Was Ramesvara "Grooming" Rukmini? 01 31 25

Re: RAMESVARA’S WHISTLE BLOWER

Dear Friends and Members, Dandavats to all genuine followers of Shrila Prabhupada.
We received a message at our secret cave in the Rocky Mountains.

One of our loyal A.I.S.F. members, who is a staunch Prabhupada follower, has shared the following with our elite Power Steering Committee. Our loyal member has written to us about ex-zonal acharya and blooped ISKCON swami, Ramesvara dasa, regarding an episode that caused him to run from his “Vyasa Asan” in disgrace. It concerns a young girl that was exploited by ISKCON gurus many years ago, and who still feels the pain of being molested to this day. Having grown up now, and still a devotee, she continues to blow the whistle on ISKCON’s ex-guru Ramesvara. In fact, she has stuck to the same story and has repeated it for many years now without changing any details.
Our member writes, “It is very well documented that Ramesvara acted inappropriately towards Rukmini when he was a Sannyasi and guru, and she was still a child. That he would now attack her credibility, rather than acknowledging his responsibility, says more about Ramesvara's state of mind than Rukmini's.”
In other conversations, Rukmini has also mentioned the names of Radhanatha and Ambarish along with Ramesvara. Our member has shared Ramesvara’s reply as follows.
”Rukmini also claims I and other leaders joined a secret black magic cult to gain powers. She claims I took her to a meeting where a baby or another late term fetus was on an alter (sic) to be sacrificed. She also claims at this meeting I put a butcher knife in her hand, and using black magic induced her to cut up the baby herself …
”You can believe her wild claims and lies of crazed sex and baby sacrifices (I have the above claim from her in writing), or you could pray for her hate, her endless lies and fabrications, and her unbalanced mind to be cured in this life or the next.”
Ramesvara continues to live richly at Mayapur with you paying for his free, luxurious accommodations.
Prabhus, please note that this Rukmini is different from the wife of Anuttama, ISKCON’s GBC squeaky boy mouthpiece. Rukmini was just 14 years old at the time she was allegedly raped. We suggest that, instead of taking Ramesvara’s advice and his weak defenses in trying to dodge the issues of his well-documented scandalous past, that you just pray that your own service in devotion can be accepted by Shrila Prabhupada. Pray that, through the blessings of the genuine guru, you can go back to Godhead after this spot life has been completed.
Yours always in the service of the Vaishnavas,
Your A.I.S.F. Team

PADA: Ramesvara was sitting young girls on his lap in his office, taking Rukmini to the Santa Monica mall on "dates" and so on and so forth. Meanwhile, he was plotting how to suppress me and Sulochana. Now he has a hero welcome in Mayapur. ys pd

Rukmini: Ramesvara is totally guilty of child abuse, the leaders know it! He admitted to being attached to me in 1986 after we were repeatedly seen in , shopping malls, restaurants, the movies, and in the city of NY. He hasn't denied abusing me because he lives with guilt everyday for all his disconduct to me, other children, and so many others sincere devotees !!!!

PADA: Child mistreatment was going on -- according to a victim who talked to me --"in every nook and cranny of ISKCON." This was a widespread problem not only in your case. Another victim told me there are several thousand cases. And Ramesvara was one of the foxes in charge of counting the hens, and the hens were not being protected. He is part responsible for the entire webs and nests of mistreatment that went on left, right and center under his administration. Anyway, you go girl, lets expose these foxes and help protect the hens. ys pd

RF: Unfortunately I think he is proud of himself and does not feel any guilt because the pederast is on a total  megalomaniacal pedestal.

PW: I don't even have words anymore......Hare Krishna!

LL: I am discusted with this cult.

PW: Yes its very sorry hearing such story ..... and we keep hearing more such stories all the time about their gurus!

LL: If it only would be one suspect, but the whole thing is infested with many since the beginning ...

PW: Other hand there is no bad thing that would not work out for good. We live in the world of dualism, we can experience different drugs even in spiritual organizations...... I take lessons by such situations that Krishna teaches us how to take an example of the successes of others and not follow for the wrong activities of others. Hare Krishna

M Devi Dasi: But a simple reply of "No, I never did this" was all that was needed to be said. - It was never stated. Why? It's a simple reply, why dance around with the subject matter? Why not, "No, I never did this, and would never cause any harm to any devotee child at all!" With emphatic sincerity in his dialog.

SJ: I am viewing this as someone who has no familiarity with this situation. I can't have an educated opinion unless I have more information about the history and documented interviews that have been verified.

Rukmini: He knows he did abuse me sooo badly !!!

RM: Ram did reply to Rukmini directly and denied it, accused her of lying. That's what they do. Just lie and think that's the end of it and hope others will believe them too.

DK: That may be true, but there is much more to the mentality of a pedophile or preditor of any kind. It is about power and control and about the intrigue of secrecy.

PW: Hare Krishna! PAMHO! AGTSP! I don't know this situation at all and I can't throw a stone at anyone here, but I can ask a question who has more interest in lying - a young girl or a mature man who, as PADA described, was seen with girls on his lap. 

The young girl can possibly be persuaded to lie only if her parents persuaded her to extort money from the defendant. And an adult man has more reasons to accuse the girl because she definitely has to divert attention to the child's detriment in the face of both the court and the public. These are my preliminary considerations on this subject. What do you think about it, dear admirers?

TK: It’s very important that all members of ISKCON understand that like all powerful organizations, Satanism DID infiltrate Srila Prabhupada’s ISKCON,via power hungry individuals.

It’s not a fantasy, it’s not a lie and it’s damn sure not just a conspiracy. It is a fact.
The participants tried their best to ruin an entire generation of our children. I guess they didn’t expect many of them to grow up and TAKE THEM DOWN. All glories to the second and third generations of warriors. I offer my humble obeisances to every child brought into satanic halls of torture.

DK: The one fatal mistake made by pedophiles is that, although they have power and control over the child while they are young, somehow they forget that the child will grow up and speak the truth some day.

However, the predator is counting on the fact that the child will be to damaged from the abuse to come forward. Statistics show that adult victims of child abuse are not emotionally able to come forward until they are in their 40's and most states have laws about statues of limitations. Thus everything goes against the criminal ever receiving justice.

MG: And above that it is very difficult to believe the statements. Especially when those accused are often respected members of communities. Often those victims are marginalised. I have to admit reading this also my thought was this is going to far. Although I do not know Ramesvar neither I am his supporter and know from other sources that he was not very positive guy in past, to say mildly

DK: If anyone has doubts about the logistics of such claims such as "where could these satanic rituals have taken place?" I can confirm that directly next to the Los Angeles temple there was a Masonic Temple on Venice Blvd. When my husband was temple president there in 1976 the Masons were considering selling the building to the devotees. A few devotees including my husband went on a tour of it but they were not allowed on the top floor. Anyone familiar with Satanic practice within Masonic Lodges, the top floor is where the sacrificial altars are located. It is rumored that devotees had access to that building which is merely one block from the little girls ashram where Rukmini lived.

DL: I'm concerned how this post may impact Rukmini dd and those close to her. She does active service in a devotee community with her extended family.
I certainly wouldn't want such personal details spread all over the Internet without my consent. Our first duty of care is to her before anything else. 

DK: Rukmini often repeated these stories to members of our community. They are not new.

RF: She is on this thread. She is quite public about making everyone aware, which is why she just finished participating in the movie Monkey on a Stick.

DL: I know she's on the thread now as I reached out to her. Did not know about Monkey on a Stick.

TK: Rukmini has been steadfast in her truth for nearly 30 years now. I agree she needs to be very careful. Why should she have to be careful after all these years?
Because the people that committed such heinous acts towards her are still being sheltered and honored in ISKCON Indian temples.

I kid you not.

AA: The day of judgement will come over iskcon They will all go to hell who are demoniac.

DS: Man! Look at that photo -- swamis or ANY man who is not the parent or brother SHOULD NOT lay his GRIMEY GRUBBY HANDS on little girls. WHEN will the drive to touch children stop? EVER?

MN: Rameshvar das was always repulsive to women. This was the other side of being attractive to them due to his lust caused by the aparadha to help Tamal to masterind the guru hoax. So it was never a surprise that he sexually abused a fourteen year old kid. Who are her parents? They should have legal action for his abuse.

DK: Rukmini did not have a father figure in her life. Her mother is a sweet, kind, gentle soul. No match for the powerful in ISKCON. PLUS back in those days we were all very naive to the idea that these kinds of dark activities existed. Preditors often look for child victims who come from single parent homes with absent fathers or from troubled homes.

DL: One sannyasi is standing there as if Ramesvara's behavior is nothing unusual. The younger girl looks like she'd like to punch Ramesvara out.

Rukmini: Those are our childhood friends, Sama Veda the older girl, and Rasa lila.

MG: I don't think it is sanas, that one with danda, I think he holds only danda

RM: So sad the highest and most respected ashram in Krishna Culture for sincere spiritually-minded males has become the one to hang out in for performing the most atrocious acts. Isn't that just so Kaliyuga? So sad the children born into Krishna Consciousness, attracted to Krishna Consciousness or being entrusted to members of Krishna consciousness, which the most blissful culture and highest philosophy, are so often victimized by sexual, satanic and violent predators.

DS: Several other girls also have written testimonies on him, that are on the table of CPO, but as we know the CPO is under attack and dismantled. So this man's buddies are making sure the group of his victims remain without a voice.

RS: The madness continues! Soon he will find himself in Yamaraj’s court, where he will face the reckoning of his lifetime.

GLD: why they don t go to the police?

DU: They must present charges.

JJ: Where we don't know enough to accept or reject what we hear, we can ask ourselves, "Is this persons response to a claim of abuse representing what we would expect to hear coming from a devotee?"

DL: Rukmini, this post by JY is an extract from a recent newsletter sent out by the Absolute Is Sentient Foundation. They seem to have published an extract of Ramesvara's response to an anonymous devotee. So it's an extract of an extract, which makes it appear confusing. Also the cloaks of anonymity seem to obscure the facts also.

I don't know who runs that organisation. They like to stay anonymous. I've screenshot the newsletter for you below. This is the email address which sends out the newsletter, in case you want to try to correspond with them:
kaliyamardana108@yahoo.com

SJ: This is a she said-he said situation. I do find it hard to believe:

”Rukmini also claims I and other leaders joined a secret black magic cult to gain powers. She claims I took her to a meeting where a baby or another late term fetus was on an alter (sic) to be sacrificed. She also claims at this meeting I put a butcher knife in her hand, and using black magic induced her to cut up the baby herself …"

Some is believable and some is not-only my opinion.

I absolutely believe that Rameswara was not qualified to act as guru and should not have put himself in that position.

SJ: Do you know the answer? Her full account was not revealed in this post. I feel we should be given more information. Perhaps it's not appropriate on this forum.

MMA: I know of this story and have had more than one therapist say it is very possibly true. They hear of such things all the time. The amount if therapy it takes to get through this web if maya takes a strong devotee. Rukmini is one of Srila Prabhupada's children who came here to assist his service to Lord Caitanya. Irresponsible men are the cause of the falldown of women who are the cause if unwanted progeny which are the cause if the fall down of society.

SJ: Please understand that I am not finding fault with Rukmini or supporting Rameswara. All I'm saying is the post does not provide enough information for one to make a determination.

Rukmini: I wonder why Ramesvara doesn't share the letter I wrote to him? He just states one detail that he says I wrote to him. By the way, he has changed what I wrote, and he shares info that most people will have a hard time believing; to discredit me as a liar.

He is trying to keep the truth covered up in his closet after after so many years of abuse I was forced to suffer at his hands during my childhood. Will someone please send me the link to where he posted what he has written about me? Because I have him blocked, I may not be able it. Can someone sent me snapshots of his dialog where is writes about me ?

Where did Ramesvara write this? Why didn't he post the whole letter that states my unedited version of my truth? He chose to change details of what I wrote. Is this is the only account of what I experienced he wrote about. He chose to share someting that is quite hard for most people to believe ? Is he denying ever abusing me sexual in any way ?

DK: yes, she has told these stories often.

SJ: I pray that you will receive all the support and love you need to heal.

DK: If anyone has doubts about the logistics of such claims such as "where could these satanic rituals have taken place?" I can confirm that directly next to the Los Angeles temple there was a Masonic Temple on Venice Blvd. When my husband was temple president there in 1976 the Masons were considering selling the building to the devotees.

Anyone familiar with Satanic practice within Masonic Lodges, the top floor is where the sacrificial altars are located. It is rumored that devotees had access to that building which is merely one block from the little girls ashram where Rukmini lived.

YD: That’s on another level of their perversion !!Sadly I’m not even surprised..

Rukmini: Have you all seen this post and thread?

DS: The Hare Krishna sex bomb ...sex bomb sex bomb he's a sex bomb.

Tulsi Gabbard / Jiva Tattva / Sulochana / Devamrita 01 29 25




TULSI GABBARD

PADA editor was just interviewed by a professional journalist about Tulsi Gabbard. He reads the PADA blog. I will post his article here once it is published. I tried to say her guru's program -- Siddha's Hawaii group -- is a little unauthorized, but it is not as bad as ISKCON proper, since none of his people ever threatened to have me killed. Nor are there a lot of reports of child abuse and other crimes. 

So Siddha has a better profile than ISKCON, but that is not really a big recommendation either. In the end, I said Tulsi has a better track record than many other cabinet picks going on now, so I would tend to support her, because for starters -- another choice could be worse. I think she means well and is less motivated than a lot of the others, but that does not mean her choices will be guaranteed as good. 

Sorry I could not have been more helpful to her cause. I wish her well, and if she gets approved, maybe she can be a good influence. Let us see how it all unfolds. 

This is another article on the topic: 


THE FALL DOWN OF THE JIVA

Letter to Jagadisa dasa -- Los Angeles 25 April, 1970

"Regarding your questions about how and from where did the conditioned souls fall, your first question if someone has a relationship with Lord Krsna on Krsnaloka, does he ever fall down? The souls are endowed with minute independence as part of their nature and this minute independence may be utilized rightly or wrongly at any time, so there is always the chance of falling down by misuse of one's independence. 

But those who are firmly fixed up in devotional service to Krsna are making proper use of their independence and so they do not fall down. Regarding your second question, have the conditioned souls ever seen Krsna? Were they with the Lord before being conditioned by the desire to lord it over material nature? Yes, the conditioned souls are parts and parcels of the Lord and thus they were with Krsna before being conditioned. Just as the child must have seen his father because the father places the child in the womb of the mother, similarly each soul has seen Krsna or the Supreme Father. But at that time the conditioned souls are resting in the condition called susupti which is exactly deep sleep without dream, or anesthetized state, therefore they do not remember being with Krsna when they wake up in the material world and become engaged in material affairs. I hope this will satisfy your questions."

"GET SULOCHANA" CONSPIRACY

January 26, 2019: On this date in history 6 years ago, a reader writes to the author about “Killing For Krishna”:

Hare Krishna, Hrishikesh Prabhu,

So I’m once again struggling emotionally with this entire sordid affair, and having been a part of it. I’m still struggling with the fact that I went to New Vrindaban to serve Srila Prabhupada and ended up involved in criminal activity, including murder. I have unplugged from social media to avoid dealing with it. But I stand by what I said in a previous message to you.

I will just tell you that when Sulochan was being stalked much of the communications went through my telecom systems. At some point I was told directly that “they are going to kill him.” I don’t want to go into any more details, you’ve got all the players right as far as I know and you know more details than I at this point. Besides it was so long ago that details are getting harder for me to remember.

I was surprised to hear that you didn’t know beforehand, about the murder conspiracy; to me it seemed common knowledge at that time, but thinking back, this may be blurred memory. But just like the morning after the murder at mangal-aroti there was like this electricity in the air and a buzz of whisper, “The demon was killed!” 

This was only hours after the murder. Who told whom?

Anyway, the thing is that you have put it all together, and as I have said numerous times, that the accounts in your book are as I remember them. I haven’t started reading it again but I may soon. And as far as why I am saying this now there is no specific reason. Maybe because I need to get this off my chest before death. Mostly I want to defend my fellow devotees who have spoken the truth about this and have been discredited as liars.

Your servant,

Jyotirdhama dasa, ACBSP (Joe Pollock, Jr.)

Richland, Washington,

former Telecom Manager at New Vrindaban

HH Bhakti Vishramba Madhava Maharaja Ki Jai!

DD: My last time seeing Maharaja was startling. He was physically invalid and locked up in fetal position, going through the final stages of neurological shut down. His eyes still had their remarkable incisiveness, but aside from that it was clear his body was failing him. I have some familiarity around that now, but its still remains confronting to witness up close. I was asked by a dear friend, one of his disciples, to bring Maharaja a few gifts to support what comfort could be there in these last days. I offered my obeisances as I left his little room in the goshala, feeling this would likely be my last time seeing this precious sadhu.

It became clear the rest of Maharaja's visit that goddess Vrinda devi, ruler of the sacred Vrindavan forest, was Maharaja's mother. He spoke of her with the ubiquity a religious person might attribute the influence of God - all things through Him - and yet it was with the intimacy of a son that he would express her hand in his life. All details of what was happening were a sign of her love and care for him, and in support of his life's purpose - the worship of his Krishna Balarama shilas. 

I understood during this visit that Maharaja's time with us, and my chance to witness his unabashed obsession with Vrinda devi and Krishna Balarama, was my first conscious experience of closely associating with an uninhibited vaisnava in the last stages of their maturing bhajan. When Sri Visvanatha says devotees with deep taste will confuse and bewilder neophytes. When he says they will appear mad and erratic to the truly ignorant... here it was in front of me. 

Maharaja would give elaborate and exuberant narrations of the cowherd boys pastimes, of the teasing of the gopis, of the cleverness of Baldau and Kanai - but not be able to hold more than a few sentences of conversation with a person in front of him. I've met other 'spiritualists' like that too, but somehow they manage to organize media teams and global tours for themselves despite their otherwise seemingly limited capacity socially. What Maharaja had was not that common arrogance. His apparent indifference and insensitivity came not from conceitedness, but from a consciousness deeply attached and connected to a mystic reality most around him didn't even yet dare to consider personally - despite espousing faith in it generally.

A few days after his passing I went down to our Tulsi room to glorify him to her as a kind of funeral ceremony and thank her for bringing him to us. She reassured me that his last days were only difficult from my typical point of view. Actually, he spent his last moments in this world laying as a gentle infant in the lap of his doting mother, where his heart had already been resting for so long. 

His death in Vrindavan was a promise for all those that care about him that Love has secured his eternal life with those Boys he cherished above anyone else, and that they will see Maharaja again when they are also ready to go there.

HH Bhakti Vishramba Madhava Maharaja Ki Jai!

Vrinda Rani Ki Jai!

Srila Prabhupada Ki Jai!

PADA: I see this a lot. This ISKCON guru or that guru is obsessed with Vrnda Devi, worshiping Silas, discussing Krishna's pastimes, finding old Vaishnava relics etc. Sounds great. But that is not their primary job. 

Their primary job as managers is to make sure there are no bogus acharyas; and no banning, beating, molesting, lawsuits if not murders going on. But these problems have been going on left, right and center while these leaders are holed up in the dham or etc. not minding the business of the society, or their showing concern for the welfare of the citizens. For example -- all sorts of children are being mistreated all over the place, and none of these guys seems to want to address the problem. Too busy doing their sadhana etc. 

Of course HKC Jaipur's Prahlad said the same thing, sure PADA is saving children from sexual crimes and abuse -- but so what? He is bogus for not chanting his rounds. PADA should be like us -- and abandon helping others -- and only save himself! OK but if you neglect helping others, you condemn yourself, just like the Kauravas were condemned for not helping Draupadi.

And that is why the local police said to me, it seems like the only people who want to save children from abuse are the people who are not "strictly following" like you and Sulochana. It seems the strict followers are cursed -- not to know the real purpose of religion. And it looks like they are strictly following the lemmings jumping into the ocean. Yup!

Maharaja cherished the cowherd boys of Krishna leela, but not the cowherd boys of the ISKCON society he was supposed to be a leader of. That means he failed to serve, help and support the boys in his own home town house here, so how can he claim to be serving the boys in a higher house on Krishna loka? 

Sorry, this means he neglected his primary duty, to serve and help the boys here, and then serve the boys in Krishna leela later on. When the citizens here are suffering, your job as a leader is to help them. 

But he also thought he could be another Jesus and take sins from people. So that was another example of how he could not even save -- himself. So he takes the karma of neglecting the citizens in his society's care, and he even neglected his own welfare by taking sins without authority. 

Sorry none of this is "very advanced." And in the end ISKCON did not take care of him either, because the society he served is false, so it does not take good care of anyone -- except a few rich and famous cabal elites. And he was not one of them, so he was neglected. Yeah everyone else is suffering and I am sitting around discussing Vrnda Devi. 

And Vrnda Devi is disgusted with misrepresenting her, because she does care for others. So the consensus is, the Maharaja went bat sh*t bonkers, which is what happens when one misuses one's intelligence, takes karma without authority and so on. And it looks like more and more of them are suffering from that same ailment. Srila Prabhupada told us, being in the dham can be both good and bad, good action is multiplied 10,000 times, but bad action is also multiplied the same. And if you commit offenses here, you will go mad.

DEVAMRITA DECLARATION (Blame the victim)

My declaration…

The proverbial ‘elephant in the room’ … is my re-entry in to Iskcon after being excommunicated during the New Vrindavan years was under an agreement of amnesty, I continue an expectation of that amnesty being honored, I reserve my right to silence on questions around my involvement in the activities of the time, assets I had control over, and the ongoing proprietorship of said assets.
In unison with the vast majority of my Sannyasi godbrothers, I decline to participate in the GBC mandate that Sannyasis’ declare their assets and income on an annual basis. I include questions around my Australian registered company ‘Jay Matsya Superannuation’ within this privacy.

I have several aliases that I have not deemed necessary to declare publicly in the past, Devamrita Swami, Jay Matsya, and my birth name Lee Reynolds. I have been married and divorced twice, once to a Polish devotee, once to a Danish devotee. There have been times where I have denied being married.

In 2016 a recording was made public of me giving advice in regards to how local authorities should deal with the reporting of a sexual assault. In the recording I advise them to try and get the victim to state it was mutual and that it will all go away. No Iskcon authority has expressed to me that this advice is inappropriate.

Your humble servant, Devamrita Swami

Prayers to Lord Narasimha (Madhva Sampradaya)



PADA: I am a big fan of Lord Narasimgha. Love that personality. Here we find prayers to glorify Him, and subdue our enemies. Of course, in Kali Yuga our enemies are already being consumed and conquered by the material energy very readily. They basically defeat themselves. 

That is the process of the material energy especially in this age. Lord Chaitanya says -- there is thus no need to chastise evil doers in this age, because they are already suffering defeat at every stage by themselves. Therefore, as Srila Bhaktisiddhanta says, our own real worst enemy is -- our own mind. 

Thus our real worst enemy is our own selves in Kali Yuga. So I think we should apply this prayer to take out our own worst enemy, namely -- our false ego selves and our own false conceptions and illusions. 

Anyway this is an interesting set of prayers in my opinion and yep, I like them. Hope you'll like them too! ys pd


PRAYERS TO LORD NARASIMHA

From Madhvacarya Sampradaya:

1. udaya ravi sahasra-dhyotitam ruksa-viksam pralayajaladhi-nadam kalpa-kridvahni-vaktramsura-pati-ripu-vakshah-kshoda-rakta-kshitangam pranata-bhaya-haram tam narasimham namami

The radiance of a thousand rising suns is the glow on the Lord's face. His eyes are fiery and His voice roars like the turbulent ocean of devastation. His body is wet with the blood of Indra's foe, Hiranyakashipu. Lord Narasimha, the redeemer of the fear ridden, I bow down to Your feet.

2.pralaya-ravi-karalakara-rukchakra-valamvirala-yaduru-rocirocitashanta-ralam prati-bhaya-tama-kopatyutkatoccatta-hasindahadaha narasimasahya-viryahitam me

Your effulgence is dazzling like that of the destructive sun, pralayaravi. It glows and glitters, makes the wicked tremble with fear. You laugh in a piercing high tone at the fear, ignorance and anger of the demons. Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

3. sara-sarabha-sapadapata-bharabhiravapracakita-chala-sapta-dvandva-loka-stutastvam ripu-rudhira-nishekenaivashonamghri-shalin daha dahanarasimasahya-viryahitam me

Your lotus feet are reddened by the blood of the enemy. Fourteen lokas are scared by the stamping of Your feet. Demigods assemble, fear and tremble and pray for Your mercy. Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

4. tava ghanaghana-ghosho ghoram aghrayajamgha parighamalaghum uru-vyaja-tejo-girim cha ghana vighatitamaga-daitya-jamghala-samghodaha daha narasimasahya-viryahitam me

You take great pleasure in slaughtering the armies of the demons. You wield Your heavy mace in a most cunning manner with the force of a great mountain. As You chop demons into pieces others immediately flee for their lives. Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

5. kataki-kata-karala-dhatakagrya-stha-labhaprakata-pata-tadit te sat-katishthati-patvi katuka katuka dushtatopadrishti-pramushtau daha daha narasimhasahya viryahitam me

The mountains of Your hips are nicely decorated with yellow garments, which appear just like lightning in its intense brilliance. Attacking fiercely he who had the foremost position (the seat of King Indra), You removed the threat of that exceedingly wicked one. O ferocious one! Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

6. prakhara-nakhara-vajrotkhata-rukshari-vakshaha shikhari-shikhara raktai rakta nandoha-deha suvalibha-shubha-kukshe bhadra gambhira-nabhe daha daha narasimasahya viryahitam me

As Your nails, sharp like thunderbolts, tore the abdomen of the enemy, blood surged from the body of the demon and bathed You. Your lotus-like navel is deep and Your abdomen is decorated with the auspicious three lines. Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

7. sphurayati tava sakshat saiva nakshatra-mala kshapita-ditija-vaksho-vyapta-nakshatra-marga ari-dara-dhara-janvasakta-hasta-dvayaho dahadaha narasimasahya viryahitam me

Your two hands, as they directly burst open the chest of the son of Diti, appear just like a necklace of stars. Supporting him on Your knees, You tore his chest apart which blocked the path of the stars. Burn Narasimha, burn my adversaries with Your unbearable power.

8. katu-vikata-sataudho-dhattanad bhrashta-bhuyo ghana-patala-vishalakasha-labdhavakasham kara-parigha-vimarda-prodyamam dhyayatas te daha daha narasimasahya viryahitam me

Your mane is burning and monstrous, and You cause the enemy to fall from his position by tearing apart his chest. Once attaining the opportunity, under the broad roof of the clouds and sky, You raise Your hand, powerful as a mace, to strike. I meditate upon You in this form.

The enemy of Indra (Hiranyakashipu) made waves in the ocean of demigods and took the shraddha offerings meant for the forefathers.

Ramesvara's "Rukmini" Speaks Up etc. 01 25 25


Siyah

PADA: Siyah -- gone at only 17. Yes prabhu, seeing how uncertain and whimsical our life span is, it is rather shocking that so many senior Prabhupada devotees go all the way to the end of their lives -- without ever making any public comment on the state of ISKCON, the position of an actual acharya etc. For example -- do they agree or not agree with the 1978 guru appointment, the book changes, the offering of bhogha to deviants, what to speak of the poison issue and etc. 

Nobody knows what the bulk of them think. In fact generally we do not hear anything until they are on death's door, then we get to "pray for them." Worse, a number of them still argue that we need to worship the so-called living person, and they recite the GBC, Gaudiya Math or Narayan Maharaja propaganda. However, most of them just retreated into the wood work, and no one can even find most of them for the most part. A number of them also die with no known announcement because no other devotees even know they died. 

They basically abandoned ship when the ship hit stormy weather. Yep, that is what happened. But you are right, the law of God is something like -- repent now -- or be condemned till the end of time for -- not -- repenting. How true! So the window of time for them to speak up and clear the record is gradually closing -- on all of them. 

Similarly, the time for victims is also closing and therefore more and more of them are coming forward. The fact that it has taken so long for some of these victims to come forward is proof that they did not get proper resources, support, help, sympathy, and empathy. Thus they had to largely suffer in silence -- to save the mighty GBC guru regime.

RAMESVARA IS MY ABUSER

Rukmini Dasi

YES, why are high profile EX Gurus like Robert Grant / Ramesvara , after sexually abusing me throughout my childhood -- allowed live in ISKCON Mayapur and put into high profile respected leader positions?

He is now well respected within ISKCON Internationally, giving Bhagavatam classes where ever he travels, & is currently in charge of the Westside of the Mayapur Planetarium !!! He has been accepted in this exalted position once again even though all the GBC and leaders of ISKCON well know he was abusing me & other Gurukulis and having illicit affairs with his God sisters while he was in charge of the BBT, GBC, & an initiating Guru!!!

PADA: Yes, this poor lady has taken a very long time to expose her abuse as a child. No doubt this has given her a long life of grief, anxiety, fear, embarrassment, guilt and a host of other negative emotions, as it has for other victims.   

She was asking me to help her go public with her story long ago, but then she said wait, not yet -- and all that. This went on and on. She wanted to speak up, but was obviously afraid of the repercussions from "the devotees." And rightly so! 

Many so-called members of the devotees sector have wanted to bite my head off -- since I began asking why the children have to worship deviants, in 1978. Anyone else who complains -- including victims -- can potentially get jack booted in the face. Or worse.

And that suppresses testimony from victims, and us whistle blowers, from coming forward. This poor girl knew if she speaks out, she can expect nearly NO SUPPORT from the devotee community, and maybe also LOTS OF PUSH BACK, as has happened in many other victim cases. And that is one reason there are so many victims, when the means of correcting the problem is suppressed. 

Therefore many of the victims suffer in silence, fearing that if they speak out they will become shunned, exiled pariahs, if not victims of an insult and personality attack program, or they may even get threats of violence (as has happened) and so on. This push back has happened to too many of them to serve as a warning to the rest. Don't speak up, or else!

Same dynamic in many other bogus cults. We cannot go after the top leaders because, they wield a lot of power, and have a fanatical fan base. So when the Windle Turley lawsuit was filed -- to help liberate hundreds of children from their schools -- to stop other kids from going to their schools -- to help curb the suicides -- and to get victims some cash to start their lives off -- we got tremendous push back from leaders, seniors, parents and even some of the Narayan Maharaja people said I was "picking on Tamal as a personal grudge."

And then GBC help mates Sanat and Mukunda wrote on their site that they wanted to see the gurukula victims -- killed in a bloodbath -- in Dallas. Right away some of the victims noticed, Sanat and Mukunda wanted zero punishment for the perps, leaders, seniors, enablers, sycophants etc. -- only the victims have to suffer, not the regime. Of course later HKC Jaipur guys like Prahlad began to advertise these folks as his mentors.

Same thing when we got the poison tape, the person who gave me the tape said never mention his name in public. Right away Sanat and Mukunda mentioned his name, to make him a target and suppress his testimony. 

OK all of this is called suppressing the testimony of victims, and / or witness tampering. This is quite common in MAFIA style gangster mob operations. The snitch is suppressed, or even murdered etc. So a lot of effort has been made to suppress victims by leaders, seniors, parents, and their fanatical henchmen. 

Therefore victims are reluctant to come forward. I also have friends who said their kids were treated badly, but these victim kids are now afraid -- and cannot say anything. The kids are afraid they will lose their friends and status in the Krishna community, be banished, be branded as offenders to the GBC guru etc. And some of them are doing business with other devotees and they fear losing their income and so on.

In any case, it is what it is. More victims are coming out and that is good, and it will help them have closure. At the same time, the society that caused them to be fearful to come out in the first place is part responsible for all their long time suffering. PADA is being credited by a number of victims with giving them the courage and fortitude to speak up. And we appreciate that. 

The reason we speak up is, as Trivrikrama swami says, PADA is like the junkyard dog of ISKCON. Barking at the junkyard dog will just produce a counter barking from him. Whereas these victims are in a fragile PTSD type state of shock and we just cannot expect them to run out and challenge the regime. 

A number of them call themselves "gurukula survivors." That means they know, a number of their peers -- did not survive. Anyway, now Ramesvara has ran off to be associated with the other members of the Jokernath lusty dog's messiah's club in Mayapur. He has found his home. He has run away, but he has caused a lot of suffering to a lot of people, including this child, her life has been derailed in so many ways, and he will be held to account by the higher authority eventually. You can run, but you cannot hide, from the all seeing and all knowing omnipresent karma. ys pd

Different Kind of Life: Bhaktavasya's Story Paperback 

July 10, 2024 by Bhaktavasya Devi Dasi (Author) 

"This story has been a work in progress for over 20 years. During the writing of the book I learned valuable lessons about the subtle nature of desire, self-deception, the dangers of depending on what the wisdom teachings call ‘fallible soldiers,’ destiny, forgiveness and what needs to be let go of as well as what is valuable in life or what cannot be taken away. 

If my story can help others avoid some of the same pitfalls I encountered and shine a light on the beauty that has also graced my life, then it is already a successful endeavour."--Bhaktavasya devi dasi 

"Different Kind of Life" is a memoir of a female Hare Krishna devotee who was initiated by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in Toronto, Ontario in October 1973. In this fascinating, honest and very personal account, Bhaktavasya devi dasi vividly describes her early life as a child in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, getting in trouble with the law, life as an inmate at the Andrew Mercer Reformatory for Women, getting hooked on recreational drugs, her release and marriage, and meeting the Hare Krishna people. 

She joins the Hindu cult and begins working the airports. She moves to New Vrindaban in West Virginia for a time, but has a battle of wills with the commune's leader, Kirtanananda Swami, and leaves. Eventually, after the passing of the Hare Krishna movement founder, she becomes lovers with one of the eleven men known as Zonal Acharyas who succeeded Prabhupada as leaders of the Hare Krishna movement. 

Jayatirtha, who founded a branch of the Hare Krishnas which consume LSD as the "Blessed Sacrament," tells his disciples to call her "Holy Mother." Eventually Bhaktavasya becomes hurt and disillusioned when her husband Jayatirtha runs off with another woman. Within a short time, one of Jayatirtha's former disciples attacks his "spiritual master" and severs his guru's head with a large knife. 

This story contains mature subject matter.

THE FREEDOM OF A FOOTBALL 

"The freedom of football. The football is kicked from this party and thrown to the other party. The other party kicks and it comes. The football thinks... If the football thinks that "I am in freedom movement," so what is that freedom? Kicked from this party to that party and that... 

So here the same thing is said, kāma-krodhera dāsa hañā tāra lāthi khāya. Just like the football players—the football is under the kicking method of two parties—similarly, we are under the kicking method of two things, lust and anger. We are lusty, and when our lust is not fulfilled, then we become kicked by anger. 

Two things. Just like the football is kicked by this party and that party, similarly, our position is we are being kicked sometimes by lust and sometimes by anger. So we are going on leading our life in this way. kāma-krodhera dāsa hañā tāra lāthi khāya bhramite bhramite yadi sādhu-saṅga pāya Now, in this way we are passing our life, but if by chance we get association of a saintly person... tāṅra upadeśa-mantre piśāci palāya kṛṣṇa-bhakti pāya, tabe kṛṣṇa-nikaṭa yāya If by chance we get association of a pure devotee, then by his mercy this illusion becomes over. 

Tāṅra upadeśa, by his instructions. Sādhu-saṅga means tasmād satsu sajjeta buddhimān. Therefore it is advised that everyone should seek association of saintly persons. And by saintly person's instruction, this ghost of ignorance will be removed. Tāṅra mantre. Just like you have seen ghostly haunted persons? 

In India there are so many cases. So there are chanter also. What is called, enchanter or...? Those who are, if he can make treatment a ghostly... 

Devotees: Magician? Medium? 

Prabhupāda: Not magician. 

Devotee: Medium. 

Prabhupāda: Not medium. Enchanter I think you call. 

Devotee: A sorcerer. 

Prabhupāda: A sorcerer, yes. So they chant some hymns and the ghosts go away. Similarly, if we chant this Hare Kṛṣṇa, then the ghost of māyā by which we are being kicked from this side to that side, that will be over. Tāṅra mantre. If the instruction is received from a saintly person, sādhu, then this illusion of being kicked up from this side to that side by lust and anger under the spell of this material energy will be over. 

Tāṅra upadeśa-mantre piśāci palāya. Then? What is next? Kṛṣṇa-bhakti pāya, tabe kṛṣṇa-nikaṭa yāya. Then his beginning of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is there. Kṛṣṇa consciousness begins from there. If by chance, in this way... Just like the football is being kicked. Some way or other, if he goes out of the line the kicking is stopped. 

Similarly, we also, if we get the shelter and association of a bona fide saintly person, then this business of being kicked by lust and anger is stopped by his instruction, by his advice." —Lecture, Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Madhya-lila 22.11-15, New York, January 9, 1967

Unity / Radhanath / Vaiyasaki / New Book 01 23 25


PADA: Life in the dham. Yeah, it is a struggle. I believe there are both good and bad devotees there. Some are there to make a show and get some name, fame and recognition. Some are sincere. I pray that the insincere / exploiters will not exploit the sincere, but I already know of a number of examples where the sincere have got trapped in the webs of the insincere. Anyway, good luck to the sincere folks.   




PRABHUPADANUGAS UNITY

JCD: We should work to unify the Prabhupadanugas in 2025, as our new years goal. Therefore you at PADA should be helping to get that done. Just my humble suggestion.  

PADA: Thanks JCD. Great idea. It seems that one of the main sticking points on so-called Prabhupadanuga unity is -- how to keep children safe from exploiting and abuse. PADA has said all along -- a number of ISKCON children have been suffering in a process of being starved, beaten, even raped, and there has been a growing suicide problem. So we needed to help them, and we did. Hundreds of kids were liberated from GBC schools, and we helped get them some much needed cash, the suicides problem dropped off dramatically etc. 

But then some alleged "Prabhupadanugas" began a campaign to suppress our efforts and they all began to cite the cheer leaders of the GBC's pedophile guru program as their authority. Oddly, GBC guys, other seniors, and guys like HKC Jaipur's senior man Prahlad, Krishna Kirtan etc. said I was "destroying ISKCON." Translation: many kids were no longer in their anal reconstructive surgery epidemic program -- and that would end ISKCON.

That means evidently -- they believe mass child mistreatment is -- ISKCON. And that is also evidently why so many cases were never reported, parents did not want to hurt what they thought was "ISKCON." And that is why some victims were committing suicide, they were basically neglected, denied and tossed under the bus to save "ISKCON." It was taboo to mention their problem, which simply spread the problem.

So if we are to now unite, the people who have objected to our saving children from abuse, rapes and suicides need to write a public retraction, saying they agree 1,000% with us -- child abuse, rapes and suicides needs to be checked, and PADA is right to have the pro-children policy.  

Moreover, they have been wrong to cite the cheer leaders of the pedophile guru program as their authority. If they still believe the pro-pedophile guru cheer leaders folks are authorized -- and citing these cheer leaders is bona fide, we cannot unite. At the same time, 95% of the other Prabhupadanugas all already agree with PADA, child beatings, rapes and suicides must be stopped. And none of them ever cites the GBC's cheer leaders. 

It is only their little break away splinter groups in UK and Germany that have been promoting the cheer leaders of the pro-pedophile guru's agenda. So they should join with the rest of us Prabhupadanugas, and make unity happen. The ball is in their court, and has been all along. At the same time I am not too worried, every Mc Donald's hamburger eating Joe on the street already agrees with PADA, child beatings, rapes and suicides has to be checked. Or you are not among the human species, and barely in the sub-humans. Duh-oh! 

That is the normal moral position of any ordinary sensible human being, even the atheist humans agree with PADA -- like my atheist neighbor lady. She says -- there may -- or may not -- be a heaven and hell -- but if there is, these people will all be in that hell. And she says -- the people who oppose you are the real reason religion has a bad name, and these hypocrites are the main reason she is not a religious person. Too many awful hypocrites. True dat!

And it is rather amazing we had to spill so much ink to re-explain this over and over, when the average Joe agrees, even the atheists agree, in two seconds. These splinter off folks need to start to agree if they want unity. 

But Krishna allows whatever people want. And the people who want to join the cheer leaders of a homosexual and pedophile guru process are allowed to do so. It is up to them to change their desire, we cannot do that for them. And we should also take into account -- mass child abuse is only one of many issues, we also forwarded the bogus appointment, the changed books, the poison issue, and many others. All of these issues need to be addressed / rectified, or there is not a real reform. And kicking down on us, is enabling and helping keep all these deviations in power.

January 24, 2008: On this date in history 17 years ago, in a letter to the author, Tirtha in prison threatens the author that if he publishes his forthcoming history book(s) about New Vrindaban, “You will gain nothing but pain and suffering in your life.”

PS from the author: "Hey, godbrother, Tirtha in prison! Guess what! Publishing my ISKCON history books HAS NOT brought me pain and suffering! In fact, I've made dozens, if not hundreds, of friends! When are you gonna own up and admit that Radhanath Swami was the Leader of the Pack?"

PADA: Oh sheesh, leader of the pack no less, and now the main big cheese of ISKCON.

Vaiyasaki Speaks


The following are some comments by HG Vaiyasaki prabhu on the topic of B.G. 9.30.

‐--------‐--------------------------

"Regarding BVPS Sivaram Swami writes: "

For those of you who don’t think an abuser deserves care I cite the following:
"Even if one commits the most abominable action, if he is engaged in devotional service he is to be considered saintly because he is properly situated in his determination?"

"I didn’t write that. Krsna said it. How do we incorporate Bhagavad-gita into the way we deal with abusers? I know its not politically correct. Is BVPS strictly engaged in service? From what I hear he has had strict and extensive sadhana the last 10 years. If he is properly situated in his determination—and that’s for Mayapur management to determine—then how do we deal with considering him saintly? How can an abuser also be saintly—good GBC discussion topic. Its there in our main scripture and we can’t ignore it. At least I can’t. Nor should any devotee.

That’s all regarding BVPS". Your servant, Sivarama swami.

VD: Quoting BG 9:30 without understanding the meaning is not a very good example from a guru. Prabhupada clearly explains that this verse refers only to "accidental falldown." Prabhupada continually uses the phrase accidental falldown in the purport. On a morning walk and in a Bhagavatam class he states that if the falldown is deliberate, not accidental, that is the Greatest Offense.

"Caitanya Mahāprabhu accepted Jagāi and Mādhāi; they were very sinful. What is their sin? They're illicit sex, woman-hunter, drunkard, meat-eater—that is sinful activities according to Vedic scripture. So they became debauched and guṇḍā, disturbing element. But Caitanya Mahāprabhu delivered them. Caitanya Mahāprabhu delivered them on one condition. What is that condition?

When they fell down on the lotus feet of Lord Caitanya and Nityānanda, "Sir, we are so much sinful. Kindly deliver us"—there is a long history, incident; I will tell you some day—this Caitanya Mahāprabhu made one condition, that "I can accept you only on your promise that you shall no more commit sinful activities. What you have done, that's all right; I will excuse. But if you commit again, that will be greatest offense." SB 6.1.38

BVPS has abused children for years on end. He has committed the greatest offense because his falldowns weren't accidental, they were planned. He didn't become reformed but continued to prey upon innocent victims.

Why does Sivaram Swami not understand this?

Pedophilia is like alcoholism. It's a disease that can't be cured. The only method to be free is to have zero connection to alcohol, to have zero connection with children. But BVPS cleverly sidestepped the restrictions to save himself from further accidental falldowns. That is the proof that his falldown was not accidental, but planned. And his karma caught up with him.

Prabhpada continues in the purport [SB 6.1.38]

"So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, following the footsteps of Lord Caitanya, we are also following the same principles under the authority of Lord Caitanya. When we accept somebody in our Society as initiated member, we put forward these obligations, restriction, that no more illicit sex life, no more gambling, no more intoxication and no more animal food. That is necessary.

If you accept spiritual life and at the same time go on committing sinful activities, then you will never be able to progress. That is not possible. Because in the Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly said by Kṛṣṇa,

yeṣām anta-gataṁ papa
janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām [Bg. 7.28]

"Persons who are completely freed from all contamination of sinful activities and simply engaged in pious activities, they only are admitted in devotional service."
So yes, Sivaram Maharaja, let's follow BG 9:30, and let's follow the example given by Lord Chaitanya, for accidental falldowns. But never for planned falldowns. That is the teaching of Sri Krishna, Lord Chaitanya, and Srila Prabhupada.
Prabhpada continues in the purport [SB 6.1.38]

NOTICE OF NEW BOOK:

SRILA PRABHUPADA- TRIUMPHANT DEPARTURE

Complete Book of Poisoning Evidence

(Volume One in the Personal Ambition series)

Paperback, 508 pg, 6”x9” with 64 ch’s, 13 appendices.

This volume is the comprehensive presentation of evidence, facts, and results of the 25 year private investigation by disciples into the homicidal poisoning of his Divine Grace Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. It is unbiased with only a truth agenda. Included is Srila Prabhupada's own statements plus conversations with his caretakers on malicious poisoning, and forensic scientific studies and discoveries. It reviews the irrefutable proof of Srila Prabhupada's lethal heavy metals poisoning with 250 X normal cadmium and 20 X normal arsenic over at least 10 months in 1977.

Also, the whitewash coverups by ISKCON’s GBC, detailed extrapolations for those in denial, and the shastric view of Srila Prabhupada's transcendental disappearance pastimes, which magnify the glories of the exalted, amazingly tolerant pure devotee.

From mid-1976 Srila Prabhupada unexplainedly became increasingly weak and ill. Despite treatment from various Ayurvedic doctors, he mysteriously did not improve. He spoke about being poisoned. He and his caretakers discussed his homicidal poisoning at length. The next day his caretakers were tape recorded speaking about poisoning him. He had a set of 12 heavy metal poisoning symptoms which do not fit with diabetes or kidney disease.

From 1998 to 2005 seven hair tests found lethal levels of heavy metals. ISKCON has covered-up the poison issue with desperate denials, a false investigation by the suspects themselves, fraudulent testimony, repressive edicts, and character assassinations.

This is the unvarnished, unadulterated truth, facts, and evidence about Srila Prabhupada's glorious and triumphant disappearance pastimes to all his followers and admirers. Herewith is the conclusive, irrefutable evidence of his poisoning with 250 X normal cadmium levels and 23 X normal arsenic levels.

Whatever consequences follow, it is up to Lord Krishna. Scientific forensic discoveries have proven beyond doubt that Srila Prabhupada was maliciously and homicidally poisoned for at least 10 months in1977. This truth is highly relevant to all in the Hare Krishna movement and will have deep ramifications for its future. The truth always serves us well, whereas ignorance and falsehood are always detrimental.

Uninformed detractors raise various flawed objections (Ch. 58). It is not so much that people disagree with the evidence, but that they do not know what it is. They most likely never even read the 1977 “poison discussions” with Srila Prabhupada and his caretakers (Part 2, Appendix 6). If they did, there would be 99% less doubts and questions. May the truth be known and institutional obstruction eviscerated.

"A servant of Srila Prabhupada is naturally interested to hear and understand about all of Srila Prabhupada’s pastimes- his embarking on the Jaladuta, rising at 1 AM to speak his purports into the dictaphone, dancing in kirtan, leading Jaya Radha Madhava, and his disappearance pastime. Of course, each pastime of Srila Prabhupada has its distinctive flavor, and invokes diverse emotions. Truth about events surrounding Srila Prabhupada’s disappearance have been concealed, and thus we can appreciate the efforts to reveal them, if not exhaustively, at least thoroughly, comprehensively. 

While there are more details to emerge, this volume provides a clear picture of what happened, through the tremendous research and efforts that were made. As we learn more and more about the events surrounding the disappearance of Srila Prabhupada, our admiration for his inconceivably transcendental character is enhanced- at least, that’s the case for me, and I trust that it will be similarly so for those who carefully study the happenings surrounding Srila Prabhupada’s disappearance. 

My preference, for sure, in relation to the disappearance pastime of Srila Prabhupada, would be to simply, directly glorify Srila Prabhupada for the awe-inspiring transcendental qualities he demonstrates. As I indicated above, though, truths related to his disappearance have been deliberately concealed. Thus, to maximize the possibility that the information in this volume will be examined and received by as many people as possible, it’s necessary, or at least real helpful, to expose the deception that has been perpetrated, so that readers and potential readers are free from the influence of the knowledge filter created by ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness)." (Dhira Govinda das)

That Srila Prabhupada was maliciously poisoned and his mission was then hijacked is no longer a theory. The proven facts, science, and evidence lead to an irrefutable, irrevocable conclusion.

WHAT IS THE NATURE OF THE SOUL? 

Jayatīrtha: Philosophers generally try to use their mind to speculate about the nature of the soul. But with the mind they can never understand… Prabhupāda: Just like the madman is speculating. He is thinking, “I am president. Bas, finished.” He is lying down on the street, “Oh, I am completely independent. Why shall I go on the foot path?” 

John Mize: When the soul was in the spiritual sky, it also had a mind and an intelligence like here? 

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Yes. Unless he has got mind, how he misuses intelligence? 

John Mize: But he misused that intelligence in his freedom, his independence. 

Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes. Mind is there also. That is spiritual mind. Everything is spiritual. There is nothing material. Body spiritual, mind spiritual, intelligence spiritual, he is spiritual, the land spiritual, water spiritual—everything is spiritual. That is spiritual world. Here in the material world, except the spirit soul, everything is material. 

And he is encumbered with this material atmosphere by twenty-seven stratas, layers. The five elements, gross elements, then ten senses, and then three guṇas… In this way there are twenty-seven layers. He is trapped within, and he has to be taken out. That is called liberation. Just like if you are covered with twenty-seven layers of dirty things, so it is very difficult position. 

But there is process to clear the garbage and take the soul out. That is Kṛṣṇa conscious movement, to take the soul out of the covering of twenty-seven layers of material atmosphere. That śloka is naṣṭa-prāyeṣu abhadreṣu: “almost cleansed.” Abhadra, abhadra means dirty things. So this clearing process going on. When it is almost cleansed the man feels, "Oh good." 

And that process: nityaṁ bhāgavata-sevayā [SB 1.2.18], constantly being engaged in the service of Bhāgavata, grantha-Bhāgavata and the person Bhāgavata. Then it will be cleansed. And then, when he comes out, that is brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā [Bg. 18.54], “Oh, I am now free.” Na śocati na…, no more lamentation, no more greediness. Everything finished. 

Then he begins his real business as part and parcel of God. That is perfection. 

Bahulāśva: Prabhupāda, in the Thirteenth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, “Nature, Enjoyer, and Consciousness,” in verse number six and seven you mention those twenty-seven coverings: “The five great elements, false ego, intelligence, the unmanifest, the ten senses, the mind, the five sense objects, desire, hate, happiness, and distress, the aggregate, the life symptoms and convictions—all these are considered, in summary, to be the field of activities and their interaction.” And… 

Prabhupāda: By the material life, these are our field of activities. The body is a combination of all these things. Just like a huge computer machine. It is made of these material things, but the mechanical parts are very minute, different. All these are matter. But within this matter, because the soul is there, therefore the finest machine is working. Just like your composition machine, (imitates machine:) “Kut, kut, kut, kut, kut, kut.” 

But one has to push the button; otherwise useless. However very nicely made the machine, without a living being’s touch, it is useless. So all this big machine, body, is wonderful so long the soul is there. And as soon as the soul is out it is lump of matter, useless, not worth a penny. Throw it away. So we are giving importance to the machine, not to the person who is dealing with the machine. 

This is the folly of modern civilization. We are thinking like child, “The machine is working independently.” But that is not the fact. The big airship, 747, is flying because the pilot is there, and the pilot is a soul, covered by another bodily machine. And that, that is missing point in the modern civilization, that who is working with the machine. That they do not know. That is ignorance. It is said—you see Bhagavad-gītā,

īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe ‘rjuna tiṣṭhati bhrāmayan sarva-bhūtāniyantrārūḍhāni māyayā [Bg. 18.61]

Yantra means machine. So the modern education is missing the pilot. They are simply wandering with the machine. (1975) Madhya 8.66 purport…Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura in his Anubhāṣya commentary says that this stage-devotional service mixed with speculative knowledge-is also external and not within the jurisdiction of pure devotional service as practiced in Vaikuṇṭhaloka. 

As soon as there is some conception of materialistic thought-be it positive or negative-the service is not spiritual. It may be free from material contamination, but because there is mental speculation the devotional service is not pure and freed from the contamination of material life. A living entity who wants to be completely pure must be above this material conception. 

The negation of material existence does not necessarily mean spiritual existence. After material existence is negated, spiritual existence-namely sac-cid-ānanda-still may not be manifest. Until one comes to the stage of actually understanding one’s eternal relationship with the Supreme Lord, he cannot enter into spiritual life. Spiritual life means becoming detached from material life and engaging in the loving service of the Lord. 

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore asked Rāmānanda Rāya to explain something transcendental to devotional service mixed with speculative knowledge. A pure devotee is completely surrendered to the lotus feet of the Lord, and only by his love does he conquer Kṛṣṇa, who cannot be conquered by anyone. Kṛṣṇa always stands victorious over everything. No one can conquer Him. One can attain the stage of pure devotion simply by fully surrendering. 

This is next corroborated by Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.14.3), wherein Lord Brahmā, defeated by the potency of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, fully surrendered unto the Lord. SB 3.29.8 purport: To act under the direction of a bona fide spiritual master with a motive to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead is pure devotional service. But if one has a motive for personal sense gratification, his devotional service is manifested differently. Such a man may be violent, proud, envious and angry, and his interests are separate from the Lord’s. 

One who approaches the Supreme Lord to render devotional service, but who is proud of his personality, envious of others or vengeful, is in the mode of anger. He thinks that he is the best devotee. Devotional service executed in this way is not pure; it is mixed and is of the lowest grade, tāmasaḥ. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura advises that a Vaiṣṇava who is not of good character should be avoided. 

A Vaiṣṇava is one who has taken the Supreme Personality of Godhead as the ultimate goal of life, but if one is not pure and still has motives, then he is not a Vaiṣṇava of the first order of good character. One may offer his respects to such a Vaiṣṇava because he has accepted the Supreme Lord as the ultimate goal of life, but one should not keep company with a Vaiṣṇava who is in the mode of ignorance.
