No More Wars! / Saudamani and Pranada: Blood on Their Hands 04 26 26



PADA: There you have it folks. They all said -- there would be no more wars -- except when they said -- they will be making more of them. Yes only incompetent fools make wars! Righty ho! 

Various experts are now saying that without the fertilizer coming out, there could eventually be worldwide food production shortages -- and mass starvation etc. I dunno, but it seems there could be all sorts of issues if this continues. Maybe there are some people in the Government who realize -- a fertilizer shortage could make a billion people, or many more, face starvation. And the USA would be blamed for making this happen. 

That means our USA may think we are forced to use desperation techniques to open up the strait at any cost. A ground invasion? But a sea based invasion of a land mass is always very hard to do, and creates a big manpower loss for the invaders, and that is history. 

And what happens if Iran retaliates and takes out all the other Gulf states oil and desalinization operations -- if Iran is bombed again? It looks like there are no good options here. Which is why -- we are hesitating and not using any -- so far. But we are building up more resources and there might be a plan to -- escalate. Escalation has many hazards of its own. Meanwhile various congress people are vowing to defund this war. 

In any case it really is a mess. Yet we all knew all that in the 1980s, Iran controls the strait. This was well known by everyone all along. But there are always some folks who think the rules won't apply to them, ISKCON pt. 2 hee hee.  

My friend Markendeya Rsi (Hawaii) told me -- Tulsi Gabbard is going to make absolute certain fer sure -- the USA has no more wars. I told him that is not possible, she cannot overturn them. He got so upset he blocked me, but as it turns out, she was not able to contain them, just as we predicted. 

Some political commenter said, the USA's plan to make worldwide economic Armageddon -- and maybe create mass petrol and food shortages -- may lead to an actual Armageddon. And it looks like, that would make the USA Evangelicals very happy. Jesus will come back when that happens! Of course! 

Meanwhile the USA is inviting NATO to take over military operations and start bombing Iran to get their own oil. OK they already know that will not end well. You are welcome to clean up our mess!

Sorry, these leaders are not rational and that should be clear by now. It truly is amazing how badly they deviated from their original promises. 

Which is why Chanakhya Pandit says -- do not trust a politician or a prostitute. Hee hee! Unfortunately, a lot of vulnerable people are going to suffer a lot from all this, and many of them already are. This is the result of Kali Yuga's leaders taking over the world by hook, crook, force, lies, cheating and no small amount of carpet bombing the bejeepers out of all sorts of civilian people. Anyway, buckle up, the ride may get bumpy.

SAUDAMANI DEPARTS



I’ve just heard that Saudamani devi dasi has left her body, just a few hours ago, in the holy place of Mayapura. Others who knew her better can tell much more about this lovely, intelligent Vaisnavi. One particular memory comes to me, from a conversation I had with her some years ago.

She said, ‘you know when you go to visit some temple, you may hear wonderful classes, but the people you remember most fondly are the ones who took care of your needs, fed you, and so on?’ She went on to say that she felt Krishna would give special mercy to His pujaris, who daily dress Their Lordships, offer Them all kinds of services, put Them to rest at night.

For decades, Saudamani and her husband lived in the Philadelphia temple, and she served as the head pujari. I’m sure Lord Krishna has some personal service lined up for her in the eternal realm. My condolences to her family members and those closest to her and Ravindra Svarup Prabhu.

PADA: Unfortunately, Mayapur has an odious and well known reputation for severe child abuse, and harboring and enabling abusers. And it is a place where the main leaders of "the enforced cult ritualistic worship of homosexuals and pedophiles as messiah's project" reside. 

Ravindra swarupa is a leader of the 1986 "50 man committee guru reform" -- where they reinstated Bhavananda, aka oral sex with taxi drivers - pada, as their Vishnupada acharya. And they excommunicated Sulochana for "making offenses" to their other homosexual -- and / or oral sex with boys guru -- Kirtanananda. 

He was having oral sex with boys in his motorhome and evidently, was trying to have sex with a cat. So Ravindra Swarupa dedicated his entire adult life to making children worship his homosexual and pedophile -- oral sex pada -- sex with cats pada -- Vodka drinking -- sex with half dozen ladies pada -- pals as "God's successors." And that is why Sulochana called them "a guru suck-session," and that is why Saudamani and Ravindra's program killed him. 

As for Saudamani, a number of people asked me about her and her whereabouts. I did not know anything about her situation. But she is like many / most of my God brothers and sisters, they leave their bodies without ever saying that the GBC's illicit sex with men, women and children messiah's program is bogus. And my karmi friend told me, they cannot speak out -- because they are compromised. Well yup.  


by Pranada devi dasi (Comtois)

Saudamani devi dasi my dear godsister just passed away in Mayapur.

In 1985 Nagaraja and I moved to Philadelphia for his BTG service. I was searching for a godsister who would stand with me to open back up services women had been allowed to do but had stopped.

PADA: Yep, in 1985 Pranada's Back to Godhead magazine was advertising Kirtanananda as "Krishna's pure devotee" and saying things about Kirtanananda like "Meet a pure devotee of Krishna." Meanwhile me and Sulochana were saying that Kirtanananda's program has a lot of child abuse, including that Kirtanananda is giving blow jobs to boys.  

And the Pranada / Satsvarupa / Nagaraja program was full time fighting us, saying me and Sulochana are "poison pens" "offenders to pure devotees" and so on, so they could suppress us, defend their blow jobs on boys messiahs, and make us targets for assassination. And that is what happened, those of us who did not want children to worship Pranada's illicit sex gurus were targets for termination, due to their virulent propaganda against us. Sulochana said, "they painted a bull's eye on my back." Yeah, and according to Berkeley police, my back too.

And so Sulochana was murdered, and I was almost murdered. I was only saved by the FEDS and the Berkeley police. And the child abuse continued on. And thanks to Pranada's "Back to Godhead" propaganda, even the general public and mass media was informed that Kirtanananda is one of ISKCON's Jesus like successors to God, an assistant of the gopis no less, when he was in fact a homosexual pedophile giving blow jobs to boys. OK they lied that he is a guru. 

Pranada's program wanted to confuse the devotees and the mass of public about who is God's successor and who is not. And they did. There are still many mass media reports that "Kirtanananda is a guru" that have been made in thousands and thousands of karmi mass medias, and still are being made now, thanks to people like Pranada making all these lies. And placing our lives in peril for pointing to their lies.  

Some of the ex-children victims of Pranada's program told me they were in Auschwitz for kids. That would make Pranada one of the female SS commander officers under Der Fuhrer there, and would make her operating as the chief: Oberaufseherin — senior overseer -- often the highest-ranking woman; rapportführerin — report leader, responsible for roll calls and discipline; lagerführerin — camp leader etc. She has been one of the SS gestapo's chief female operatives in their Auschwitz for kids project. And evidently Saudamani was one of the lesser SS gestapo officers, a cheer leader of Joe Goebbels Ravindra swarupa. 

And part of the discipline of her program is, us dissenters to her homosexual and pedophile messiah's program can be banned, beaten, sued and killed. And we were banned, beaten, sued and killed thanks to her program. And thousands of children were molested because they suppressed our complaints with fatal suppression. Anyone objecting to their pedophile messiah's out there? Kill em! 

And Satsvarupa was also Pranada's part time lover, and he was the main Joe Goebbel's writer saying Kirtanananda is a pure devotee and we are poison. This is why people ask me, was Pranada giving Satsvarupa blow jobs -- like her other gurus were getting blow jobs -- for example Giriraj swami? 

What kind of intimate relations was she having with SDG? And Sulochana said Satsvarupa is "the Joe Goebbels of ISKCON," writing about the glories of Pranada's homosexual and pedophile pooja Der Fuhrer process. And she is what, giving him blow jobs, while he is writing that we dissenters are poison pens, to get us exterminated -- because we object to Pranada's Auschwitz for kids project. And SDG is a co-Fuhrer.

So Pranada has been a big part of the cheer leading of making their Auschwitz for kids program. And recently she was advertising that her Auschwitz Fuhrer Jayapataka was giving her glorification for her writings. And JPS is "der Fuhrer und Reichskanzler" the Leader and Chancellor of the Reich -- of their Auschwitz for kids program. And Saudamani was one of the hand maiden assistants for that camp. 

Pranada is gloating that she is being glorified by "der Fuhrer of Auschwitz"? "I got a commendation medal of honor from the leader of the death camps for children." And she is proud of that? And Alachua has a number of people worshiping Jayapataka now, because they are in love with Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz for kids. And Saudamani is living in the Auschwitz for kids project's headquarters, assisting the Fuhrer of that project. 

Did I forget to mention, Ravindra swarupa had Sulochana excommunicated in 1986, because we were addressing all the child molesting? And Ravindra's program re-instated Bhavananda, so the children of ISKCON could worship Pranada's program's oral sex with taxi drivers messiah, as their Vishnupada acharya. Children need to worship oral sex with taxi drivers as Vishnupada, and that is Nagaraja's idea of Back to Godhead.

Sorry. All of the people who supported: Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz for kids; Satsvarupa's glorification of oral sex in the motorhome as a pure devotee; making us dissenters into poison pens for assassination, are the people responsible for all of the banning, beating, molesting, suing and killing. Saudamani was living in Mayapur under Jayaparaka, with Ravindra Swarupa, chief architect of making me and Sulochana targets for assassination for objecting to their Auschwitz for kids project. These people have a lot of blood on their hands: Sulochana's and the thousands of kids who suffered horribly in their death camp for kids project.  

Pranada is making videos about having love and compassion, and she has a lot of love. She loves Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz for kids, and his top SS reich officer supporters like Ravindra and Saudamani. Yep, she loves the people who live in that camp, like Ravindra swarupa and Saudamani. So they wanted to start a nice program of their "anal reconstructive surgery / sex with children epidemic" also called "a sodomy sampradaya" a "guru suck-session" and a "sex with stools parampara" etc. by Sulochana. No wonder they wanted us dead.

And they go and live in that camp, because they are that camp. And now someone writes to tell me Saudamani did 50 years of service, which is true. She serves Der Furher of Auschwitz for kids, lives in his empire as one of his maid servants, and helps Ravindra have us dissenters sent to the morgue. They have the blood of Sulochana and the blood of many children on their hands. 

Several godsisters declined expressing fear and saying that I didn’t know what I was up against. I approached Saudamani and she indicated that maybe she would be willing to help. She said, “What do you want changed?” I rattled off the list: women should be able to chant in the temple room, stand side-by-side with the men instead of in the back of the temple room, offer arati on the altar and for Srila Prabhupada, they should be able to give class and lead kirtan, giving initiation. . .

PADA: Yeah, we need to give women a guru certificate in their oral sex with taxi drivers and mass child molesting guru sampradaya. Which kills us.

She said, “What one thing, if changed, could have the biggest impact?” Obviously, she had something in mind. “I don’t know, what?” I asked. “Giving Bhagavatam class. If women start giving classes again it will be difficult to deny their intelligence and devotional standing.”

She suggested that I write her a letter expressing what I was seeing and she’d write a reply. It would appear innocent, innocuous, she said. Then she’d give the letters to Ravindra Svarupa Prabhu and if he approved of them, he could take them to the next GBC meeting. It was 1988 and Ravindra took our letters to the GBC with a request that they vote on allowing women to give Bhagavatam classes. Word came back to us that there was no need for such a vote as there was nothing on the books stating that women couldn’t give class.

So, Saudamani dasi said, We need to start giving classes. And so it was, Saudamani and I began giving Bhagavatam classes in Philadelphia after a 10 year hiatus in North America.

We can all say thank you to Saudamani for being fearless and intelligent (she was a master debater in college).

I love you Saudamani! God speed. Thank you for your lifetime of service to Srila Prabhupada.

[Photos: Saudamani Prabhu with her husband, Ravindra Svarupa Prabhu; and with Srila Prabhupada - sitting right below the lady standing.]

PADA: Yep, they love the people who serve Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz for kids, and go and live in his campus. And that boys and girls, explains how all the banning, beating, molesting, lawsuits and murders took place. And now Jayapataka wants to spend another $20M suing us, because they cannot tolerate anyone worshiping a pure devotee and not Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz for kids. And Saudamani was one of their SS officer assistants. They cannot tolerate anyone worshiping a pure devotee and not the leaders of their anal reconstructive surgery epidemic messiah's club.

And Saudamani devi dasi shares the karma of making all this happen. Of course, we still wish he well for her future life. Why would I not? But we cannot change the karma of the Oberaufseherin — senior SS female overseers -- of Auschwitz for kids. They will be held accountable on the superior court level. 

One of the things many ex-children tell me is how frustrated they are that none of these people even admits they made all this happen, and there is no accountability. But there is, no one can escape the laws of God. 

And the leaders of their Auschwitz for kids project will have their day in Krishna's superior court. And Sulochana said he would not trade his past billion years of karma for 30 seconds of their future karma, they will not be given any mercy because their program gave us and the children none. 

Rather their program gave us mass molesting and -- murders. Anyway, we are glad the leaders of Auschwitz for kids are departing. The planet will be better off without these leaders and cheer leaders of Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz project. It is a gradual purification process, which Krishna is arranging step by step. 

But yeah, whenever one of the leaders of Auschwitz for kids departs, the other Gestapo leaders hold a big ceremony to cry over the other SS officer departing. Meanwhile the Yamaduttas are happy and glad they finally get this SS officer in their domain.

angel108b@yahoo.com 



Yeah LD, the Yamaduttas are just playing with Der Fuhrer of Auschwitz, just like Lord Narasimgha is like a cat playing with a mouse before He attacks. Yup! 



OH OH PILGRIMS. Empires in decay are more dangerous than empires in general. True dat! ys pd

PADA Readership Map / Unity Proposal / Anger Management / Bhagavat Health 04 24 26



======
NO ONE READS PADA! [Except those who do!] 

It looks like S. America is on the upswing. Iraq has only turned up recently, someone must be sharing it over there. This chart changes all the time, just to give our readers the idea that we are not only a USA reader base. India is sometimes No. 1 and is often No. 2, but it goes up and down all the time. This is just a snip from today's stats.

UNITY PROPOSAL

Hare Krishna Puranjana Prabhu.

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I have attached an article in the body of this email for your perusal and publication if you wish. Thank you so much as always for all that you do for the glory of Srila Prabhupada.

Your servant,

HISTORY REPEATS

An excerpt:

Conscious that among those who chanted the praises of their God so sweetly there were some who cloaked with devotion the foulest sins, their hymns inspired him with detestation at their hypocrisy. He had long observed with disapprobation and contempt the superstition which governed Madrid’s inhabitants. His good sense had pointed out to him the artifices of the monks, and the gross absurdity of their miracles, wonders, and superstitious relics. 

He blushed to see his countrymen the dupes of deceptions so ridiculous, and only wished for an opportunity to free them from their monkish fetters. That opportunity, so long desired in vain, was at length presented to him. He resolved not to let it slip, but to set before the people, in glaring colours, how enormous were the abuses but too frequently practised in monasteries, and how unjustly public esteem was bestowed indiscriminately on all who wore a religious habit. He longed for the moment destined to unmask the hypocrites, and convince his countrymen, that a sanctified exterior does not always hide a virtuous heart.

(An excerpt from The Monk; Mathew Lewis; published 1795)

The Ritvik Reality Today:

It astounds me that people who claim to be well versed in Srila Prabhupada’s books also claim that Ritvik is a modern concoction. There are several passages describing Ritvik priests and their responsibilities.

The four types of Ritvik priests in Vedic rituals are:

· Hota: Recites invocations and litanies from the Rigveda.

· Adhvaryu: Assists in the physical details of the ritual, such as measuring the ground and building the alter.

· Udgata: Chants hymns set to melodies from the Samaveda.

· Brahma: The chief priest who supervises the overall functioning of the yajna and rectifies any mistakes during the performance

As our Acharya, Srila Prabhupada’s authorising of Ritviks to oversee initiations is bonafide. An Example Text regarding the reality of Ritviks from Srila Prabhupada’s Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 9, Ch. 7 Text 22

visvamitro bhavat tasmin
hota cadhvaryur atmavan
jamadagnir abhud brahma
vasistho yasyah sama-gah (an alternative wording of udgata)

Translation

In that great human sacrifice, Visvamitra was the chief priest to offer oblations, the perfectly self-realized Jamadagni had the responsibility for chanting the mantras from the Yajur Veda, Vasistha was the chief brahminical priest, and the sage Ayasya was the reciter of the hymns of the Sama Veda.

(exalted personalities all) This text obviously isn’t about initiations post 1977, but it, along with many other verses, does prove that Ritvik is a reality for the past and present. How the uttama-adhikari Acharya chooses to implement the system is up to him, as it was in 1977 when Srila Prabhupada introduced the system of Ritvik initiations in ISKCON.

Unity in Diversity (possible but highly unlikely)

There are quite a few Gaudiya Vaishnava groups in the world today, and not all devotees accept Srila Prabhupada as their guru or Acharya. Such persons may believe their guru is uttama-adhikari, while others accept their guru is krpa siddhi (still conditioned but perfect in the sense of following their own uttama-adhikari guru perfectly). This is bonafide. 

We may personally doubt the qualifications, but our brothers and sisters claim to have accepted a genuine guru, and an individual’s choice should be respected. This does not endorse in any way foolish fallen deviant criminal imposter gurus or their complicit godbrothers / sisters or sycophantic followers.

Then there are those of us who believe Srila Prabhupada is the most recent uttama-adhikari Acharya in our Gaudiya sampradaya disciplic succession. In this case, following Srila Prabhupada’s advice to take shelter of the most recent uttama-adhikari Acharya, we accept Srila Prabhupada as our spiritual master. This is also bonafide, and should be respected as such. If respect is understood as a two-way street, unity in diversity is possible, otherwise it is only sentimental or pretentious.

A Bhagavad-gita Purport Excerpt Ch.10 Text 8

A learned scholar who has studied the Vedas perfectly and has information from authorities like Lord Chaitanya and who knows how to apply these teachings can understand that Krishna is the origin of everything in both the material and spiritual worlds, and because he knows this perfectly he becomes firmly fixed in the devotional service of the Supreme Lord. He can never be deviated by any amount of nonsensical commentaries or by fools.

Your servant,

R das


PADA: Generally the followers of a bona fide acharya understand that the acharya cannot be a conditioned soul. And as such, they consider worshiping a conditioned soul as guru to be a deviation. And there are many such examples of the conditioned soul guru process in ISKCON, the Gaudiya Math and in the history of many sahajiya (false acharya) cults in India. 

The bona fide acharyas almost always -- perhaps in all cases -- are regularly preaching that worshiping conditioned souls as gurus is not authorized, and is -- in fact -- a ticket for staying in the material world, if not a ticket to a lower planet in a lower life form. The followers of the bona fide acharyas consider worshiping conditioned souls as gurus to be staying in the same position spiritually, unable to advance. If not, such gurus and their followers are considered as going down to a lower destination, maybe to the most obnoxious regions. 

And when we see the spectacular tailspin of disrupted results of their premature guru program, we have no doubt that it is the case -- they are going down. They are already going down this life for that matter. So the unity has to come from the side of the conditioned soul gurus. They have to unite with the followers of the pure devotees, and accept and allow their program. 

That rarely happens, because the conditioned soul gurus know that worshipers of Srila Prabhupada are a theological and economic competitor. And that is why they teach their followers to ban, beat, sue and kill us. We are bad news for their guru business. And that is also why the Kauravas said -- they will not allow the Pandavas a piece of land the size of a pin head -- because they would compete with the Kauravas with any amount of allowance, and gradually expand. 

Hence, the GBC just this year AGAIN re-certified their previous statements that no ritviks [anyone who worships a pure devotee] are allowed to participate in ISKCON. In other words, the homosexual and pedophile messiah's program cannot allow anyone to worship a pure devotee in their society, because people will decide that is the better process.

Most people here in the West already decided to jettison the GBC's false guru process a long time ago. And so the temples are empty ghost towns. The mass of devotees have already left, voted with their feet, and abandoned the society of the GBC's illicit sex gurus. Anyway, the ball for unity is in their court. 

They have to quit making endless restrictions, rules, resolutions and laws that state "worshiping of pure devotees is NOT EVER found in shastra and is thus not ever allowed in ISKCON. But -- you can worship our illicit sex with men, women and children messiah's project." That is never going to attract many people. Or unite anything.

Then again some have suggested that the entire reason the GBC makes homosexuals and pedophiles into messiahs is -- to disgust people and empty the temples. Then they can make their meat eating and mayavada Hindu cultural hall program, which they are doing. That path for unity with the Kauravas was to accept and allow the Pandavas, that did not happen. 

They did not want that, and that is why history, and Krishna, have condemned them. The problem for many of us is, we feel that to cooperate with the GBC guru process is perhaps enabling and empowering their program, which is not something most followers of a bona fide acharya want to do. 

Then the false gurus ride on the coat tails of our compromiser process and it advertises their process. This was one of the main complaints against Aindra, his wonderful kirtan work -- is simply making an advertisement for the GBC's guru program. And unfortunately it ended badly for Aindra, and serves as an example why compromise with the GBC program is not easy, and often, not possible, and can be dangerous to life and limb. 

Devotees have wrote to PADA for 20 years, who can we write complaints to in the GBC body? There is no one we can recommend. They run a secret operation with secret meetings and the first thing the ISKCON PAMMHO network did when it launched was -- to block all of my messages. Anyway I am all for unity, but we need to unite under one acharya in my opinion, or better to remain separated and independent until some unity can be attained. ys pd angel108b@yahoo.com

BEING ANGRY IS NOT VAISHNAVA! (RH Dasa) 

Recently, a devotee was trying to sell me on the idea that nobody should ever display anger, for any reason. I rejected his proposal as being unbalanced. 
Firstly, according to Vaishnava philosophy, no emotional or mental state is inherently bad. Each emotion and mental state has its original, pure spiritual form, which is auspicious. Emotions displayed in a pure service mentality toward God and all living beings are pure and good, and emotions displayed for one’s own selfish motives are inauspicious. 

Even ignoring all spiritual considerations, on the material platform the anger a parent displays towards a child who has misbehaved is good for the child. The anger of the parent teaches the child not to behave badly. 
Here is a relevant quote from shastra regarding anger:

39. Even kindness to violent enemies is not conducive to ultimate good. He who is kind to such persons is ruthless though his ruthlessness is concealed by aft illusory kindness.

(Shiva Purana 7.1.31)

The devotee I was speaking with then said that punishment may be necessary, but the authority figure should not become angry while enacting the punishment. But I pointed out that a basic principle of human psychology is to mistake too much kindness for weakness. If an authority figure always corrects their subordinate in a polite and gentle mood, then the tendency will be for the subordinate to think the authority figure is weak, and that they can misbehave all they want without fear of the authority figure. 

Shastra confirms this principle:

Indeed calmness (forbearance) and forgiveness, also guilelessness and politeness of speech-these virtues of the noble are mis-construed as weakness, when directed towards those bereft of these virtues.

(Ramayana Yuddha Khanda 21.14-21)

When a subordinate misbehaves in a serious way, the anger displayed by the authority figure is shocking and frightening to the subordinate. This shock and fear leaves a strong impression on the subordinate’s mind, and will deter them from misbehaving in the future. In order for an authority figure to be effective in their role, there must be some healthy fear and respect for them on the part of the subordinate. This principle is true for parents, kings, teachers, etc. 

In fact, I would say that a person in a position of authority isn’t doing their job properly if they never display anger towards subordinates under any circumstances.

Fanatical pacifism is just as unbalanced as too much aggression. Humans should always seek to conduct themselves, and all of society in a balanced, common sense fashion. Common sense tells us that anger has a use, when used properly. Although, careful consideration should go into the use of anger and punishment, and these should not be applied unnecessarily.

RH

Bahulāśva: Kṛṣṇa's activities are always for the good. So even when He becomes angry there is no loss.
Prabhupāda: That is also...
Dr. Mize: Righteous anger.
Bahulāśva: Yes, spiritual anger.
Dharmādhyakṣa: It's His mercy. So if Kṛṣṇa gets angry at us, that's actually...
Prabhupāda: Everything has got proper use. In the material condition we do not know that. Therefore Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura has made a list, how to use your, this anger, greediness, like that……….Just like Hanumān. He became angry upon Rāvaṇa. He set fire in his city, destroyed the whole city. He showed his anger, but not for his personal sense gratification. He wanted to serve Lord Rāma. Sītā was stolen by him, so there was arrangement for fighting, and he did the same thing, set fire.
(Conversation June 23, 1975, Los Angeles)

BHAGAVAT HEALTH CRISIS

Dandavat Pranams Dear devotees

I'm posting this on behalf of Srila Bhaktivedanta Bhagavat Maharaj's disciples and well wishers with his permission.

Beginning in 2016, after a 1-month fever sickness, Srila Maharaj has had progressive expanding neuropathy from his toes now up to his knees. It is a very painful and debilitating experience for him to walk or move around in any way. He has also developed A-Fib approximately 5 years ago.

After a TIA in January 2024, we arranged for Srila Maharaj to get treatments in India. While stabilizing him at the time, in his most recent India trip in early 2025 he had a couple falls in Bangalore. While the doctors ruled out neurological reasons for them, they still had an adverse effect on his recovery process.

Since returning to the USA, we arranged for comprehensive testing last summer and ultimately discovered a COPD diagnosis which explained so much of his breathing challenges. We were in Houston doing acupuncture treatments for neuropathy and visiting specialists like pulmonary and cardiology doctors when it became clear that there were more challenging times ahead.

Approximately one month ago, we brought Srila Maharaj to the hospital to address his developing pulmonary edema and preliminary congestive heart failure. In the 3 weeks of hospitalization, Srila Maharaj improved enough to move to a Rehabilitation facility. 

However, he developed kidney issues at the end of his hospital stay that were worrisome. Now the doctors in the rehab facility have identified an acute kidney injury which is causing intermittent dysfunction.

Śrīla Maharaj has spent 56 years (as of Earth Day April 22nd!) in the service of his beloved Śrīla Prabhupada. Giving up all material responsibilities he received sannyas from Śrīla Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaj in 2008. 

From that time he's been reliant on donations as he traveled and preached. Due to his adverse health, he cannot continue his pracar seva for his Guru Varga like before and with mounting hospital expenses is left in a negative financial situation.

We're reaching out to the worldwide Vaishnava community who know and love "Uncle Bhagavat" for support during this difficult time.

Please consider donating to the GoFundMe or contacting us to get involved in supporting him in other ways. He also authored and published his first book last year. For those who would like to support him by purchasing it, the link is HERE: https://www.amazon.com/Souls-Journey.../dp/B0F327WCM8...

#SupportSrilaMaharaj #VaishnavaCare

PADA: OK I feel bad for the guy, honest. At the same time, we were all told not to take disciples because we cannot absorb sins. And if we do take sins, we have to suffer. And they are suffering left and right. 

It is not possible for a conditioned soul to absorb sins from another conditioned soul. That is not the process, but BV Narayan Maharaja was rubber stamping the GBC as gurus and many of his own people, because he has no idea what the process is. And it is creating a lot of suffering, which is undue in our opinion. Never mind all the children who suffered Auschwitz for kids under Narayan Maharaja's anointed messiahs.

All that being said, we wish him the best and hope some help can be given to him. He also needs a lot of mental help. "I am the next Jesus and I can absorb sins." This is the sign of a person who is not mentally well. Neither are all the other messiahs BV Narayan has been rubber stamping left and right. In any case, God speed sir, and lets hope Krishna gives you some sort of relief. 

He did help us with the poison issue, and he gets some credit for that. Overall, the devotee society has not made much of an arrangement for its seniors and elders, and unfortunately this type thing happens over and over. ys pd

STRI DHARMA

It Is Not Only the Wife Who Must Be Vedic

Strī-dharma — 12 Essential Conversations (Part 2 of 12)

Why men’s duties cannot remain invisible in any honest discussion of strī-dharma
A distorted social vision scrutinizes women endlessly while leaving men morally undefined. Dharma does not work that way.

We heard this anecdote: in Mayapur, someone holding a voluminous manuscript came up to Jayapataka Maharaja and proudly said: "Maharaja, we have compiled all the duties of women from the scriptures, from quotes… from everywhere. Everything about stri-dharma, the dharma of women, is in here!"

"Very good." Maharaja said, "Do you also have a compilation of duties for men? Do you have also that book?" The devotee said, "No Maharaja, we have only collected the duties of women." "Then," Maharaja said, "You can take this book and throw it in the Ganga. Unless you also bring a compilation of all the duties for men, you can throw this one away."

One of the clearest signs of imbalance in religious culture is this: women’s duties are collected, repeated, and analyzed in great detail (often through anachronistic and pathological lenses), while men’s duties remain vague, assumed, or conveniently ignored.

That is not balance. It is distortion.

A healthy vision of strī-dharma cannot be built by putting the entire moral burden on women while letting men move through the discussion with minimal accountability. Marriage and family life do not stand or fall on female adjustment alone. They depend on both sides, and especially on whether men understand their obligations toward the women in their care.

This is one of the strongest corrections needed in the whole discussion.

It challenges the tendency to gather all the scriptural expectations for women while leaving unanswered the equally important question: what about men? What about fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons? What about the moral duty to create an atmosphere in which women are respected, supported, and able to flourish?
A one-sided model in which there are endless demands upon women but very little is demanded from men is not simply unfair.

It is anti-dharmic in spirit.

It turns sacred order into a system of asymmetrical pressure. The wife is told to be patient, sweet, tolerant, loyal, modest, and service-minded. But if the husband is selfish, unstable, emotionally careless, or spiritually weak, then the whole system becomes deeply compromised. A family cannot be healthy if one side carries nearly all the pressure while the other enjoys nearly all the privilege.
Traditional sources also place clear obligations on men. Fathers, brothers, husbands, and brothers-in-law are to ensure that the women in the family are respected, pleased, and cared for.

Families where women suffer because of male misconduct are described as heading toward ruin. Women are not to be insulted, neglected, or treated as spiritually irrelevant household assets.

This becomes even more important when we remember that women in Lord Caitanya’s mission are not spiritually secondary or socially ornamental. They can preach, teach, learn, organize, and contribute in substantial ways.

So a truly Vedic husband is not one who merely expects service. He is one who recognizes the dignity, service potential, and spiritual seriousness of the woman before him.

Whenever religious talk becomes preoccupied with regulating women while remaining strangely soft on men, something important has already been lost. The conversation may still sound scriptural, but its center of gravity has shifted away from truth and toward control.

If we want real dharma, men must become visible again in the moral picture. Not as abstract protectors, but as accountable human beings with responsibilities that are not optional.

It is not enough to ask whether women are doing their duty. We must also ask whether men are worthy of the trust they expect and demand.

PADA: YUP!

Prayers for Bhakti Puri / Akshaya Tritiya Meaning / Clown Show / Tamal vs Ritviks 04 23 26

 


AN INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE BY DEVOTEES

FROM URMILA DASI (EDITH BEST): Certainly we wish him well and hope that he will get another opportunity for service. I also hope that he can be rectified of his grievous crimes in as gentle and joyful a way as possible. He misused the role of guru to sexually assault many of his disciples. And engaged in serious pastoral abuse. 

We report criminal activity to the police. We keep our distance from someone who is not of good character. We offer respects, at least in our mind, to all living entities, what to speak of someone who has chanted the holy name. We harbor no hatred, but we do desire rectification. As far as "reconciling" the specific mixture of good and evil of a particular individual, that I would prefer to leave to the vastly superior intelligence of God.

FROM BB: My take? Does not look like ANY GBC ... or ANY caretaker of ANY victim EVER went to ANY police. Where are the police reports? Why do none of these GBC leaders EVER get reported for sexual abuse ... and NEVER go to jail. 

After all this, we have to pray for him! And his well being! What about victims who sometimes (or many times) ... commit suicide? Who ever prays for them? Who even knows who these victims are? Or how to help them ... even if we wanted? It is always the perps who get the prayer blessings and not victims ... 

FROM RAMANANDA PRABHU: I was his disciple. I have very mixed feelings just now. It’s good to remember the great things that went on under his watch. Hundreds of thousands of books distributed. Millions of people seeing, hearing and chanting Gauranga. Hundreds of thousands, even millions donated to temple development around the world.

But also many psychologically damaged, even broken, devotees, who dedicated the very best of themselves and were bullied and abused for many years.
I’m also thinking of the leaders who let it go on even after alarms were raised, since the money was coming in and the books were going out. They allowed the abuse to continue as long as their projects were being supported and the MONEY COLLECTING scores were good. There was no concern for the bullied and abused. 

I wish him the very best but Karuna Bhavan is a very troubled place and even after he left the leadership which succeeded him was trained by him and so it is still a very troubled community. The whole history of ISKCON Scotland is a deeply sad one even to this present day. 

And yet as long as they maintain financially with the rent from houses and as long as ISKCON uk’s good ole boys club continues to look out for its friends, Karuna Bhavan will never fulfil its potential. I finally got away from there just a couple of years ago. It was a good choice which should have come much sooner.

FROM MATHEW McGOVERN: He gave Sivaram swami a million quid for his hungarian programe & the deal was sealed, you know by now, ISKCON is a business, right?

ISKCON has become a sovereign clown show with people like Mahavisnu and his travelling circus. Corrupt characters like "The Godfather" Jayapataka and his protected gangster mafia. The deviated leaders of ISKCON India who have polluted INTERNATIONAL movement with Hindu ultranationalist racist ideology (Hindutva). 

Radhanath and his new age 'influencers' giving bogus and bad mundane "self help" lines. Bhakti Sundar “Free Meals” with his bad example of pornography addiction.

Bhaktividya Purna and the pedophiles. Bhakti Vikas with his supposed rancid orthodoxy which enables him to protect and defend liberal democrat ideals, like falling down acharyas. Jayadvaita and profiteers from acharya edited books. Guru Prasad and other sannyasis with female personal secretaries / handmaids. And so the list goes on.

Those not on the list are accomplices by omission, who carry their own hidden rot.

TAMAL AND RITVIKS

@navinsaggam78: In this lecture recorded in Mayapur HH Tamal Krishna Goswami Maharaj clearly explained the deviation of Ritvik philosophy.

@pada1008: Yes, Tamal wanted his predator pals to be worshiped as gurus. And his society became full of them. And many children, probably thousands, were mistreated by Tamal's child oppressing culture.

The good news is we had Tamal sued in Dallas in 1986 for $3,000,000, and he lost. Then we had Tamal sued again for $400,000,000 again in Dallas, and he lost again. So we were able to help hundreds of victims of Tamal's program. Now we have got lawyers at the Delhi Supreme court trying to investigate the child mistreatment that has been going on there, and it is moving forward.

Tamal thought that worshiping pure devotees is not authorized. And we need to worship his predator pals, even predators of minors. Tamal never understood the system of Krishna's guru parampara.

I also know Lokanath's female victim (who was 11 years old child) personally. And she wanted me to post her complaint letters on my blog to expose Lokanath. And we did, and at least some GBC agreed that Lokanath should not be allowed to speak at a number of USA temples.

Yes, Tamal was causing a $100,000,000 legal money loss for ISKCON. And he was always chatting with his lawyers and not us, because he could not speak to us devotees, but only his $$$ lawyers. Of course ISKCON lost hundreds of millions more -- when the donations stopped -- because of all these lawsuits. Tamal has no idea we cannot hire lawyers to fix our position in our next life. We will be held to account without Mercedes driving legal defense.

But yes, Tamal clearly said that worshiping pure devotees is a deviation. And we need to worship predators, and that is how he causes suffering to thousands of children, and giant legal and media problems for ISKCON. ys pd

@navinsaggam78: The end justifies the means, the very fact that Srila Tamal Krishna Goswami Maharaj got a Samadhi near the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada in Sridham Mayapur goes to show that his life was completely dedicated to the mission of Srila Prabhupada. The worldwide community of ISKCON devotees should be grateful to Srila Tamal Krishna Goswami Maharaj for his contribution to the mission of Srila Prabhupada. Ys

@pada1008: Tamal's life was dedicated to promoting predators as acharyas. Including predators of minors. And thousands of children are victims of his process, as we proved in court -- twice. And we intend to prove same again in Delhi courts.

One of the Tamal predators of minors "acharyas" is Kirtanananda, who also has a samadhi in the dham near the acharyas. Just because a predator or a cheer leader of predators muscles their way into the samadhis, does not mean anything. The end is -- thousands of victims and $100,000,000 legal fees, and that justifies -- what?

Certainly the victims do not think any of this is justified. Some child victims took their lives from all the trauma. And that means Tamal has to account for those lost lives in his next life, as well as the $100M he stole from ISKCON to pay his San Fernando lawyers. He will have to pay all that back.

Oddly, Tamal was avoiding going to India but Ravindra Swarupa insisted they had to discuss our court case, so Tamal reluctantly went. And he left his body there. Then his clown car followers blamed me for his departure, saying -- I forced him to go there. I had no say in his going or not going. The end justifies the means? He went there to discuss our court case, and that was the end. ys pd

@mahotsahachaitanyadas1104: Srila Prabhupada explains about the bug who sits on the king's lap in the throne, and the soldier who fights for the King at the battle front. Anyone with common sense knows about this bug. And the bug drove away thousands of sincere foot-soldiers from Lord Chaitanya's commander-in-chief's army.

USA AND TRICKLE DOWN REAGANOMICS

PADA: Not entirely correct. The first person to open trade with China was Nixon. But it was very limited. Ronald Regan opened it up and dropped most of the trade restrictions. And that caused millions and millions of USA jobs to go offshore to China. Reagan is credited with "de-industrializing" the USA. 

Of course the Democrats did not help much either, also true. Trump did almost nothing in his first term about trade. In fact China trade grew on his first term. And he has not been doing anything of substance to fix the issue now. 

The tariff idea is not making manufacturing come back here hardly at all, and it is making things more expensive for the common people. But worse, the deficit is climbing and now Trump's new plan is to spend $100 billion on Iran, and make the deficit even worse. This is not making USA greater again, it is making the prices of fuel and everything go up more and more. 

Which means -- less money to invest in USA. But you can research this yourself on Chat GPT, Reagan's whole idea was international "free trade." And that in real terms means -- freeing up buying manufactured goods from China. Which is what has been done. And we never recovered. Trump is now asking Ford if they can make their factories produce our military gear. And that is because we gave up our real substantial making military gear a long time ago. 

The Reagan plan of giving huge tax breaks to large corporations has worked out great. For China. Globalism? 

The tax break money went to invest in factories in China, and still is going there for that matter. In other words, the globalist's large multination corporations are running the world economy. And they bought out people like Reagan with election donations, and the rest is history. And now the family unit cannot function in the USA because young people cannot afford to have kids. Marriage rates are going down more every day. This is the social problem they created with their economic policy. ys pd

IMPLICATIONS OF IRAN MESS

PADA: A friend in India said to PADA: The idea of bombing Iran into the stone age has already happened to India, we have no cooking fuel. And transport and power producing fuel is in short supply. It is making life harder and harder -- and it was already intolerable for most people.  

The Mega-Documentary of Global Economic Restructure: A Complete Roadmap of Civilized Fall and Digital Rebirth

Proposal: Humanity on the threshold of the great transition

April 23, 2026—Today will be recorded as the moment in global history, when the old-world financial structure collapsed forever. The conflict between America, Israel and Iran is no longer just a regional military activity; it is a sign of the destruction of the global monetary engine that has run the world since World War II. Most of the world is still confused that it's a temporary system like the 2020 epidemic, but the reality is that the blocking of Hormuz Zaldumrum is a "full stop" for the global economy.

This document provides a detailed postmortem of the 12 phases that will lead us to a fully integrated digital monitoring and asset-based system from a debt-based, physical currency system.

Step 1: Physical Fall of Energy Supply (Physical Energy Collapse)

1.1 Hormuz Swamp: The Neck of the Global Economy

This narrow route is the world's most important energy artery. About 21 million barrels of oil passes from here daily. Blocking this route means 12% of global crude oil production and 21% of liquidized natural gas (LNG) has disappeared from the overnight market. This lack of energy is unbearable for any country.

1.2 'leg effect' and 17 weeks deadly math

Energy market follows 'just-in-time' inventory. It will take at least 17 weeks to restore pressure in pipelines, reoperate stopped tankers and heat up the 'catalytic crackers' of refineries. In this 4 months period the world will face the void of energy that will breed industrial chaos.

1.3 power grid and communication collapse

LNG deficiency directly affects electricity production. The internet, cloud data centers and communication system without electricity seem to fail. Modern society, which is completely under electricity, suddenly reaches a medieval state.
Courtesy: From the pen of Suresh Zamedia!

And it's all Srila Prabhupada said years ago, 14.5.1973 that this modern economy is going to collapse within the next 50-60 years!

And whose alternative, the spiritual economy was started in 1967, which the useless followers of their own organization didn't continue it, but sold some or most of the farms!

Creepalachia / PADA vs Gurukuli Holocaust / BBTI Director list 04 21 26


CREEPALACHIA VIDEO ON NEW VRNDAVAN

PADA: Yeah a lot of devotees have had no idea what has been the long term public image / historically recorded result / lasting effect / of promoting homosexuals and pedophiles as gurus cults. A program which incidently has a track record of banning, beating suing and killing dissenters. And making pedos into messiahs! 

So many devotees have told me: go away; you are not our authority; stay out of ISKCON's affairs; shut up; do not criticize; be humble and tolerant; it is your karma prabhu; you are an offender; you are criticizing seniors and pure devotees etc.  And they thus helped the regime by suppressing dissent. And as a bonus, have us dissenters made into targets for violence, assassinations and untimely deaths etc. 

And they made all sorts of rationalizing and justification types of arguments, to allow, enable and defend all this deviated process to continue. Well now what? The average Joe citizen from Apalachia is looking at all this and wondering, WTF is going on with these whacked Hare Krishnas? 

And that is why it is said, history it like looking at pottery in the pottery shop. You break it, you own it. I am glad at least some of us said, "wait, do not break all the pottery," and a small fragment of ISKCON or a few pieces were saved thereby. But yeah, the people who caused this -- and enabled it -- are part of the karma of making this result. They own it, or at least part of it.

PADA: GURUKULIS HOLOCAUST

PADA: The whole system of India Bureau program folks -- like Basu Ghosh, Bhakti Vikas swami, Radhanath etc. has all along been big -- if not lifetime -- supporters of their predator gurus like Jokernath. And along with that -- supporting all the associated side programs like burying predators, porno swamis and similar others dubious folks in samadhis and etc. And propping up Mayapur's worse case child welfare fraud leaders like Jayapataka etc. 

And doubling down on re-supporting and re-propping up guys like Bhakti Vidya Purna swami, just at the same exact time I am having them sued for $400,000,000. These are essentially the same sabha folks that were trying to silence us, and shut us down for objecting to Kirtanananda -- when we reported Kirtanananda was "servicing" boys in his motorhome. 

Evidently, their program to have me hunted to be placed into the morgue untimely was all "my bad karma." Yep, everyone who is in favor of their program has good karma, everyone else's karma is bad, especially victims or us whistle blowers. And that justifies any and all of their process. There may be some gray area nuances here and there, but to me, it looks like "the enforced cult ritualistic worship of predators as messiahs project," emphasis on enforced. Same as it always was since we began protesting in 1978. 

As soon as I peeped up, the iron boots came down on my head, and have ever since. And that is why my gurukuli friend said to me recently, out of 500 kids at the 1997 festival, 145 are deceased, at least, maybe more. In other words, the entire GBC strategy the whole time has been, run out the clock, and spend $100,00,000 on legal fees to help keep the clock from timing them out. Sulochana called this "a smash and grab robbery." And he said after that, they will run, hide, evade, obfuscate, use lawyers, and using every trick in the book -- legal and not so legal -- to avoid being exposed. And they have. ys pd

PADA My gurukili friend said that out of all the 500 children at the Los Angeles meeting in 1997, 145 of those gurukulis are now deceased. It is probably more than that, maybe way more, because he has no means of record keeping. And a few of those currently surviving are hanging on by a thread with trauma and opiod problems etc. He told me, the GBC knows all about this and does keep track of them. They know very well they created this holocaust for these kids. 

And they are keeping it hidden because it will harm their Hindu money making scam. They want the meat eating Hindus to take over ISKCON, and they want these kids excluded from ISKCON, because if they include these kids, they will have to answer why these kids have been treated so badly on their control and watch. 

He said, the word comes from the Greek holokauston, meaning “a thing wholly burned”, originally referring to a burnt sacrificial offering. And that is what happened, these kids had to be offered up and sacrificed, so the GBC could make a Hindu money making retirement scheme for themselves. He said there is a good reason "no one knows what is happening to these kids," the GBC is covering it up just like they cover everything else up. ys pd

YEP! The gurukuli Holocaust. Some gurukulis told me this was Auschwitz for kids. Prithu's son made a movie "Burnt Laddus" about the children being like burnt milk sweets (Satanic child sacrifice offerings)? 

And how did you guess, the main people [apart from GBC folks] who opposed PADA in helping these children from being in Auschwitz were -- the Hitler-anugas: Mukunda UK, Prahlad das and Mathura Pati / Prabhupadanugas EU, and their India holocaust lover's branch Dayalu Nitai's HKC Jaipur. They even made a video using Radhanath's cheer leader as their defense team mate. Yep, oral sex with boys in the motorhome-pada's program is being offended by PADA!   

And we had to almost complain to the government that these guys are connected to the Racial Supremacist Nazi type programs. Who better to defend Auschwitz and the holocaust of children program, than the Nazi lover's club? OK unfortunately also IRM's Krishna Kant Desai helped these guys, and they all were upset PADA was inteferring with their lovely Auschwitz / Holocaust for kids program. Wow, kids are being treated brutally, and dying, and they are against saving them. Now you know how all this Satanic child sacrifice happens, it is enabled and empowered. Told ya! ys pd

BBTI IMBROGLIO

Just found the following 2 documents in the files folder on my mobile phone. Have never seen these before, but thought worth sharing...

~•~•~•~

● SPIRITUAL NAMES OF BBTI DIRECTORS ●

Confirmed identifications

Emil Beca → Svavasa Das A legal filing directly identifies Emil Beca as "Svavasa das" in parentheses alongside his legal name. Wordpress Svavasa is a Sanskrit name meaning "self-luminous" or "dwelling in oneself." He is one of the most central figures — Svavasa Dasa was named as one of the four post-settlement trustees of the BBT, meaning he simultaneously held roles in both the BBT trust and the BBTI corporation.

Norman D'Costa → Naresvara Das A legal document directly identifies Naresvara (Norman D'Costa) by both names, confirming he is the BBTI director also known in the devotee community as Naresvara das. Wordpress Naresvara means "Lord of men," another name for Vishnu/Krishna.

Jay Matsya → Matsya Avatara Das / Jayadvaita Swami connection. "Jay Matsya" on the 990 filings appears to be Matsya Avatara Das, a devotee name meaning "servant of the Fish Incarnation of Vishnu." Matsya Avatara Dasa is mentioned in a BBT publishing context as being from Gopiparanadhana Prabhu's Sanskrit school in Govardhana, connected to BBT editorial work.

Separately, Jay Israel (a different person) is the civil name of Jayadvaita Swami, who was a major but now former director. Jay Israel received initiation from Srila Prabhupada in 1968, was given the spiritual name Jayadvaita Dasa, and later took sannyasa in 1978. He served as a BBT director from 1988 until resigning in 2017. Wikipedia

Massimo Brioli → Madhusevita Das -- The Italian director Massimo Brioli is known in the devotee community as Madhusevita Prabhu, who served as head of the Italian GBC and was connected to the Italian BBT operations. Madhusevita means "one who serves the sweet honey" — a name of Krishna.

Greg Stein → Gopal Bhatta Das / Gopal A 1999 GBC resolution refers to "Naresvara and Gopal Bhatta Prabhus" in a BBT administrative context, and the same documents identify Greg Stein as the BBTI president at that time, suggesting his devotee name was in that circle. ISKCON Governing Body Commission. However, this identification is not definitively confirmed in available sources.

Not yet publicly confirmed in available sources

The following directors' spiritual names could not be confirmed from publicly available records:

Legal Name Status

Govinda Cordua (Secretary -- "Govinda" itself appears to already be a Sanskrit / devotee name — it is a name of Krishna meaning "one who gives pleasure to the senses and cows." His surname Cordua suggests Latin American origin.

Robert Burnside (Treasurer) No spiritual name found in public records

Scott Krieger (Director) No spiritual name found in public records

Michael Auggenthaler (Director) No spiritual name found in public records

William Suczek (Director) Vaisheshika Das

Manogaran Ranggasamy (Director) No spiritual name found — name is Tamil / Malaysian

Ramchunder Singh (Director) No spiritual name found — name is already a Hindu/Sanskrit name

How to Find Remaining Spiritual Names

Since not all are publicly documented, here are your best avenues:

1. The Folio Vaishnava Reference Library — a comprehensive database used within ISKCON with devotee records including initiated names.

2. ISKCON Desire Tree devotee directory at iskcondesiretree.com — you can search by first name or location.

3. The BBT's own contact page at bbt.info — they list trustees and staff by their devotee names.

4. VNN (Vaishnava News Network) archives — historical articles often identify devotees by both civil and spiritual names.

5. GBC resolution archives at gbc.iskcon.org — resolutions consistently use devotee names, so searching the legal name alongside "BBT" in those archives is very productive.

It's worth noting that some directors — particularly those from South Asia or with already-Sanskritic names like Ramchunder Singh or Manogaran Ranggasamy — may not have Western birth names that were replaced, and may use their devotee names in a more integrated way with their original names.

~•~•~•~

Excellent — that ProPublica data from the IRS Form 990 filings is very revealing. Here is what you were missing, plus the full picture on directors:
What You Were Missing in the Comparison

1. The BBTI Is Officially Based in Florida, Not California

Despite being incorporated in California in 1988, BBTI is currently located in Alachua, Florida, and has been tax-exempt since December 1990, with EIN 95-4184400. ProPublica This is significant because ISKCON's North American hub shifted to Alachua, FL, and the BBTI followed.

2. The BBTI's Official Self-Description (vs. Critics' View)

The BBTI itself describes the situation as: "The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust (BBT) is a California religious trust that owns the copyrights to the works published by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada during his lifetime. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International (BBTI) is a California corporation that has acted as an authorized agent of the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust since 1988. The BBTI also owns the rights to some later works. The BBT and BBTI work together to protect Srila Prabhupada's rights and serve his will." Bbti

Critics strongly dispute this framing, arguing the BBT never legally authorized the BBTI to act in this capacity.

3. The "Global BBT" Layer — A Third Tier Many Miss

There has always existed a "Global BBT" trustee group made up of some of the trustees of the trusts formed by Srila Prabhupada and, after 1988, directors of BBTI. This group is described as the spiritual governing body of the BBT worldwide. This is a layer most people are unaware of — it blends the original trust structure with the post-1988 corporate structure into a de facto combined governing body.

4. The BBTI's Financial Scale (IRS Data)

From ProPublica's IRS Form 990 data, the BBTI's finances show it is a relatively modest operation:

In fiscal year 2024, BBTI reported revenue of $768,331, expenses of $760,811, total assets of $3,004,487, and net assets of $1,949,828. Notably, 94.8% of revenue came from contributions, with only small amounts from royalties ($2,000) and investment income. ProPublica

This is a key gap in the comparison — the BBTI is not the large publishing house most assume. It functions more as a copyright-holding and licensing body, with the actual publishing done by regional BBT divisions.

5. No Executive Compensation (Recent Years)

In 2024, BBTI reported zero executive compensation and zero salaries and wages paid. ProPublica All directors serve without pay. This has been the consistent pattern since at least 2021.

BBTI Directors (from IRS Form 990 Filings)

These are the current and recent directors sourced directly from official IRS filings via ProPublica:

As of fiscal year 2024 (most recent):

Name Role

Emil Beca President & Director

Govinda Cordua Secretary

Robert Burnside Treasurer

Jay Matsya Director

Manogaran Ranggasamy Director

Ramchunder Singh Director

Massimo Brioli Director

Scott Krieger Director

Michael Auggenthaler Director

William Suczek Director

Previous directors/officers also on record:

• Greg Stein (former President, 2013–2020)

• Jose Fornos / Jose M Fornos Vicens (Director, multiple years)

• Norman D'Costa (Director, multiple years)

A notable pattern: Several core figures — Emil Beca, Michael Auggenthaler, William Suczek, Govinda Cordua, Robert Burnside, and Ramchunder Singh — have appeared continuously on filings from 2013 through 2024, suggesting a very stable and insular leadership group with little rotation. ProPublica

For current and historical BBTI directors, you can search these free public sources:

1. ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer — projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/954184400 — Shows Form 990 filings year by year with officer names.

2. IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search — apps.irs.gov/app/eos/ — Search "Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International."

3. California Secretary of State — bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov — For the original incorporation documents and registered agents.

4. Florida Division of Corporations — search.sunbiz.org — Since BBTI is currently based in Florida.

5. Charity Navigator — charitynavigator.org — For governance and accountability ratings.

For the original BBT trust (not BBTI), there is no comparable public corporate registry because it is a private irrevocable trust — its trustee appointments were made personally by Prabhupada and are documented in the trust agreement itself, not in state corporate filings.
