RE: prasadam.org (ISKCON) ys pd 07/02/11

Well I'd say http://www.prasadam.org/ is a start, they are finally acknowledging directly or indirectly that the GBC's gurus are not absolute, the emporer has no clothes, ok to some extent, but they are not really yet offerring the real alternate conclusion, that no gurus were appointed and that there was only a system of proxies (ritviks). Maha vishnu swami has also wrote that the GBC gurus are kanisthas, and ISKCON suffers from KAID, ok, so if these gurus are kansithas, how are they acharyas? Thus he is also playing around / skirting / prevaricating with the idea, he does not offer the full conclusion. The conclusion is: only a pure devotee can take us back to God head, and so when Jayadvaita says that their gurus are often found engaged in illicit sex with men, women and children, fools on this level are not even advanced as dogs and pigs according to Srila Prabhupada, he says even animals like dogs and pigs are not homosexual child molesters, so their gurus are not even as advanced as animals, and this is all being avoided which tends to keep the status quo, that less than animals are acharyas. Of course any step in the right direction is good, but these are clearly baby steps. ys pd
