Rādhā Kṛpā Kaṭākṣa Stotram
TRANSLATION
O goddess worshiped by the kings of sages, O goddess who remove the sufferings of the three worlds, O goddess whose face is a blossoming lotus, O goddess who enjoy pastimes in the forest, O daughter of Vṛṣabhānu, O companion of Vraja's prince, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess staying in a vine-cottage by an aśoka tree, O goddess whose delicate feet are as splendid as red blossoms, O goddess whose hand grants fearlessness, O abode of transcendental opulences, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess who, playfully shooting the arrows of Your glances from the curved bows of Your auspicious, amorous eyebrows, have completely subdued Nanda's son [Kṛṣṇa], when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess whose form is as splendid as campaka flowers, gold, and lightning, O goddess whose face eclipses millions of autumn moons, O goddess whose eyes are wonderful, restless young cakora birds, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O young girl intoxicated with passion, O goddess decorated with cheerful jealous anger, O goddess who passionately love Your beloved Kṛṣṇa, O goddess learned in playful arts, O goddess expert at enjoying amorous pastimes in the kingdom of the peerlessly opulent forest groves of Vṛndāvana, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess decorated with a pearl necklace of bold amorous hints, O goddess as fair as gold, O goddess whose breasts are great golden waterpots, O ocean of happiness filled with the scented powders of gentle smiles, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess whose arms are lotus stalks dancing on the waves, O goddess whose dark eyes are dancing vines, O playful, beautiful, charming goddess, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess who wear a golden necklace on the three-lined conchshell of Your neck, O goddess splendid with three jasmine garlands and three jeweled necklaces, O goddess whose moving locks of dark hair are decorated with bunches of flowers, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess who wear a sash of flowers on Your curved hips, O goddess charming with a sash of tinkling jeweled bells, O goddess whose beautiful thighs punish the regal elephant's trunk, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess whose anklets' tinkling is more beautiful than the sounds of many mantras and the cooing of many regal swans, O goddess whose graceful motions mock the moving golden vines, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O goddess worshiped by Brahmā, O goddess to whom countless millions of Vaiṣṇavas bow down, O goddess who give blessings to Pārvatī, Śacī, and Sarasvatī, O goddess whose toenails are anointed with limitless opulences and mystic perfections, when will You cast Your merciful sidelong glance upon me?
O queen of Vedic sacrifices, O queen of pious activities, O queen of the material world, O queen of the demigods, O queen of Vedic scholarship, O queen of knowledge, O queen of the goddesses of fortune, O queen of patience, O queen of Vṛndāvana, the forest of happiness, O queen of Vraja, O empress of Vraja, O Śrī Rādhikā, obeisances to You!
Upon hearing this most astonishing prayer of mine being recited by a devotee, may Śrī Vṛṣabhānu-nandinī constantly make him the object of Her most merciful sidelong glance. At that time all his karmic reactions — whether mature, fructifying, or lying in seed — will be completely destroyed, and then he will gain entrance into the assembly of Nandanandana's eternal loving associates.
If a sādhaka with purified intelligence recites this stava with a fixed mind on the lunar days known as the full-moon day, the bright aṣṭamī, the daśamī, the ekādaśī, and the trayodaśī, then each and every one of his desires will be fulfilled, one by one. And by the merciful sidelong glance of Śrī Rādhā he will obtain devotional service that has the special symptom of being imbued with pure, ecstatic love of God (prema).

WHY WERE ALL OF SRILA PRABHPHUPADA's IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS HIDDEN AND SUPPRESSED?
PADA: The May tape, the letters, the July 9th letter, the will, the DOM and all sorts of other items were hidden by the GBC. Sulochana had to bribe an archives devotee to get the May tape and the letters, but that was in 1985. Sulochana was the fist person to make a transcript. And a GBC guru said to him, you will be "dead meat on a hook" if you continue to distribute these items. And then the Lokanath program's GBC enforcers came here to take him out. And he was taken out for exposing the May tape, the mass child mistreatment etc. I would have been taken out but the FEDS saved me. So yeah, the GBC hid the May tape and we all know why, it says future initiations will be made by ritviks. But the fact they have to eliminate people who distributed the May tape shows us what kind of suppression was going on. I also had to get "the will" from Hansadutta's safe, we did not have it. So yes, these documents were not being circulated and the reason they had us hunted for elimination is, we were publishing them and they wanted these documents to remain hidden. But I would like to thank AVmdas personally for justifying my going to the courts, media and law enforcement and exposing the GBC over and over in TV shows, books, Time Magazine, New York Times, Rolling Stone Magazine, Monkey on a Stick books and movies, news articles etc. He explained that Lokanath and his compadres are not responsible for the welfare of the children in their program, and that is why we had to expose the mass child mistreatment using the courts, media and law enforcement to protect me from the Lokanath mass child mistreatment program. Of course Lokanath also has had his hands in a little girl's cookie jar, no wonder he does not want to expose his predator mates.
They are also not responsible for making samadhis of predators, so we had to expose that too. That means they are agreeing de facto, we have had no other option other than to sue them, expose them in mass media, and seek shelter of the FEDS. Lokanath was not even going to protect children, why would he protect me? But yeah finding and publishing these documents is a peril to one's life, as we are personal eye witness. And that is why the FEDS wanted to move me to Kansas and give me a new name and hide me from ISKCON's leaders. Same thing with the November tapes, we did not have them. I got them in 1997. When I said I was going to publish them, my friends said -- don't do it -- or you will be in the morgue in 24 hours. So the GBC folks answered their own question, why these documents were not known? They were hidden, and anyone finding them and publishing them was being eliminated, to send a message, do not publish these Srila Prabhupada statments documents -- or else! Srila Prabhupada said there is a sinister movement within my movement, no wonder they did not want these letters exposed. Sulochana told me he has to go to Los Angeles because if we are together in Berkeley, they will take both of us out, one of us needs to survive to tell the story. He was right, they did send three enforcers here right after they took out Sulochana to take me out, but a gurukuli girl called the FEDS and saved me from being eliminated. Why were these documents suppressed? We all know why, they want to suppress Srila Prabhupada, not just us, ys pd

POISON ISSUE
They are whispering about intentional p*isoning him. It is all on tape. The whispers have been authenticated by three separate professional audio forensic labs. The Gainesville FBI said if this crime had taken place in the USA, they would have made it a felony crime and charged the culprits. They believe the evidence points to a homicide. The FBI are convinced by the evidence. Srila Prabhupada says I need to get out of this room because Ravana will k*ll me here. Etc. He says someone is giving me p*ison, and someone is, and that someone is the Ravana party. Sorry, there is a lot of info you are ignoring here. But the Truth Labs in India are professional forensic folks and they made a package of all the evidence and they said, this is a homicide. I trust the professionals and not the armchair side experts. Of course I also said there is mass child mistreatment going on in 1979, no one believed me, because the devotees as a group have little discrimination on what is a crime and what is not. I cannot trust their judgement. The Bengali man who transcribed the tape for me said, this is a homicide, that was his interpretation of the tape and so it is for a number of other native speakers. A Brijabasi friend of Srila Prabhupada also told me this is a homicide when I played the tape to him. He was a personal friend of Srila Prabhupada and he was crying. The devotees for the most part never cry, they want to defend their friends, just like they defended their friends on the mass child mistreatment. ys pd

Patita Pavana Das
COMMENT FROM MOTHER Govinda Dasi
Patita Pavana Das A very good point. Srila Prabhupada no longer trusted those around him. Later I heard about the statements from some Ramanandi sadhus who came to visit him near his departure time. They described that Srila Prabhupada was weeping, and that in Hindi he was saying, “I have failed in my mission. They dont listen to me anymore, your guru is fortunate that he has not had his mission taken over by foreigners!”

The Ramanandi sadhus said he was like trapped king being carted around by his captors. And he no longer wished to be a part of their circus. In times past, Kings kept a vial of poison in a ring on their fingers for such situations.
So it is not that someone poisoned Srila Prabhupada—yes, they did. But it was his choice to leave. He was heartbroken and disgusted. The Ramanandis reassured him, “No no, Srila Prabhupada, you have not failed in your mission. You should not weep, please go in peace.” This is a more valid perspective.
Even Prabhupada often said his Guru Maharaj was disgusted and left earlier than planned. So many statements are there like that. And he was heartbroken that he called his disciples to come to Vrindaban, but the leaders ordered everyone not to come. But my husband at the time, Gupta prabhu, went in October anyway. He told me it was like a horror story.
Such great souls have connections in very high places….they come from the spiritual world. And Srila Prabhupada came from the spiritual world “to establish some forms of worship for subhuman species” as one astrologer described. We are the subhumans

GOVINDA DASI WRITES
JADURANI BEATEN UP INCIDENTS
The essence of this is indeed true. And I also am a witness to much of this since I was in Los Angeles at that time. Jadurani could immediately see through the fraudulent “acharyas” and indeed she did convince Rameshvar to remove his throne from the temple room. She was sincerely trying to rescue the mission.
Then she planned to fly to New Vrindaban to speak to the rest of the so called instant acharyas. I went to her room, sat on her trunk, and begged her, “Jadurani, please dont do this. You cant stop it. This is like a disease that has to run its course.” I knew it would be dangerous. But she didnt listen. She went anyway and was almost murdered there.

Only because some devotees came along, hearing her screams was she saved.
Then, of course, the agents of Kali took full control of Srila Prabhupada’s mission and destroyed it. This is the real history. Let me say this is not a new story. It has happened before.
Then, of course, the agents of Kali took full control of Srila Prabhupada’s mission and destroyed it. This is the real history. Let me say this is not a new story. It has happened before.
Let us look at the history of Christian teachings, and what happened in that time period. Actually Srila Prabhupada often spoke very highly of Jesus Christ, and in many ratha yatra talks he mentioned that Jesus indeed did study in India. That has also been proven by scholars and historians, that Jesus traveled to India during the years from age 12 to 30, then he returned to do his ministry. And was crucified.
In fact, from the Dead Sea Scrolls and other early artifacts it has been proven that the early teachings of Jesus were in fact very similar to the authentic Vedic teachings. Jesus is also mentioned in the Bhavishya Purana when he took shelter in Kashmir, Northern India.
This information was indeed suppressed by the church institution for many years, and even the Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in 1945 were not welcome well into the 1990s. The church institutions did not want this information known. Especially the Catholic church opposed the release of such information.
But quite amazingly Srila Prabhupada was always quite aware of the authenticity of Jesus and his travels in India, and even made comments like, Your Jesus Christ was very much fond of Lord Jagannatha so He has come to your country.” (Check the rathayatra lectures for more on this)
But Christianity’s authentic teachings were derailed early on by Paul, a Jewish / Roman government agent who rewrote the teachings of Christ, and misled the disciples in various ways. This is even called “Paulism” by scholars. Much has also been written about this. Governments do not take kindly to radical religious movements.
Now in a very similar way, our original teachings given by Srila Prabhupada have been rewritten completely—shortly after Srila Prabhpada left this world—without the knowledge of his many disciples. Then these bowdlerized teachings were printed into books and Prabhupada’s name was placed on them, as if he had written them himself.
These rewritten books DO NOT even sound like the original teachings of Srila Prabhupada, but the BBTii —the illegal corporation that consumed the BBT trust created by Prabhupada in 1972—has created elaborate propaganda and deception. By this they have misled thousands of people to believe these are actually Srila Prabhupada’s teachings.
Meantime the corporate directors of BBTii feast off the proceeds of the cashcow of Prabhupada’s books, and use the free labor of innocent youths to distribute them. It is a sad situation. Srila Prabhupada never taught karmakanda, yet you may wonder where all the “self-help gurus” have come from. These bastardized books do NOT teach pure Krishna bhakti, rather they teach diluted impersonal and cheap yogic techniques for rising by one’s own efforts. Pure Krishna bhakti teaches surrender to Krishna—not self-help methods.
As I said, governments do not take kindly to religious missions, especially those that draw in thousands of youth away from the plans of their affluent parents.
So very obviously the Iskcon mission was infiltrated by agents in the 70s and immediately after Srila Prabhupada’s very untimely demise, a few of these agents went to work very quickly to destroy the mission and rewrite the teachings.

The eleven grand “acharyas”destroyed the faith of thousands, and meantime the books were quietly rewritten behind closed doors. Then in 1983 they were presented to the world, and every effort has been made since then to destroy all evidence of the original and authentic teachings of Srila Prabhupada, the true Vedic teachings.
Yes. Courtcases, lawsuits, harrassment is only one part of it. They do not want these teachings to survive. Due to the youthful naivete of the devotees at that time, these agents were successful in this, much to the misfortune of the world—that is now being cheated by these fake books that are distributed all over the world.
Srila Prabhupada’s mission was derailed. And now the illegal corporation called BBTii has deceived thousands of young spiritual aspirants into believing these fake books are Srila Prabhupada’s authentic teachings.
This is a very profitable business, with the free labor of innocent book distributors. The BBTii profits are in the millions. It is easy to find the BBTii corporation tax reports and the many sub-corporations in Australia where the money is being channeled. But few devotees know this. Do your own research.
At this time in history, it would be wise to have the complete teachings on numerous servers and in numerous other safe places where they can be found later on. This is a repeat of the history of Christianity—-because as I said, governments, esp those run by demons, DO NOT like radical religious movements. It is up to US to protect these teachings for the future.
Please, everyone do your part.

What do you expect from the 11 naked emperors? Many of the earlier generations of devotees who did not agree with the 11 naked emperors and the GBC which is corrupted even in the 70s left and either joined the Narayan camp or Gaudiya Maths or became atheist. My parents did not leave or join other groups but they did received guidance from Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Maharaja after Srila Prabhupada "divine departure" / "disappearance" and said that what entered the movement was horrible.

AFD: Yes, he was poisoned. But Sridhar thought the poisoners are pure devotee gurus, he is just as clueless as the GBC sheeple. He is just one of them.
