Note that Rocana dasa coins terms that put Srila Prabhupada in the past. An inactive, historical figure. Dead and gone. Impotent.
Terms like:
(1) “Sampradaya Acarya” (instead of Founder-Acarya, Srila Prabhupada’s authorized title)
(2) “during his manifest lila” (Prabhupada is unmanifest? So much for living in his books.)
(3) “during his ISKCON lila period” (whose ISKCON lila period is it now, and for the next thousands of years?)
(4) “they chose to instead leave Srila Prabhupada’s service even before his lila ended” (Adios Prabhupada, lila ended)
(5) “during Srila Prabhupada’s manifest lila” (all-right, we heard you the first time, already)
(1) “Sampradaya Acarya” (instead of Founder-Acarya, Srila Prabhupada’s authorized title)

(5) “during Srila Prabhupada’s manifest lila” (all-right, we heard you the first time, already)
all strip Srila Prabhupada of power, nudging him off the vyasasana.
Especially sneaky is the popular term “Sampradaya Acarya” as applied to Srila Prabhupada. It sounds big and important, like “Super Acarya” but it is a sly minimization, placing Srila Prabhupada on the list of has-beens.
Rocana dasa is in a fever to kick Srila Prabhupada off the ISKCON vyasasana, so much so that he hates anyone that says Srila Prabhupada should stay on the vyasasana. If you don’t believe me, just say that Prabhupada is still the guru and watch him boil.
Don’t buy Rocana’s lingo. It is deceitful. Mahasana dasa
AGREED! GOODJOB MAHASANA PRABHU AND PADA!
ReplyDeleteajajjajajajaajaRocana and its concepts to deny that Srila Prabhupada's Guru in ISKCON, the nonsense of Sun Sampradaya, Srila Prabhupada is still Guru and founder of ISKCON con Rocana but his studies and theses put other ideas. If we accept the title Sampradaya Acharya why not accept the title of Founder Acharya of ISKCON or spiritual Master? Rocana leaves with a mixture of concepts. Sampradaya Acharya is a method to get rid of maya, and Srila Prabhupada has established genuine method for 10,000 years in ISKCON movement.
ReplyDelete"Kṛṣṇa will accept a devotee who strictly follows the regulative principles and the method prescribed in the various books and literatures published by the authorities. The ācārya gives the suitable method for crossing the ocean of nescience by accepting the boat of the Lord’s lotus feet, and if this method is strictly followed, the followers will ultimately reach the destination, by the grace of the Lord. This method is called ācārya-sampradāya. It is therefore said, sampradāya-vihīnā ye mantrās te niṣphalā matāḥ (Padma Purāṇa). The ācārya-sampradāya is strictly bona fide. Therefore one must accept the ācārya-sampradāya; otherwise one’s endeavor will be futile. Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura therefore sings:tāṅdera caraṇa sevi bhakta sane vāsa janame janame haya, ei abhilāṣa
One must worship the lotus feet of the ācārya and live within the society of devotees. Then one’s endeavor to cross over nescience will surely be successful." (SB 10.2.31)
