Buddha and Krishna

As of today , labor day long weekend, a cry from pain from heart came due to differences in the teaching of buddha and krishna. Buddha said there is no self and no God. Krishna said I am God and you are soul and this body is just a cloth. The sweetness of bhakti and bliss of just being aware which i have experienced , i need to say bhakti is sweeter. i would also need to say as of now that however if vipassana is applied on bhakti experience .. the sweetness also melts away just like waves.

One thing is clear from both teachings. That I am definitely not this body and i still think i am this body. How do i remove this ignorance? Bhakti or Vipassana or both. I dont think both can go along together since both systems contradicts each other. I will go with Vipassana as of now. If God as personified is there , He will know my sincere longing and dedication.

I leave to Him to grace me with His wisdom and His love. I shall go with my matter based awareness of this body since i , with my limited ability can only feel this gross body , mind and their waves.

I firmly believe "no one harm himself knowingly. no one does wrong knowingly since doing wrong always harm the doer first". For this I dont need Buddha or Krishna to verify. My inner self is sufficient.

Now from 4th Sep 2007, my real journey will begin and no power of this world would be able to stop it. If there is Lord Krishna ,let Him come and grace me and turn me towards Bhakti else i am moving towards dissolution of everything towards Nirvana.
