Sarvabhouma das / Kratu / Mukunda UK / Bailing Out / Bhakti Ratnakara 06 07 26

Evidently Krishna was engaged in cross dressing hundreds of trillions of years before it recently became the fashion here in San Francisco. It is odd that some of the things we find deviated or offensive in the material world have an original -- non contaminated -- spiritual origin. 

The material world is the upside down reflection, that means the higher things there are the lower / lowest rung here. Krishna's cross dressing there is a means of making jokes and entertaining enjoyment pastimes with His devotees, to enthuse them and make them more attracted to Krishna. This is the non-contaminated version of these activities. 

Krishna wanted to meet Lalitā-sakhī, one of Rādhā’s closest companions. Vrindavan was crowded with gopīs, making it impossible for Him to reach her unnoticed. A clever gopī devised a plan: She dressed Krishna in a saree, adorned Him with bangles, placed a veil over His head, and transformed Him into a beautiful maiden.

In this disguise, Krishna blended perfectly among the gopīs and was escorted into the inner chambers where Lalitā and the sakhīs were waiting. Once inside, Krishna revealed Himself, and the sakhīs burst into laughter, teasing Him for looking exactly like one of them. These pastimes deepen Krishna and His devotee's loving bond, and highlight the playful intimacy of Krishna's leelas with His associates in Vrindavan. And these joking and playful pastimes make the devotees and Krishna constantly very jovial and happy.

PADA: Sarvabhouma Das: Yes! We could get along, except the GBC told me to get out of ISKCON for the rest of my life in 1979 when I challenged sex and drugs messiah Jayatirtha. And when I said the children are being mistreated, they said go ahead and sue us in court. 

So I had to help sue them for $3M in 1986 and later for $400M after 1999 -- for the child problem. But when Jayapataka saw me in LA, after his telling me "take us to court," he was yelling and shouting at me and sending his goons to chase me around Watseka. 

So he was angry, I followed his orders to take him to court. Then he declared ISKCON bankrupted, to avoid paying the victims. So they wanted all this, and the result is, the movement has turned into a ghost town. They are not even trying to get along with us, they wanted a battle, just like the Kauravas, and they got one. 

The good news is I am helping a new child mistreatment case in Delhi right now, I am strictly following their orders to take them to court, because we cannot allow children to become victims. How can we cooperate with these folks? 

Yep, no one should harm a Vaishnava.

Very sinful! 

The offenders CERTAINLY go to hell.

Which is why! We ban, beat, molest, sue and kill them.

Unless they help us promote our pedophile acharyas,

the Lord's Vaishnavas will be punished, if not killed.

Any questions?

Yeah, how well is going for you in hell right now?

You became what you predicted you would become. 

Someone said, he took karma from ignorant people and

he will have to pay for that offense.

Wow, Kratu says we should not give trouble to Vaishnavas or we go to Hades, after his people had me chased with baseball bats and they exterminated my associate Sulochana. And I would have been exterminated and sent to the morgue myself without help from the FEDS. These people are not even trying to cooperate with us. Of course we should all chant, that is good, but keep the FEDS on speed dial. ys pd

MUKUNDA UK (Mark Whitely) IS ALL OVER THE MAP

Yep prabhu, saw that already. The problem is that Mukunda UK makes videos glorifying Radhanath's biggest defenders like Bhakta das. And then he makes another video glorifying a person who says Radhanath is doing great preaching -- like Naranarayan Visvakarma -- who visited Chowpatty saying it is a wonderful "Prabhupada centered" (i.e. Sulochana killing) preaching program run by Radhanath. And "Radhanath is doing a great job." Getting rid of us?  

And Mukunda's people cite homosexual pedophile Bhavananda's writer Hari Sauri as their authority. OK PADA does not promote defenders and writers for homosexual pedophile guru projects, not to be done full stop. 

Mukunda UK is with both camps and that is what is confusing people. We have to take one side or the other, we cannot be with Sulochana -- and with the people taking out Sulochan at the same time. We also cannot be for Krishna and Sisupala at the same time, one of them is right and one is not. 

He has never decided to take one side or the other, so he promotes both the GBC program's friends and defenders -- and the ritviks. That is called hypocrisy. And then the HKC Jaipur folks made Mukunda their hero, because he promotes Sulochana's killer's program, pedophile guru program's writers, also as a side bonus -- also promoting Hitler -- which every devotee community on earth has wrote condemnation complaints about -- to PADA. Hitler is about as popular as dog manure and they just do not get it.

OK nobody likes Hitler -- except these guys. But yeah there are a lot of devotees out there who are with the GBC, with us, with Narayan Maharaja, with Hitler, with Babajis, and who knows what else, and that is why there are so many schisms. And that is why it is said, a person who is friends with all camps is the friend of no camp.

KRATU DEFENDER BAILS OUT OF DISCUSSION

​@Abhi29885 Yep Abhi, Kratu was a GBC guru because he thanked Kirtanananda for accepting him as his disciple. And then the GBC made him a co-guru in that guru parampara. Actually speaking, worshiping a predator of minors is factually forbidden in ALL shastra, even mleccha shastra.

Kratu dasa:

Dear Kirtanananda: Please be merciful unto me, I am so fallen; yet you have accepted me as your disciple. Thank you very much. It is only by your mercy I am a devotee. Your servants, Kratu das and Amrita Keli Devi dasi.

And Kratu said the only reason he is a devotee is because of Kirtanananda and so on. So that is the difference between the ritviks and the GBC gurus. The GBC guru folks are thankful for having been initiated by an oral s*x in the motorhome predator of minors as their guru, whereas the ritviks only accept the pure devotee Srila Prabhupada as their acharya.

Did I forget to mention, when we sued the GBC for $400,000,000, Kratu's New Vrndavana was listed as one of the worst cases of mass child mistreatment by the courts? Sorry, we cannot accept that any of this represents any part of Krishna and His guru succession.

So yeah, we should all be gurus, and that would make us all shiksha gurus, and we should glorify the proper parampara and reject the false one. Did I forget to mention, New Vrndavana sent out armed "enforcers" to take me and Sulochana out of our bodies, and place us in the morgue? And then Kratu says anyone who harms a Vaishnava goes straight to Patala, and that means he is talking about his own program. ys pd

PADA NOTE: Abhi bailed out after this and all his comments disappeared.

HINDU-BINDU

Right, almost all the Western devotees were exiled out of ISKCON. And the "India bodied" people were welcomed in. And these India body people are gradually taking legal control of ISKCON properties because they are designated as the temple legal managerial board members. For example, one Western GBC here is the sole Westerner among a board of 7 Hindu managers. The 7 Hindu managers have the controlling votes, and they have already voted against the sole Western guy many times. So the GBC wanted to weed out the Westerners and their gurukula children, and make a Hindu social club, and that is called bodily based preaching. 

Did I forget to mention a lot of the Hindu congregation people eat meat and worship Ramakrishna and etc.? The Hindus here do not know the prayers and the Sunday feast kirtan is lucky to have one or two Western old timers, who do not always show up, with some Hindus mumbling along. 

The idea of purging out the Westerners started early on, I got the boot in 1979. At the last New Orleans Sadhu Sanga Fest, BB Govinda even said -- this is mostly Hindus -- which he said from the stage. So this is called bodily based preaching and it was never the plan of Srila Prabhupada, but this has been a conscious, planned and orchestrated effort to drive us out, and bring them in. ys pd

Excerpts from Bhakti Ratnākara ‒ The Ocean Of Devotion by Śrī Narahari Cakravartī

PĀVANA SAROVARA

Śrīla Rāghava Paṇḍita describes a pastime of Sanātana Gosvāmī by this celebrated lake near Nandagrāma.

vṛndāvana hoite āsi' ei nirjana vane; premete vihvala sadā kṛṣṇa ārādhane
saṅgopane rahe bhakṣaṇera ceṣṭā nāi; keho nā jānaye — ke āchaye ei ṭhāi

“Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī came from Vṛndāvana to this lonely forest and constantly worshiped Kṛṣṇa here in ecstatic love. He stayed here without even endeavoring to collect any food. No one knew that he was there.” (1301–1302)

kṛṣṇa gopa-bālakera chale dugdha loiyā dāḍāilā gosvāmī sammukhe harṣa hoiyā
go-rakṣaka veśa māṭhe uṣṇīṣa śobhāya dugdha-bhāṇḍa hāte dhari' gosvāmīre koy
āchaho nirjane tomā keho nāhi jāne; dekhilām tomāre āsiyā go-cāraṇe
ei dugdha pān koro āmāra kothāy; loiyā yāibo bhāṇḍa rākhilo ethāy

“Kṛṣṇa then came to him dressed as a cowherd boy, blissfully standing before him with some milk. He had a beautiful turban on His head and a milk pot in His hand as He told Sanātana Gosvāmī: ‘Nobody knows that you're here all alone! I saw you here when I came here to herd My cows. Please drink this milk! I will pick up the pot later; just keep it here!’” (1303–1306)

kuṭīre rohile mo sabhāra sukha hobe; aiche raho ithe vrajavāsī duḥkha pābe
eto kohi' gopālera hoilo gamana; mugdha hoiyā pān koilo sanātana
dugdha pān mātre preme adhairya hoila; netrajale sikta hoiyā bahu kheda koilā
alakṣite prabhu sanātana prabodhilā; vrajavāsī dvāre eka kuṭīre korāilā
aiche sanātanera hoilo vāsāloy; madhye madhye ethā śrī rūpera sthiti hoy

“‘We will all be happy if you would stay in a hut (instead of outside)! If you stay here like this, the people of Vraja will be very sad!’ Saying this, Gopāla went away and Sanātana drank the milk in an enchanted state. After he drank, he became overwhelmed with ecstatic love and sprinkled himself with tears. The Lord secretly addressed Sanātana Gosvāmī and had the people of Vraja make a hut for him. In this way Sanātana Gosvāmī got his own dwelling place there. Sometimes Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī also stayed there.” (1307–1311)

eka dina śrī rūpa gosvāmī sanātane; bhuñjāite dugdhānnādi korilen mane
aiche mane kori punaḥ saṅkocita hoilā; śrī rūpera manovṛtti rādhikā jānilā
ghṛta dugdha taṇḍula śarkarādi loiyā; gopa-bālikāra chale āilā harṣa hoiyā

“One day Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī thought of feeding Sanātana Gosvāmī (his guru) some kṣīra (sweet rice). He became hesitant, but Śrī Rādhikā had seen what was on his mind, so She blissfully came before him as a cowherd girl, bringing ghṛta (clarified butter), milk, rice, and sugar with Her.” (1312–1314)

rūpa prati kohe svāmī ei saba leha; śīghra pāk kori kṛṣṇe samarpi bhuñjāho
mātā mora ei kothā kohila kohite; kono-i saṅkoca yeno nāhi kabhu cite
eto kohi śrī rādhikā kautuke colilā; śrī rūpa gosvāmī sukhe śīghra pāk koilā

“She told Śrī Rūpa: ‘O Svāmījī! Take all these ingredients, quickly cook for Kṛṣṇa and offer it to Him! My mother told Me to do this, so don't feel shy at all!’ After saying this, Śrī Rādhikā joyfully left and Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī blissfully began to cook.” (1315–1317)

kṛṣṇe samarpiyā gosvāmī sanātana; kori pariveśana paramānanda mane
sanātana gosvāmī sāmagrī sugandhite; nā jāne kautuka sukha upajāya cite
dui eka grāsa mukhe diyā sanātana; hoilā adhairya — aśru nahe nivāraṇa
sanātana sāmagrī vṛttānta jijñāsilo; śrī rūpa kramete saba vṛttānta kohila

“After offering the food to Kṛṣṇa, Rūpa Gosvāmī served it to Sanātana Gosvāmī. I cannot describe Sanātana Gosvāmī's ecstasy when he smelled the nice fragrance of these dishes! After he had eaten one or two mouthfuls, Sanātana became agitated with ecstasy and could not withhold his tears of love. When Sanātana Gosvāmī inquired about the origin of the ingredients, Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī gradually told him everything.” (1318–1321)

śuniyā gosvāmī niṣedhaye bāra bār; aiche bhakṣya-dravya ceṣṭā nā koriho ār
eto kohi' mahā-prasāda sevā koilā; śrī rūpa gosvāmī ati kheda yukta hoilā
svapna cchale śrī rādhikā diyā darśane; prabodhilā śrī rūpe jānila sanātane

“Hearing the story, Sanātana Gosvāmī repeatedly forbade Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī to prepare food for which Śrī Rādhikā personally had to come to provide the ingredients. After that he honored the mahā-prasāda, leaving Śrī Rūpa repenting his act. Śrī Rādhikā then appeared to Śrī Rūpa in a dream and consoled him. Sanātana Gosvāmī was aware of that (so he did not blame Rūpa Gosvāmī anymore).” (1322–1324)

ahe śrīnivāsa yaiche rūpera dhairyat; vaiṣṇava samāje vyakta hoilo āścarya
eka dina rādhā-kṛṣṇa viccheda kathāte; kāṅdaye vaiṣṇava mūrcchāgata pṛthivīte
agni-śikhā-prāya jvale rūpera hṛdoy; tathāpi bāhire kichu prakāśa nā hoy
kāru dehe śrī rūpera niśvāsa sparśilo; agni-dagdha-prāy tāra dehe braṇa hoilo

“Ahe Śrīnivāsa! The Vaiṣṇava world was astonished at the gravity of Rūpa Gosvāmī! One day he felt so much separation from Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa that he cried and fainted, falling on the ground before the Vaiṣṇavas. His heart was as if burning in the high flames of a fire, but still none of this was externally visible. Yet if Śrī Rūpa’s outgoing breath touched anyone's body, that body was burned and developed a blister!” (1325–1328)

PADA editor and the bird. 

There was a little bird here who was just sitting for hours and not flying. I could walk right up and it would just sit there. So I got worried and called animal control. They said it is a baby and it does not know how to fly, just leave it. 

So we did, but I was still worried it would get eaten by the neighbor's cats. Anyway, they were right, after the whole day went by -- it started to fly a little here and there, and then eventually it flew off and was gone. 

So that is what happens in the material world. We feel bad for animals -- a deer, a dog, a cat, a bird, and we get all emotionally involved. I can see how that happens -- even to great devotees, never mind it just happened to me. ys pd

Locan Ananda Dasa

My Viewpoint on Initiations in ISKCON

My dear Godbrother, Gaura Prabhu, has presented on his Facebook page a truly balanced approach to the roles of siksa guru and diksa guru based on sastra. My approach includes an additional managerial angle of vision which takes into account Srila Prabhupada's ISKCON-specific instructions on how to manage future initiations, particularly at that time when he would no longer be physically present, which was stated in a conversation he had with GBC leaders.

The conversation took place on May 28, 1977 in Srila Prabhupada's quarters in Vrndavana. The entire GBC body had been summoned when the spiritual head of the Hare Krishna movement, Srila Prabhupada, was considering how to instruct his disciples about governing the society after he had left this world. 

There were six men remaining from the original GBC who had been called to Los Angeles in 1970 when Srila Prabhupada first formed the Governing Body Commission . Those six men went to Srila Prabhupada's room to ask about their specific managerial concerns.

The question was asked about how initiations would be conducted when Srila Prabhupada would no longer be with us. His immediate answer was that he would recommend some of them to act as "officiating acharyas." This was the term he had decided would be their designation, not to be confused with his designation as "founder acharya."

I found it very interesting that throughout the conversation, there was no mention of "siksa guru" or "diksa guru." One point I would mention is that these two terms are not titles. They are not managerial designations. They are scriptural references to different aspects of empowerment by Krishna through which disciples are to be guided and elevated to the platform of pure devotional service.
It is the prerogative of the empowered acharya to make adjustments according to time, place, circumstance, audience and culture to better spread Krishna consciousness throughout the world.

Naming his leading disciples who would serve as officiating acharyas in his absence was one such adjustment. One may conclude that these two aspects of siksa and diksa guru are accounted for in the arrangement announced by His Divine Grace on May 28, 1977. 

The gist of the conversation that followed mainly concerned the formalities of initiation. Srila Prabhupada stated that the officiating acharyas would be giving diksa, and those receiving diksa from them would be considered Srila Prabhupada's grand disciples. 

What was never stated was that the officiating acharyas would be worshipped "as good as God" by those who received diksa from them. As Srila Prabhupada said about initiation, "My touch is a formality."

So, the role of the officiating acharya was to conduct the formalities, or sacraments, of initiation. Had the GBC followed Srila Prabhupada's guidelines enunciated on that occasion, we would not have seen the exodus of thousands of devotees who considered the worship of non- liberated souls in all of our ISKCON temples, as if they were on the maha-bhagavata platform, to be a major deviation and affront to the founder acharya.

There is still time to institute what Srila Prabhupada had in mind. The GBC could convene and declare that henceforward those giving diksa would by referred to as officiating acharyas in accordance with the transcendental nomenclature suggested by Srila Prabhupada himself on May 28, 1977

in Vrndavana, that holy place. I hope the readers of this comment will pass this along to those devotees who occupy important positions in our society. The key is to follow in the footprints of the great acharya and to humbly serve as his representative. Chant Hare Krishna and pray to be engaged in the eternal service of the Personality of Godhead.

Your servant,
Locanananda dasa

RADHA KUND UPDATE

RADHA KUND IS GETTING WORSE

Grace and Gratitude

mahanidhi madan gopal das

The diksha guru is like a father, and you can never reject a father even if he commits some transgression. One's being a father is not dependent on his making or not making transgressions but on a simple biological act. Similarly, the Guru is guru, not because of any material deeds good or bad, but because he has established for the disciple a real connection to a particular spiritual ideal and practice. 

PADA: OK this Mahanidhi guy is associated with the Radha Kund babajis and their idea is that when the guru deviates and creates transgressions, we should simply allow, tolerate and not be too bothered. Except, a guru is supposed to be attached to Krishna to the point he is no longer entangled in mundane attachments and transgressions. This is simply the excuse the conditioned soul guru programs use to allow deviations in false acharyas. 

In other words, the guru literally gives life to the disciple. So to reject the guru means to reject the life that he has given. And many people do so rather hastily which results in their own spiritual detriment.

PADA: If a guru is falling down into transgressions, he is disturbing the sincere devotees. Rupa Goswami says false gurus, saints and sadhus are "utpat" -- simply a disturbance for the sincere. A false guru should be rejected, that is the order of the shastra. 

There is no way to find the guru inside our heart without first recognizing and appreciating the grace of the Guru standing in front of us. As a disciple, I expect the guru to be perfect because I have a psychological need for such perfection. And if the guru disappoints me, I become angry as described in the Bhagavad gita (2.62-63). Then I forget whatever grace he did gave me (smṛti-bhraṁśa) and I lose my intelligence (buddhi-nāśa).

PADA: No, when we reject a false guru that is the proper use of intelligence. Krishna does not want us to worship false gurus. We have NOT lost our intelligence, we are using proper intelligence -- reject false gurus. Mahanidhis himself had a servant who discovered he was having an affair with a married lady, who already had children. That servant then rejected Mahanidhi as a guru, and this was rightly done. 

And it looks like various rogues and rascals are running around Vrndavan and Mahanidhi is not helping contain them. I know of stories of some other rascals over there and no one ever does anything. Thankfully the police took action on this Adhikarta guy, but that is a drop in the bucket IMHO.

EATING FOOD OFFERED TO -- MYSELF?

 

Dhirasanta Dasa Goswami RU

Dear well-wishers, disciples and followers of His Holiness Dhirashanta dasa Goswami,

Please accept our humble bow. Hail to Srila Prabhupada.

Some of you are aware that in December last year maharaj had hip replacement surgery. The surgery went well and the process of rehabilitation and recovery began shortly after.

Unfortunately, during subsequent examinations, the Maharaj discovered a brain tumor, which was already self-identified and urgent intervention was required. By the grace of Krishna, we were able to find a qualified neurosurgeon quickly and the tumor was removed on 1st April.

The surgery went without complications, but the recovery process is much more difficult and Maharaj requires constant assistance. This process is also complicated by occasional infections. At the moment, he is constantly with students who care for him, as well as doctors assist at home.

Despite his vigorous spirit and clear conscience, his physical condition is rather critical and the doctors' prognosis is not very optimistic. Hence, we humbly request all the devotees to pray for EU Dhirashantu dasa Goswami so that he can continue his service to Srila Prabhupada and Lord Chaitanya mission, if it is Krishna's will.

All those who wish can transfer their best donation to Kaunas temple account with note "For treatment of Dhirashanta dasa Goswami".

Kauno m. Krishna consciousness religious community

LT 667300010002247619

Thank you for your support!

Your servants,

students and followers of Dhirashanta dasa Goswami EU.

PADA: Did I forget to mention -- another cancer case? One lady here was diagnosed and they gave her three months. I was thinking that is too long since she will suffer. And she only lasted two days after that. But yeah, no one knew -- until it was too late. She had suffered terrible problems with ISKCON already, so I did not want her to suffer from illness, and frankly I was kinda glad she did not suffer for long.

Anyway! Dhirasanta helps the GBC establish their pedophile messiah's club, which burns out the West. Then he goes to hide out in Lithuania, where no one knows the scandals. That is what a lot of them are doing. 

I wish him well and hope he does better, but dude, you should not be taking karma or advising other fools to also take karma. None of you are qualified for that post. When your disciples offer food to you, and you eat it, you are eating food offered to -- yourself. No surprised you guys are getting cancer. ys pd

PADA: OK wait a minute. Kratu das was ACTUALLY second initiated by Kirtanananda swami, a known homosexual pedophile. But he is advertised all over ISKCON as a direct disciple of Srila Prabhupada, without mentioning he took second from a deviant. In the note below we find he is thanking Kirtanananda for accepting him as Kirtanananda's disciple. He clearly switched camps! 

So that means, if he is a disciple of Srila Prabhupada, he got a ritvik second initiation from Kirtanananda. So the GBC guys can give second ritvik initiations and make Prabhupada's second disciples, and the disciples can advertise they are Srila Prabhupada disciples. That is ritvik de facto. He says he is thankful to be KIRTANANANDA's DISCIPLE, and he is de facto. 

How does this make any sense? OK it makes a lot of sense, they are too ashamed to admit he is second initiated by a known homosexual pedophile, and he was glorifying Kirtanananda as a guru, so they mislead the public that he is direct initiated by Srila Prabhupada, when they all know he was not fully, he was also with the homosexual and pedophile guru group. Unfortunately, a lot of people have to do research whenever the GBC says something, to double check if it is factual. Often, it isn't. 

ys pd angel108b@yahoo.com  

PADA: Sorry prabhu! Kratu is your friend, but he obviously lied about his history to you. He himself writes that he is second initiated by Kirtanananda. He says he is thankful to be Kirtanananda's disciple. That means Kirtanananda was a ritvik who initiated him as Srila Prabhupada disciple? Why are some ritvik initiations allowed and not others? 

Either that, or the GBC cannot admit that Kirtanananda was engaged in oral s*x with minors, and so they are trying to change history and re-write what really happened, and erase Kirtanananda from Kratu's history. 

In the Kirtanananda Vyasa Puja book of 1987, Kratu and his wife wrote the following offering to Kirtanananda Swami, stating they were his disciples: “Dear Srila Bhaktipada, […] Please be merciful unto me, I am so fallen; yet you have accepted me as your disciple. Thank you very much. It is only by your mercy, that I am a devotee. […] Your servants, Kratu Das, Amrita Keli Devi Dasi" 

So that probably explains why Kratu was working with Gopal Krishna, one of the organizers of the Kirtanananda samadhi. They were all in the same boat together. I am sorry to have to report this, but oral s*x with minors people should be arrested and not placed in samadhis. But the GBC did not have him arrested and they helped him escape to India. ys pd

In the Kirtanananda Vyasa Puja book of 1987, Kratu and his wife wrote the following offering to Kirtanananda Swami, stating they were his disciples:
“Dear Srila Bhaktipada, […] Please be merciful unto me, I am so fallen; yet you have accepted me as your disciple. Thank you very much. It is only by your mercy, that I am a devotee. […]

Your servants,
Kratu Das, Amrita Keli Devi Dasi"

So how did a second initiate disciple of Kirtanananda Swami magically get promotted to being a disciple of Srila Prabhupada only, and then made a guru in ISKCON? In 2002 Vipramukhya Swami, who was the regional guru in Vancouver, fell down and resigned as a guru in ISKCON. Coincidentally the same year, the GBC promoted Kratu Das, a long time resident and leader of Vancouver, to be the new guru for Vancouver. 

He was made a guru to fill the vacuum created when Vipramukhya Swami fell down. To make his appointment seem authentic they could not say he was a disciple of Kirtanananda Swami, and instead claimed he was also a disciple of Srila Prabhupada.

If common devotees are allowed to likewise receive initiation from Srila Prabhupada they would lose direct access to control of vast amounts of money and manpower in the form of disciples who would "opt out" of their system.

PADA: Well yeah Abhi prabhu, but he also said in the Gaudiya Matha no one is qualified to be acharya. This is not something cheap that a person jumps into without being empowered by Krishna.

I am not empowered by Krishna, ok fine, and that is my fault, ok fine. But Srila Prabhupada said even the greatly advanced Gaudiya Math scholars were not qualified either. And you think that because I am born as a hamburger society, I should be more advanced than the entire Gaudiya Math? That makes no sense. None of this means I can "jump up like monkeys" and force Krishna to empower me, when He does not empower much more advanced people than me in the Gaudiya Math. If I am not a pure person, that is my fault, does not mean I can rubber stamp myself as one artificially, as they did in the Gaudiya Math. Krishna empowers the acharya, we do not empower ourself as acharya.

He also said that when we are not liberated, we promote the liberated. That means what I am doing is authorized.

Meanwhile Kratu das, who thanked Kirtanananda for initiating him, has all sorts of sentimental people crying for him in India, where they think he is a guru. A person who is initiated by an oral s*x debauchee acharya is not an acharya himself, but the people there have no idea what is what. Are you telling me that their oral s*x acharya's program is authorized?

NOTE: You still have not named anyone who is authorized. And if you cannot name anyone, there is no one. And that means you are promoting the worship of nothingness, which is mayavada. But no, I am not going to help the GBC promote their worship of oral s*x acharyas, and there is no "order" for me to do so. It is my fault not to be pure, but there is no fault for me to promote the pure, that is 100% authorized. ys pd

HENRY DOKTORSKY III


Regarding the alleged controversy recently-deceased Kratu dasa, I wish to clarify:
Kratu is a direct disciple of Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. According to the "Srila Bhaktipada Disciples Book," Kratu dasa (Manihar Patel) received 2nd initiation from Kirtanananda Swami at a fire sacrifice in Toronto Ontario on August 11, 1978.
After Prabhupada's passing, many, many Prabhupada disciples took second initiation from one of the zonal acharyas. This was quite common. Ritvik has nothing to do with it.
Sincerely,
Henry Doktorski
Former disciple of Kirtanananda Swami

JND: This is conclusive proof for me. The fact it only records second initiation implies first was given by Srila Prabhupada (reportedly in September of 1977). Thank you for clarifying this controversy.

PADA: 

Thanks for the info, I will update it.

If he took second from Kirtanananda, that is a ritvik type process, because he still accepted that Srila Prabhupada as his actual guru and Kirtanananda as an agent -- most likely. The problem is -- he then went on to glorify Kirtanananda in his letters and Vyasa pujas etc. and so it looks like he was trying to eat his cake and have it too, and be loyal with both gurus.

Overall he went with the GBC process after 1978, including taking second initiation from Kirtanananda, so he is mainly in their camp. He also supported Gopal Krishna, who helped make the samadhi for Kirtanananda. The samadi was made after it was widely known Kirtanananda was deviating.

His guru may have been officially / originally Srila Prabhupada, but he went over to their camp very clearly, which means, he is a disciple of them mainly, if not wholesale, in factual reality. To say he is a disciple of Srila Prabhupada, when he is working with these false successors, means for me, he is a disciple of them. How can he be a disciple of Srila Prabhupada and support their illicit sex with men, women and children as God's successors process, when this was never preached by Srila Prabhupada. And was condemned by him thousands of times.

An actual sincere Srila Prabhupada disciple would never endorse these false people posing as Krishna's successors, because we all knew all along these GBC guys are falling off the wagon left, right and center full time, all the time. And thus they are not qualified to be Krishna's successors, because that would mean Krishna is falling off the wagon left and right.

But thanks for the update, so he has an official first initiation from Srila Prahbupada, but then he took their initiation process lock, stock and barrel afterwards and he rejected making Srila Prabhupada the guru, he went along with Kirtanananda being the guru and not Srila Prabhupada (our idea). And he himself became one of their gurus along with the other deviants. So he was officially a Prabhupada devotee, but in real life, a devotee of them. 

But yeah, if they were giving second that means it is a ritvik type idea, because they are technically still Prabhupada disciples. That was one of the arguments for ritvik right out of the gate, they are initiating people as Srila Prabhupada disciples. Anyway, he was a big supporter of these guys, and not Srila Prabhupada, he supported suing our guys etc., that is very clear. ys pd

RAKSANA DASA HEALTH CRISIS

GANDHARI DASI

Hare Krsna. Please say a prayer for my stepfather RAKSANA DASA (Roger Barbour). He is at the end of his life in a rehab facility in Danbury, NC. The devotees in Sandy Ridge are visiting him and assisting with his end of life preparations. Rakshana was Srila Prabhupada's bodyguard and was married to my mom Caitanya Dasi.

AI FARMS ARE A HAZARD 

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 You can’t see it. You can’t hear it. But your body feels it — and it’s making people across America seriously ill.

This story broke just days ago and it is spreading fast. Because it affects anyone who lives within miles of one of these facilities — and there are now thousands of them being built all over the country.

The AI data center boom has a dirty secret. And it’s making your neighbors sick right now.

THE INVISIBLE THREAT YOU’VE NEVER HEARD OF

AI data centers emit noise up to 96 decibels — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sound exceeding 85 decibels is already considered dangerous to human hearing. But the more terrifying threat is what residents cannot hear at all: infrasound — low-frequency sound below 20 Hertz that bypasses the ear entirely and is felt by the body as pressure or vibration.

You literally cannot hear it coming. You just start feeling sick. And you don’t know why. Residents living near AI data centers are reporting a terrifying list of symptoms they believe are directly caused by this invisible noise pollution: dizziness, nausea, vertigo, insomnia, headaches, and anxiety — occurring constantly, with no relief, because the machines never stop running.

These are not hypochondriacs. These are normal Americans who were perfectly healthy — until a data center moved in next door.

WHAT SCIENTISTS SAY IS HAPPENING TO YOUR BODY

Paul Héroux, associate professor of medicine at McGill University, confirmed that infrasound at high volumes can directly affect the central nervous system and heart function. “Sound, electric and magnetic fields of the same frequency have some overlap in their biological effects because they are similarly disruptive energy injections,” he warned.

Your heart. Your nervous system. Being disrupted every single minute of every single day by a building you never agreed to have built next door.

Research published just weeks ago found that children living near data centers face particularly devastating consequences: poor cognition, lower reading comprehension, concentration deficits, increased stress, and behavioral issues — all linked to the constant 24/7 noise exposure that their developing brains cannot handle.

It’s not just making adults sick. It is hurting children’s ability to learn and develop. Permanently.

ELON MUSK’S AI SUPERCOMPUTER IS AS LOUD AS AN AIRPORT

Elon Musk’s “Colossus” AI supercomputer — one of the most powerful AI machines ever built — used over 30 mobile gas turbines for power. These turbines are essentially jet engines bolted to the floor. Residents living nearby described the facility as being as loud as an active airport — running nonstop, day and night, with zero breaks.

Imagine living next to an airport that never closes. That is now someone’s backyard reality.

REAL FAMILIES. REAL SUFFERING.

Residents of Brittany Heights in Chandler, Arizona have been fighting for months to block out the constant hum of a data center built right next to their neighborhood. Their complaints to local officials have been largely ignored. The noise pollution issue became so severe it ultimately led to a proposed new data center in their area being blocked — but the existing one keeps running.

In North Carolina, community health advocates are raising urgent alarms. “When we visited a data center in Georgia, people living around it talked about the constant droning noise and light disrupting their sleep and impacting their mental health,” one researcher reported. “These concerns are not fringe. They are supported by hard health research.”

AND THEY’RE HIDING IT ON PURPOSE

Developers have been caught using non-disclosure agreements to hide the environmental and health impacts of data centers from the public — specifically to get approval before anyone can object. Issues deliberately hidden from communities have included competing with households for scarce groundwater, being sited in low-income or high-pollution areas, and causing nearby residents to suffer from reduced cognitive performance and sleep disruption.

They know. They hide it. They build anyway.

70% OF AMERICANS WANT THIS STOPPED

A March 2026 Gallup poll found that 70% of U.S. adults oppose having a data center built in their area. At least 11 states have now proposed legislation to restrict or ban data center development — and that number is growing every week.

Seven out of ten Americans. That is not a fringe movement. That is the majority of this country saying: enough.

THE BOTTOM LINE

Big Tech told you data centers were invisible. Just buildings full of computers. Nothing to worry about. What they didn’t tell you is that those buildings run 24 hours a day at noise levels that damage your hearing, disrupt your heart, destroy your sleep, and harm your children’s ability to learn.

And they used legal agreements to make sure you didn’t find out until it was too late to stop them. If there’s a data center near you — or one being planned — share this article immediately. People have a right to know what’s coming.
