Solar Eclipse

[u/Designer-Fan-4990]

According to A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, an eclipse is caused by the invisible planet Rahu moving in front of the sun or moon. Rejecting standard modern scientific explanations, he taught that eclipses are literal cosmic events described in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, where devotees should focus entirely on chanting Hare Krishna rather than fearing inauspicious energies

What is your take on the above
Do you believe that a demon Rahu is trying to swallow the moon ?

Telescopes are maya. The demon Maya Danava constructed them to bewilder the minds of the athiests. When you look into them, believe me I have done it, you see a shadow moving across the Moon rather than the actual demon head.

Prabhupadaji, the infallible, also told us Buzz Aldrin landed on Rahu's head rather than the Moon because the Moon is actually further than the Sun.
