Written by Krishna Smaranam Dasa
Hare Krishna, all glories to Srila Prabhupada.
It is unfortunate that I have to write this message about my close friend’s departure, Jagannatha Dasa (Micheal James Bulsa). Jagannatha Dasa was always very kind to my family and I. Our friendship grew when he was living in Kentucky because he had limited association. Him and I would talk every single day on the phone.
At last he finally came to Alachua to live in the devotee community. In this way, we would physically associate since I also live in Alachua. He came to my house program, spent two nights, and gave me an exquisite Srila Prabhupada painting that was done by Puskar Das. He will always be remembered as a loyal friend, hardworking person, and an very jubilant devotee. It is truly unfortunate that he left early.
Sincerely,
Krishna Smaranam Dasa.

DD: I believe he took his own life because ... he was experiencing health issues and he did not think he would get the support he would need. And I do not believe the community was ready and able to help him with his issues.

When other people in the area are sick or dying, and they go to the hospital, they often need to make a fundme to collect money for their own care. That is a common story. There is no organized care for them.
Even some of the local karmis told me ... it looks like ... when the Krishna's are sick and dying ... they and their family have to fend for themselves. It looks like there is neglect for the sick and the dying elders. Even ordinary people see this.

Question: What Happens to Those Who in Authority (Guardians) Neglect the Elderly and Helpless Devotees of ISKCON??..........
Question: What Happens to Those Who in Authority (Guardians) Neglect the Elderly and Helpless Devotees of ISKCON??..........
Srila Prabhupada: The defenseless creatures, according to Manu-samhita, are the cows, brahmanas, women, children and old men. Of these five, the brahmanas and cows are especially mentioned in this verse because the Lord is always anxious about the benefit of the brahmanas and the cows and is prayed to in this way.
The Lord especially instructs, therefore, that no one should be envious of these five, especially the cows and brahmanas. Those who are helpless must be taken care of by their respective guardians, otherwise the guardians will be subjected to the punishment of Yamaraja, who is appointed by the Lord to supervise the activities of sinful living creatures. >>> Ref. VedaBase => SB 3.16.10
[PADA: Pretty clear. The guardians of ISKCON must take care of the citizens, or face severe punishment from Yamaraja. What happens when the ISKCON "guardians" are orchestrating banning, beating, molesting, suing and killing the Vaishnavas -- and they are only "taking care" of the few elites and not the mass of rank and file citizens -- even when they are sick and dying? OK Yamaraja is going to get them into his realm, to punish them severely, that is what Srila Prabhupada says herein.
Many people think I am being too heavy, well maybe, but I am just repeating these warnings. OK! They are sinful living beings, and they will be punished. For sure. For certain. Placing their dead corpses in a samadhi will not save their souls from going to Yamaraja either. If anything, that will make their punishment worse for polluting the dham.
Meanwhile, we wish Jagannath all the best. God speed spirit soul!

Enjoy your bogus guru position as much as you can now.
Because later ... you'll have to pay it all back.
With compound interest.
lost ISKCON souls --
the GBC fried out or jettisoned out of ISKCON.
Why not?
It would be something like 97%.
They cannot allow that statistic to be well known.
Bad for recruiting fresh victims.
Parasites always need fresh victims to survive.
