RE: Fellow Subal Sakha Das (“Bhaktivedanta Vana Maharaj,” “Bhakti Chakor”) 09 25 25

OPEN LETTER TO Subal Sakha Das (BHAKTIVEDANTA VANA / Vana Madhuryam) AND TO THE GAUDIYA COMMUNITY IN GENERAL

PADA: One of the followers of this crowd from Hawaii named Markandeya Rishi Dasa told me that Gaura Govinda Maharaja was doing a good job supporting the GBC's gurus, because "he has to stay in ISKCON." 

And -- "what do you expect from a bunch of stoned out acid heads"? What I expect is -- that a senior Indian born swami like GGM will be telling us to STOP the worship of stoned out lusty acid heads as Krishna's successor acharyas. 

I expect Gaura Govinda Maharaja to lead us away from worshiping homosexuals and pedophiles as acharyas, instead of being their group's position paper writer, apologist, hand maiden, enabler and co-sponsor of their whacky GBC resolutions. Anyway it looks like there are problems in their system. Ooops, like ISKCON, i.e. not containing abusive people. 

Markandeya told me that all we have to do it chant Nitai and it will all be fine. Ummm, we cannot have deviants posing as acharyas, and supporters of abusers posing as acharyas, and have stoned out acid heads being worshiped as good as God etc., and have a connection to Nitai.

Fellow Subal Sakha Das (“Bhaktivedanta Vana Maharaj,” “Bhakti Chakor”):

I hope this letter finds you in good health and good spirits, especially so that you may listen and understand what I must communicate to you publicly before the community, to whom it may concern, as a sign of respect and good faith.
My name is Janardan, but the name you gave me back in the distant decade of 2011 was “Jayadeva Das.” 

Since then, I was your disciple for more than 13 years.

I opened the doors of my home to you. You ate my food. You met my friends and lived alongside my wife and children. Every year you sat as the member we believed was the most important in our community. You directly benefited from my money and that of other Chileans (money that, in the end, we do not regret spending because those were years full of human learning and sharing with our friends); yet we never saw a single cent from you or your people. 

Although our community is composed of workers and generally poor people, we were always the ones tirelessly financing all the activities out of our own pockets. This proves the powerful spirit of our Chilean people, always ready to carry forward a cause they believe to be just. Therefore, I have every right to address you publicly, and considering that we never had any real response from you, I have even more right to do so.

Subal, I remind you that my wife, my friends, and I always stood up for you and for our community. But when the time came for you to stand up for us and protect your own community, of which you claim to be the spiritual sustainer, did you? Did you also stand up for us and confront the abusers, the corrupt ones, the exploiters, and the filthy malicious ones?

No. You did not.

Rather, you did quite the opposite. Do you remember that in 2020, when I presented to you several reports of abuse, you asked me to remain silent? That I should look the other way and carry on with activities as if nothing were happening?

But thank God our small community was able to stay united and continue against adversity and suffering. Do you know why? Because my wife (ex–Chaitanya Priya) and I always stood up for them (the victims), and for us, for our people. Good and humble people who, as you sadly demonstrated once again, always have to endure the abuses of those who think themselves superior, whose voices are always silenced, and whose spirits are crushed by the corrupt, fearful that we may unite and raise our powerful voice.

I began this short letter calling you “fellow,” because in the end, isn’t that what we are supposed to be? Fellows who accompany and care for one another in the sankirtan movement of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, whose rebellious and transformative spirit was once able in the Middle Ages to gather thousands of people with the roaring chants of “Hari! Hari! Haribol!” and fiercely bring down the palace of the Muslim governor Chand Kazi, the abuser who precisely sought to silence the voices of the devotees by smashing their drums and threatening them simply because his petty political power felt threatened by Chaitanya and his dignified people.

Isn’t this the very spirit and the original message of Chaitanya, as can still be witnessed in the ancient Bengali scripture Chaitanya Bhagavat?

Was it not Chaitanya himself who spread among his people a fiery message of emancipation, freedom, community, and revolution against the corrupt religious leaders and their sects of torment and spiritual slavery?

Was it not Chaitanya himself who personally empowered all people, without any distinction, to raise their voices in the cry of “Hari bol!” and unite against injustice?

So what on earth are you doing, my friend Subal?

Why do you make people believe that in order to be saved they must submit to you and to a band of corrupt abusers whose only purpose is to enslave people and strip them of the most valuable thing they have remaining — their humanity?

Through this letter, I respectfully call upon you, and also upon others who may be in your same situation:

Please, realize everything I am telling you and get out of the hell in which you are burning, and burning along with you those who listen to you. Please, immediately abandon your corrupt position of prestige and power, for it is a poison that may lead you to commit unforgivable crimes. Please, my friend (and I call you friend with all the knowledge I have of you), you still have time.

Repent and ask forgiveness from your followers and the community at large, and renounce your position as guru to become one more among us — friends from all over the world united by faith in God / Krishna, mutual respect, truth, and human dignity.

Personally, I believe that despite all the serious mistakes and serious actions you have done, directly and indirectly, you have not yet committed anything that is unforgivable. So please repent, ask forgiveness, and correct your behavior, stop falsifying the position of guru, and I am sure the entire community will forgive you and thank you forever for such a display of practical courage in the authentic message of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

I hope one day you may return to Santiago de Chile, this time with money from your own pocket, and ask forgiveness personally from all the people who believed in you and whom you tried to destroy because of the poison you swallowed without thinking: my family, my friends, the entire community of devotees and their families, and finally me, who being your first disciple in Chile started all this on this side of the world, betting everything on the real message of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu which today shines brighter than ever.

We are both human, you and I. But do you know what the difference is between you and me? That I can stand with dignity and full peace before the people who believed in me and who still believe in me, for the simple reason that I asked them for forgiveness personally and openly for all my mistakes. I am not afraid, because my conscience is clear, my family and friends are with me, and I am able to look them in the eyes every day because I love them and they know I have fought and will continue to fight for them against the spiritual corruption that rules us today.

Do that, and I will forgive you, and even if we do not become friends again, at least you will be able to return to Santiago de Chile with dignity, sharing with the humble and great-hearted people who once also believed in you, opening to you the doors of their souls and whose faith you mercilessly damaged, but which fortunately you still have time to amend.

It is solely in your hands, because what was in ours we have already done.
Hoping you can hear the Lord’s call in your heart,

Sincerely,

Janardan (ex–Jayadeva Das)
Santiago de Chile

AMD: In July 2020, we issued an official statement as a temple addressing a serious complaint — in a private group at the time—. Today we show it publicly for the first time to prove that Bhaktivedanta Vana NEVER did anything help to this kind of abomination and worse things, but quite the opposite: he asked us to silence the abuses, facilitating their deliberately cover-up.

Today the time came to make public this statement that at the time was private to show the community that our Temple always remained dignified, firm in its resolution to protect the devotees and devotees, and that we were systematically silenced by the Guru himself, who all the years and with his actions in the real world he always proved that human dignity cares little and nothing to him and his minions scattered around the world, while humble and decent people silently suffered the atrocities of this abusive bloodsuckers troop.

Finally the Temple ended up dissolving unanimously of all its active components and more than 20 people throughout Chile abandoned BV Vana on their own to determine how all their spiritual speech are pure lies to continue attracting followers, continue covering up abuses and even reports of se*ual attacks, and continue parasitizing decent people who do work and want authentic spirituality without lies or nastiness.

At the extinct Sri Narayan Goswami Gaudiya Math Temple Chile we NEVER tolerated any grossness and therefore decided to finish an intense preaching work that lasted more than 10 years. To date, none of the abusers have apologized and continue to freely ridicule everything and everyone.
