Lokanath Rape Investigation / Initiates 500 Disciples

The India ICC Bureau's Pedophile Pada Acharya.

S Dasi: While the ISKCON Leadership Sexual Misconduct Office is investigating an alleged rape perpetrated by Lokanath swami, Lokanath should be suspended until the investigation is over.

Right now Lokanath is initiating new disciples almost on a daily basis. These photos are from a 500 - person initiation in Govardhan held on October 20, 2022.
Have these new initiates been given truthful details of Lokanath's past admitted child molestation? 

Have these new initiates been told that Lokanath is currently being investigated for rape of another victim? If they haven't, how will they feel when they find out that ISKCON has been endorsing such a man as a top spiritual leader in their religious society?

From the ISKCON Leadership Sexual Misconduct Office Guidelines:

"SUSPENSION OF A LEADER PENDING FINALISATION OF INFORMATION GATHERING AND / OR A DISCIPLINARY ENQUIRY

The Director of the PLM office in consultation with the local GBC and / or the local Temple authorities (hereinafter referred to as responsible persons) shall determine whether or not it is necessary to suspend the respondent until the information gathering and disciplinary enquiry is completed."

[PADA: Well this is not new at all. For example, they already knew Jayatirtha was having illicit sex and he was offering LSD to the shalagram, way back in 1979. But he had to stay in the guru post "to keep the faith of the followers" and he initiated many more people after that. And later on, when he left, evidently -- ISKCON lost around 1500 people from the combined areas of Jayatirtha's "guru zone." 

No, they do not inform the new people this stuff is going on left, right and center. Yes, new people feel cheated to the core when they later find out the GBC knew all along their guru is a deviant. Meanwhile even media people are NOW asking me -- why does the GBC keep propping up pedophiles as its gurus over and over and over? Don't they know by now, pedophiles are not gurus? Ummm nope. 

In fact M Dasi says that the GBC are hard at work trying to add more deviations to Krishna's guru successors, and they are behind schedule. So far they have only made illicit sex with men, women and children messiahs, now the ISKCON India / BVKS program is trying to add sex with cats, dogs, hogs etc. to their guru parampara. They have hard work to do to catch up!

But yep, any normal organization would have de-frocked Lokanath and at the very least, put him at a desk job and off the streets with no post of authority. But in ISKCON? Nope, as soon as ISKCON ICC / Bhakti Vikas swami folks finds a nice illicit sex with men, women and children, and / or sex with cats deviant, they fall off their chairs and think they have met Jesus re-incarnated. And that is why they claim Lokanath is another Jesus and he can absorb sins. Ummm, nope, he cannot. 

The question I get all the time? Why is the GBC always poking a stick in the eyes of thousands and thousands of devotees, hundreds and hundreds of women, million and millions of fried out people in the public -- by insisting that pedophiles are, were, or could have been gurus? Ummm, because they can? The self evidently do not believe there is a God, or agents of God like Yamaraja, who will punish -- and punish severely -- anyone who makes such deviants into God's successors and acharyas.

SRI ISOPANISAD:

Such (veda vada rata) people misguide others by misinterpreting the Vedic literature. Sometimes they even condemn the Puranas, which are authentic Vedic explanations for laymen. The veda-vada-ratas give their own explanations of the Vedas, neglecting the authority of great teachers (acharyas). They also tend to raise some unscrupulous person from among themselves and present him as the leading exponent of Vedic knowledge. 

[PADA: Yep, notice that the India ICC Bureau / GBC / Bhakti Vikas swami group always finds the worst case people they can -- such as their illicit sex with men, women and children deviants, sexual predators, pedophiles -- or even drunks -- to be promoted by them as God's successors. And anyone who says pure devotees should be promoted as God's successors instead of deviants -- is often summarily banned, beaten, sued, and maybe killed. Any questions? They raise some unscrupulous person from among themselves to be acharyas. Yup! And we get death threats for opposing their pedophile pooja process.] 

Such veda-vada-ratas are especially condemned in this mantra by the very appropriate Sanskrit words vidyayam ratah. Vidyayam refers to the study of the Vedas because the Vedas are the origin of all knowledge (vidya), and ratah means “those engaged.” Vidyayam ratah thus means “those engaged in the study of the Vedas.”

The so-called students of the Vedas are condemned herein because they are ignorant of the actual purpose of the Vedas on account of their disobeying the acharyas. Such veda-vada-ratas search out meanings in every word of the Vedas to suit their own purposes. They do not know that the Vedic literature is a collection of extraordinary books that can be understood only through the chain of disciplic succession.

[PADA: Yep, as soon as someone says pure devotees need to be actual pure devotees of God, the veda vada rata find all kinds of "shastra" to prove that anyone can be advertised as a pure devotee, even a pedophile like Lokanath.]

One must approach a bona fide spiritual master in order to understand the transcendental message of the Vedas. That is the direction of the Mundaka Upanishad (1.2.12). These veda-vada-rata people, however, have their own acharyas, who are not in the chain of transcendental succession. Thus they progress into the darkest region of ignorance by misinterpreting the Vedic literature. They fall even further into ignorance than those who have no knowledge of the Vedas at all.

[PADA: Right. The ordinary Joe six pack man is sinful, but at least he knows he is sinful. He would never advertise that he is the sum total of the demigods, another Jesus who can absorb sins etc. So the amount of damage Joe six pack can do to others is limited. But false acharyas can ruin the lives of thousands or even millions of others, includes banning, beating, molesting, suing and killing Vaishnavas, so their sins are ten billion times worse than Joe six pack's. Therefore they go to a far worse hell than Joe six pack, and for millions of more years.]   

The mayayapahrita-jnana class of men are self-made “Gods.” Such men think that they themselves are God and that there is no need of worshiping any other God. They will agree to worship an ordinary man if he happens to be rich, but they will never worship the Personality of Godhead. Such men, unable to recognize their own foolishness, never consider how it is that God can be entrapped by maya, His own illusory energy. If God were ever entrapped by maya, maya would be more powerful than God.

[PADA: Sulochana said the GBC is not qualified enough to find an ordinary Joe six pack man to worship. The GBC finds deviants, criminals and / or pedophiles to worship instead of the ordinary man.] 

Srila Prabhupada: You see, Kṛṣṇa says that aham tvam sarva-papebhyo mokṣayiṣyami [Bg. 18.66]. So Kṛṣṇa's so powerful that He can immediately take up all the sins of others and immediately make it gone. But when a living entity plays the part on behalf of Kṛṣṇa, he also takes the responsibility of these sinful activities of his devotee. So to become a guru is not the easy task. You see?

He has to take all the poisons and absorb. So sometimes, because he's not Kṛṣṇa, so sometimes there is some trouble. Therefore Caitanya Mahāprabhu forbidden that "Don't make many śiṣyas, many disciples." But for preaching work we have to accept many disciples, for expanding preaching. Never mind we suffer. But that's a fact. The spiritual master has to take the responsibility of all the sinful activities of his disciples. So to make many disciple is a risky job unless he's able to assimilate all the sins.

NND: ISKCON has become a joke. Until they ban all pedophiles, I will never step foot in an ISKCON temple. Quite happy to practise Krishna consciousness at home with my deities.

BED: Agree 100%

PB: Are those initiated into our parampara still, hope so? 

AG: Wow, They really don’t give F%#&!! Its blatant.

NHD: Lol 500 person initiation? ISKCON is so far gone its outrageous.

V Devi Dasi: I’m trying to find the verse where it says that a guru should not accept many disciples.

KM Das: Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore stated that the spiritual master who plays the part of Kṛṣṇa’s representative has to consume all the sinful reactions of his disciple. Sometimes a spiritual master takes the risk of being overwhelmed.

V Devi Dasi: He is making a business of this -- and he is making a point that he does it because he “can.” May all these disciples hold their guru accountable.

SMD: When a guru initiates and accepts disciplines, he shares the burden of their sinful activities. He's quite a brave person to accept so many disciples.

SHP: Wow!!!

MMD: What exactly, i wonder, would it take for PLM to determine a suspension was a good idea. Apparently a prior offense is not sufficient. Then what is?

SD: My question is, why isn’t everyone suspended while they are being investigated? Suspension doesn’t imply guilt or innocence, it just means they need to sort things out until the investigation is over. 

JD: I guess it's that " Not guilty until proven" worse in his case he admitted it ... so it's deliberate offences here .. not somewhat or what if ...

SD: In the secular world, people are kept in jail until a trial is held. Or they are let out on bond. But they are not given a free pass; it’s not “business as usual.” 

J Das: This is just so spiteful against the Vaishnava community.

Usual suspects In Attendance

J Das: Is this 500 number an exaggeration fit for his exaggerated position or what?

T Dasa: Lokanath observed the 50th anniversary of his own initiation in this way, by formally inducting ten times that number of followers.

MMD: Makes me so sick. I'm sad for iskcon.

PADA: Yep, I know a lady who collection a million dollars for ISKCON. I saw her downtown and asked her if she goes to the temple? She said no, if I want to be depressed, I will watch a horror movie.
