Creepalachia / PADA vs Gurukuli Holocaust / BBTI Director list 04 21 26

CREEPALACHIA VIDEO ON NEW VRNDAVAN

PADA: Yeah a lot of devotees have had no idea what has been the long term public image / historically recorded result / lasting effect / of promoting homosexuals and pedophiles as gurus cults. A program which incidently has a track record of banning, beating suing and killing dissenters. And making pedos into messiahs! 

So many devotees have told me: go away; you are not our authority; stay out of ISKCON's affairs; shut up; do not criticize; be humble and tolerant; it is your karma prabhu; you are an offender; you are criticizing seniors and pure devotees etc.  And they thus helped the regime by suppressing dissent. And as a bonus, have us dissenters made into targets for violence, assassinations and untimely deaths etc. 

And they made all sorts of rationalizing and justification types of arguments, to allow, enable and defend all this deviated process to continue. Well now what? The average Joe citizen from Apalachia is looking at all this and wondering, WTF is going on with these whacked Hare Krishnas? 

And that is why it is said, history it like looking at pottery in the pottery shop. You break it, you own it. I am glad at least some of us said, "wait, do not break all the pottery," and a small fragment of ISKCON or a few pieces were saved thereby. But yeah, the people who caused this -- and enabled it -- are part of the karma of making this result. They own it, or at least part of it.

PADA: GURUKULIS HOLOCAUST

PADA: The whole system of India Bureau program folks -- like Basu Ghosh, Bhakti Vikas swami, Radhanath etc. has all along been big -- if not lifetime -- supporters of their predator gurus like Jokernath. And along with that -- supporting all the associated side programs like burying predators, porno swamis and similar others dubious folks in samadhis and etc. And propping up Mayapur's worse case child welfare fraud leaders like Jayapataka etc. 

And doubling down on re-supporting and re-propping up guys like Bhakti Vidya Purna swami, just at the same exact time I am having them sued for $400,000,000. These are essentially the same sabha folks that were trying to silence us, and shut us down for objecting to Kirtanananda -- when we reported Kirtanananda was "servicing" boys in his motorhome. 

Evidently, their program to have me hunted to be placed into the morgue untimely was all "my bad karma." Yep, everyone who is in favor of their program has good karma, everyone else's karma is bad, especially victims or us whistle blowers. And that justifies any and all of their process. There may be some gray area nuances here and there, but to me, it looks like "the enforced cult ritualistic worship of predators as messiahs project," emphasis on enforced. Same as it always was since we began protesting in 1978. 

As soon as I peeped up, the iron boots came down on my head, and have ever since. And that is why my gurukuli friend said to me recently, out of 500 kids at the 1997 festival, 145 are deceased, at least, maybe more. In other words, the entire GBC strategy the whole time has been, run out the clock, and spend $100,00,000 on legal fees to help keep the clock from timing them out. Sulochana called this "a smash and grab robbery." And he said after that, they will run, hide, evade, obfuscate, use lawyers, and using every trick in the book -- legal and not so legal -- to avoid being exposed. And they have. ys pd

PADA My gurukili friend said that out of all the 500 children at the Los Angeles meeting in 1997, 145 of those gurukulis are now deceased. It is probably more than that, maybe way more, because he has no means of record keeping. And a few of those currently surviving are hanging on by a thread with trauma and opiod problems etc. He told me, the GBC knows all about this and does keep track of them. They know very well they created this holocaust for these kids. 

And they are keeping it hidden because it will harm their Hindu money making scam. They want the meat eating Hindus to take over ISKCON, and they want these kids excluded from ISKCON, because if they include these kids, they will have to answer why these kids have been treated so badly on their control and watch. 

He said, the word comes from the Greek holokauston, meaning “a thing wholly burned”, originally referring to a burnt sacrificial offering. And that is what happened, these kids had to be offered up and sacrificed, so the GBC could make a Hindu money making retirement scheme for themselves. He said there is a good reason "no one knows what is happening to these kids," the GBC is covering it up just like they cover everything else up. ys pd

YEP! The gurukuli Holocaust. Some gurukulis told me this was Auschwitz for kids. Prithu's son made a movie "Burnt Laddus" about the children being like burnt milk sweets (Satanic child sacrifice offerings)? 

And how did you guess, the main people [apart from GBC folks] who opposed PADA in helping these children from being in Auschwitz were -- the Hitler-anugas: Mukunda UK, Prahlad das and Mathura Pati / Prabhupadanugas EU, and their India holocaust lover's branch Dayalu Nitai's HKC Jaipur. They even made a video using Radhanath's cheer leader as their defense team mate. Yep, oral sex with boys in the motorhome-pada's program is being offended by PADA!   

And we had to almost complain to the government that these guys are connected to the Racial Supremacist Nazi type programs. Who better to defend Auschwitz and the holocaust of children program, than the Nazi lover's club? OK unfortunately also IRM's Krishna Kant Desai helped these guys, and they all were upset PADA was inteferring with their lovely Auschwitz / Holocaust for kids program. Wow, kids are being treated brutally, and dying, and they are against saving them. Now you know how all this Satanic child sacrifice happens, it is enabled and empowered. Told ya! ys pd

BBTI IMBROGLIO

Just found the following 2 documents in the files folder on my mobile phone. Have never seen these before, but thought worth sharing...

~•~•~•~

● SPIRITUAL NAMES OF BBTI DIRECTORS ●

Confirmed identifications

Emil Beca → Svavasa Das A legal filing directly identifies Emil Beca as "Svavasa das" in parentheses alongside his legal name. Wordpress Svavasa is a Sanskrit name meaning "self-luminous" or "dwelling in oneself." He is one of the most central figures — Svavasa Dasa was named as one of the four post-settlement trustees of the BBT, meaning he simultaneously held roles in both the BBT trust and the BBTI corporation.

Norman D'Costa → Naresvara Das A legal document directly identifies Naresvara (Norman D'Costa) by both names, confirming he is the BBTI director also known in the devotee community as Naresvara das. Wordpress Naresvara means "Lord of men," another name for Vishnu/Krishna.

Jay Matsya → Matsya Avatara Das / Jayadvaita Swami connection. "Jay Matsya" on the 990 filings appears to be Matsya Avatara Das, a devotee name meaning "servant of the Fish Incarnation of Vishnu." Matsya Avatara Dasa is mentioned in a BBT publishing context as being from Gopiparanadhana Prabhu's Sanskrit school in Govardhana, connected to BBT editorial work.

Separately, Jay Israel (a different person) is the civil name of Jayadvaita Swami, who was a major but now former director. Jay Israel received initiation from Srila Prabhupada in 1968, was given the spiritual name Jayadvaita Dasa, and later took sannyasa in 1978. He served as a BBT director from 1988 until resigning in 2017. Wikipedia

Massimo Brioli → Madhusevita Das -- The Italian director Massimo Brioli is known in the devotee community as Madhusevita Prabhu, who served as head of the Italian GBC and was connected to the Italian BBT operations. Madhusevita means "one who serves the sweet honey" — a name of Krishna.

Greg Stein → Gopal Bhatta Das / Gopal A 1999 GBC resolution refers to "Naresvara and Gopal Bhatta Prabhus" in a BBT administrative context, and the same documents identify Greg Stein as the BBTI president at that time, suggesting his devotee name was in that circle. ISKCON Governing Body Commission. However, this identification is not definitively confirmed in available sources.

Not yet publicly confirmed in available sources

The following directors' spiritual names could not be confirmed from publicly available records:

Legal Name Status

Govinda Cordua (Secretary -- "Govinda" itself appears to already be a Sanskrit / devotee name — it is a name of Krishna meaning "one who gives pleasure to the senses and cows." His surname Cordua suggests Latin American origin.

Robert Burnside (Treasurer) No spiritual name found in public records

Scott Krieger (Director) No spiritual name found in public records

Michael Auggenthaler (Director) No spiritual name found in public records

William Suczek (Director) Vaisheshika Das

Manogaran Ranggasamy (Director) No spiritual name found — name is Tamil / Malaysian

Ramchunder Singh (Director) No spiritual name found — name is already a Hindu/Sanskrit name

How to Find Remaining Spiritual Names

Since not all are publicly documented, here are your best avenues:

1. The Folio Vaishnava Reference Library — a comprehensive database used within ISKCON with devotee records including initiated names.

2. ISKCON Desire Tree devotee directory at iskcondesiretree.com — you can search by first name or location.

3. The BBT's own contact page at bbt.info — they list trustees and staff by their devotee names.

4. VNN (Vaishnava News Network) archives — historical articles often identify devotees by both civil and spiritual names.

5. GBC resolution archives at gbc.iskcon.org — resolutions consistently use devotee names, so searching the legal name alongside "BBT" in those archives is very productive.

It's worth noting that some directors — particularly those from South Asia or with already-Sanskritic names like Ramchunder Singh or Manogaran Ranggasamy — may not have Western birth names that were replaced, and may use their devotee names in a more integrated way with their original names.

~•~•~•~

Excellent — that ProPublica data from the IRS Form 990 filings is very revealing. Here is what you were missing, plus the full picture on directors:
What You Were Missing in the Comparison

1. The BBTI Is Officially Based in Florida, Not California

Despite being incorporated in California in 1988, BBTI is currently located in Alachua, Florida, and has been tax-exempt since December 1990, with EIN 95-4184400. ProPublica This is significant because ISKCON's North American hub shifted to Alachua, FL, and the BBTI followed.

2. The BBTI's Official Self-Description (vs. Critics' View)

The BBTI itself describes the situation as: "The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust (BBT) is a California religious trust that owns the copyrights to the works published by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada during his lifetime. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International (BBTI) is a California corporation that has acted as an authorized agent of the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust since 1988. The BBTI also owns the rights to some later works. The BBT and BBTI work together to protect Srila Prabhupada's rights and serve his will." Bbti

Critics strongly dispute this framing, arguing the BBT never legally authorized the BBTI to act in this capacity.

3. The "Global BBT" Layer — A Third Tier Many Miss

There has always existed a "Global BBT" trustee group made up of some of the trustees of the trusts formed by Srila Prabhupada and, after 1988, directors of BBTI. This group is described as the spiritual governing body of the BBT worldwide. This is a layer most people are unaware of — it blends the original trust structure with the post-1988 corporate structure into a de facto combined governing body.

4. The BBTI's Financial Scale (IRS Data)

From ProPublica's IRS Form 990 data, the BBTI's finances show it is a relatively modest operation:

In fiscal year 2024, BBTI reported revenue of $768,331, expenses of $760,811, total assets of $3,004,487, and net assets of $1,949,828. Notably, 94.8% of revenue came from contributions, with only small amounts from royalties ($2,000) and investment income. ProPublica

This is a key gap in the comparison — the BBTI is not the large publishing house most assume. It functions more as a copyright-holding and licensing body, with the actual publishing done by regional BBT divisions.

5. No Executive Compensation (Recent Years)

In 2024, BBTI reported zero executive compensation and zero salaries and wages paid. ProPublica All directors serve without pay. This has been the consistent pattern since at least 2021.

BBTI Directors (from IRS Form 990 Filings)

These are the current and recent directors sourced directly from official IRS filings via ProPublica:

As of fiscal year 2024 (most recent):

Name Role

Emil Beca President & Director

Govinda Cordua Secretary

Robert Burnside Treasurer

Jay Matsya Director

Manogaran Ranggasamy Director

Ramchunder Singh Director

Massimo Brioli Director

Scott Krieger Director

Michael Auggenthaler Director

William Suczek Director

Previous directors/officers also on record:

• Greg Stein (former President, 2013–2020)

• Jose Fornos / Jose M Fornos Vicens (Director, multiple years)

• Norman D'Costa (Director, multiple years)

A notable pattern: Several core figures — Emil Beca, Michael Auggenthaler, William Suczek, Govinda Cordua, Robert Burnside, and Ramchunder Singh — have appeared continuously on filings from 2013 through 2024, suggesting a very stable and insular leadership group with little rotation. ProPublica

How to Find Director Names Yourself

For current and historical BBTI directors, you can search these free public sources:

1. ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer — projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/954184400 — Shows Form 990 filings year by year with officer names.

2. IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search — apps.irs.gov/app/eos/ — Search "Bhaktivedanta Book Trust International."

3. California Secretary of State — bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov — For the original incorporation documents and registered agents.

4. Florida Division of Corporations — search.sunbiz.org — Since BBTI is currently based in Florida.

5. Charity Navigator — charitynavigator.org — For governance and accountability ratings.

For the original BBT trust (not BBTI), there is no comparable public corporate registry because it is a private irrevocable trust — its trustee appointments were made personally by Prabhupada and are documented in the trust agreement itself, not in state corporate filings.
