Why Some Say PADA Caused Tamal's Untimely Departure?

[PADA: Thanks prabhu. That is what almost all the people have said, Tamal's presence will not be missed that much. A number of people have confirmed that he was only going to India because of the lawsuit, and that means, the lawsuit is really what killed the leader of "the sinister movement." So Krishna arranged all this, Krishna agreed with the mass of devotees, we need to take this person away because he is simply causing grief to others every day. I am glad to have helped this process along, and its good to know you are also doing the "happy dance" to see this trouble maker gone. Actually, only the Prahlad team reports to us on a regular basis their being upset with Krishna for being such a violent person who killed their lord and master Tamal, because they miss licking the bottom of Tamal's shoes.]

Hare Rama, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! Comments to your article: ISKCON is like Syria? That is exactly what I realized after I accepted Srila Prabhupada as my Guru and his Ritvik Order. There is only Shunjavadi left. Only 1 out of hunderts so called "Vaishnavas" accepted the July 9th 1977 letter after I talked to them via email/facebook/chat. So basically I am left all alone, without even money to buy food, without a job education... NOTHINGNESS So I personally understand why many senior devotees seem to be in severe depression doing drugs etc. So basically Srila Prabhupada did his job and proclaimed that only a pure devotee can be Diksha Guru/Acharya. People could either follow or they can make a big scam and suffer the reaction for their severe offense. Following a bogus Guru was hell(I started dreaming of hell and I had no idea why at that time) So I am convinced, out of direct experience, these people are heading to hell.

I beg you to refer Srila Prabhupada's letter, Los Angeles, June 21, 1970 to Tamal Krishna Goswami. In Nectar of Devotion, Part One, 2: The First Stages of Devotion, I have read as follows so if you may consider referring them as well: "Now this sadhana-bhakti, or practice of devotional service, may also be divided into two parts. The first part is called service according to regulative principles...That is called vaidhi, or regulated. One has to do it without argument. Another part of sadhana-bhakti is called raganuga."

Oh to be a retired guru living it up at the disciples expense. First Satsvarupa, now Mahaneedy. Just wait until you get caught then plan a good excuse and fool enough disciples and you can live the good life. Only one problem, this is not what Srila Prabhupada meant by retire. When Bhaktivinode Thakura retired he entered into samadhi. He did not give up being a magistrate to watch TV and have his disciples pay for him to eat and sleep, and have sex, which I shouldn't even say in the same sentence, but that is what many of the ISKCON men claiming to be gurus do.
The like to use the term "Prabhupada men", they claim to be "Staunch Stalwart Prabhupada disciples", when there have been documented cases of these same men having sex with their own disciples and God sisters. In fact, show me a guru who has left ISKCON who hasn't had illicit sex before falling down. IS THERE EVEN ONE? Retiring? First they have to do some service, then they can retire. The only service they have ever done is

To knowingly and falsely present the gurus words out of context and in abbreviated form thereby changing the meaning is as sinful as the bogus gurus who do the same thing to "prove" they are bona-fide by misquoting Prabhupada themselves. You know Prabhupada did not say to become like the Christians. You are as much a hypocrite and a liar as the gurus you oppose, and will take just as much karma for misleading the new innocents who take shelter of Prabhupada's movement, but wind up joining you instead. How far can you lead them back to Godhead? Don't say you are leading them to Prabhupada because you are not. Prabhupada did not start this bogus back to Prabhupada philosophy, ritviks did.

When Prabhupada said, "You follow one acharya, like Christians, they follow one acharya" he was NOT saying that ISKCON should follow one acharya, himself! Print the whole paragraph or two above and below it and you will see what he was really saying, that the Christians follow Christ, they have their bible, they have their priests. So guru, sadhu and sastra must be there.

[PADA: Fine. How come you folks never answer the first question we always ask, i.e.: which acharya should we follow then, you? Just tell us which acharya we are supposed to worship right now, and just get it over with. You keep saying "its not this acharya, its not that acharya," while never saying which acharya you promote?
And in the Vedas that is called "negating" or "neti neti." So far, your idea only cancels out every other idea. Great job, except -- we also need to know what idea you are actually promoting? Rocana dasa does the same thing, "The ritvik's idea is bogus, we cannot worship Srila Prabhupada, thats not in the tradition," blah blah blah, so we should worship no one, or what?
We cannot simply negate away all other ideas and have no idea of our own, that is called sunnya-vada, or nothingness. Just tell us who is the current acharya in your opinion, otherwise, if you have no idea who your acharya is, then our idea makes more sense because at least we have an acharya to point people to. You say there is guru, sadhu and shatra, but you cannot even tell us who is the guru in your scheme of things? All you have established so far is that, you have no guru at all?

Prabhupada said the GBC members should meet at Mayapur every year. I guess Tamal felt Prabhupada was wrong in his case. Let us not forget the famous last words of the great STALWART devotee Tamal when he crashed. According to witnesses, his last words weren't Hare Krishna, but two other words that sound like OH CIT! As in sac cit ananda. Only it wasn't cit that he recited, but SH*T!
Yes, his last words recited at the time of death were completely material. He left a meeting where ISKCON lost ten years worth of laxmi to pay up for the gurukulis being knowingly abused and having the offenses covered over, and then he wanted to be late for his trip to the airport, showing up like he was special like he always did, instead of showing up on time like everybody else. That is why the taxi was speeding that day. Tamal didn't give a crap about anyone else but himself. on

First time I ever heard of a guru "retiring" from being a guru because his own disciples were envious? What will they think of next? His name and fame were ruined, and that was Krishna's arrangement for him to stop being a guru as well? Never heard of that one either. He mentions Srila Prabhupada's "siksha". What kind of siksha is there stating a guru has to worry about his own name and fame? on

MAHANIDHI SWAMI’S LETTER AUGUST 13, 2013 Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Jayate! Dear devotees and friends, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. For your consideration I offer the following explanation of the recent events of my life. The Veda Purana says in Kali-yuga, disciples will become so antagonistic, envious and ungrateful that they will even kill their own Guru. Recently, a few disciples have accused me of improper behavior with a female devotee, and that was publicized worldwide. Contrary to the thousands of false statements, distorted facts, wild exaggerated stories and complete lies, I have never had any illicit relations with a woman or man during my entire devotional life. Of course, this is only possible by the mercy of my Gurudeva Srila Prabhupada, Lord Gauranga and Sri Krishna’s Holy Names. And in no way have I left my eternal divine holy master Srila Prabhupada, and ran away with a woman or some other Guru. Why did I resign from ISKCON, the on

This is fact, Prabhupada accepted disciples and he rejected some of them too. I don't come here often, but when I do, I know I will get the latest prajalpa there is against the GBC, ISKCON, and those who are following Srila Prabhupada the way HE wanted to be followed. He wanted us to cooperate with each other, with the GBC, and with ISKCON, not to fight with them like the Gaudiya Math fought with each other and sold the printing press to see who would get the rights over the temples. Ritviks sound just like the Gaudiya Math to me. They are too much into temples and not at all into following the ORDER of the spiritual master to cooperate, follow the GBC, and serve Srila Prabhupada in the institution he founded, ISKCON. on

Thank you for your hope that he is innocent but GBC has based their statement on first hand accounts of people who lived with him (not those who know him through books and lectures). Please also consider that these devotees are all well educated, well mannered and wealthy. Why would they abandon him? Do we really think they conspired against him? What would they gain? Obviously what they saw made them leave him. But OK believe whatever you want. You can fool some people sometimes and can fool yourself all the time. on
Mahanidhi Swami fall down report (8/1/13)
===========================================
PADA: Srila Prabhupada says that we should not even look at the faces of mundane prophets and leaders (like Alex Jones) because seeing their faces is sinful activity. Prahlad says, lets advertise Alex Jones and make money selling his divine preaching; lets make money by having everyone look at Alex Jones face; and worse, lets all hear the "illuminated speaking" from people like Alex Jones and their paranoid and deluded lectures.
Prahlad even said that since they are advertising for these illuminati people "lots of people are visiting their site," and thus -- buying their DVDs. Alex Jones was apparently at a gun owners meeting saying these gun hunters should have the right to have assault weapons. He is in favor of people having more guns.
Unfortunately, many people with guns in America hunt and kill animals. Why is Prahlad advertising for people who are promoting guns, which often means -- hunting and killing animals, and using the photos and name of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna to help advertise -- persons promoting guns, hunting and killing animals. Even the humans cannot escape from guns?
So that is what this is all about, Prahlad and his group are making money selling these beef eating and animal hunting people's "divine speaking." And apart from that, Prahlad is also saying that ISKCON is a fully owned operation that belongs to Satan. And he says by his publicly advertising that ISKCON = equals = Satan, that will fix the name of ISKCON. Really? Even the bogus GBC does not say that ISKCON equals Satan, we have to give them that much credit. ys pd

That trickily appeased those who wanted him to admit he was fallen at the time, while simultaneously left him a way back in, now he can say he is only retiring from the on

Pada, I do not know who wrote the comment you failed to post but obviously it hit a raw nerve based on your response. So all the devotees can see you deleted the comment you did not like and are ranting and raving like a lunatic to yourself about it. Great job of showing your true nature. Keep up the good work prabhuji haribol. on

[PADA: Right, when we said there is a molesting program going on, then folks like you said this is "made up lies," "raving like a lunatic" and so on, and that is how people like you discredited our complaints, and that means, you folks caused all the molesting. You folks did that by discrediting us, and you are still at it. Don't you have a new mantra yet, after your current mantra got thousands of children victimized? ys pd]
=====================================
Prabhupada said the GBC members should meet at Mayapur every year. I guess Tamal felt Prabhupada was wrong in his case. Let us not forget the famous last words of the great STALWART devotee Tamal when he crashed. According to witnesses, his last words weren't Hare Krishna, but two other words that sound like OH CIT! As in sac cit ananda. Only it wasn't cit that he recited, but SH*T!
Yes, his last words recited at the time of death were completely material. He left a meeting where ISKCON lost ten years worth of laxmi to pay up for the gurukulis being knowingly abused and having the offenses covered over, and then he wanted to be late for his trip to the airport, showing up like he was special like he always did, instead of showing up on time like everybody else. That is why the taxi was speeding that day. Tamal didn't give a crap about anyone else but himself. on
Why Some Say PADA Caused Tamal's Untimely Departure?

First time I ever heard of a guru "retiring" from being a guru because his own disciples were envious? What will they think of next? His name and fame were ruined, and that was Krishna's arrangement for him to stop being a guru as well? Never heard of that one either. He mentions Srila Prabhupada's "siksha". What kind of siksha is there stating a guru has to worry about his own name and fame? on

[PADA: Mahanidhi's favorite person is Satsvarupa, who is also retired. Good question, which previous acharyas retired after their "envious disciples" complained about their bad behavior? ys pd]

Thats why they call off Mahanidhi - because if he joins the fallen guru list the GBC is in really bad shape....if you know what I mean..... on

Sounds pretty much like rascaldom. Nobody spread rumors. It is the GBC statement everybody is refering to. If Mahaniddhi figures he is a guru in good standing why he is unable to inform GBC about their false broadcast? Why he did not immediately write letter above? Why this stonewalling tactics? If he writes on facebook, listen folks, this is all made up lie then this would have never gotten out of hand like it is now. on

MAHANIDHI SWAMI’S LETTER AUGUST 13, 2013 Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Jayate! Dear devotees and friends, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. For your consideration I offer the following explanation of the recent events of my life. The Veda Purana says in Kali-yuga, disciples will become so antagonistic, envious and ungrateful that they will even kill their own Guru. Recently, a few disciples have accused me of improper behavior with a female devotee, and that was publicized worldwide. Contrary to the thousands of false statements, distorted facts, wild exaggerated stories and complete lies, I have never had any illicit relations with a woman or man during my entire devotional life. Of course, this is only possible by the mercy of my Gurudeva Srila Prabhupada, Lord Gauranga and Sri Krishna’s Holy Names. And in no way have I left my eternal divine holy master Srila Prabhupada, and ran away with a woman or some other Guru. Why did I resign from ISKCON, the on

maybe instead of looking for faults in others, it is better to do a spiritual self-awareness and to find a taste of the soul rather than criticizing others.

This is fact, Prabhupada accepted disciples and he rejected some of them too. I don't come here often, but when I do, I know I will get the latest prajalpa there is against the GBC, ISKCON, and those who are following Srila Prabhupada the way HE wanted to be followed. He wanted us to cooperate with each other, with the GBC, and with ISKCON, not to fight with them like the Gaudiya Math fought with each other and sold the printing press to see who would get the rights over the temples. Ritviks sound just like the Gaudiya Math to me. They are too much into temples and not at all into following the ORDER of the spiritual master to cooperate, follow the GBC, and serve Srila Prabhupada in the institution he founded, ISKCON. on

[PADA: So the GBC kicked us out because we did not want to worship illicit sex and drugs, where does the Vedas says we are supposed to cooperate with the worship of illicit sex and drugs? ys pd]
======================================
Thank you for your hope that he is innocent but GBC has based their statement on first hand accounts of people who lived with him (not those who know him through books and lectures). Please also consider that these devotees are all well educated, well mannered and wealthy. Why would they abandon him? Do we really think they conspired against him? What would they gain? Obviously what they saw made them leave him. But OK believe whatever you want. You can fool some people sometimes and can fool yourself all the time. on
Mahanidhi Swami fall down report (8/1/13)
===========================================
PADA: Srila Prabhupada says that we should not even look at the faces of mundane prophets and leaders (like Alex Jones) because seeing their faces is sinful activity. Prahlad says, lets advertise Alex Jones and make money selling his divine preaching; lets make money by having everyone look at Alex Jones face; and worse, lets all hear the "illuminated speaking" from people like Alex Jones and their paranoid and deluded lectures.
Prahlad even said that since they are advertising for these illuminati people "lots of people are visiting their site," and thus -- buying their DVDs. Alex Jones was apparently at a gun owners meeting saying these gun hunters should have the right to have assault weapons. He is in favor of people having more guns.
Unfortunately, many people with guns in America hunt and kill animals. Why is Prahlad advertising for people who are promoting guns, which often means -- hunting and killing animals, and using the photos and name of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna to help advertise -- persons promoting guns, hunting and killing animals. Even the humans cannot escape from guns?
So that is what this is all about, Prahlad and his group are making money selling these beef eating and animal hunting people's "divine speaking." And apart from that, Prahlad is also saying that ISKCON is a fully owned operation that belongs to Satan. And he says by his publicly advertising that ISKCON = equals = Satan, that will fix the name of ISKCON. Really? Even the bogus GBC does not say that ISKCON equals Satan, we have to give them that much credit. ys pd
