elements, unless it is too far off to have such an effect. That would be such a relief.

The God Star being the ultimate source of the Sun is also what we are made of, and as such is the origin of our intelligence and consciousness.

This brings to mind the verse in the Gita.

Chapter 11.12

ISKCON
11.12

If a thousand suns rose all at once in the sky, such splendour
might approach the effulgence of that Supreme Person in His
radiant universal form.

11.16

O Viçveçvara, Lord of the universe! O Viçvarüpa!
I see Your innumerable forms with unlimited
hands, bellies, mouths and eyes on all sides. Moreover,
I cannot see in You any beginning, middle
or end.

11.17

I see Your form as the supremely brilliant, all-pervading
abode of splendour, adorned with crowns and
bearing clubs and discs on all sides. It is very difficult
to look upon You in the blazing fire of Your
effulgence, which is radiating like the sun in all
directions.

11.29

As moths rush into a blazing fire and perish, so
too are these warriors entering Your mouths with
great speed, only to die.

11.30

O Viñëu, with Your fiery tongues You are licking
up the hosts of living beings on all sides and devouring
them with Your blazing mouths. You are
scorching the entire universe with the fierce, allpervading
rays of Your effulgence.

11.31

O Deva-vara, best among gods, I offer my obeisances
unto You. Kindly be gracious to me and tell
me who You are in this ferocious form. I very much
want to know You, the primeval cause, because I
do not comprehend Your activities.

11.32

Çré Bhagavän said: I am time, the mighty destroyer
of the world, and I am here to annihilate all these
people. Even without your efforts, not one warrior
in either army will survive.

Does the Death Star spring to mind?

The key to this topic is to understand the very physical essence of the Universe as of God's being. What's more God is also of the very substance of our intelligence and consciousness is constituted of.
