Bhakti Vikas Swami Evades ISKCON's Child Suicide Issue

PADA: Bhakti Vikas swami is now a self-advertised savior of the world's children from suffering and suicide. Why hasn't BVKS been showing all this "child welfare concern" when there has been a growing child abuse and suicide epidemic in his own ISKCON society -- among their numerous child abuse and molesting victims? Instead, all along BVKS has been pounding the drum for supporting the ISKCON GBC's management system, and having all of its children accept and promote people like Jayapataka, and other leaders of the molester webs and nests empire. 

And under their system, children have been reporting being abused if not molested, left, right and center, and then there has been a growing suicide problem among victims of the BVKS process. Recently BVKS said that many of his God brothers had "taken up the service" of being gurus, as if being another Jesus is something we just self advertise ourselves as -- and its all fine. "I have taken up the service of being as good as Jesus and God, any questions"? So we are as good as Jesus, therefore, our alleged multi-Jesus society's children have been abused left, right and center. Does that make any sense at all pilgrims?

In the Bhakti Vikas swami post-1978 "ISKCON guru" process -- we have seen a problem of the society's children experiencing all kinds of suffering, depression and even suicides. Many / most of the former "ISKCON kids" now avoid if not boycott the official institution. And very few of them have any active roles in the official society. OK the BVKS empire failed these children, and on a horrible scale. Apparently, at least according to some victims, 50 percent or more of the ISKCON kids were mistreated. 

Mostly, these victims subsequently "voted with their feet" to avoid if not totally abandon ISKCON. How did this mass exodus take place -- if the leaders have been so worried about the welfare of these children? BVKS correctly says -- if a smaller number are committing suicide -- that means there is a much larger and widespread problem (of stress and depression). 

The smaller number of suicides is thus the tip of the iceberg of the suffering. How did so many ISKCON kids come to the stage of stress and depression, and even -- suicidal thoughts, if not suicidal actions? And this is a program that evidently cares deeply about other folks' kids, but not their own society's kids?

The evidence is in -- there has been a wide pattern of child suffering, some would call it an epidemic -- in the Bhakti Vikas swami (BVKS) guru program. BVKS is correct, the suicides are simply the tip of the iceberg of the size of the problem in his program. This has actually been a very much larger scale problem affecting nearly ALL the ISKCON children, because they either were neglected, exploited or abused themselves, or they know of various friends, associates, class mates or peers who were. End result? The ex-ISKCON youth have mostly lost confidence in the leaders overall, including BVKS.

Of course these ex-kids probably almost all know at this stage -- that there has been a big abuse process going on -- because its pretty much public info at this stage. Yet BVKS seems to handily -- skirt over -- the mess he and his GBC guru's program have caused for the ISKCON children, and he shifts concern over to the regular mundane society's children. Our ISKCON society's children suffered badly, but that is not the problem, its the suffering children in the mundane society. Seems a little uncaring / aloof / callous -- to say the very least.

Avoiding the elephant in the room? 

Again. Why is the welfare of the ISKCON children seeming to be frozen out of genuine concern among these leaders? And they thus seem to never come to grips with the ISKCON children's issue, but feign concern for children in unrelated areas?  

Therefore the real issue BVKS avoids is, why has there been a widespread problem of child mistreatment in the BVKS / ISKCON GBC managed program. Of course none of these leaders (which simply includes BVKS) ever seems to address how and WHY this odious child mistreatment process evolved in their own society, where these leaders have become prominent enablers, leaders, cheer leaders, apologists, gurus and supporters of the abuse regime and / or its core leaders and enablers. 

BVKS is chopping away at a few outside weeds in the "mundane society's" children, but misses chopping away at the internal child abuse weeds that evolved under his own feet in his own ISKCON society. In short, the BVKS process has co-coerced the children of ISKCON to worship their GBC's illicit sex with men, women and children guru program, which has been banning, beating, molesting, suing and assassinating the Lord's Vaishnavas. Then he fails to mention, why there has been a suffering and suicide problem within children victims of his own GBC's program, going on right under his own feet, self evidently under his own oversight? 

Never mind the (now ex) children -- there seems to have ALSO been a subtle  suicidal tendency -- or de facto suicide epidemic -- among numbers of various ISKCON adults -- who tend to get fatal ailments like cancer -- and they die prematurely when compared to the so-called mundane society. Even my "karmi" nurse friend is astonished at how so many "Krishna devotees" are getting fatal ailments at or before the ripe old age of 60, or perhaps mid 60s, and she says "its some sort of epidemic."

There has been testimony from a number of BVKS's program's ex-child victims from ISKCON, who reported various severe if not extremely odious abuse problems, such as -- being starved, beaten, molested, and deprived of basic needs like proper food, clothing, medical care and even -- shower soap. 

Some reported being forced to eat green moldy rotting oatmeal, while BVKS and his pals have been eating huge opulent feasts. In fact BVKS's sannyasa guru Jayapataka was bloating up to near 400lbs. for his eating like a pig or indeed more like an elephant. Some victims told PADA the BVKS program is like North Korea, where the big fat cat leaders eat nicely, and the peons have to find cock roaches to put into their grass and weeds soup. 

Elephant-pada the Acharya

Other victims told us they were in "Auschwitz (concentration camp) for kids." So its good that BVKS is finally addressing that children need care. Yet he spells out no plan for how he is going to mend fences with the existing ISKCON ex-children and help them recover from the abuse regime they suffered under -- and which BVKS has been a prominent leader / enabler / and supporter of. 

Of course, as soon as we turn off the de facto gas chamber's cyanide gas supply for the Auschwitz for kids program (because its killing children) - then GBC defenders like Sanat / Mukunda / Krishna Kirtan / Janardan / Panchali / Prahlad das (Paul Coats uk) / Dayalu Nitai's HKC Jaipur folks et al. -- all start screaming like stuck pigs, why are we turning off the cyanide gas in our nice Auschwitz for kids program? We need to get PADA off the internet, and turn back on the cyanide gas! Well jeepers, sorry for spoiling your wonderbar party!     

A devotee said that when he first met Jayapataka, the first thing he asked very aggressively "who is your guru"? And Jayapataka wanted to know -- very insistingly -- which GBC guru he would select. So they insisted that either newcomers or the society's children would have select one of the members of their homosexual pedophile guru's process in order to participate in the ISKCON society. Of course, those of us who selected Srila Prabhupada as our guru (and we protested their child abuse empire) have been driven out on a rail. 

Meanwhile, a newer devotee told me I am right, people like Jayapataka are "suffering the bitter fruits of bad karma" Yet BVKS is still saying these people should take karma? Notice below that a woman realizes the faults of the BVKS program, despite BVKS claims he and his men party are more advanced than women.

[From another conversation] PADA: Yes, the ISKCON GBC says gurus have to be 2/3 show of hands voted in, then the guru can be committee managed and thus chastised, censured, suspended, monitored for deviations, and sometimes excommunicated. None of this occurs in the actual guru parampara from Krishna. Lord Balarama is the adi guru of the guru parampara, and only His actual representatives are bona fide. ys pd

SJ (a female): Putting Guru and the act of being committee managed in the same sentence????? Something is terribly amiss!

PADA: So BVKS has pushed the women and children under the rug, lets face it. Anyway, lets be nice to children, and lets start by not following BVKS and telling children they have to worship an illicit sex with men, women and children guru lineage. Lets help him get this child protection process moving, sign me up! ys pd]
