ISKCON Italy Scandals Update 10 14 25

 

PADA: I cannot understand why ISKCON has banned the followers of BV Puri from participating -- citing that BV Puri was hi-jacking ISKCON followers -- and then Dayanidhi openly attacks anyone who criticizes the Gaudiya Matha guru BV Puri, evidently he is still in the BV Puri camp. Meanwhile he seems to also be part of the ISKCON camp? 

This seems to happen a lot. The GBC decrees that followers of Sridhara, Narayan, BV Puri and others are not allowed in ISKCON, but the followers somehow or other seem to be able to infiltrate back in again. And unfortunately, a lot of child abuse regime leaders and sometimes even perps are allowed to roam around ISKCON, and in a number of cases they were never banned or censured in the first place. 

Anyway, here we go again, lots of manipulation seems to be going on in an around the ISKCON situation, because -- self evidently -- the leaders are not able to clean up other people's mess because they are incompetent, or colluding with other evil actors. 

I recall when some competing Narayan Maharaja camp followers were calling the police on each other for welfare and food stamp fraud. And the police came and said, "You people all hate each other's guts, you should all avoid one another and never see or talk to each other. Move away from one another and avoid ever talking to each other because -- you are hateful people." Yep, even the police could figure this out. 

Anyway, it looks like the Italy scandals problem is gradually getting uncovered, as are scandals in many other places. This is good news and bad news. Good, the boil needs to be popped, bad, this discourages regular Joe people from participating in the whole religion. I see now why Srila Prabhupada says the false followers are going to a lower birth than the regular Joe karmi, because they make religion into a cesspool, and give Krishna's name a black eye.

PADA has no means of verifying any or all these reports, but generally our rule is "where there is smoke there is fire." If anyone else has comments on these issues send them to us via our email -- and let me know which article you are commenting on.

(ENGLISH VERSION)

The Cursed Temple of Tribogna and Malini Devi Dasi of Satvatove

Concerns from America

Some of our colleagues have reached out from the United States, alarmed by what is happening in the Italian Yatra in Liguria. Before diving into the details, it is necessary to provide a brief introduction.

Owner of the Tribogna Temple

The temple of Tribogna (Genoa), the so-called Prabhupada Dham I.S.K.CON., is owned by the Turin-born Govardhanapuja Prabhu, nicknamed “Massimo Boldi” (bottom right in the photo). A man who has been posing as a brahmachari for over thirty years, yet is an openly homosexual individual with a fondness for very young boys. His excessive wealth makes him untouchable in the eyes of devotees, who bow to him not out of spiritual respect but greed. 

They all know he regularly hands out thousands of euros left and right, especially to the most corrupt temples such as Villa Vrindavana. His figure is the caricature of a spiritual philanthropist: money tainted by vice, paraded as devotion. 

The Dayanidhi Vanacari Fraud

Less than ten years ago, this “benefactor” was conned like the most naïve fool by Orlando Cecchini, alias Dayanidhi Vanacari (top right in the photo), one of the most infamous swindlers in the history of the Hare Krishna movement in Italy. He competes only with the parasite Pietro Giarola, alias Prabhu Das. Dayanidhi extracted around €200,000 from him with the tale that he would buy the current Prabhupada Dham temple on behalf of ISKCON Italy, promising the money would be returned. 

A crude lie. Govardhana never saw a cent, neither from Dayanidhi nor from his worthy accomplice Prabhu Das, with whom Dayanidhi has now shamelessly reconciled. In the end, to avoid losing everything, Govardhana had the property retitled in his name again, paying another €20,000. A complete farce.

Intrigue and Violence in Tribogna

That temple soon became a foul sewer of intrigues, plots, and low blows against the mafia-style figure of Massimo Brioli, alias Madhusevita Prabhu, the Italian GBC head – but we’ll return to that later.

The Israeli Danesvari and her husband Francesco Brambilla, alias Gopinatha Dasa, nicknamed “Homer Simpson,” ran the place like a dive bar, to the point that two years ago local authorities had to intervene to break up a brawl between resident devotees. The devotee Mangalai grabbed Muraricaitanya Dasa by the neck, causing bruises, scratches, torn shirts, and even damaged cars. A miserable, disgraceful spectacle. Later, the violent Claudio Scatolini, alias Keshava Das, punched another devotee in front of the elder Mahachandra Das. Is this supposed to be a spiritual centre?

Murari and Dayanidhi’s Debts and Scandals

Murari was recalled to India by his guru Jayapataka Maharaj, but he left behind only ruins and about six thousand euros in unpaid debts. His predecessor Dayanidhi remains the mark of misfortune. Everywhere he goes, he leaves behind wreckage and scandal. He opened several temples in Liguria: all failed, all closed. 

His private life was a disaster – his wife Nandimukhi left him because she had already started an affair with their son’s teacher. And worse: eyewitnesses saw him slapping his wife in front of other devotees. In our previous articles we reported the horror of the cigarette lighter burns inflicted on the then little Sanaka Rsi (manager of the page Vedic Enquirer). Violent, deceitful, and a serial liar. This is Dayanidhi Vanacari.

Abuse and Exile

Not content with having extorted hundreds of thousands of euros from Govardhanapuja, Dayanidhi scammed other devotees with false promises. He squeezed €15,000 from Gopinath and Danesvari, never returning a cent. In 2020, after his advances towards a foreign female devotee visiting the temple, whom he harassed with perverted behaviour, Madhusevita banished him to Athens. It was Danesvari herself who reported his actions to Madhusevita by phone, revealing that the “monk” was no longer able to control himself.

Construction Debts and Corruption

His miserable reputation hit rock bottom with the case of foreman Mauro: 

construction work already discounted to €10,000 but never paid. Only Nitai, son of Madhusevita, stepped in to represent his father (who should have acted on behalf of ISKCON) and settled for €6,000 to avoid a lawsuit. Then came an illegal building addition: during a municipal inspection, a door built without a permit was discovered, installed by Dayanidhi as a personal whim. 

A pompous clown who dragged the public image of ISKCON Italy through the mud. Many also remember how nearly forty years ago he fled with the temple’s cash box from Padua, amounting to 180 million lire, along with his wife and his servant Silvano.

Prabhu Das and the Plot Twist

After this disgrace came Prabhu Das, the scavenger who leaves debt and destruction wherever he goes. In Tribogna he did the same: disappeared like a petty street thief, leaving only wreckage behind.

The Triumphant Return of Dayanidhi

But the real twist is that Dayanidhi, despite everything, continues to return triumphantly as if nothing happened. Welcoming him with open arms is Maurizio Pace, alias Mahachandra, nicknamed “Topo Gigio.” The same man who for years had called him “a psychopath” now treats him like a brother. Mahachandra himself is a criminal who served four years in prison for heroin trafficking. This is the level of so-called spiritual leaders of Prabhupada Dham – a circus of criminals and hypocrites disguised as devotees.

Malini Devi Dasi: the Spiritual Manipulator

The worst came with the arrival of Marie-Hélène Glasheen (bottom left in the photo), alias Malini Devi Dasi, invited to manage the temple by Gopinatha, Danesvari, and Govardhanapuja. Nicknamed “the witch,” she prefers to be called “prabhu” to blur gender distinction and give herself an air of authority. 

Her reputation as a manipulator and spiritual predator precedes her: in Florida, she left a trail of scandals and misconduct. Fleeing from America, she chose Italy as her new field to poison, settling in Tribogna with American disciples completely brainwashed (between them there is Ananga Manjari, initiated through the "Permanent Link" system, who was spiritually trained precisely at Satvatove). Our American contacts warned us: Malini is not there to serve Krishna but to carry out a dark agenda, exploiting the complicity of the corrupt.

Satvatove and Lifespring

Together with David Wolf, Malini is co-founder of Satvatove (Alachua, Florida), a provider of “transformative communication” and coaching. Behind the spiritual façade, dozens of testimonies speak of manipulation, hard-sell pressure, and emotional exploitation. Satvatove is seen as Lifespring disguised as Hare Krishna – an insult to Srila Prabhupada. American commentators state it clearly: David and Marie are monsters who use the name of Krishna to enrich themselves and destroy lives. The same Malini, now transplanted to Tribogna, brings that toxic shadow into the heart of the Italian Yatra.

Many commentators denounce the manipulative use of spiritual language and the offence to the legacy of Śrīla Prabhupāda. Just read some of the devastating public complaints collected here:

https://satvatove-institute.pissedconsumer.com/.../RT-P...

– “Participants are not toys for the amusement of David and Marie.” (18 May 2024)
– “It’s Lifespring with Hare Krishna words stuck on top.” (4 Oct 2024)
– “I wish I had never met David Wolf and Marie Glasheen.” (5 Aug 2024)
– “After encountering monsters like Marie and David…” (3 Jan 2025)
– “Be-Do-Have works as spiritual manipulation: forced identity, language that distorts teachings, no coherence with the Gita.” (7 Feb 2025)
– “Satvatove brings dishonour to the name and legacy of Srila Prabhupada.” (14 Feb 2025)
– “If you hate God and hate Srila Prabhupada, you’re more likely to love Satvatove.” (7 Feb 2025)

A testimony that confirms the manipulative and dehumanising nature of the organisation:

https://satvatove-institute.pissedconsumer.com/they-didn...

The link with Lifespring is not a minor detail. Lifespring was a notorious LGAT (Large Group Awareness Training) engulfed in lawsuits, media investigations, and even deaths during seminars. In the United States, it became a symbol of psychological manipulation and mental pressure techniques disguised as “personal growth.” Despite this, it is David Wolf himself who openly admits on Satvatove’s official blog that he imported the concepts directly from Lifespring:

https://satvatove.com/grungies-payoffs/

The official Satvatove course registration form is the ultimate proof revealing the sectarian nature of this organisation:

https://satvatove.com/.../Satvatove_Foundational_Seminar...

– Mandatory arbitration: victims cannot sue in court
– Forced confidentiality: those traumatised must remain silent by contract
– Waiver of punitive damages: even if you’ve been manipulated or abused, no fair compensation is possible

A document written specifically to protect the organisation, silence victims, and ensure impunity for those running the show.

The Double Game of the Prominent Link

Behind Satvatove lies an even more insidious and poisonous theological and strategic project: the Prominent Link, devised by David Wolf, aka Dhira Govinda. They do not declare themselves as ritviks, but only out of convenience: they know perfectly well that, if they did, they would be expelled from every ISKCON temple and lose access to donations and facilities. 

They therefore remain inside, feigning devotion, while secretly implanting a network of corrupt ideology, suspended between opportunism and heresy, poised to undermine the system of living gurus from within.

As early as 2002, the GBC issued an official condemnation of Wolf’s book “Śrīla Prabhupāda: The Prominent Link”, accusing him of attacking the principle of living gurus and spreading dangerous, misleading theology. Despite this warning, Wolf and Malini have continued their systematic infiltration, moving from ISKCON temple to temple, weaving networks of influence like ruthless spiritual predators.

In 2016, in Alachua, Malini took part in a fully ritvik-style initiation, personally placing the neckbeads on a initiate (Hladini-śakti), a symbolic act that exposed their true agenda: a spiritual shortcut disguised as devotion, designed to remain inside ISKCON and “take what can be taken,” while quietly promoting an ambiguous, corrosive, and deceptive cult.

They are neither reformers nor ritviks: they are spiritual predators in the grey zone, able to infiltrate, manipulate, exploit, and drain vitality from both sides. Their network is built on calculated hypocrisy, subtle lies, and strategies of control, where bhakti becomes a commodity and sincerity a hurdle to be destroyed.

Malini Devi Dasi has never truly left Satvatove: her Facebook profile states that her role ended in 2021, yet in 2024–2025 she is still presented as a speaker for “Advanced” seminars, continuing to give lectures and public talks within the Satvatove project, even if she no longer holds an official leadership position. It’s merely a clever attempt to avoid the looming legal storm.

Two personal GoFundMe campaigns – one for her birthday and another to support her Bhakti Yoga Retreat project – solicit money for herself and her centre, while Satvatove courses remain paid events. The so-called “Virtual Bhakti Yoga for Women” is part of her Bhakti Yoga Retreat project, an online ashram with no independent reviews, no safeguarding policy, and no grievance channels. Total internal control, zero external guarantees: the same Satvatove logic, but even less transparent.

Conclusion

In short, this Malini Devi Dasi “prabhu,” now financially supported by the devotees of Genoa, is yet another plague that has fallen upon the Italian Yatra, already devastated by scandals, illegality, abuse, and corruption. Behind her façade as a “spiritual trainer,” she carries a technology of manipulation derived from Lifespring, with the same toxicity and legal traps. The image of Srila Prabhupada and bhakti has been defiled beyond repair. Tribogna is not a temple: it is a cesspit of violence, greed, and betrayal. A living insult to Srila Prabhupada’s mission. Whoever enters that place will not meet Krishna, only the ghosts of lies, corruption, and manipulation.

Jane Wallace Video / Why I Left ISKCON 10 13 25

 

PADA: Thanks JD, you got it, the meat eating Christian ritviks are embraced by the ISKCON leaders, but the Krishna ritviks are beaten, sued and killed. Yep! Meanwhile, another Hindu guru's temple followers came to the ISKCON temple to hand out fliers to advertise their program. Everyone knows ISKCON is a Hindu program, including the Hindus. And yep, a number of them eat meat. 

===

PADA: Jane Wallace's show was our first participation in a TV news broadcast after Sulochana's departure. Jane Wallace first of all asked me -- is Kirtanananda's sitting on a big seat covered with the hands of many little boys "pedophile heaven." I said yep it is. She said thank God we met you, we thought all the Hare Krishnas supported this pedophile's worship, because -- almost all the rest of the Krishna people we interviewed thought -- there was nothing wrong. OK people like the GBC and Radhanath could not figure out what she could figure out -- in two seconds.

She also said she would have yanked that bogus guy off his seat all by herself if this had happened in her Church, and she could not understand why all the Bhagavad Gita warriors were going along with all this nonsense. She is right. 

The bulk of the devotees at the time, especially at New Vrndavana, were all going along with this. And almost all of the devotees would not support me and Sulochana -- and many or most of them opposed us. All of that empowered and enabled the pedo pooja program, to the peril of ISKCON. 

And to the peril of the children of ISKCON, as we see herein:

WHY I LEFT ISKCON

BORN IN ISKCON -- BUT DISTRESSED 

PH: 

I was born into ISKCON and grew up believing it was a place of love and protection. What I saw, and what many others have seen, was different: silence around abuse, leaders protecting abusers, and families like mine left broken and forgotten.

This letter to Srila Prabhupada is my way of giving voice to that pain and asking for change. It speaks for my mother, my sister, and for friends who were also hurt in gurukulas and devotee homes. We are still living with the effects — illness, trauma, fear. I share this because I believe that truth is part of healing.
____________________________________________

Dear Srila Prabhupada,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to you, the Founder-Acharya of ISKCON.

I was born into your movement. My parents served with their hearts — they were married in a temple room, chanted sincerely, and built their lives around devotion to Krishna. My mother was joyful, creative, and full of love. She taught me to offer every drawing, every meal, every moment to the Lord. We made backdrops for the Deities, cooked for Krishna, and went on long walks singing kirtan. I fell asleep to her chanting every night.

My father worked hard and served the temple, but he was distant from us. His spirituality often felt like rules without love, service without tenderness. Over time I watched him grow angry, and my mother grow smaller. I saw him belittle her, insult her, and call her names no wife — no devotee — should ever hear. I saw her do everything for the family, for the temple, and for him, and still be told she was not enough.

When the abuse became unbearable, we left — my mother, my sister, and me. We had no safety net, no protection from the community we had served all our lives. We were homeless. No prasadam was brought to us. No one from the temple checked if we were safe. Not one devotee reached out. No one asked if we needed help, food, or shelter.

Srila Prabhupada, this is what I cannot understand. You gave the world the holy name and taught that love for Krishna means love for every living being. Yet within your movement, I have seen women and children neglected, silenced, and abused.

I am not the only one who has suffered. I know friends in Mayapur who were hurt too. I know a young boy who was suicidal because of what happened to him in the gurukula. I know families where mothers were abused, and children watched in silence. I know fathers at temples — even at the Manor — who hurt their own families, using Krishna consciousness as a weapon. 

My close freind now in South America went through a similar experience, her parents abandoned her, her mother stayed with her father even through he abused her emotionally. If there is domestic abuse, there is child abuse.

And there are far too many children in your family who have suffered in silence.
I’ve heard of mothers abandoned by their husbands, of devotees forced into isolation, of respected men who have abused and still lead kirtan, still give lectures, still sit on vyasasanas. I’ve heard of Lokanath Swami, who harmed a girl and yet continues to sing in temples. I’ve heard of others — leaders and gurus — who have done terrible things but are still protected. My own father was protected too.

So how can I stay in ISKCON, Srila Prabhupada?

How can I walk into a temple room with this pain in my heart? How can I bow before the Deities knowing that so many abusers are honored, and so many victims forgotten? I feel betrayed. I feel angry. I’ve lost trust.

I don’t believe in the leadership anymore. They protect each other. They protect abusers. They call it humility or forgiveness, but it’s silence — and that silence destroys lives.

You taught that Krishna consciousness is compassion, not control. Love, not fear. Yet what I have seen is pride, denial, and cruelty in the name of service.
This year, Srila Prabhupada, I left ISKCON. I had to. I could no longer stay in a society that speaks of purity but hides so much pain. I still love Krishna — the Krishna of my childhood, the one who smiled through my paintings, who I offered flowers to, who I spoke to when I was scared. That love remains. But the institution that carries your name has broken my heart.

I want your movement to reflect your compassion

I want no child, no mother, no devotee to ever feel the pain we felt. ISKCON should be a home we all feel safe in, but we don't, so much abuse in your movement.

Please, Srila Prabhupada, if your spirit guides ISKCON, then let there be truth. Let there be safety. Let there be real love.

Your granddaughter

(with deep wounds) still prayering that my own father's eyes open, and he heals)

MB: Congrats to you. You don't need them to have a relationship with god, or to assist your spiritual progress. You never did. Its a control system they created by brainwashing us to think that our individual spiritual life depends on being part of the group. "Devotee association".

My own parents to this day truly believe that if they were to leave the temple that their spiritual life would be over. Just like that, in a second gone. Thus is the brainwashing.

It was never normal from the beginning. Why should children have to live in a fanatic setting where the basic tendencies of a child are frowned upon, waking up at 3 am and spending their days doing "service". Not allowed to have fun, and brainwashed to think desires are maya. 

They were training the next generation of non remunerated workers. From day one its been wrong. What kind of future awaits children that grow up in the "ashram"? Because they are not going to pay your bills, or look after your toddler. Like you said its a sad story, marking 2 generations. The first generation literally spent their whole lives blindly serving the institution, missing out on having a normal family experience. And in the process, destroyed their family.

BR: Gosh thanks for sharing! So true and so unfortunate💔 For a movement that's supposed to be about love, acceptance compassion and mercy - we see fear, abuse, guilt, shame and repression. Somehow there's love and acceptance for abusers ironically. So messed up. Thanks for opening up and sharing. I feel your pain and I want you to know you're not alone. You haven't left Iskcon. Iskcon left you. Iskcon failed you. Krishna is always going to be there ❤️❤️❤️

Bhakti Ananda Goswami Departs + ISKCON's Interfaith Program 10 12 25



Can someone bring me some pot cookies in Vrndavana?
My migraines are acting up again!
Hee hee.


JD: I got it already. The meat eating Christian ritviks are welcome in ISKCON, the devotee ritviks are banned, beaten and sued. What I thought! Makes perfect sense about what is really going on.

Henry Doktorski:

Rest In Peace, Bhakti Ananda Goswami (David Sherman)

I attended Bhakti Ananda Goswami's sannyasa initiation ceremony at New Vrindaban, around 1992. Radhanath Swami presided at the fire sacrifice. I always liked him, for his friendly personality and his incredible research about world religions.

I also corresponded with him around 2015 when I was writing "Killing For Krishna." He is cited in the book several times, but he requested to remain anonymous, as he was a bit fearful that my godbrother Janmastami might cause him problems. He told me Janmastami in the 1990s had sent him postcards in the mail threatening karmic retribution for his prior support of Bhaktipada.

[Photo of Bhakti Ananda Goswami with Sister Piety in the New Vrindaban prasadam room adjacent to the temple room.]

Penelope Anderson says: I have just heard of the passing of the extraordinary personality Bhakti Ananda Goswami. When he was healthier he participated in several forums i was involved in such as Progressive Vaisnavism. He had a busy schedule but still made time to discuss various philosophical points with me and others.

One quality i particularly respected was his bold denunciation of the culture of child abuse within ISKCON. and his compassionate and empathetic nature.

From Soolabha Doyal

"Today I honour the passing of the saint and Vaisnava scholar Srimad Bhakti Ananda Gosvami Maharaja. Being a disciple of Srila Prabhupada, initiated leader of Jhansi League of Devotees, being an active Pureland Buddhist and consecrated Catholic Priest, the pioneer of interfaith paleo-linguistics, a master of multi-faith religious history, who's research and revelations unify all present and past religions in the name of Sri Caitanya-deva.

Maharaja brought down the walls of prejudice and sectarian spirit among followers of the one true God, who manifests in various ways throughout the ages. One great contribution was his tracing of the spread of the Holy Name of Hari through every culture of the Old World (Afro-Eurasia). Much of his work has been archived by his followers Elijah Dobkins (https://hierophant.netlify.app/) and Vedic Empire Productions.

May he continue to serve Sri Gauranga, Sri Krsna and Sri Radha in the spiritual world."


PADA: OK I am always totally bewildered if not pinching myself to see if I am dreaming or not, when all sorts of ISKCON people are promoting multi-cultural "interfaith dialogue and acceptance," including Kirtanananda's establishing a deity of Jesus. Right, we should all love and appreciate all other religions, especially the Christians -- who follow the ritvik system -- of having priests offer baptism on behalf of Jesus. Wow, where do I sign up?

Oooops! Not my experience whatsoever. As soon as I say people should worship Srila Prabhupada as the acharya, then all sorts of ISKCON people ESPECIALLY from ISKCON places like NEW VRNDAVANA say -- oh no, God forbid, that is the bogus Christian's ritvik idea! Stomp that out quick! 

You ritviks are totally bogus and need to be banned, beaten, sued, and maybe -- killed -- for promoting the bogus ritvik idea of worship of a pure devotee! That is strictly verbotten in ISKCON and you will be punished badly for promoting such blasphemy, as to suggest it is a good idea to worship a pure devotee, and not worship our homosexuals, pedophiles and lusty intoxicated fools like Jayatirtha as the messiahs of the jagat.

Does the term double standard apply here? Or hypocrisy? Or just bone headed irrational cultism? Yeah we love the people who follow the ritvik system, which is why they need to be hunted and killed! And the GBC has made umpteen hundreds if not thousands of position paper directives on forbidding the worship of pure devotees in ISKCON aka the "bogus ritvik idea."

NOT allowed! 

Meanwhile the ISKCON leaders are meeting with Protestant, Methodist, Pentecostal, Church of England and Catholic priests -- or even Muslim leaders -- all day and night, to make cheezy photos of themselves embracing these priests. Yep, we love the ritviks to pieces, which is why, we have them banned, beaten, sued and -- killed. 

How does this make ANY sense? OK it is the highest form of hypocrisy ever made in religion's circles. The good news is, I was loved so much that I was only chased with bats, before the FEDS stepped in and saved me from getting a .45 slug in the head. OK the police told me these people HATE your guts, and they want to KILL you. And they will kill you -- if they think for one minute that they can get away with it. OK. They have zero percent love for us ritviks, lets fact it.

That means all this interfaith "pro-ritviks" messaging is -- to me at least -- simply false propaganda, ok lies, and has no actual bearing on the situation going on in ISKCON. The ritviks are commonly banned, if not beaten -- sometimes to a pulp like Kulashekar was, if not sued -- like Bangalore was -- if not -- killed. 

In sum, the Hare Krishna's rtiviks are not allowed, but the mundane religion's ritviks are embraced. The upshot now is, the Western people are abandoning the ISKCON ship, because yeah, the Westerners are following a tradition of worshiping a pure devotee like Jesus (the ritvik system), and so they are going to reject a religion that worships deviants. 

Bhakti Ananda did not want his statement published until he departed, fearing for his safety. OK, I hear this a lot, well yeah prabhu, you are right, but I am never going to speak up, these people are too scary. OK and what happens to the children when the people who know there is a problem -- do not speak up -- and defend those children? Yep, we all know what happens to those children.   

As for Janmastami well this is another baffling case. First, he wrote to apologize for being part of the group that was hunting us. He says, 1,000,000 obeisances at your feet prabhu! He was very friendly and apologetic. Then he oddly went haywire, and started blaming me for this and that happening. Dude! I was a taxi driver in San Francisco, I had no powers to change the ISKCON world. 

And no one wanted to join me because you guys were frightening them. Sorry, you guys are 99.99% responsible for the whole imbroglio, OK I am too, but only .001%. You guys are the main cause of all this mess, please do not blame the messenger! So I had to block the guy's e-mails because he was resorting to swearing and cursing at me, and had no control over his communication skills. Evidently, after that his house was raided by the police for his pot program.  

Which shows me -- he has a lot of anger management issues, if not intoxication issues, which is why he was chosen to be their goonda. Anyway, these interfaith people are just beating around the bush in my opinion, and avoiding the real issues that plague ISKCON. And they are making ISKCON look all the more like a hokey compromised Hindu Bindu hodge podge or "it is all one religion" etc. -- while not fixing the giant mess in their own religion. OK it is a cop out in my estimation, to avoid dealing with the actual situation on the ground in ISKCON. 
 
October 12, 1993: On this date in history 32 years ago, in a letter to a godbrother, Hansadutta explains, “The bottom line about Kirtanananda Swami is he has an overwhelming, deep-seated ambition to be a holy man, . . . a religious mentor—in short, a guru, or to put it bluntly, ‘The Guru of the Gurus.’ In one word, he wants to be Prabhupada.”
For more about this topic, see Henry’s book, “Gold, Guns and God,” Vol. 9, p. 218.

PADA: Yeah Hansadutta sends everyone from Berkeley to "the only pure devotee on the planet Kirtanananda" at New Vrndavana, then sends three goondas back from there to take me out. He knew this was a hoax the whole time, but he wanted -- yep -- to be the next Prabhupada himself. And he wanted me -- dead. ys pd

Fake Sadhu? / BBTI Russia / GBC Deceit / Collapse of Banks 10 11 25


=====




ANOTHER FAKE SADHU?

APD: With great sadness, we must inform the community that Sriman Uttam Krishna Prabhu (India) has been added to the list of our reports. Uttam Krishna Das presents himself as a peaceful "brahmachari" monk, but in practice, he likes to surround himself with young girls with whom he constantly chats privately and even receives from them some letters inappropriate for a “celibate” monk.

During his previous visit to Chile, and given that we were friends, I (Janardan) discovered one of those letters and saw it with my own eyes. After that, I tried to speak with him to offer my support and make him aware of the danger of his situation, hoping he would reflect and step down from his platform as a “celibate preaching monk,” considering that in some countries he is even treated almost as a guru.

When the scandal of BV Vana and his sect of thugs came to light, Uttam Krishna chose to cling to his selfish share of influence over others rather than to reality. Therefore, unfortunately, we now have to make public the deception of this false monk so that the community may know the truth and decide whether or not to continue being around him, especially if they have young daughters.

RUSSIAN NEWS: BBT, changes Prabhupada books, and the "Indian" facade at the Moscow International Book Fair—who is replacing Prabhupada and why? An expose.

While the power brokers in the spiritual marketplace are churning out "official" credentials, a quiet substitution is taking place behind the scenes. At the Moscow Book Fair (Indian pavilion, supported by the Embassy and the Ministry of Culture), we were once again presented with a "complete library" of Srila Prabhupada—but the truth is far from on display. Below are facts, documents, and questions that the organizers and "official" publishers are unwilling to discuss.

In short: there is historical, legal, and editorial confusion between the various organizations using the BBT brand; at the same time, independent researchers and a number of former and current devotees are publicly pointing out unauthorized edits and the fact that some of the "new" editions do not match what Prabhupada originally intended. This can't be dismissed as trivial quibbles—it's a question of the authenticity of sacred heritage. Details below.

1) BBT at the fair—is it really the "original BBT"?

The organizers and the Indian delegation did indeed announce the presence of the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust at the Moscow fair and the participation of the Indian side (Ambassador V. Kumar and the National Book Trust). These official reports are included in the press releases and news from the Indian pavilion.

However, there has been long-standing legal and identity confusion between several organizations with similar names—the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust (the original trust established by Prabhupada) and Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International, Inc. (BBTI), a corporation created later. Independent resources and schisms within the Vaishnava community detail that these are different legal entities and that rights and control over the texts have been disputed.

2) Editorial Changes – Official Acknowledgment and Criticism.

The alarm is not unfounded: back in 2019–2022, the BBT and related agencies created editorial committees and publicly discussed the "issue of changes" to Prabhupada's books—meaning, the representatives themselves acknowledged the discussion and intervention. This isn't just rumor—there are public BBT materials stating the creation of an Editorial Review Panel to resolve disputes over edits.

At the same time, independent websites and groups (critical of the current management of Prabhupada's estate) are publishing specific accusations: changes are being made to bring the texts into line with the current ideology and practices of the governing bodies; there are examples of reworkings and deletions, as well as loud claims of "rewriting" of texts. These materials document instances in which many devotees have demanded transparency and the preservation of the author's texts.

3) BBT vs. BBTi – Who is "official" and whom to trust?

The history of these disputes is long: legal and public disputes over rights, copyright transfer, and who has the right to publish "original" texts are contained in archived publications. Some websites representing the viewpoint of opponents of the current team call BBTI an "inauthentic" organization that appropriated the brand and rights years after Prabhupada's passing. This explains why exhibitions sometimes display "BBT" in a broad sense, while in reality, a completely different legal entity may be operating under this name.

4) What does this mean for the reader and for the fair?

— When official venues (including national pavilions supported by embassies) provide a platform for publications with questionable editorial histories, this undermines the reader's right to the authentic text and misleads the public. We can't simply dismiss this: we are talking about the movement's core texts.
Conclusions and demands (what should be required of organizers and publishers):

1. A full public declaration of who exactly represented BBT at the fair (legal name, office, contact information).

2. A complete list of the publications whose versions were exhibited, and information about what editorial changes/translations were made (and by whom).

3. Access to Prabhupada's archives/original dictations/author's manuscripts for independent verification, so that readers can compare.

Srila Prabhupada's name must not be allowed to become a brand for political and internal maneuvering. When government support (the Indian pavilion, the embassy) and a merry-go-round of PR reports mask real editorial and legal confusion, the public must ask: whose version is being presented? We have a right to the original, not "negotiated versions" or "administrative adaptations." The truth must be transparent - and we will demand it.

GBC’S DECEIT # EIGHT of TEN:


OFF-THE-WALL CONCLUSIONS, SELECTIVE OMISSIONS


(1) GBC stated that since many devotees ate Srila Prabhupada’s maha prasadam in 1977 and they did not become ill, therefore Srila Prabhupada was not poisoned. This insane logic assumes Srila Prabhupada was poisoned via food that was then distributed. However, most likely, poison was given intermittently or in food / drinks which were not distributed. Poisoners would know not to poison others too, to avoid detection.

PADA: Yeah, the poisoners did not know it would not be a good idea to poison everyone else. So they would have poisoned everyone else too. Really?

(2) GBC never explained their hero Tamal Krishna Goswami’s “mercy killing” interview, Srila Prabhupada’s poisoning statements, nor Srila Prabhupada’s conversation with his caretakers, who clearly accept and acknowledge Srila Prabhupada’s homicidal poisoning. Why?

(3) A GBC film included a clip from Primeau Forensics on how whispers are often misinterpreted by what the listener wants to hear, recommending a forensic analysis, and yet, the GBC never countered eight expert audio forensic studies on these whispers with their own study. Why?

PADA: Yeah, Balavanta was the GBC investigator. He is neighbors with the people doing the forensic whisper study. Then he suddenly bails out and quits. Hmmm?

(4) GBC stated that caretakers would not talk / whisper about poisoning on tape, so the “poison theory” is ridiculous.

BUT: multiple forensic studies have verified the poison whispers, so it appears the caretakers thought the tape recorder could not pick up their background speaking! Also, why were they whispering?

PADA: Yeah this looks like a weak idea. I myself did not know the whispers were on the tape, it takes some good audio equipment to bring them up. The whispers are further evidence, plain and simple.

(5) GBC says the “poison theory” was concocted from nothing due to malice. What matters is the messenger’s hidden motives, not the real evidence? This is standard propaganda methodology: to attribute an ill motive to the adversary and discard the facts. But the evidence of poisoning is irrefutable, certified, and not a theory.

PADA: Yeah attack the messenger.


(6) GBC book: “To suggest that Srila Prabhupada felt like he was being poisoned by his most trusted men implies he didn’t have common sense to immediately send anyone away he did not trust …he could summon mystic powers and know who was betraying him … Srila Prabhupada just went along with it? Srila Prabhupada would have outsmarted his envious disciples and is offensively portrayed like a confused martyr, willing to sacrifice his own life, being so tolerant, compassionate.”

This errant interpretation negates Srila Prabhupada’s poisoning? This idea that he would have saved himself and stopped the poisoning is flawed. Jesus accepted his crucifixion, carrying his own cross, and did not use mystic powers to save himself. Did Haridas Thakur stop his tormentors? What of Prahlad or Mirabhai? Yes, the pure devotee has inconceivable mercy and tolerance.

PADA: Does not seem to hold a lot of water either. Jesus knew he was in trouble, he could have left the area, but he stayed. What difference does that make?

(7) GBC: “With all due respect to Dr. Morris and his Hyperpure Dermanium Generator Detector at Univ. Missouri, he simply isn’t a toxicological expert.” But Dr. Morris did not make a toxicological evaluation of the cadmium findings (he simply did the tests).

Meanwhile, the GBC has no experts on 250 X normal average hair cadmium, and instead, they ridicule Dr. Morris. Such hypocrisy! Dr. J S Morris has testified in court hundreds of times and his credentials were never questioned.

(8) GBC: “If this were heard by a trial jury, the prosecuting attorney would have to explain with great detail where the poison was acquired, who obtained it and how they learned to administer it.”

PADA: Nope, why would this be required? A lot of these things can be found by doing some research in a library. Never mind that, some poisons tell you on the bottle that this product can kill a person.  

Actually, the hair tests are court-quality proof that Srila Prabhupada WAS lethally, homicidally poisoned, and who did the poisoning is a separate issue. The GBC ridicules the notion of cadmium poisoning as “complicated, difficult.” But cadmium salts are readily available and can easily taint food/drink, and hair tests prove a lethal poisoning took place. A six-year forensic study by Truth Labs (India) determined the caretakers did it, likely led by Tamal.

(9) GBC: “This poison conspiracy has caused so much alienation, hurt, resentment, and chaos in all branches of the Vaishnava community, and this rumor has been so disruptive to Lord Chaitanya’s movement.” Well, the truth can hurt, but ultimately it heals, and honesty is the best path. Why hide from or fear the truth? We must use our intelligence to ascertain the truth. Study the facts and evidence-- judge for yourself.

(10) GBC: “The hair samples, which changed hands many times, were not stored in a clean, controlled environment and could have even been replaced with other hairs by a zealot disciple, are all possible.” This is false. The hair samples’ chain of custody was impeccable, fully documented, and the GBC had custody throughout (and no one else). Dr. Morris was engaged by the GBC’s Balavanta das. This doubt-mongering is dishonesty and deception. Why does the GBC disparage the tests they arranged with Dr. Morris and invited others to pay for? Further, there is so much other evidence confirming the hair tests.

Collapse of the Artificial Banking

January 21, 1977, Bhubaneswar

"Rāmeśvara: (...) And you mentioned about the gold standard, that this is very bad, this artificial standard of monetary exchange.
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. It is very bad.
Rāmeśvara: In the future this is something that we should try to correct.
Prabhupāda: You should introduce coin, real money.
Hari-śauri: Real gold coins. No paper.
Prabhupāda: Anyone has got money… It is fact. And what is this nonsense, keeping some paper and thinking that he has got money? How cheating it is going on, from government’s side. And therefore artificial inflation. You can print, so the price is increased. Because you haven’t got to pay him real money—you print and pay him—and he will ask, “Give me this money. Then I’ll supply.” “All right, take.” You print and pay.
Rāmeśvara: It’s definitely a means that the government has for controlling. Because they can withdraw money, pull it back out of circulation by increasing the interest the banks give, or they can get more money in…
Prabhupāda: Anything done artificially.
Rāmeśvara: Yes. They control the amount of money, interest on loans. It’s all standardized from what they call the Federal Reserve system. This was introduced during the Depression by the bankers.
Prabhupāda: Whatever they do, when you receive money in the paper it has no value. Bad money. It is bad money. It is not good money.
Rāmeśvara: Actually, most purchasing in America is done on credit now. Even a step beyond paper money is credit—no money, buying on no money; loans.
Prabhupāda: That is in India also.
Rāmeśvara: We don’t find these things in Vedic culture too much. Now one thing is…
Prabhupāda: There was never paper money.
Hari-śauri: No. They used to…
Prabhupāda: That barter system: “You have got rice; I have got something else. So I give you something; you give me something.”
Hari-śauri: But isn’t inflation still possible even with coins? Even if you have gold coins, isn’t inflation still possible?
Prabhupāda: No, gold is acceptable by everyone.
Rāmeśvara: The main point is the barter system.
Hari-śauri: Yes, well its value is recognized by what it can…, by its purchasing power.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Hari-śauri: So you can alter… Say, you like have one gold coin. You can alter what it…
Prabhupāda: No. If you introduce real metal coin, then there will be no inflation.
Hari-śauri: There’s only a certain amount of metal.
Prabhupāda: That’s all right. The exchange… The more demand, more price. So suppose here is a spectacle. I am demanding ten rupees. So both of you are customer, and you are asking for this spectacle. Then I am increasing my price. So if you can pay me by printing paper, you’ll accept any price. That means artificially price is increased. Is it not?
Rāmeśvara: Yes.
Hari-śauri: So the idea is that with coins the man who has the goods, he can’t…
Prabhupāda: Therefore… Suppose he has got ten coins, you have got ten coins; I am wanting fifteen coins. So there will be no competition. I have to accept either from you or you, ten coins.
Hari-śauri: Right. Because there’s only that much money.
Prabhupāda: But if I increase price and if you print… If you have got power to print, “All right. Take fifteen coins, er, fifteen rupees.” But you print and pay me. But if the gold, the coin, is there, you cannot increase on that.
Hari-śauri: He can’t increase the price of the product, and the man who got…, ‘cause there’s only a certain amount of money there.
Prabhupāda: But I can increase the price, provided you pay me. But by printing, it is easier. But if you have to collect coins, that will be difficult, so there will be no artificial increase of…
Hari-śauri: Yes. Coins is a check…
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Hari-śauri: …on charging too much.
Prabhupāda: That is wanted. And these rascals, they are artificially printing paper as money. And I am a rascal; I’m demanding more because I have got customer.
Rāmeśvara: The difference between Vedic culture and…, the Kṛṣṇa conscious culture and the modern culture is very, very dramatic, very big difference. So the transforming of society…
Prabhupāda: And besides that, if we concentrate in farm project there will be no need of exchange, because I’ll be satisfied with my products, that’s all. There is no need of exchange. Whatever I need, I get in my farm.
Rāmeśvara: Weaving, cloth.
Prabhupāda: Everything you get. So I haven’t got to go outside for exchange. If you are satisfied in your farm, I am satisfied, then where is question of exchange? There is no need of artificial… So this banking, “fanking,” everything will collapse automatically. There is no money, who is going to keep money in the bank?"

Italy Scandal Update / Former Lokanath Follower 10 11 25


More PADA and friends music.



Namananda and the sudden violence (ENGLISH TRANSLATION BELOW)

Former Hare Krishna temple of Padova and Villa Vrindavana: serious allegations against Bhakta Claudio and responsibility of Matsyavatara Prabhu and Madhusevita Prabhu.

Child sexual violence

Namananda Das is the son of Namahatta Das, one of the greatest book distributors at the time of criminal William Ehrlichman, aka Bhagavan Das. About thirty years ago, little Namananda was sexually abused by Bhakta Claudio, his teacher at the then Hare Krishna temple in Padua. The head of the temple was notorious conman Orlando Cecchini alias Dayanidhi Vanacari. Whoever abuses the weak betrays every human and spiritual principle.

PADA: Dayanidhi wrote to tell me I am making serious offenses to BV Puri Maharaja, who was promoting Radhanath swami at his matha. I simply pointed out that we cannot glorify the second in command to Kirtanananda, and a person evidently involved in the departure of Sulochana and so many other deviations, as a spiritual authority. And that should not require my instruction, they should already know that. In fact, BV Puri and others should be lecturing to neophytes like me not to glorify these false GBC acharyas. I should not have to lecture them. But Dayanidhi appears to be still recognized in ISKCON, despite switching camps to BV Puri? 

Transfer

Following the abuse case, Namananda's family was forced to move to Villa Vrindavana, under the presiding of Claudio Rocchi, alias Krishna Caitanya das. Initially they lived in a motorhome, then they managed to buy a house in Villa Bonazza.

Adoption and hypocrisy of Matsyavatara

After the abuse and the death of his parents, Namananda was adopted by Marco Ferrini aka Matsyavatara Prabhu, ironically called “the humble one”. Today Namananda works as a psychologist in a drug addiction recovery community in Tuscany. Genuine compassion is measured by facts, not titles.

Exposure and insufficient consequences

Last year, Namananda found the courage to report Bhakta Claudio to Matsyavatara. Result? Just a ban from Italian Hare Krishna temples. A pitiful decision, which shows how blind those who should defend the weakest are to evil.

Omerty and collusion

Matsyavatara, already known for protecting paedophiles in the past and therefore accomplice, kept everything a secret, refusing to assist Namananda in reporting to the relevant authorities. He didn’t even report Bhagavan Das, masking the scams as “lawful activities”. Already as president of Villa Vrindavana temple, he had spent over 200 million pounds on Bhagavan’s villa marbles and bath, while telling devotees to sell books in the sun and rain. Her false devotion becomes instrument of suffering.

The tragic end of Namahatta

Namananda's father Namahatta Prabhu ended his life in disgrace towards the late 1990s. The wife had already left the body a few years ago. Despite being one of the biggest distributors of Srila Prabhupada books in the world, he spent his last days in a room in Villa Vrindavana, only to be thrown out without decency, terminally ill with AIDS, by the then President Samba Das, instrument of the GBC mobster Massimo Brioli, alias Madhusevita Prabhu. This is the face of falsehood and spiritual betrayal.

Last words loaded with truth

Namahatta's very last words were:

"Those who treated me like this will pay by turning on Matsyavatara and Madhusevita. The holders of the greatest prophet in the world are not capable of loving. Words that touch the heart, shedding light on the corruption of false teachers."

Book ban and spiritual discrimination

In recent years he was officially banned from receiving books, which were only given to him under the counter by a brother of his, because Matsyavatara and his followers did not accept his initiation by B.V. Puri Maharaj. 

PADA: But BV Puri endorsed GBC gurus like Radhanath, Gopal Krishna and others and was considered as a sort of advisor for some of the GBC gurus. The only reason he was later rejected was, he was "re-initiating" ISKCON's people and was then seen as a competitor. Then they turned on him. But he did say Srila Prabhupada had only appointed ritviks, so he was at least partially correct.

True devotion knows no prejudice, but they have stepped on it.

Dedication and method of Namahatta

Many remember Namahatta, also known as Maha-rathi, as a book dealer like no other. His 'dandavat' bows to other devotees were done with unique sincerity, dispelling any anartha.

Direct quotes on Sankirtan

"I do not understand those devotees who are jealous because I distribute so many books, I am not giving this mercy but it is Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu;

"You need to concentrate on the heart and the paramatma when distributing a book of transcendental literature. 

The living teachings condemn every spiritual manipulation.

Conclusion

The story of Namananda and Namahatta is the crude radiography of corruption, hypocrisy and evil in ISKCON Italy. People who are supposed to protect and love turn out to be accomplices of abuse and more abuse. Matsyavatara, Madhusevita Prabhu, Bhagavan Das and their accomplices not only do not know how to love - they destroy lives, cover violence and betray Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mercy. 

Those who have lied and betrayed must be called to their own responsibilities, without mercy, without compromise. Devotion without discernment, in the hands of those seeking power and profit, becomes a weapon of universal suffering.

A letter from a disciple of Lokanath Swami (2017)

To understand the situation related to Lokanath Swami case, a part of the personal correspondence between him and his disciple Abhay Charan das from New Zealand is published.

The author of the letter explains that he turned to the Guru due to growing doubts and lack of answers from senior Vaishnavis. He points out that he was not initially going to disclose this correspondence, but he is doing it now — to clarify the facts and counter attempts to silence or downplay the seriousness of what has happened.

Student's letter (June 6, 2017):

Abhay Charan das describes that after receiving the initiation in 1996, his faith has shaken for two reasons:

1. He came to know that in 1995 Lokanath Swami was removed from the GBC initiation but did not inform the disciples.

2. He later became aware of the case of sexual violence against a girl in which Swami confessed. Attempts to obtain a personal explanation were left unanswered.

He notes that, despite having doubts, he has always maintained respect for the Guru and followed his promises, but now openly expresses pain and frustration, hoping for a sincere response.

Lokanath Swami's answer (16 June 2017):

Swami confirmed that in 1995-1996, the GBC instructed him to keep the incident a secret, which he was "religiously performing". He called the incident "a minor incident thirty years ago" and expressed regret that the student found out about it later.

He also commented on Abhay Charan's refusal to publish the Vaishnava Puja offer, stating that he would not want the criticism to be made public.

Offering to Vyasa puja (Abhai Charan das, May 2017):

In his message, the disciple wished that his Guru should always remain an example of a pure, humble and responsible leader who represents Srila Prabhupada and our parampara with dignity.

The comments:

“My frustration is not in Lokanatha Swami as a man, but in the GBC reaction at the time, who protected the violator and left the victim without support. After years of waiting, I left him as a Diksha Guru - one of the hardest decision of my spiritual life. Nevertheless, I wish him spiritual well."

Purujit's BLISS Society update 10 10 25



Yeah there is something very off about this guy. 


Who is Purujit Dasa and his BLISS, and why it is important to talk about it. 

(ENGLISH TRANSLATION BELOW)

Purujit Dasa is the founder of the London-based BLISS movement (Bhaktivedanta Lives in Sound Society), which is advertised as being faithful to the original teachings of Srila Prabhupada. Started in 2008 by Kapindra Swami Maharaj, and yet known for arrogance, authoritarianism and self-proclamation of a sort of Guru status.

BLISS presents itself as a project of “restoration of purity”, but it’s just a facade patina to deceive naive and curious devotees.

Behind this mask, hides an abyss of hypocrisy, falsehood and morally unacceptable behaviours.

Main controversies:

Sacrileague modification of sacred texts:

Purujit has published a “rigged” and "re-edited" and illegitimate version of the Bhagavad-gītā, replacing the 1972 edition that Srila Prabhupada himself approved and authorized. His arguments are ridiculously similar to that of Jayadvaita Swami, another notorious manipulator of lyrics. Purujit, without any official mandate, has self-elevated himself to “editor” and “keeper” of purity, severely offending the intelligence and faith of Hare Krishna. 

His texts, devoid of copyright and legitimacy, destroys the coherence and sanctity of the original teachings, causing irreparable damage.

Fraudulent exploitation.

He collected donations from people believing it was an authorized project, deliberately misleading devotees who then openly denounced this spiritual scam.

Pornography: an indelible and disgusting stain.

Former members of his centre in Spain testified that they caught him several times watching explicit pornographic material, behaving like a predator disguised as a sannyasi. In the face of accusations, Purujit didn't have the courage to face the truth: he fled to Canada, leaving his followers in chaos and despair. His collaborator Makhancora even justified this obscene behaviour, stating cynically that he will continue to follow him “even if Purujit contradicts Prabhupada”. This is the indelible mark of a cult of deceivers without conscience.

Tyrannical authoritarianism.

Purujit demands blind obedience, imposes his authority in a dictatorial manner, intimidating, bullying and shoving away anyone who dares to ask him legitimate questions or disagree.

Project BLISS complete failure

The group in Spain is frankly implicated. Devotees from Mexico, Canada and Europe have abandoned this scam, many isolating as former members. Even the Spain “Tattoo guy” who hosted him quietly disassociated, visibly embarrassed, after being his main attack dog for a long time. He finally realized he was defending a fraud.

Fake saffron garments, no humility, just deception.

Purujit wears sannyasi’s saffron dress, but it’s just a mask to hide his shameful actions: pornography, textual revisionism, self-proclamations by guru. It’s a grotesque and offensive caricature of everything sacred in Vaisnavism.

Dangerous ties

BLISS has repeatedly been associated with HKC Jaipur, known for indirectly supporting criminals, spreading Hitler-glorifying content and not protecting vulnerable children and devotees.

PADA: Yeah, the HKC Jaipur folks told me that our saving children from being beaten and raped means PADA "has no credibility." Everyone else is saying WTF is wrong with these odious clowns, we should allow children to be abused to save the GBC's guru program? No wonder the HKC Jaipur / Mathura Pati are promoting Radhanath's cheer leaders, the same party who killed Sulochana; and Bhavananda's writer Hari Sauri. These folks are CREDIBLE -- where?

Then the HKC joined with Narayan Visvakarma to declare the pedo molesting cult is "the Golden Body of ISKCON." In other words, they started to promote Radhanath's cheer leaders and Bhavananda's writer because they are still defending the molester "Golden Body" of the messiah's project. Then Mathura Pati is hanging out with Purujit, after working with a serial woman abuser like NNV, who was beating women and forcing them to have sex (aka rape). 

These people should not considered to be advanced, or as the authorities in a religious society. But yeah, Purujit is a book changer and none of the sincere readers of PADA agree he is authorized to re-edit the books. 

He trains his people to call me "an old fart" -- but even the karmis don't talk to me that rude way because they do not behave like animals. Purujit is in short, self promoting himself, which would be good -- if he was authorized, but he is not. As for the porno complaint, that means he should not dress in orange, just be honest. There is just a lot of misdirection and cheating going on with this guy, and that means he should not be seen as bona fide.

But I knew something was wrong when he came all the way to Berkeley and he kept putting off meeting me, and then he left. He avoided meeting me -- for a reason.   

Conclusion without appeal:

Purujit Dasa and his followers embody, according to Srīla Prabhupada, a total, dangerous and useless deviation. Labeling the Bhagavad-gītā As It Is 1972 as “useless” or “Māyāvāda-tinged" is a sacrilege that puts oneself above the master. Srila Prabhupāda clearly warned: Whoever contradicts the Guru is a demon, whoever distorts his words is a traitor to spiritual service.

Krishna has already pronounced His irrevocable judgment: a trail of failure, betrayal, division, and total absence of divine blessing. As PADA emphasizes, Purujit represents the umpteenth manifestation of “Deadly Acharya Disease”, the deadly disease of self-proclamation that corrupts and destroys true spiritual guidance.

A true teacher is recognized by transparency, integrity, coherence and humility, not by boastful proclamations, manipulated videos or empty saffron poses.
It is urgent and necessary to defend the authentic mission of Srila Prabhupada. With love, but with the firm determination of those who know the truth.
