Bhakti Vikas Swami Defends Predators
SRD: Over the years Bhaktivikash Swami (BVKS) has often prioritized the interests of child sex predators over the protection of Vaishnava children.
Kripa Kara das (KKD) is an Australian devotee who took initiation from Srila Prabhupada.
BVKS presented him as a trust worthy guest of honor and respectable senior devotee to his disciples and allowed KKD to have access to the Gurukula children at ISKCON temple in Salem, India!
In 2017 I had a back an forth exchange with BVKS where he publicly defended and excused the (horrific and violent) child abuse perpetrated by Anirdeshya Vapu das (Bhaktividyapurna).
(In 1994 HH Rasananda Swami wrote to Srila Gour Govinda Maharaja asking about his own understanding on the subject of the Origin of the Jiva.)
"For example, Srila Prabhupada gives the following conclusions regarding the origin of the jiva.
Bhakti Vikas Swami Defends Predators
SRD: Over the years Bhaktivikash Swami (BVKS) has often prioritized the interests of child sex predators over the protection of Vaishnava children.
Kripa Kara das (KKD) is an Australian devotee who took initiation from Srila Prabhupada.
In the '90s KKD was convicted for sexually assaulting two children by the Australian courts and he served time in prison for this.
He also has a CPO case file, which can be viewed here:
KKD's CPO decision clearly states that he has a lifetime ban from performing any service that involves children. It also states that he must share his CPO decision with the authorities of any temple he visits and that if he breaches these mandates, then he will be banned from any involvement with ISKCON until the ICPO reviews his case.
In January this year JKD joined some of the Gurukula children on a long (25hrs) train journey from Salem (Bhakti Vikas swami's program) to Jagannath Puri. From this video and photos we can clearly see that KKD is in breach of his CPO restrictions.

“SR Prabhu refers to my "agenda." Here it is: my agenda in this matter is to oppose the one-sided, destructive propaganda against the only disciple of Srila Prabhupada who has dedicated his entire life for children by developing a traditional gurukula in the style that Srila Prabhupada wanted. Anyone who actually cares for children would be delighted to recognize the extraordinary good that Bhakti Vidya Purna Swami has done, rather than trying to drag him down by citing mistakes (even severe mistakes) that he has made”.
(BVKS 2017)
Leaders teach with their example!
Why would BVKS set such a dangerous and heartless example??? I ask BVKS to please, please, please put an end to this insanity!!! For the benefit of the children that are under the care of BVKS and his disciples, I ask Maharaj to do the honorable and responsible thing and make a public statement where he communicates to the devotee community how he plans to address the current matter involving KKD.
I also ask Maharaj to definitively clarify his stance on child protection and address his historic support of known child abusers.
P.S. In one of the photos we can see Jayadvaita Swami with KKD, another swami with a history of defending confirmed child abusers.
AD: Yes, he raped a 14 yr old girl in the Adelaide temple. He was chasing her, she locked herself in a room, KKD was so desperate, he kicked the door in and then abused her. Now 35 yrs later she is suing Iskcon for $2.5 million.

He allegedly also sexually abused his 2 daughters. After coming out of jail for those offences, he sexually abused his Infant Grandson. Probably the biggest monster from Iskcon.
PJ: And there are probably a number of other victims who are too frightened of the BVKS cult to come forward. And BVKS makes him the keynote speaker? It is frightening how degraded these BVKS people are, how they glorify child abusers and give them BIG posts of authority, and as teachers, and much worse -- BVKS is still in charge of some children. Why has the GBC never stepped up to address this?

THE ORIGIN OF THE JIVA
(In 1994 HH Rasananda Swami wrote to Srila Gour Govinda Maharaja asking about his own understanding on the subject of the Origin of the Jiva.)
Srila Gour Govinda Maharaja replied to his letter,
“The resolution that you have quoted has been passed by our GBC, and as such it is meant for all of the members of our society to follow. You ask what is my own, personal conclusion on this matter, so for your own information, I reply as follows.
"Srila Prabhupada has on many occasions made different statements about this subject matter. He has also himself drawn the conclusion. When the conclusion is given, it is to be understood that whatever might have been said before, if it may appear to be different from that conclusion, for what ever reason, is now cancelled. The conclusion is what stands.
"For example, Srila Prabhupada gives the following conclusions regarding the origin of the jiva.
‘The conclusion is that no one falls from the spiritual world, or Vaikuntha, for it is the eternal abode.’ (SB 3.16.26 purport)
‘The conclusion is that the origin of all life is the bodily effulgence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.’ (SB 4.30.5 purport)
"What is Srila Prabhupada's conclusion, that is what I accept. I accept Srila Prabhupada's own conclusion, that is all”.
PADA: Yes, Gaura Govinda Maharaja said that the ISKCON GBC started the idea of going "Back to Godhead," because we were once with Godhead. Ummm, nope, Back to Godhead was used by Srila Prabhupada in the 1940s, there was no GBC at the time.
What is he even talking about, there was a GBC in 1940? No, but there were tinged with mayavada folks like Sridhara Maharaja -- saying we jeevas originate in brahmajyoti, and GGM says, Sridhara is correct. This is mayavada. ys pd
M Dasi: You mean ... the person who said "ISKCON is full of predators and their enablers" was ... speaking the truth? Am I shocked this is happening ... again? Not really.
ReplyDeleteI'd be shocked ... if they got rid of the predators and their enablers. It is business as usual for the perv lover's club.
Bhakti Vikas puts on a squeaky clean public profile ... but we all know his program is gutter trash with a fancy wrapper. Next time someone says to me ... but Bhakti Vikas is doing a good job, I am going to have to give them a heap of smack down.
He is maybe even worse than the rest of them ... because he is more subtle and sneaky than the rest. What a clown show! Krishna will never be pleased with these cheaters, and neither will we. Bhakti Vidya Purna should never have been allowed to be in charge of a rattle snake ... never mind children. Birds of a feather.
