Is Sandipani Devi Dasi Kalakantha's Ritvik Acharya?

The Jagat Acharya of Venice Beach:

We are not really responsible for taking karma.

Umm nope, the diksha guru is taking karma.

In fact just letting random people touch your feet

in India gives one karma. 

H DASI: India is against female gurus for sure. Then Sandamani Devi Dasi must have given a ritvik initiation on behalf of Kalakantha. I found out from a friend today that Sandamani is not an official ISKCON guru. She's just a siksa guru. I told her I saw the video where she gave the name, and beads to one young lady.  But she said Sandipani was only initiating on behalf of Kalakanta Das Prabhu.  

I think that's who she said he was.  

But my question is then: if this young lady took diksa from Kalakanta dasa, or whoever the devotee's name is, then who is taking the karma of the disciple? But in the photo he was sitting right there at the time of her initiations. 

Then, why didn't he just do it himself? What's this new age thing Urmila Mataji and Sandamani are doing? Initiating on behalf of whomever the guru is. And that guy is sitting right there. Now if I were a new devotee that would make me wonder. Very strange.  

Can you explain to me how that would work?? Guru sitting right there, but the Siksa man / woman gives the name and the beads?  So distorted. Hare Krsna. ys

PADA: Kadamda Kanan swami is also doing initiations on behalf of Jayadvaita because JAS said "I have taken enough karma," so he wanted Kadamba to start taking karma. But Kadamba has already had a cancer treatment. Hee hee so .... yes now they are just shuffling karma around. I don't want it, so someone can initiate on my behalf, except that means I still get karma, they are just having a melt down ...

H DASI: Really? What bonafide guru speaks like that? "I have taken enough karma," SAD. They are having a melt down for sure.  For trying to be Prabhupada. Eventually they'll understand only Prabhupada is pure enough to take on karma.

PADA: Hrdayananda recently said he does not believe the guru is responsible for the karma if the disciple does not follow properly. Well for starters, he is getting a Vyasa pooja and he is taking karma, but neophytes cannot take karma. He is not following the orders himself, so he is getting all sorts of karma.

===============

Compare ISKCON guru Hridayananda's words with Srila Prabhupada's.

"That’s a fact. The spiritual master has to take the responsibility for all the sinful activities of his disciples. Therefore to make many disciples is a risky job unless one is able to assimilate all the sins." - Srila Prabhupada

"The idea that a guru suffers for a disciple’s, even when the guru is in no way responsible for that sin, is absurd in my view." - Hridayananda Das Goswami (Howard Resnick)

This guy is a clown. Anyone still following him is walking into a ditch.

He also claimed that japa malas were brought to India by the Portuguese. And he has no proper conduct, for example he wears shoes while doing arati to Lord Krishna, is seen walking around in the mall in bermuda shorts, etc. He is in no way a sannyasi, and is just a poser.

He also refuses to wear tulasi neckbeads, or chant on a japa mala, as that hurts his wrist, but he plays ping pong, golf and basketball.
