IRAN / Clueless Leaders / Sruta Kirti Update 09 23 26

Krishna resides in the heart of all living entities, from the lowest infinitesimal amoebas to the greatest demigods, and He guides or allows their activities. Knowing that Krishna resides along with us as supersoul is called paramatma realization, and it is the first step to realizing one's eternal identity as Krishna's servant.

"He is not an ordinary living entity. Because the monist philosophers take the knower of the body to be one, they think that there is no difference between the Supersoul and the individual soul. To clarify this, the Lord says that He is represented as the Paramātmā in every body. He is different from the individual soul; He is para, transcendental. The individual soul enjoys the activities of a particular field, but the Supersoul is present not as finite enjoyer nor as one taking part in bodily activities, but as the witness, overseer, permitter and supreme enjoyer. His name is Paramātmā, not ātmā, and He is transcendental. It is distinctly clear that the ātmā and Paramātmā are different.
(Srimad Bhagavatam-----13:23-----purport).

The Supersoul, the Paramātmā, has legs and hands everywhere, but the individual soul does not. And because the Paramātmā is the Supreme Lord, He is present within to sanction the individual soul's desiring material enjoyment. Without the sanction of the Supreme Soul, the individual soul cannot do anything. The individual is bhukta, or the sustained, and the Lord is bhoktā, or the maintainer. There are innumerable living entities, and He is staying in them as a friend.
(Srimad Bhagavatam-----13:23-----purport).

He gives instructions as stated in Bhagavad-gītā, and from within He tries to convince the living entity that his activities in the material field are not conducive to real happiness. "Just give it up and turn your faith toward Me. Then you will be happy," He says. Thus the intelligent person who places his faith in the Paramātmā or the Supreme Personality of Godhead begins to advance toward a blissful eternal life of knowledge.
(Srimad Bhagavatam-----13:23-----purport).

Those who always try to establish the doctrine of monism are also counted among the atheists and agnostics. In other words, only the devotees of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are best situated in spiritual understanding, because they understand that beyond this material nature are the spiritual world and the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is expanded as the Paramātmā, the Supersoul in everyone, the all-pervading Godhead. Of course there are those who try to understand the Supreme Absolute Truth by cultivation of knowledge, and they can be counted in the class of the faithful.
(Srimad Bhagavatam-----13:25-----purport).

IRAN

My take on the Iran problem is that it looks like a stalemate. America has had no good luck hunting jihadis in tunnels, whether it is in Gaza, Lebanon, Afghanistan, or now Iran. Especially true since Iran has had lots of tunnels full of weapons made inside GIANT mountains for 30 years, so they are past masters at the process. 

Now we are wondering when China, the EU, Pakistan or someone else is going to go in there and take out the regime because "we do not need their oil, other people do." OK that means we cannot finish the job we started, and now we are blaming others for not fixing it. Why isn't the UK driving a ship through there? Well because it will get blown to bits, duh-oh!

When the USA says we are only going to cripple the economy of Iran to take them down, that is fake news. We are crippling supplies to probably billions of people all over the whole world and thus crippling many economies simultaneously. We are not just taking down the economy of Iran, we are spreading the pain all over. 

It is obvious that many other countries are also being taken down because we are blocking the whole situation. And now the USA has banned the media from the White House so no one can ask -- when this will be solved, because obviously there is no plan to fix it. 

So it is a little embarrassing to keep having to say "we are going to fix it within a week" when the weeks keep piling up. Now the MAGA people are back to saying they may have to annihilate the whole IRAN country. Well that won't destroy all their weapons hidden in the tunnels. And then Iran could take out all the other countries in the region, since we have a shortage of defense missiles.

Overall, it looks like we made a mistake going in there and they just cannot face it. So they whole thing remains deadlocked, despite USA saying "a big thing will happen soon," and it never does. Now we have the Houthis making more trouble and we are not even trying to combat them, because we are spread too thin. 

So yeah, it is a mess and it looks like they drove the USA car into a ditch and cannot get un-stuck. So I do not feel bad for the bellicose modern day Napoleans who wanted to be recognized as war generals, they deserve to be taught a lesson, but I do think this will impact the rank and file world's general population with a global food security problem and make it -- much worse, and a lot of people are going to suffer food and energy shortages. 

But whenever they say "we are going to take down Iran's economy," that makes no sense when they are taking down the overall world's economy itself, not just in Iran. I do not see how this ends well for the world, except to say, oil was going to run out eventually anyway, so maybe this is a head's up to start making alternate plans. ys pd angel108b@yahoo.com

PADA: It is always amazing to see how out of touch these "leading men" are in modern ISKCON. The women were (and still are?) No. 1 complaining about the mistreatment of their children in ISKCON -- including starving, beating, molesting, raping, anal reconstructive surgery epidemics etc. And then the subsequent depression, drug use and suicide epidemic among child victims. 

The leaders did not listen to these women, and that is self evident. A number of women recently started a children welfare forum on Facebook -- which is nearly 100% boycotted by the ISKCON men leaders. This poor Bhakti Raghava guy is still saying women should not have a voice in the society, nevemind it has cost ISKCON a $400M lawsuit, and the WHOLESALE MASS EXODUS loss of the women as a class, hence loss of their children. Hence the temples are EMPTY ghost towns. 

Someone said to PADA, there are more GHOSTS living at ISKCON temples than living people. So we can eliminate the voices of the women, and have a bunch of pedophile and predator friendly men running the show and IT WILL BE EMPTY. Then this guy wants to start varnasrama, based on worshiping illicit sex deviants as messiahs? No wonder the women are GONE and NOT coming back.

RE: Sruta Kirti's son Mayapur Chandra 

KKD: I spoke with my son about the incident that has scarred him for life although he doesn’t realize it as much as I do. The other boys were not beaten. My son was singled out and beat on his back until he had welts and blood. The gurukuli in the ashram the rascal (Sruta Kirti's son) Mayapur Chandra (who has been profiled on this page for accepting donations for the Radha Kund widows but has disappeared with his wife because the money which apparently was being taken by them to travel and lead a comfortable lifestyle) was the kid who started the trouble because he taken someone’s chewable vitamins, but wouldn’t admit it so my son was singled out and punished by this man. 

No doubt Mayapur would not get punished or in trouble because of who his father is and that is the well-known devotee Sruta Kirti das. I am incredulous that so many people on this post will defend the child abuser. My son is the kindest gentlest devotional person anyone could know. He has always been close to me and we have always been open to talking about things. I had never doubted his word. In fact I have spoken with the kind hearted ashram teacher who left Rupa in charge that day and he admitted it happened. 

Of course, like all the victims of child abuse my son felt guilty but especially because he was afraid of being offensive to devotees in spite of all that he went through in this life mostly because of abuse within ISKCON. We had not spoken of this until today for many years. He recalled how he thought about how he wished Rupa Manohar dead for the painful abuse but now at age 50 he’s just too tired of the world and has just let it go. 

He shrugged his shoulders and had very little reaction when I told him that Rupa had passed from this world. Found out today a disciple of Srila Prabhupada named Rupa Manohar das passed away yesterday in Maui. He was the first devotee that caused bodily pain to my son (5 years old at the time along with 4 other boys) in the small ashram at New Navadwipa Honolulu 1979. 

The boys were beaten badly with a bamboo cane as they lay upon their floor beds. Rupa Manohar was not the ashram teacher. The ashram teacher and his wife were wonderful devotees. They had left Rupa Manohar in charge so they could do some errands. When they found out what had happened they were very upset and angry. He was never allowed to be in charge of the young 5-6 years olds ever again. 

The beating was the first my small son had ever experienced. He has never forgotten and neither have I. I’m aware that we have to find it in our hearts to forgive, and my son is a good example. He says he has forgiven everyone that hurt him beat him, abused him throughout his years in gurukula. As a mother, it’s more difficult for me. 

Understanding that this person knowingly and purposely caused pain and harm to your child is a hard pill to swallow. I pray that you Rupa will have a better birth in the next life and not beat on children. 

PADA: Yeah we heard that there were a number of red flags regarding Srutakirti's son Mayapur, and basically he was not a likeable and trustworthy guy. But Srutakirti being his dad gave him a sort of celebrity status in ISKCON. Probably why Bir Krishna was enthused about making him his disciple. 

But that means people who would normally have spoken up about his exploitive nature did not, because they would be targeted as offenders and etc. I also know children of GBC and other leaders who got all sorts of perks, including sometimes paid for college educations -- while the other kids were never even trained to read and write properly. 

In case no one noticed, some of the other rank and file gurukulis writing is not very solid, and there are sometimes grammar and spelling problems because they did not get the education "perks" the elites did. I also know some of the older kids were made "classroom monitors" who could beat up the younger kids, or even molest them. This happens in prisons and happened at Auschwitz, some prisoners were made into second echelon leaders to mind the lesser prisoners. 

Yeah, some ex-kid told me that is how Yamaraja also operates hell, he has lesser minions doing all the dirty work of maintaining his hells. In other words, this GBC system of enforcer classroom monitors and special perks for the elite kids system is designed in hell. I agreed with this ex-kid.   

In any case, the granting of perks to these special elite kids did not always help long term. I know some of them who were special elites or monitors and they are suffering a lot now feeling bad about what happened to the lesser kids. In fact some of the elite kids ended up with addiction issues and all sort of other problems. 

One ex-female said her elite dad was so unpopular with the other kids, she could not make any friends. And she later on died of an overdose, complaining she was friendless. But her elite dad did not care, he just wanted to maintain his post with the other elites. He is still an elite now.

In sum they did not care about this kid either -- even when it was known she was spiraling into substance abuse. Keeping one's post in Auschwitz is more important than feeling empathy for the prisoners, even when the prisoner is your own kid evidently. So many kids are victims and almost none of this is reported. Of course that also means the parents are implicated at fault for not defending their kids, or their society.

So I am VERY glad this Mayapur guy was reported. And we should all give our utmost support to the brave victim who more or less took on the Auschwitz for kids regime, at least the child of one of the top propagandists. This person gets PADA's superior service five star award. Hopefully this will encourage more of same, and we can start to pop the boil. But when it comes to Bir Krishna's domain, he seems to have held back a lot of this with various trickery and duplicity. 

We all know Bir is a big fan of the Auscshwitz for kids program's leaders and cheer leaders. Urmila is not much of a help either. When I asked her in the 1980s to help me on this issue she wrote to me "no interest in this topic." No freaking kidding, no interest. You are however interested in hanging out with the Bir Krishna et al. fan club.  

We know who are the top Generals and managers of Auschwitz for kids, and we also know the SS rank Obersturmbannführers lieutenant colonels, and we also know who are the cheer leaders and enablers of the entire system. And we also know who are the people who told me "no interest in the topic," and which party was sending out hunters to place me in the morgue.

We just need more of the same to root this out wholesale. Unfortunately, the statute of limits might apply since many of them are older victims. But my understanding is that any victim prior to 18 in California, or prior to 16 in some states, can apply for a criminal complaint at any age. There is no age limit. 

Next, we have to criminally charge all the leaders who orchestrated and supervised this Auschwitz for kids process. Anyway, some people complained I helped ISKCON lose the $400,000,000 lawsuit by helping the case. Even if the case saved one previous victim, or saved one future person from being a future victim, $400,000,000 is a cheap price. That is almost like getting away with murder for a price. So yeah this victim coming forward will help previous victims, and prevent future ones, job well done!
