Jyotika Leaves Her Body (Atlanta)

Jyotika doing what she loved best, giving people the Holy Names. Her passing is a great loss to the greater Atlanta community. Her compassion and love for everyone was exemplary and we miss her association very deeply. Her dedication to our weekly Harinam was a great inspiration to all of us. She really loved Radharani and talked about Her constantly. I pray Srimati Radharani gives her shelter under Her lotus feet.

[PADA: Report is, her car stopped running and she had to pull over to a "blind area" where another car did not see hers, until it was too late and hers was hit. Danger at every step! 

Anyway, in our opinion these type people are mainly trying to serve Krishna and they are not really often aware of the mess the GBC guru's process is all about. At the same time, its becoming more and more apparent that the ISKCON temples are more and more dependent on their Hindu congregations for support, donations, and for members. This lady reportedly first had a Hindu funeral ceremony, which is increasingly the standard for ISKCON. 

One devotee wrote that at his ISKCON temple: They are singing Hindi songs that were never authorized by Srila Prabhupada; The temple managers are Hindus; One of the temple speakers is a big fan of Rama Krishna mission; And in a few years no one will ever know this was supposed to be an ISKCON temple, it will be and Hindu Mandira.
