Paramananda dasa is -- a guru?

Dear PADA: RE: Paramananda Das. 

He is from Denmark and currently lives in Washington DC. He was originally initiated by Kirtananda Swami, and when he fell down he was re-initiated by Narayan Maharaja, who supposedly told him he can be a guru and initiate his own disciples. He tricked me into accepting him as my diksa guru. 

He says he can do a better job that any of the other Gurus, and only he can manage temples better than anybody else. He has openly stated that he is a madhyama adhikari, and that he is not an uttama adhikari, but he went ahead and accepted some disciples by telling them he is a diksha guru, but most of them have already rejected him. 

He finds faults in Srila Prabhupada and his own Guru Narayan Maharaja. He says he lives by book distribution, but he actually sells stickers and beads, and only sometimes tries to sell a book. He was doing that the day of my initiation, along with my wife and another couple. We have all rejected him since his only business it to find faults with everyone, including Srila Prabhupada. He used to tell me how Srila Prabhupada is wrong on this point and that point. This is the same thing he did with every other devotee he speaks to, about his believing he is the only perfect one, or something like that. 

He is not even authorized by the GBC, or for that matter the Narayana Maharaja matha, nor any other matha, so he auto proclaimed himself to be a guru without Srila Prabhupada's order. Please expose him before he rips apart another devotee's life He also has tons of problems with a lot of other devotees, temples, and their management. He does not get along with other devotees, he does not consult with other devotees, he does not work with other devotees, he does not listen to us who are the only people who care about his program, he is critical of the real acharyas, he is simply another bogus self appointed guru. Hare Krsna Radhe Shyam !!!
