A MESSAGE FROM Hrdayananda Das GOSWAMI – MY RETIREMENT



A Message from H.D.Goswami – Retirement

A MESSAGE FROM H.D.GOSWAMI – RETIREMENT

September 28, 2019

Dear Devotees,

Jaya Prabhupada! I am writing to inform you that yesterday I retired from the GBC body, mainly for health reasons. A recent medical exam revealed that in order to preserve my health, I must significantly reduce my level of stress. This arrangement by Krishna confirms what I already felt was Krishna’s desire — that I retire from internal ISKCON debates and management, and instead dedicate my life to writing books, and establishing preaching programs, that hopefully will attract people to Prabhupada’s mission.

Having served on the GBC for the last two years, I saw clearly that the GBC members are working sincerely to manage ISKCON, with a spirit of devotion to Prabhupada. It is the nature of management in this world that people, including devotees, will sometimes disagree. But we must faithfully follow Prabhupada’s system and work together for his pleasure and the welfare of the world.

I am very happy and enthusiastic to dedicate myself to those duties that Lord Krishna has kindly given me. I pray that he empower all of us to act as His instruments to reveal His glory, and the glory of His pure devotee Prabhupada, to a suffering world.

Your well-wisher,

Hridayananda das Goswami


[PADA: Seems to be a pattern? Most of the original founding fathers of the "appointed guru" fiasco like Vipramukhya, Kirtanananda, Jayatirtha, Hansadutta, Harikesh, Bhagavan, Satsvarupa, Bhavananda, Hari Sauri, Rupanuga and many  subsequent other ISKCON "big guns" posed as top tier leaders -- if not gurus. Then as their bogus, maverick and rogue "living guru" process descended into madness, scandal, chaos and criminality, they all collectively drifted off to a sort of anonymous situation, allowing the problems they co-created and generated to snow ball onwards into a larger mess. 

Most of them subsequently officially "resigned" from a leadership post or GBC and they simply left their giant mess behind. This left ISKCON holding the bag for the mess they made. OK this actually left Krishna and Srila Prabhupada  holding the bag for the mess they generated. In short, as a number of people have commented "ISKCON has had to pay for their mistakes." 

For example Rupanuga still says the 11 were appointed as gurus because "he was right there when they were appointed." Krishna wanted conditioned souls to be worshiped as His successors? Then later, Rupanuga simply skips out of town and starts living aloof and apart from the society near Alachua. He demanded we promote the worship of his illicit sex acharya's process, and when his process starts to crumble into scandals, lawsuits, molesting issues, police raids and so forth, he simply exits stage right, allowing the chaos of his plan to continue. 

Sridhara Maharaja did the exact same thing in 1936, he made a false acharya process and when his empire began to crack, he simply leaves the fire in the Math to continue on burning while he exits stage right. 

One GBC guru says he has to avoid going to the USA because "there is a lynch mob waiting for me there." In other words, instead of taking responsibility and accountability for all this self-induced mess, they apparently just tossed a pile of poop into ISKCON and then left the scene of their crime. And they are not coming back to help fix up their mess. They clogged up the toilet, and left the mess for the next customer to clean up. 

*** Danavir has fled to a remote place in Kansas to avoid the mess he has made. He apparently still thinks he was right to promote the false 11 gurus. 

*** His side kick Vipramukhya left and was apparently working as a jail guard? At least he said he was feeling sick every time he gave initiation, so he agreed with PADA that they are taking karma. Apparently that karma overwhelmed his devotional creeper.

*** Hrdayananda has been living in a separate house or apartment for years. He was called "swami 90210" when he was living in Beverly Hills. He thinks the way to fix ISKCON is to "Krishna Westernize" the program, which oddly is also what Kirtanananda wanted to do.

*** Bhagavan was living in a nice hotel and not the temple, and he has been totally living separated for years now. Then he joined the Narayan Maharaja program so he could siphon even more people away from ISKCON.

*** Jayatirtha got his own private house right away and he later "blooped" taking hundreds of ISKCON people out to join his independent camp. These folks also simply left ISKCON en masse with no plan to fix the society's loss. And the result is that Jayatirtha went on working with the Sridhara Maharaja / Gaudiya Matha, so he could siphon thousands of more people people away from ISKCON.

*** Sridhara Maharaja endorsed the GBC's gurus, but his top generals like Tripurari swami, Jagat Guru swami, Panchadravida swami, Sudhir swami and others have all left the ISKCON institution to live separately, if not start their own separated societies and organizations -- to siphon more and more manpower from ISKCON. 

*** Satsvarupa was living in Howard Johnson Motels and was called "HoJo swami." Visoka was telling me what an offender I was for attacking Satsvarupa, but now he only writes about Jayananda and he never even mentions why he supported the illicit sex acharya's process? Nor does he have any apparent plan to fix ISKCON after he helped sink the ISKCON ship by supporting false acharyas? Its another case of pouring poop into ISKCON, and then having no plan to fix that or pick it up?

*** Rupa Vilas was also upset when I attacked Satsvarupa, and it appears he has been living aloof, but apparently he still has sympathy for the molester messiah's project? What is Rupa Vilas' idea of fixing the mess he co-sponsored? To become a teacher at their school in UK, which adds weight to the deviants? He is still promoting their program after all this evidence that its wrong?

*** One prominent GBC told me how disgusting it was that the GBC were all getting ghost busted in 1990, then he later on was voted in as guru in their system.

AND SO ON AND SO FORTH!

As one ex-gurukuli tells PADA, "Srila Prabhupada made a house everyone could live in. Then the GBC made a house even they could not tolerate to continue to live in. They had to leave ISKCON and abandon their own house. They made the stink of their own sh*t hole house so bad, even they could not live within it."    


GURU EMERITUS?

His Holiness Sridhara Swami, a senior disciple of Srila Prabhupada, accepted sannyasa, the renounced order of life, in 1975. Originally from Canada, he spent many years teaching Krsna consciousness in India. He is an emeritus member of ISKCON’s governing body commission.

[PADA: This is how silly things are now. Satsvarupa is now a GBC guru emeritus, and so are many others. That means, they are no longer active in administration. And that means, they have no plan to fix the mess. 


One lady was writing about this with a GBC person and he was telling her to complain by "writing to the GBC." And she said WHO is in charge over at the GBC? And he had no answer. He could not even tell this women which specific person or persons to write to. So this emeritus guru idea is simply another cop out. We made the mess, and we left it for you to pick up.

One younger devotee wrote to PADA very angry that I and other seniors had "left a giant mess for him to clean up." Well maybe so, but at least we got a broom and tried to clean some of it up. ys pd]

Yep, I know. A number of people complain he has no pictures of Krishna, no devotional nothing. I get that.
