Deity Worship Ministry
Minister – Nrsimha Kavaca Das
The ISKCON Deity Worship Ministry facilitates and encourages the maintenance and development of deity worship according to Srila Prabhupada’s example and teachings by offering education, resources and guidance to inspire and nourish devotees’ desire to worship the deity form of the Lord. Additionally, we strive to foster within ISKCON the corresponding brahmana Vaisnava culture centered on the service and worship of the Supreme Lord, Sri Krsna. The Ministry is very active in developing and offering training, which includes:
Mayapur Academy (deity worship school), seminars on deity worship
on-site training and evaluation to managers and pujaris at ISKCON centers worldwide, educating ISKCON leaders in the importance of deity worship

[PADA: Thanks prabhu for your question,
[PADA: Thanks prabhu for your question,
[Q]: Is the current ISKCON deity pooja going on according to Srila Prabhupada's standards? And should we adopt their standards in our home programs?
[A]: Unfortunately, the standards established by Srila Prabhupada are no longer being followed. For example, right out of the gate in 1978 the GBC said we need to place the photos of conditioned souls on the altars, and offer the bhogha to them. Later on, they said we'd need to offer bhogha to Krishna first -- in case your guru is deviating "at least Krishna gets the offering." So they changed the order of worshiping, which was also never authorized.
When I was in Los Angeles there was a photo on the altar of a person who was saying "gurus can wear condoms when they have illicit sex" and the Los Angeles temple leaders told me -- they could not comment on this, I had to ask "the ISKCON deity worship ministry." So if the ISKCON deity pooja ministry is allowing, or is not even aware of ISKCON people worshiping these type persons who are being called "Srila Condom-pada," then they have failed to keep the standards.
Then again, if we offer bhogha to people who are engaged in illicit sex with men, women and children, that will contaminate the offering, and the food will contaminate those who eat it with the illicit sex beeja. That will spread the desire for illicit sex among those who partake of such contaminated offerings. And some say, that is the entire plan of the GBC, to contaminate the offerings, and contaminate human society thereby.
My lady friend used to be a student of becoming a witch, and she says the evil witches offer food to Satan to harm and contaminate people, and the GBC offers food to pedophiles -- to harm and contaminate the citizens with pedophile's poisoned contamination into their mental and physical system. It is a principle commonly known in witch craft, they offer food to Satanic beings in order to harm anyone who eats it. And that is what the GBC is all about doing she says. Notice the deity ministry is connected to the Mayapur committee where all the molesting has been going on. They are a cabal.

Henry Doktorski: MALATI TRIES TO COVER UP FOR MURDER
Malati, at the time of Sulochan's murder, was living in the slums of NYC and taking recreational drugs profusely. She was "discovered" by a New Vrindaban chanting party who recognized her, despite her sick condition. She came to NV in the late 1980s, dropped her drug habit, and became one of Bhaktipada's sannyasinis.
She knows nothing about the murder conspiracy, except what she heard from others. In 2007, after Janmastami broke his silence and claimed that Radhanath ORDERED HIM to assassinate Sulochan, Malati sent me an email, as she knew I was studying New Vrindaban history and writing a book, and asked me to help her exonerate Radhanath Swami and defend against Janmastami's accusations.
Since at that time, I already knew, from reading private investigator documents in the Swami Bhaktipada Archive, that Radhanath Swamni WAS INVOLVED in the murder conspiracy, I replied to Malati, "Please call me on the phone, I don't want to talk about this by email." She never called me.

ASTRAL INFLUENCE INFERIOR TO DEVOTIONAL SERVICE

ASTRAL INFLUENCE INFERIOR TO DEVOTIONAL SERVICE
"The clue is given there in the Bhagavad-gita that the living entities are fragmental parts and parcels of the Supreme Lord, this means that all the qualities of Krsna are therefore present in minute quantity in each of His parts and parcels.
That is simultaneously one and different philosophy—the living entities thus have free will because they are parts of Krsna and Krsna has free will, but the free will of Krsna is Supreme while the freedom of the parts and parcels is minute.
So if the living entity out of love subordinates his free will to Krsna that is his liberation.
So if the living entity out of love subordinates his free will to Krsna that is his liberation.
He is no longer forced to act helplessly, but he acts freely rendering loving devotional service to Krsna in every way.
Then we have the practical conclusion from Krsna confirmed by Him in Bhagavad-gita (18:66), "Just surrender unto Me; and in return I shall protect you from all sinful reactions. Therefore you have nothing to fear."
In this way astral influences are also material and therefore they do not affect the devotee who has taken protection of Krsna's internal energy, by surrendering his life and soul in the service of the Lord."
Prabhupada letter to Madhudvisa, 14th February, 1970

We Are to Worship Our Whole Guru-Varga
Srila BV Narayana Maharaja
Guru is the heaviest – no one is heavier than him. He is to be worshiped first. If we glorify him first, then Krsna is automatically worshiped. Guru is the rupa and svarupa of Krsna; he is not less than Krsna. All Vaisnavas, all pure devotees, are guru. Guru is one but he has 2 aspects.
PADA: Narayan Maharaja's guru lineage has actually three aspects, they are often fallen into illicit sex with men, women and children. OK maybe there is a fourth aspect, they might be also having sex with goats, who can say for certain? Narayan Maharaja never explains why he wants little children to worship his pedophiles as acharyas process, and he is hanging out being Tamal's bucket boy.
Only ignorant persons think that I am telling something different from Swamiji.
Those who fell down from sannyasa were never ISKCON and will never be.

PADA: So why did you say they are gurus?
Narada, Vyasa, Rupa Gosvami are real ISKCON. Where are all those ‘gurus’ now? If they will come again to serve Swamiji, then they have some chance.
PADA: They were serving the NM pedophile guru process, not ISKCON.

M Dasi: Blatant isn't it? They "deity program leaders" told us our children have to worship their saint tutu-pada. The official ISKCON deity committee "guru" ... who has been wearing a tutu and a cape, and he is driving around a red convertible with "the boys" in tow. Krishna's successors no less.
ReplyDeleteOften his arms seem to be hugging "the boys." Just a little hugging here ... nothing more! Always the same thing ain't it? And we are the blasphemers and "offenders" and even ... "not accepting the deity committee" if we do not worship saint tutu-pada, whose photo is on the altar. As per the strict regulations of the deity committee.
Why does the ISKCON deity worship committee want us ... and our unfortunate children ... to worship their homos, pedos and other pervs as ... our gurus? And not forgetting ... Hari Sauri is helping along ... with his silks robes and fancy watches ... saying this is all authorized by the deity committee.
Real agenda of the deity committee? Should we not have them sued for making children worship their homos, pedos and pervs, and now some of those kids have permanent PTSD? We hereby bless this food with pedo and perv-ness!
I forgot. We have to serve our kids food offered to their homos, pedos, and pervs ... that will make the kids swell up with Krishna consciousness ... or isn't it really ... what they want is ... homos, pedos and pervs consciousness? And is that not what has happened?
The whole atmosphere has been serving their homos, pedos and pervs society and not Krishna's society ... because their whole aim and object of the Satanic deity committee has been ... to divert us from worship of God and guru ... and send us to their Satan's pedo-loka heaven. Which is mostly what they did ....
Now we have kids with permanent PTSD, while committee are patting themselves on the back, job well done! That is why my friends say, these people are a Satanic child abuse cult and not more.
These deity committee members are a pack of vicious criminals IMHO. They are blocking people from ever worshiping a bona fide guru, so they can shove their homos, pedos and pervs worship into ... our children. And destroy them ... as they have been doing the whole while.
Destroyers of the soul ... who will have to dwell always in darkness ... and there are millions of dark planets waiting to collect them up and give them a new home.
