[PADA: Women should be made into gurus, when the ISKCON men gurus are falling down left, right and center? Why not first of all get the "falling gurus" problem solved? If these "men gurus" are falling down left, right and center and are suffering all sorts of physical and mental maladies from "taking too much karma" -- then how will women fare much better? ys pd]
Pranada dasi is with the program of making women gurus. Anyway here is a form they made:

Srila Prabhupada told us not to allow anyone to touch our feet, our we would be acting as a diksha guru, and we would be taking their karma. He said if we take other's karma without authority, we would get sick, fall down, or both, because we are not qualified to take other's karma. Sort of explains the epidemic of sickness and falldown in the GBC guru camp. Not sure why women should be allowed to suffer this same fate? ys pd
ReplyDeleteYes. This is amazing. After all the devastation, scandals, police raids, lawsuits, failures, bankrupting of ISKCON and so on ad infinitum -- created by the "men gurus," now some women are standing in line to be the next "voted in acharyas" -- voted in by the same group of "men" who made the above mess!
ReplyDeleteWhere do I sign up to be the next Jesus of the Jagat? Fools rush in where angels fear to tread?
Some Jayapataka folks now claim he has 35,000 disciples. Wow, I dunno, but in any case he certainly has take up a load of karma from accepting how ever many he has. How is that working out for these guys? Isn't "taking karma" making them sick, fall down, or both?
And this is really the same problem we are having with Torben Nielsen and Ajit Krishna, they complain that the GBC gurus are allowing JAS to re-write the books, then they say, we need to surrender to the GBC and accept one of their gurus? We need to surrender to the same jack-asses who are orchestrating the book changes? So this is all really foolish, but the good news is, more and more people are rejecting all this. Even Bhakti vikasa swami seems to be saying, why are they voting in women as our messiahs, when the men's messiah's ship has taken in so much water, its about sunk already? Should we not have a little more caution nowadays? OK that is what we said the whole time. Hee hee! ys pd
