Bhakti Vikas Swami's Program Attacking Jesus (Again)

 

[PADA: Thanks for your question BD. 

Yes! It is a good question, why do ISKCON's GBC's folks and / or their big leaders like Bhakti Vikas Swami keep saying that the "ritvik idea" (worship of Jesus -- as is done in the Church) is "the bogus Christian idea"? And instead they want us to worship their "living gurus" who are often -- not only mundane conditioned souls -- but perhaps: deviants, debauchees, pornography addicts, sexual predators, drug addicts, alcoholics, sometimes pedophiles, and let us not forget -- self-advertised as "disciples" of LSD promoter Timothy Leary -- and that is, if they are not criminals etc.

Correct, they ARE saying that worship of a personality such as Jesus is a bogus deviation, while worship of their deviated if not sexual predator pals is bona fide. Of course Bhakti Vikas Swami's main claim to fame is -- that he is always "advising and correcting" his co-messiahs, because he believes that messiahs are commonly corrupted deviants who need "correcting." And thus -- thanks to God -- BVKS is here to make sure God's successors are behaving properly by his constantly admonishing and correcting them.      

Good question! Why would anyone say that worship of a pure devotee -- like Jesus -- is the bogus Christian deviation, all because, people should instead be worshiping the GBC's "gurus chain" -- which contains debauchees, perverts, intoxicated fools etc.? Of course, this is a question we get all the time really.   

You are right. Oftentimes when we interact with the followers of various GBC's gurus like Bhakti Vikas swami (BVKS) -- these followers will argue that we cannot worship a pure devotee like Jesus -- or Srila Prabhupada -- as the current guru because "then we will be like the bogus Christians." OK wait a minute, we cannot worship Krishna's pure devotees -- because then we will be bogus? 

What! And of course -- these leaders often specifically target worship of Jesus as a big problem because "we don't want to have people worship a pure devotee like the Christians are doing." Yep, evidently worship of their pedophile messiah's project is superior to worship of Jesus.

Recently a follower of Bhakti Vikas swami challenged me on this, and I told him it is common for GBC leaders and their followers to attack the worship of Jesus as "the bogus ritvik idea." Whereas Srila Prabhupada says that worship of Jesus is bona fide and moreover "me and Jesus are brothers" and he never condemns the worship of Jesus or any other pure devotee as "the bogus ritvik idea." This follower has had no good answer, and has slipped off the radar. Basically there is no good reason to block the worship of Jesus in favor of worshiping GBC's / BVKS's molester messiahs. 

So their policy is -- let us get rid of the worship of pure devotees and let us all get into the superior program! OK, can't wait to join, sign me up! Whom else does the GBC / Bhakti Vikas swami people want us to worship instead of Jesus or another pure devotee? What is the superior process which supercedes worship of God's pure devotees?

I almost forgot! The ISKCON GBC's / BVKS's program has a huge (dog manure?) pile of -- illicit sex with men, women and children "gurus in a chain from God" -- which contains: sexual predators, homosexuals, porno swamis, pedophiles, drunks, drug addicts, deviants, criminals, orchestrators of murder of dissenters and so on and so forth -- all set for us to worship. And for us to have our children worship too! Yep, we have to save the world by getting our children to worship their pedophile messiahs project. And STOP the worship of the real saviors and messiahs. And let us have a policy to ban, beat, sue, harass and assassinate the people who do want to worship real messiahs!

And thus, we need to STOP worship of folks like Jesus -- so we can instead have the world worshiping the GBC's / BVKS's pals i.e. debauchees, deviants, pedophiles, sexual predators etc. from their so-called "guru chain from God." Oh wait? Srila Prabhupada says the BVKS idea of fallen and debauchee gurus is a hellish "guru chain" from the most obnoxious regions of the universe. 

And Vedic scripture says these bogus gurus -- and their dedicated following participants -- from their "debauchee's guru chain" -- are destined to go to the deepest regions of darkness in the universe -- after their current bodies are finished. Indeed, Srila Prabhupada says these false guru advocates are "narakah sah" -- they are already residents of hell -- now. They are not only going to hell, they already reside there.

Worse, the BVKS debauchee's guru chain of messiahs from hell is being artificially linked to a chain of bona fide gurus who are in an intimate loving exchange with God, technically called "rasa." So he is mixing debauchees and pure devotees as one combined guru chain, technically called the fault of "sahajiya-ism" or cheap imitation. And that is why Srila Prabhupada says -- these sahajiyas are gliding to hell. Gurusuh narah matih -- naraka sah. Narakah sah -- already in hell. 

How is worship of BVKS's deviants, perverts and pedophiles process = superior to the worship of a pure devotee, like Jesus or Srila Prabhupada? OK worship of deviants is not superior to worship pure devotees, rather it is a deviation. BVKS ilk never tell us -- where in the Vedas -- does it say that worship of pure devotees is bogus, because we are missing the real process -- of worship of their illicit sex deviants, pedophiles, drunks, criminals etc. as "the guru successors to God"?

BVKS says we should serve purely, with no motive. Therefore, let us promote the worship of our GBC's pedophile messiah's guru lineage, because they will give us a guru rubber stamp and a "zone" -- in the largely Christian town of Salem, India. Same thing the Gaura Govinda Maharaja, his people told me, GGM has to serve with, "cooperate with," and acquiesce with, the GBC's deviant guru's process -- so he can get a building, a zone and -- various and sundry assorted gifts, benefits, perks, awards and cheap adoration handed out by the pedophile messiah's club.

In sum! Worship of Jesus is the bogus ritvik process. And what is the bona fide process? GBC / BVKS and their worship of his illicit sex with men, women and children -- guru lineage process. And ex-ISKCON gurukuli student victims of their pedophile messiah's club just now says to PADA they -- and almost all of their "ISKCON GBC guru's school" "kuli" peers are experiencing -- depression, PTSD, and there are problems of drinking, drugs, even suicidal behavior -- out of frustration, anxiety and grief they got from -- the GBC and BVKS program. We need to spread more of that around to children? 

So they had to toss their own ISKCON children under the bus, and toss the worship of Jesus under the bus, to promote their pedophile messiah's worship process. And yes BD, they keep telling us "we are doing something while others are not." Well yes, they are doing something, they are ruining other's lives and stomping jack boots on the worship of pure devotees. 

None of this is new, even when Krishna was here there were many people who said -- He does not deserve to be worshiped and worshiping Krishna and / or His pure devotees is "deviation." These people have always been here. ys pd    

Srila Prabhupada... “So Sidhara Maharaj and his two associate gentleman unauthorisedly selected [elected/voted in] one acharya and later it proved a failure. The result is that now everyone is claiming to be acharya even though they may be kanista adikari with no ability to preach. In some of the camps the acharya is being changed three times a year. THEREFORE WE MAY NOT COMMIT THE SAME MISTAKE IN OUR ISKCON CAMP.”
