Tripurari mj against "over-glorification of Prabhupada"

[PADA NOTE: Tripurari swami has been reportedly going recently to places like North Carolina, to promote his own books. A few devotees called me from there to report that they are very upset that he is promoting his own books and not Srila Prabhupada's books. Apparently, he is also publicly criticizing the Prabhupadanugas and Bangalore's program and so on. 

We are amazed that Tripurari still doesn't get it, his "Shiksha Guru" "BR Sridhara Maharaja"  promoted a bi-sexual deviant as the acharya of the GAUDIYA MATHA in 1936, and that program failed miserably. Sridhara Maharaja's bogus guru (Ananta Vasudeva) fell down into illicit behavior and "dissenters" were beaten with bricks, has their faces pushed into dogs stools, and some were killed. All of this resulted in the ruination of the Gaudiya Matha mission, as Srila Prabhupada states over and over. 

Oddly, one of the followers of NARYANA MAHARAJA (BV Suddhhadvaditi swami) is recently complaining that the followers of NM's "guru successor" aka Tirtha Maharaja, might have violent followers in Bengal who would attack people for criticizing Tirtha's illicit behaviors. In other words, these Gaudiya Matha folks tend to promote bogus gurus, and this results in potentially violent cults. And then after 1977, Sridhara Maharaja promoted the GBC's 11 bogus gurus, and that program has also failed. Tripurari swami simply does not seem to comprehend the fact that -- these bogus living gurus are being rejected all over the place. Moreover, a number of us have been compiling the criminal and violent out-croppings emanating from these bogus gurus, and this does not paint a pretty picture.]  


19 Years Ago, the Swami Trips BY: DRAVINAKSA DAS

Regarding the recent article "Returning to the Fold: Letter from Swamis B.V. Tripurari and B.G. Narasingha", the hot button is in the 7th paragraph of Tripurari Swamis 1994 letter, where the Swami shares what he believes 

(Swami BV Tripurari) "...to be the greatest problem facing ISKCON today. Iskcon is suffering from, of all things, over glorification of Srila Prabhupada." 

Then he says this breeds fanaticism, quoting and understanding Srila Prabhupada out of context.

[PADA: Right, Tripurari's guru Sridhara Maharaja wanted us to worship the 11 GBC "self appointed acharyas" as ISKCON's gurus, and the result was fanaticism and murders of dissenters, and so on and so forth. And Sridhara Maharaja spawned the same exact fanatical program in 1936 when he promoted a homosexual deviant as the guru there, and dissenters were also murdered and so on and so forth. And what exactly is "over glorification of Srila Prabhupada"? Does that mean we are failing to glorify Sridhara Maharaja and his bogus guru projects?]

DD: Actually this is not ISKCON's disease at all. (Even though misquoting Srila Prabhupada is not out of fashion amongst the management.) The real illness is the leaders not following Srila Prabhupada's instructions. For example: Srila Prabhupada said never to sell the 12 story New York temple. When the guru is away, the rats will play and the preaching has suffered to this day.

"Don't change the books". Now someone says that changing books is the way. Will the teachings be lost?

"A guru must be at the topmost level of Krishna consciousness." Now a guru is a conditioned soul. This cheating has caused so much suffering. I've seen grown men cry. Whole zones of devotees have deserted their posts, hundreds leaving the society all together.

"The children should not be hit... they should be well fed... they should not be forced to chant..." Who put the perverts in position and hid their sins until the gurukulas collapsed?

Here is a hot one: "No more sannyasa. It has become a farce." (1977) As usual, Srila Prabhupada is right on the button. The blooped swamis that I've met have suffered enormously. But the latest Srila Bankaccount Maharaja keeps the orange lungi cult alive.

If you examine ISKCON's problems and even your personal problems, the cause is one: disobeying the orders of the Acharya, Srila Prabhupada. And Srila Prabhupada is just trying to get us out of a miserable place to enjoy eternally with Krishna.
