GBC Elite Gurus / Vaishnavi Fund me / Nityananda Vamsa etc. 04 15 25






RUSSIA NEWS: Money, GBC and "Spiritual Heritage".

One old devotee from Mayapur, who served in the brahmacari kitchen since the 90s, once said: "Krishna is in the heart, and the money is in the GBC safe".

The last couple of years, the ISKCON GBC has completely lost its shyness. Millions of dollars from the devotees' funds - those who donate their last thousand for prasadam - are spent not on preaching, not on Prabhupada's books, not on temples in poor countries, but on building apartments for "leaders", business class trips and endless retreats for the "elite".

Where is the reporting? Where is the transparency? Where is any adherence to the principles of the acharyas?

When Srila Prabhupada spoke about finances, he was strict: "Every rupee is for Krishna". And now - every rupee goes to "management of Krishna" in the style of corporate CEOs.

While ordinary devotees clean toilets and live on 2000 rupees a month, "gurus" and "GBC members" arrange for themselves premium resorts in Jagannath Puri or Bali and villas in Tirupati or somewhere else. All this under the guise of a "spiritual mission".

GBC ISKCON is a corporation. Gurus are directors. Discipleship is a franchise.

And if you ask questions - you are an "envious critic", you have "aparadha", and you will "fall down like a Mayavadi".

Or maybe just stop being silent?

CBD: Precise description ..... one of my cousins, a seniour captain, a former Lt.-Col at the German Luftwaffe, and now Lufthansa, was quite 'surprised' to hear that in his Airbus 350 on an intercont flight there were 3 iskcon GBC 'sannyasis' flying in ..... 1st Class.... I have the logs and names and everything. I asked him to verify ..... It is a shame ..... I will not publish the details, because a) I do not want to disturb Sri Krsna and b) Lufthansa would sue me for breach of confidentiality. ----It is really a shame .....as many foot-soldier devotees live in poverty and struggle to make a living....

TG: "Sometimes a devotee needs to step aside. Not because he has cooled off or lost interest. But because it is the only way to remain honest - to himself, to Srila Prabhupada, to the Lord.

Now that we have analyzed the essence of what is happening, it becomes obvious: the GBC system is increasingly turning into a mouthpiece for globalist structures. It is not just an administrative apparatus - it is already a conduit for someone else's philosophy, someone else's agenda.


And when a devotee realizes this, it can become difficult for him to be around. It is especially difficult to see how other devotees, and good devotees, sincere ones, fall under the influence of this delusion. How they begin to repeat someone else's rhetoric, to protect someone else's interests, thinking that this is serving Prabhupada.

It hurts. Just watching it is painful. But this is not a reason to condemn. And this does not mean that we lose faith in devotees. On the contrary, this is a temporary moment. The time will come when communication will open again, when we will be able to speak with our hearts.

But for now - silence. For now - pause.

Because this is the path of honesty. And purification."

NOD: Purity of Devotional Service

In the Middle Ages, after the disappearance of Lord Caitanya's great associate Lord Nityānanda, a class of priestly persons claimed to be the descendants of Nityānanda, calling themselves the gosvāmī caste. They further claimed that the practice and spreading of devotional service belonged only to their particular class, which was known as Nityānanda-vamsa. In this way, they exercised their artificial power for some time, until Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Thākur, the powerful ācārya of the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava sampradāya, completely smashed their idea.

There was a great hard struggle for some time, but it has turned out successfully, and it is now correctly and practically established that devotional service is not restricted to a particular class of men. Besides that, anyone who is engaged in devotional service is already on the status of being a high-class brāhmaṇa. So Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Thākur's struggle for this movement has come out successful.

It is on the basis of his position that anyone can now become a Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava, from any part of the world or any part of the universe. Anyone who is a pure Vaiṣṇava is situated transcendentally, and therefore the highest qualification in the material world, namely to be in the modes of goodness, is already achieved by such a person. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement in the Western world is based on the above-mentioned proposition of Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Prabhupāda, our spiritual master.

On his authority, we are claiming members from all sections of the Western countries. The so-called brāhmaṇas claim that one who is not born into a brāhmaṇa family cannot receive the sacred thread and cannot become a high-grade Vaiṣṇava. But we do not accept such a theory because it is not supported by Rūpa Gosvāmī nor by the strength of the various scriptures.

Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī specifically mentions herein that every man has the birthright to accept devotional service and to become Kṛṣṇa conscious. He has given many evidences from many scriptures, and he has especially quoted one passage from Padma Purāṇa, wherein the sage Vasiṣṭha tells King Dilīpa, "My dear King, everyone has the right to execute devotional service, just as he has the right to take early bath in the month of Māgh [December-January]."

Similarly, in the Eleventh Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, 5th Chapter, Karabhājana Muni addresses King Nimi and says, "My dear King, a person who has given up the worship of the demigods and has completely concentrated his energy in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead has become very, very dear to the Lord. 

As such, if by chance or mistake he does something which is forbidden, there is no need for him to perform any purificatory ceremonies. Because the Lord is situated within his heart, He takes compassion for the devotee's accidental mistake and corrects him from within." It is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā in many places that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, takes a special interest in His devotees and declares emphatically that nothing can cause His devotees to fall down. He is always protecting them.

PADA: Right. The Lord protects His sincere devotee and corrects them. OK so when the GBC gurus are falling down into illicit sex with men, women and children; taking percodans for headaches; drinking Vodka; watching porno; gambling in Reno; taking tons of psychotropics; claiming to be able to take sins like Jesus and then dying of cancer; giving up on the Krishna religion; or in the case of Vipramukhya becoming an atheist; or at age 77 trying to have an affair with a 24 year old female disciple; or dying as a long time drunk; and so on and so forth, that means: 

THEY ARE NOT BEING PROTECTED BY THE LORD.

They are offenders, and offenders are not protected. ys pd

=================

PADA: The preaching here is pretty much, they cannot find hardly any Western people to fill posts in many temples. So they started to hire Bengalis to be cooks and poojaris under a GBC arrangement made by Jayapataka, who offered his people to the temples. So then we had these four Bengalis going to the doughnut shop after mangal arotike to chat with the young waitresses. 

And one other feature was, once they got their green cards, they would often leave and get karmi jobs. We had ten of them working at the local Muslim restaurant at one point. Now we are finding that some of the ISKCON Hindu temple managers are not even veg. My friend complained to his GBC about that, and the GBC told him -- only the poojaris need to be veg, not the managers. It looks like ISKCON is morphing into a sort of professional paid brahmana organization, so they can bring in the Hindus and make the temples a sort of Hindu cultural hall. 

They even had some Bhagavat Satpa guy here from India going to various temples. I think ISKCON is morphing into a sort of Hindu business, which is why Srila Prabhupada said, if the Hindus take over my mission, it will become a business. Now we have Hindu car blessings, baby blessings, marriages and even funerals at some temples. 

Meanwhile some of the Western devotees are going around making another business -- of giving "trauma therapy" to the burnt out ISKCON refugees, which in my opinion, is simply another business. In sum, I see ISKCON going off on "mission drift" because the leaders are too weak or compromised to make things more to the actual standards. And as long as ISKCON is turning more and more into another Hindu temple type operation, Westerners are not going to come for understandable reasons. 

And now we find some of these Hindu preachers have become expert motivational speakers and all of that, which they charge money for sessions sometimes even advertising it is for business people to become more efficient, which is -- yet another business. To me all this looks like money changers in the temple which is the problem Jesus was having. ys pd

=====

PADA: I consider you as a victim, and there are many others in your situation, or much worse situations. People sometime want to surrender to the Supreme God, because that is an attractive idea. But in the material world, there are many false shelters, and many, most, or even almost all of the citizens of Kali Yuga -- get on the wrong path to the Supreme God. That is unfortunate. And thus, as Srila Prabhupada laments, the blind are leading the blind into a ditch. Then what? 

There is nothing else a person can do except, dust themselves off, get back on their feet, get back out of the ditch, and carry on trekking towards the Supreme Being. There is no plan B, C or any other option, we have to carry on trying to attain the Supreme Being, no matter what we have done or gone through up to now. So that is my hope for you, stick to the road, go forward, and focus on where you are going and not where you have been. Of course, asking forgiveness for our sins is also a good sign, it is a sign of humility and honesty. At the same time, we cannot allow ourselves to become overwhelmed by hankering and lamenting, that will slow down our progress. ys pd

Bhakti Caru / Personal Insults / Akruranath / Confession etc. 04 14 25





PADA: But Mr. PADA, Bhakti Caru was never in agreement with the GBC. He was more or less a ritvik. Ummm nope, he was one of their big promoters, cheer leaders and fund raising experts for their endless lawsuits. 

BCS says Jayapataka will be "forever glorified" -- and he will be -- as a founding father leader of: The illicit sex with men, women and children guru parampara, which bans, beats, molests, sues and kills vaishnavas. Bhakti Caru swami says "Kali has thrown everything at Jayapataka but he bravely continues on." 

Right, he bravely goes on promoting his homosexual and pedophile guru parampara without even realizing how offensive this is. And he does not even realize that all of his suffering is from promoting all these evils and he is getting bad karma. 

=====

PERSONAL INSULTS SHOULD NOT BE RETALIATED.

PADA: Yes, prabhu I agree fully. But in the case of HKC Jaipur / Prabhupadanugas EU / Mathura Pati etc. they have been promoting Radhanath's cheer leaders and the writings of Hari Sauri. Sulochana said Hari Sauri is making us targets for assassination by discrediting us. 

So they are promoting the Saint Radhanath program, and many of us believe Radhanath had a hand in Sulochana's murder. And Sulochana himself said Hari Sauri is trying to make us targets for assassination. 

So they are insulting me, or not insulting me, is not the issue. They are promoting the homosexual and pedophile messiah's club's cheer leaders, while advertising as Prabhupada followers, this is called cheating. 

Did I forget to mention, this club is also credited with poisoning a pure devotee? So we cannot agree with the people promoting the GBC's agenda while claiming to be Prabhupadanugas, they are not. We are simply informing people to beware of false Prabhupada followers, who glorify the people who helped have Sulochana murdered. If they are in bed with Sulochana's murderers, and clearly they are, then they are in the wrong bed. That's all, has nothing to do with me personally being insulted or not. 

Same thing with Purujit's BLISS boys. They wrote me all sorts of personal insults, calling me an old fart and all that. Fine. I have no issue with that. Does that give them a license to re-edit Srila Prabhupada's writings and books, and pal around with the false Prabhupadanugas who are promoting the GBC's agenda defender folks? Nope. 

ys pd   

=====

AKRURANATH DAS

J DASI: Not true! Akruranatha never took part in the Turley case (the one with the kids). He did defend the BBT to be the owners of the copyrights of Srila Prabhupada’s books against Hansadhutta. Did you want Hansadhutta to take over the copyrights of Srila Prabhupada’s books?

PADA: Akruranath works all the time with the people who were sued in the Windle Turley case and he supports those leaders. He is with the program that promotes the living and / or departed pedophiles guru sampradaya. 

Do I want to have 5,000 changes made to the Bhagavad Gita, or do I want the original? Well I prefer the original, and moreover Srila Prabhupada said the original should be printed. And no, I do not think Srila Prabhupada is their writer for hire. Hansadutta does not have his own Gita, he had the original made by Srila Prabhupada and Hansadutta said that is the correct version. 

Akruranatha Das: ISKCON's GBC has reviewed the much-debated argument concerning guru succession for many years and has repeatedly declared it to be a heresy, not supported by scriptures, prior acaryas, or Srila Prabhupada's books and lectures, which always emphasized the traditional "parampara" system in which successive generations of disciples become gurus for the next generation in an unbroken chain (see, e.g., Bhagavad-gita 4.1-3) 

Yep, there you have it, drunks, predators, persons dating minors, people offering LSD to the shalagram, deviants, porno swamis, homosexuals, pedophiles, criminals, and the enablers of industrial scale child mistreatment are "gurus in the tradition of Krishna's guru successors." 

Told ya! ys pd

Confession of a former temple president (anonymous).

Seven years is not just a period of time. It is almost my entire adult life. I dedicated myself to serving ISKCON. Not for profit. Not for the sake of position. But because I believed. I believed in the mission, in purity, in the instructions of Srila Prabhupada.

Every morning began with mangala-arati. The days were spent preaching and collecting donations. I did everything with joy, with the conviction that everything collected goes for the benefit of the devotees, for the development of the temples, for the spread of the holy name.

But one day I had to prepare an internal financial report. I was given access to the accounting data - not out of curiosity, but simply because of my job. And what I saw made me take a different look at everything I had dedicated these years to.
60% of all funds went to the maintenance of the GBC apparatus: offices, flights, salaries for assistants, "consultations" that cost as much as half a year's rent for a temple. Another 20% was spent on so-called representative needs: hotels, events, expensive gifts for "important guests." And only the remaining 20% ​​actually reached the temples themselves, the devotees, the prasadam, the repairs, the needy.

I did not lose faith in Krishna. But I lost trust in the system. It became clear to me: I cannot be part of a structure that exploits the faith of ordinary devotees for the sake of its administrative stability.

I left. Without loud statements. Without video messages. I just quietly stopped being "president." Now I am just a devotee. Without titles. Without a position. But with a clear conscience.

======

APPOINTMENT HOAX, TAKEOVER COUP

“Not one of these Zonal Acharyas, not even the discredited and retired ones, or those who've gone off, outside of ISKCON – not even Hansadutta, Ramesvara, or Bhagavan– have ever revealed what went on during those four months between the time Srila Prabhupada departed and the time they launched their Zonal Acharya system. They obviously had many meetings with one another to discuss their plans. 

By the time they announced the official position they had taken, at the Mayapur GBC meetings in March 1978, there had been plenty of get-togethers and strategy sessions. How much of a role Tamal Krishna Goswami played in all that, none of us can be sure. Only the Zonal Acharya participants themselves know the truth, and they're not talking.” (Rochan das, 2011)

Still, we have pieced together a pretty good picture of the events and key players in the guru hijacking of ISKCON 1977-78.

BTG ANNOUNCEMENT PRECEDED LATE MARCH GBC RESOLUTIONS

When Srila Prabhupada departed on Nov. 14, 1977, the Dec. BTG issue (Vol. 12, No. 12) was already at the printers and arrived at the North American temples by Dec. 1. Many North American ISKCON temples ran out of Back to Godhead magazines in early Jan. 1978. But the January 1978 issue, to be delivered Jan. 1, 1978, was very late. No one could understand why the January BTG was so late. There were eleven BTG issues every year, delivered to the USA temples like clockwork, and included a double issue (No. 3/4) for March-April when many devotees went to the Mayapur India festival. 

Instead, the first 1978 issue was another double issue, No. 1/2, for Jan.-Feb., and it arrived at the USA temples in mid-March, ten weeks overdue. This was at the start of the March 15-26 GBC meetings. What happened?

“In New Orleans we had a standing monthly BTG order of 10,000 because people always looked for the latest issue and we sold a lot of them every day on the streets. We never had much overstock because we were efficient, organized, and the devotees went out every day selling them. So when we ran out in January, the book distributors were upset and demanded more. Although I called the BBT several times, and I even spoke twice with Satsvarupa himself, there was no explanation for the delay. I remember 1978’s first issue did not arrive until end of March, during the GBC meetings in India.” (Nityananda das, 2014)

This first 1978 issue was the Srila Prabhupada Memorial issue on his passing away from this material world. It was the same 36 pages as usual, with only four short articles about Srila Prabhupada’s life and departure, so why the holdup? There was no additional preparation needed for this issue than any other issue. From Nov. 14, this BTG issue honoring Srila Prabhupada could easily have been produced and delivered by the Tennessee printers between Jan. 1-15 at the latest. Each magazine issue was started and finished within 4-6 weeks, called “lead-time.” There was no reason for this long delay. 

So BTG #1-2 was held up for well over 2 months, and arrived in temples March 18-20 or so, before the GBC decided or announced the new gurus on March 24. . It was similar to the New Zealand newspaper announcement of President Kennedy’s assassination 8 hours before it actually happened.

However, due to the normal lead-time required in publishing periodicals, the content of this BTG had already been finalized and given to the printers for layout and prep-work at least several weeks earlier, or weeks before the GBC meetings. The zonal acharyas were secretly decided upon by BTG chief editor Satsvarupa and other gurus-to-be (for sure, Tamal) maybe a month before the GBC approved and announced them by official resolution on March 24. It was indeed a conspiracy of silence.

Apparently Satsvarupa deliberately held up 1978’s first issue so that it would not announce the new gurus too much before the GBC in Mayapur did so Mar. 24, 1978. A BTG announcement made too early would have given skeptical ISKCON members, such as Yasodanandana, Gurukripa, Balavanta, and others time to organize and challenge the GBC to allow open debate and discussion on the guru succession question. Also, it would then be clear that Satsvarupa somehow knew there would be new gurus before the GBC got around to deciding the same (or that “the fix was already in”).

While the general devotees had no information about the upcoming announcement of new gurus, and while Srila Prabhupada (or any ISKCON leaders) had never announced such a thing, and while everyone was waiting for the GBC to meet and decide on future initiations, meanwhile the BTG announcement already had been sent to the printers a month before! There was a secret decision and plan by some of the eleven ritviks to assume the post of initiating guru. This plan evolved from before May 28, 1977 right up to the 1978 GBC meetings, when the GBC votes to approve new zonal acharyas were lined up in secret discussions. It was a gurujacking coup.

In Mayapur, the hundreds of devotees gathered there only learned of the new gurus when it was suddenly announced on Mar. 24 with the GBC policy paper on continuing the disciplic succession (see Vol. 6). In America, the devotees read about the new gurus in BTG a week before the GBC announcement! Satsvarupa had carefully coordinated this scheme of delayed release as a concealment of their take-over coup. It resembled how a rogue military unit will seize the Parliament and have a proclamation issued to the general public that a new government was approved by the old government, it all being lies and a hoax.

Problems at GBC ISKCON in Italy.

Reports have emerged about financial misconduct at GBC ISKCON Italy, involving Madhusevita Prabhu.

Madhusevita Prabhu is one of the devotees and leaders of GBC ISKCON, actively participating in the life and activities of the GBC ISKCON temple in Italy. He holds important administrative positions within the organization and frequently participates in events such as kirtans, lectures, and major festivals related to the movement.

Additionally, Madhusevita is considered an authority among the local devotees and plays a role in managing GBC ISKCON temples in Italy, including organizing spiritual programs, ceremonies, and maintaining connections with the local community.

The allegations concern financial manipulation and accounting.

Summary of the scandal:

1. Allegations of financial misconduct — It is claimed that Madhusevita and other senior devotees of GBC ISKCON Italy were involved in financial abuses, including:

Manipulation of accounting,

Creation of fake entities and accounts,

Concealment of income.

2. Sale of temple property — There are accusations that property was sold or used for improper purposes without the knowledge or consent of the community.

3. Links to criminal organizations — There are suggestions of "mafia-like" management methods, intimidation, and the removal of dissenting members of the organization.

4. Internal protests — It is mentioned that some devotees tried to draw attention to the issue and initiate an investigation, but their complaints were ignored or "swept under the rug."

5. Video evidence — Videos with exposés and comments, including from former participants, have been posted.

Video appeal from Chanchalapati Prabhu (February 2025):

1. Financial violations: He claims that Madhusevita and those associated with him used temple funds for personal enrichment. Fake organizations were created through which large sums of money were channeled. Some real estate transactions, he claims, were made in violation of the law and without the knowledge of most devotees.

2. Corruption and pressure: He describes an atmosphere of fear at the temple, where those who disagreed with the management were pressured or excluded. The issue of "cover-ups" by the GBC is raised, with Chanchalapati stating that complaints were received but not addressed.

3. Calls for justice: He urges devotees not to remain silent, to unite, and to demand an independent investigation. He also states that such abuses harm not only GBC ISKCON Italy but the reputation of the organization as a whole.

My dear Lord Krishna, I am a lost soul in Your material world.
I am totally entangled in the webs of Your illusion energy.
Please don't let me lose You from my vision.
Even if I remain entangled, please let me see your face from

Krsna performs rasa lila of two varieties, one in the autumn season and one in the spring season, Balarama also performs rasa dance at this time.

"To keep the gopīs in Vṛndāvana satisfied, Lord Balarāma stayed there continuously for two months, namely the months of Caitra (March–April) and Vaiśākha (April–May). For those two months He kept Himself among the gopīs, and He passed every night with them in the forest of Vṛndāvana to satisfy their desire for conjugal love. Thus Balarāma also enjoyed the rāsa dance with the gopīs during those two months."

"Vamshivadanananda Thakur was Krishna’s flute in Vraja."

(Gaura-ganoddesha-dipika 179)

The gopis praised the good fortune of Krishna’s flute, for he was able to constantly drink the nectar of Krishna’s lips. Everything in Vraja is spiritual, i.e., conscious, and so the flute could take human form as Sri Vamshivadanananda Thakur. His life story has been recounted by his grandson, Shrivallabha Das, in the book Vamshi-vilasa. Other books which contain details of his life are Shripata-paryatana and Bhakti- ratnakara, and the Gaudiya Vaishnava Abhidhana also gives a brief biography.

Vamshivadanananda Thakur was known by five names in Gaudiya Vaishnava society: Vamshivadana, Vamshidas, Vamshi, Vadana, and Vadanananda. He was a well-known writer of devotional songs. His appearance took place on the day of the spring full moon (in the month of Chaitra) in either 1416 (according to Vamshi-shiksha) or 1427 of the Shaka era (1495 or 1506 AD.).

Sri Shyamananda Prabhu, an eternal associate of Lord Sri Krishna, appeared on the 29th March, 1535 AD, in the village Dharenda of the Medinipur district in Gauda Mandal, West Bengal. As per Indian calender, it was Madhu Purnima of the month of Chaitra. His father's name was Sri Krishna Deva and his mother was Durika Devi. Earlier siblings of the couple had departed prematurely. When Sri Shyamananda Prabhu appeared, his parents planned to save him from Yamaraja's jaws by giving a misnomer name "Duhkhi" (sad).[...]

Pastimes of Sri Shyamananda Prabhu are beyond the comprehension of senses, mind and intelligence! Let us begin with the pastime of receiving Sri Shyamsundarji deity. Once, deeply immersed in Raasalila, Srimati Radharaniji lost the anklet or noopur of left foot. Sri Dukhi Krishnadas (as Sri Shyamananda Prabhu was then known) found this anklet. After a sweet and loving conversation, the anklet was returned. Later, under instructions of Srimati Radharaniji, Sri Dukhi Krishnadas chanted the Radha Mantra -which incorporates six opulence and was given to him by Sri Lalita Sakhi - took a dip in Radhakund and attained his spiritual body. In a ceremony conducted by Sri Roopa Manjari, Sri Lalita Sakhi gave him the name of Shyamananda and Vishakha Sakhi revealed his spiritual identity as Kanaka Manjari. Sri Lalita Sakhi and Srimati Radharaniji gave him the divine Tilak named "Shyam Mohan (Shyamanandi)" and then asked him to return to material world. Sri Dukhi Krishnadas was broken hearted with the very thought of separation and to mitigate his feelings, Srimati Radharaniji manifested a deity of Lord Sri Krishna from her lotus heart and gave it to him.[...]

FRIENDS AND ENEMIES

PADA: A Vaishnava has no friends or enemies? So I am faulty for having friends and enemies. Well thanks for that prabhu. But, as soon as we said there is a giant problem with the ISKCON children's mistreatment, we got booted out in 1979. Then, we became the enemy. We were declared as enemies by others, we did not start this process. 

The same thing happened with the HKC Jaipur / Prabhupadanugas / Mathura Pati type folks. They insisted I help them promote Radhanath's cheer leaders and promote the writings of Bhavananda's biggest cheer leader Hari Sauri. And they called me all sorts of names for not agreeing to help them promote their homosexual and pedophile Auschwitz for kids guru system's pals. 

They started all this. I simply responded by exposing them.

Did I forget to mention that Sulochana said Hari Sauri is calling us sahajiyas -- to make us targets? Why would I help them promote the program which defends child molester gurus with -- murders? Including that these false guru folks also wanted to murder -- me! And they may have had something to do with murder of a pure devotee! 

I am not a fan of their pedophile gurus and that is never going to change, despite all their name calling. The good news is -- this makes my life very, very simple. 999.999 percent of my "enemies" have sympathy for the pedophile pooja program. So I can sort all this out in no time. Even the Berkeley police told me, your opponents are helping create and cause all these crimes by enabling them. Is someone opposing me, and making me their enemy? Yep, 999.999 percent pedo pooja-ites. Simple stuff!  

In any case, the actual Vaishnava who has no friends or enemies is an uttama devotee generally, although Arjuna ended up having enemies -- despite being an uttama. Srila Prabhupada had enemies as well, because it goes with the territory of preaching in Kali Yuga. Even a child like Prahlad became an enemy of the asuras. A Vaishnava has no friends or enemies, yep, except there are evil people who will make them their enemy, especially if they preach openly like Prahlad was doing. A preacher cannot avoid making enemies, because he opposes sinful behaviors, so the sinful will retaliate.

And thus -- we also would have been terminated for our preaching, without timely help from Berkeley law enforcement and the FEDS. As we all know, the people who compromised with Draupadi being insulted, had to be punished. Srila Prabhupada says, as soon as Krishna saw how Draupadi was being insulted, He decided then and there, they all had to be punished by being eliminated. 

In other words, it is our duty to defend dharma, defend women and children, and defend spiritual principles established by the Supreme Being, or face dire consequences by the arrangement of the material world. Painting me as a crank and a "disgruntled follower" is how many crimes were enabled, including, crimes against children. 

The Supreme Being does not approve of these behaviors, for that matter -- neither does the average Joe beer drinking hamburger person. The Joe six pack approves of me challenging the worship of deviants who are causing mass child abuse. It is pretty much a universal principle. General rule: deviants think we should not oppose other deviants. 

One of the GBC defenders recently said to me that I am always crying that no one listened to me, at the same time he has been crying badly that they got sued for $400,000,000, OK --- ooops -- because no one listened to me. In other words, the main concern is crying about losing dollar bills and not losing the ISKCON children. 

Sorry, someone is going to have to pay for enabling these policies and actions. 

ISO 3 "Such materialistic asuras sometimes make a show of religion, but their ultimate aim is material prosperity. The Bhagavad-gītā (16.17–18) rebukes such men by calling them ātma-sambhāvita, meaning that they are considered great only on the strength of deception and are empowered by the votes of the ignorant and by their own material wealth. Such asuras, devoid of self-realization and knowledge of īśāvāsya, the Lord’s universal proprietorship, are certain to enter into the darkest regions." ys pd

CATURA HEALTH CRISIS


Srila Prabhupada’s direct disciple and the late great Rajendranandana Prabhu's wife, Mother Catura, desperately needs our assistance. She is on the verge of turning 80, has feeble health, is unable to work, and lives in San Diego, California, on a monthly income of $450. This is a golden opportunity to serve Srila Prabhupada’s elderly disciple, who has dedicated her life to his mission and is in great need.

PADA: A lot of Hare Krishna's did not pay into Social Security, so they get small amounts when they reach retirement age. For example one man was told he had earned only $135 a month benefits, because he had not paid into the system. Many others get more, but not really enough.

Needless to say, this creates quite a crisis for many elderly rank and file devotees who are getting very little financial benefits, home care etc. in their end time of life. Meanwhile most of the GBC elites have nice houses, cars, servants, medical care etc.

Catura lives with her son, Aja, who pays half the rent. Her savings are depleted, and her credit cards are maxed out, leaving her with a sizable debt. Her monthly income is $450 from a Social Security check, leaving her with insufficient funds to meet her basic needs. 

Please send blessings and prayers, and give what you can.

Catura was a Bhaktin leader in New York during ISKCON's early years. She served in New Dwarika in the 1970s and assisted in the miraculous publication marathon of the Caitanya Caritamrta. Throughout Catura's devotional career, she often distributed Srila Prabhupada’s books and assisted Rajendranandana when he was the San Diego Temple President and during his time as Hawaii Temple President. 

These are just a fraction of the seva she and her husband have performed.  Anyone who has had the pleasure of encountering Catura Dasi knows she is one of the most motherly, caring, sweet, and gentle people you will ever meet. Her exalted husband, the dear friend of all Vaisnavas, Rajendranandana prabhu, had a glorious departure from this world a few weeks after receiving a stage-4 cancer diagnosis in November of 2021. 

PADA: Yeah, what my Mormon nurse friend who reads my blog says to me, there is for sure a cancer epidemic in the Krishna community. Is it the stress? Or is it the eating of bhogha offered to the living pedophile messiah's club? Or both? Or what?

As many sadhus do, Catura and Raj chose a simple life, being absorbed in spreading bhakti yoga and personal spiritual practices. At the time of Rajendranandana’s abrupt departure, they had accumulated some savings, but not a significant amount.

Catura’s health has been challenging for decades, with autoimmune issues and chronic low energy. This wonderful elderly Vaisnavi cannot work and is at the mercy of all of us. Please, send prayers and blessings, and if you can, give whatever you can help this amazing, devoted Vaisnavi.

PADA: Yep, she needs help. I could not agree more. She needs money, she needs an assistant, she needs medical care and more, and she will end up needing more and more -- end of life care. In sum -- she needs what the GBC elites are getting all the time. But not the peons like her. 

This is one of hundreds of "fund me" we have posted on behalf of many sick, injured, ailing, if not fatally ill devotees. In some cases we posted fund me for devotees who were already dead and there were no funds to dispose of the body with a cremation. Fine way for a society to take care of its elders and -- dead!  

In other words, the GBC as a group failed to protect -- brahmanas, women, mothers, children, elders, the sick, the disabled and dying, and in some cases cows, but they have protected deviants posing as authorities.

We Allowed Maya Into Your House (Bhakti Tirtha Swami) 04 11 25

 


I Love The Founder Father of
Mayapur's
 Auschwitz for Kids.
And Homosexual Pedophile Messiahs like
Kirtanananda. 


“𝗪𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗮 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲”

𝘽𝙝𝙖𝙠𝙩𝙞 𝙏𝙞𝙧𝙩𝙝𝙖 𝙎𝙬𝙖𝙢𝙞

𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘦𝘨𝘨𝘢𝘳 2, 𝘔𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 11, “𝘏𝘦 𝘉𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘢 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘦 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯”

Dear Srila Prabhupada, please forgive my stubborn dullness, and please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to your exquisite service.

Each year I become more and more amazed as I reflect on the wondrous qualities of the house you built for all humankind. Actually, your house provides shelter for every earthbound living entity, but you have kindly left the furnishing of this house up to us. I am nevertheless so dull that, although I live in so many of the magnificent structures you painstakingly labored to build, not only do I get distracted from my duty of furnishing them, but I often do things that are destructive to your gorgeous edifices.

For one thing, other devotees and I often forget to uphold the stipulations of our occupancy permit. Although we promised rigidly to follow the four regulative principles—the essential aspect of our tenancy agreement—many of us who dwell in your house have abandoned these liberating principles to again dabble in gambling, intoxication, illicit connections and the eating of meat, fish or eggs.

Pathetically enough, we also often try to take over each others' rooms, in an interplay of power politics. In acting out these impurities, we constantly find ways to exploit and manipulate each other in attempts to enlarge our own kingdoms. 

We even fight with each other about which floor we will live on, creating discord between the different ashrams. We create artificial gaps between the renunciates and the householders; between the women and the men; between the first-generation disciples and the second- and third-generation grand- and great-grand disciples. All of this is simply evidence of our immense immaturity.

Worst of all, we often leave small children in the house unprotected. That is to say, we put our children in gurukula school systems without arranging proper programs for them to have a strong, healthy and protected educational experience.

Of course, our tendency to waste your resources is also a conspicuous embarrassment. We unnecessarily leave the electricity and heat running all day long, and we waste so much money on lawsuits that should have been avoided.

Because of this, you can rightfully call our whimsical spending habits concrete proof that we have made poor investments of your assets.

As if this were not enough, we also break the doors and windows of your house by not being sufficiently afraid of maya. Maya will attack the individual devotee as well as the community of devotees whenever and wherever there is an opening. When doors and windows are vandalized and destroyed, maya can very easily enter, and this is the condition in which we often leave your house.

Sometimes, we invite unhealthy guests into your house and then encounter serious trouble trying to boot them out. This occurs when devotees go outside of our devotional family and have unchaste association with other systems or with leaders of other systems. We should know better than this, and yet we often invite unworthy persons to come into your sacred residences and make themselves at home.

We also have another idiosyncrasy. Sometimes we only paint the outside of the house—as when we put great emphasis on public relations and on our external appearance, but do not properly care for individual devotees and the quality of their consciousness.

My dear Srila Prabhupada, the state of our front and back yards is also quite pathetic. We often let the grass grow wildly, engaging in hyperactive devotional service, but we refuse to remove the weeds. In this way, our devotional creepers get choked by the wild overgrowth of collective impurities.

As if this weren't bad enough, sometimes we even let parts of your house catch fire, destroying much of the wonderful mansion that you willed to us. This is of course the most dangerous of our offenses, because such fires seriously threaten the entire existence of your building and the total foundation that you have established. This occurs when we lose devotees en masse, and when we close down temples or preaching projects as a result of all the negativity we harbor.

Dear Srila Prabhupada, please forgive us for not properly maintaining what you have given us. Please empower us to move ahead and to complete the furnishing of the magnificent house that you have labored to build. The whole world is waiting to benefit from this creation. It is only due to our weaknesses that we have damaged and neglected this exquisite mansion in so many ways.

As seasoned heirs to your legacy who have made every error that can be made, we know that there is no better time than now for us to make the much-needed repairs to our inheritance. There is no better time than now to continue supplying the furnishings that will enhance the beauty of what you left behind in our care.
May all of us earnestly and vigorously do our parts, because it is certain that soon you will return to see the state of your house. Until then, I can only pray that we will quickly come up to speed so that when you return you will feel joyful pride in our contribution.

PADA: First of all, one of the oldest UK devotees named Kula Shekar (Colin Jury) had the living stuffing beaten out of him by Bhakti Tirtha disciples. He had to be hospitalized with broken bones and many other traumas to his body. Kula Shekar told me that after that incident, he had to take pain medications for the rest of his life. 

And he died untimely, and in dire care situation with little help. Actually, he had no help for his end of life care from ISKCON that I am aware of. And he was still suffering from the pains from his injuries even at the end. Yet, even after Kula Shekar died, Bhakti Tirtha was being glamorized in big ISKCON assemblies and he still is. The guy who creates Prabhupada's disciples to be beaten nearly to death is a hero for the GBC. 

This is how loving the Bhakti Tirtha Swami (BTS) program is, never mind his co-messiahs like Kirtanananda were helping a program that was assassinating dissenters, and I was almost taken out by their program. Never mind that BTS sannyasa guru Kirtanananda was a homosexual pedophile. And then BTS was good friends with Radhanath and other big players from New Vrndavana.

According to a female devotee from New Vrndavana who called herself Radha Govinda -- she and Hladini were sent to a civil war zone in Africa by BTS on purpose, to have them killed, because Hladini was going to expose love letters he had wrote to her. Hladini evidently wanted him to just marry her and he was not agreeing. Anyway, she died in very tragic circumstances, and it was known there was a problem because the state department had issued a warning not to visit there. Radha Govinda said she barely escaped being killed herself, by running and hiding in the woods. 

Long story short, BTS is part of the maya that entered the house. And he worked hand in glove with the other maya-ites to destroy ISKCON. He also thought he could absorb sins like Jesus, because he was extremely arrogant. Taking sins eventually caught up with him and he died of cancer. Srila Prabhupada told us many times, we neophytes will suffer if we take sins, but BTS does not care what Srila Prabhupada says. 

Anyway, his letter is important because it shows, they knew all along all the damage their policies were creating. That means they knowingly brought maya into the house. And the people who bring maya into the house of Krishna, and cause unlimited suffering to others, especially children, will have to suffer serious consequences. Of course, some of them are already suffering consequences now.

PADA: Yeah. When I would complain about the children's mistreatment -- many times the rank and file devotees -- and often parents -- would severely chastise me, if not shout at me, for "destroying ISKCON" and all that. They just seemed to have no clue what the priority is for their children. 

Even when it came to the point that some of the children victims were taking their lives, a number of devotees were still screaming at me for "destroying ISKCON." Some of them still insult me and so on. 

They thought they had a duty to save something, but they ultimately saved nothing -- that I can see at least. Their children are almost wholesale alienated, and ISKCON has become a ghost town with a very bad public reputation. 

They fought hard to save the house from burning, but did not save the people inside the house. I told one devotee, you are complaining that I am using a fireman's pick axe to open the door, but you are not complaining about what is happening to the people inside. 

Yeah lots of people just got carried away with the rigid externals, and they forgot to become the loving and caring vaishnavas they were supposed to become. I have a lady friend who left the Mormons, and same type thing, she is shunned and lost all her family associations etc. These rigid external fanatics lost the whole point of the religion, which is to develop a loving and caring heart. ys pd

ISKCON's "Current" Molester Gurus / Sridhara Srinivasa dasa etc. 04 09 25


PADA: Dear Bhaktin F. thanks for your question: "Our temple says there are no pedophiles in their guru system -- currently. They were there in the past but have been removed. How can we be sure there are no pedophiles in their current system"? 

We might have to ask the question, what kind of guru chain from God "sometimes" or "at different times" contains pedophiles, and sometimes does not? And why would the first wave of post-1978 gurus, which does contain pedophiles, have the authority to vote in the next wave? The guru is qualitatively the same as God in purity, therefore -- sometimes pedophiles are gurus. What? 

In other words, even if one of their gurus is not a pedophile, many of them -- or you might say all of the later add ons -- were subsequently voted into a guru system that does contain pedophiles. So if a person is "voted in" to a guru system that contains pedophiles, it means he is contaminated by the pedophile gurus in his system. A chain is only as good as any one of the individual links is. We cannot replace an anchor chain link on the Queen Mary's anchor with a piece of sweater fuzz, it won't work. 

First of all, any guru who is in their system since 1978 is still in their system, since all guru parampara member's positions are permanent, or are actually eternal. Srila Prabhupada, Lord Chaitanya are our gurus past and current -- and always will be. There is no adding and subtracting from a chain of gurus from God. 

All links in Krishna's guru parampara remain there now and forever. Therefore, we do not commonly find the ISKCON leaders saying, the fallen gurus in their system are not, were not, could not have been gurus. They were gurus, but they say -- gurus fail and fall commonly.  

Yet there are no examples of "eternal links" in God's ACTUAL guru system or succession being added, and then being eliminated later due to deviations. Of course, the next question is, if there were -- or still are -- deviants and pedophiles in the ISKCON GBC guru system, then the people who annointed, enabled and placed these deviants into the alleged guru succession parampara from God, are also not gurus. 

But to answer your question specifically, yes, there still are CURRENT pedophiles in the GBC guru system, such as Lokanath swami. There may be others, but who can say for sure since these leaders have very private and hidden life styles. And worse, life can be very miserable for a dissenter or a person exposing these gurus. 

Giriraja swami for example was exposed as a disciple molester, but as far as we know, he is still being recognized as some sort of guru. Now he is STILL a guru, allegedly with dementia, which is causing him to have his material skirt chasing desires. 

Thus, if a guru who has sex with a follower is the same as a father having sex with his daughter, according to Srila Prabhupada, then we have had a lot of de facto pedophiles in their system. Unfortunately, there are many apologists in ISKCON and even among my own God brothers, who have rationalized that acharyas are commonly falling into material illusion, if not highly degraded failures. 

For example we also have people like Bhakta das -- still apologizing for the GBC guru system like his allies -- who are upset we are opposing people like "Saint Radhanath." OK but Saint Radhanath helped bury a known homosexual pedophile in a samadhi. Thus we have current pedophiles -- and previous pedophiles -- still being worshiped now. We also have their porno watching swami now "eternally resting" in a samadhi in the holy dham. OK this guy is resting on the lower planets and not with Krishna in Vrndavana currently.

So they are still promoting the worship of deviants, past or present. However in a guru parampara from God Almighty, past or present is not an issue, all the gurus in the chain from God are part of the chain forever. In other words, we cannot say this person -- has been deviating -- but he is still considered as a past or present link in God's guru chain. Deviating people are not, were not, could not have been -- in the guru chain from God. 

Later on, Dayalu Nitai's HKC Jaipur / Sanat / Mukunda / Prahlad / Mathura Pati / Prabhupadanugas EU folks became infuriated that I was not agreeing to help them promote their Bhakta dasa / Saint Radhanath program, that buries pedophiles in the dham, assassinates dissenters, poisons pure devotees etc. Worse, they collectively said their homosexual and pedophile guru system is "the Golden Body of God and Guru." Of course, even the average Joe six pack on the sidewalk already knows a homosexual and pedophile guru system is not "The Golden Body of God."

I also have a number of homosexual friends here in San Francisco -- and none of them -- actually zero percent of them, believe that any of the other homosexuals around here are "The Golden Body of God." They are more advanced than this lot, hence they mainly worship Jesus. 

In fact HKC Jaipur thug Prahlad said he was sending my photo to his homosexual and pedophile guru program's enforcers to have me silenced. So, they even want to have the people who are not promoting their "Golden Body of God" pedophile messiahs -- taken out. And that is why people ask me, what is the difference between them and the GBC? Sorry, PADA has no inclination to help promote homosexual and pedophiles as acharyas programs, just not going to happen. 


For his part Sridhara Srinivasa dasa recently told some of our folks essentially -- that the system of worshiping pure devotees is meant to be temporary, while they are physically present, but after that -- the floodgates open and we can follow the Bhakti Vikas swami program of worshiping illicit sex with men, women and children, pedophiles, drunks and so on as "God's successors." 

Where does Krishna say worship of His pure devotee is a temporary process? Sorry, worship of the pure devotee is an eternal process, or perhaps a life after life process, but at no point does it end and become replaced with worship of homosexuals and pedophiles etc. 

Worse, their India Continental Commitee (ICC) folks told me the reason I am not promoting illicit sex and / or drunken deviants as messiahs is "you are a mleccha." OK, that is correct, us mlecchas do not promote the worship of illicit sex with men, women and children as their messiahs. 

The ICC are also big promoters of Lokanath and many other deviants as messiahs. Anyway, yeah, the ISKCON process after 1978 promotes "living" pedophiles, or de facto pedophiles, and promotes a process of departed pedophiles buried in samadhis etc., and / or then they vote in more people as the guru successors to their pedophile gurus. None of this is authorized. ys pd

Mayesvara dasa: Thanks! Yep, as thousands of children were getting severely messed up in your system, you guys made fun of me and Sulochana and others for objecting. We all know the odious results. And you are proud of the results self evidently. You don't need to listen to me, thousands and thousands of your victims can tell you -- I was right about what they experienced. And for that matter Nori is another of your system's victims. But I like this, it perfectly explains why we had to have your program sued for $400,000,000, you would rather spend $400,000,000 than listen to me, so be it! ys pd

"Kṛṣṇa says specifically in Bhagavad-gītā that prakṛti, māyā, is working under His directions. Māyā is the maidservant of Kṛṣṇa..."

Teachings of Lord Kapila, the Son of Devahuti: 

TLK 10: Spiritual Attachment and Material Detachment : 

TLK 18: "So He has given us little independence because we are part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is fully independent. He does not depend on anyone. But although we have got independence to a certain extent, but under the control of māyā. In the spiritual life there is also māyā. That is called yoga-māyā.And in the material life there is also māyā. That is called mahā-māyā, Durgā. So we, being very little... Just like small children. He is given either to the mother for taking care or to the nurse for taking care. The little child must be taken care of, either by the mother or an appointed nurse, maidservant."

Lectures : Srimad-Bhagavatam 3.26.41 -- Bombay, January 16, 1975


"To give service to the Lord, yogamāyā appeared along with mahāmāyā. Mahāmāyā refers to yayā sammohitaṁ jagat, “one who bewilders the entire material world.” From this statement it is to be understood that yogamāyā, in her partial expansion, becomes mahāmāyā and bewilders the conditioned souls. In other words, the entire creation has two divisions—transcendental, or spiritual, and material. Yogamāyā manages the spiritual world, and by her partial expansion as mahāmāyā she manages the material world. 

As stated in the Nārada-pañcarātra, mahāmāyā is a partial expansion of yogamāyā. The Nārada-pañcarātra clearly states that the Supreme Personality has one potency, which is sometimes described as Durgā. The Brahma-saṁhitā says, chāyeva yasya bhuvanāni bibharti durgā [Bs. 5.44]. Durgā is not different from yogamāyā. When one understands Durgā properly, he is immediately liberated, for Durgā is originally the spiritual potency, hlādinī-śakti, by whose mercy one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead very easily. 

Rādhā kṛṣṇa-praṇaya-vikṛtir hlādinī-śaktir asmād [Adi 1.5]. The mahāmāyā-śakti,however, is a covering of yogamāyā,and she is therefore called the covering potency. By this covering potency, the entire material world is bewildered (yayā sammohitaṁ jagat). In conclusion, bewildering the conditioned souls and liberating the devotees are both functions belonging to yogamāyā."

SB 10.1.69 :

Prabhupāda: Mahāmāyā. Mahāmāyā, the illusory energy. (chuckling) So illusory energy is not bad. Illusory energy is another face of Rādhārāṇī. Those who do not want to worship Kṛṣṇa, for them illusory energy is there.

Lectures : Initiations : Initiations -- New York, July 24, 1971

"In the above-quoted verse from Bhagavad-gītā, the words daivīṁ prakṛtim refer to the control of the internal potency, or pleasure potency, of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This pleasure potency is manifested as Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, or Her expansion Lakṣmī, the goddess of fortune. 

When the individual jīva souls are under the control of the internal energy, their only engagement is the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa, or Viṣṇu. This is the position of a mahātmā. If one is not a mahātmā, he is a durātmā, or a cripple-minded person. Such mentally crippled durātmās are put under the control of the Lord’s external potency, mahāmāyā.

Indeed, all living entities within this material world are under the control of mahāmāyā, whose business is to subject them to the influence of threefold miseries"

/noi/texts/noi_2

"When you are being gradually advanced in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, that is the action of yogamāyā. And when you are gradually forgetting Kṛṣṇa, that is the action of mahāmāyā. Māyā is acting upon you. The one is dragging you, and one is pushing you opposite way. Yogamāyā."

Lecture

Seattle, October 18, 1968

"Similarly, mahamaya is horrible to the conditioned soul, but to the liberated soul, there is no fear of mahamaya, because he is protected by yogamaya. It is stated in the Bhagavad-gita when Krishna said the following: "I am not visible to everyone on account of being curtained by yogamaya.'' So when a conditioned soul surrenders unto Krishna, the yogamaya winds up the curtain and Krishna is visible to the devotee. "

Letters : 1968 Correspondence : July : Letter to: Madhusudana -- Montreal 29 July, 1968 : 68-07-29

"When the demon is thus set right and surrenders to Her will, the Mahamaya then manifests Her real entity in the Form MahaLaxmi engaged in the eternal service of Śrī Narayana, and at that time She gives Her son all facilities for the service of the Father, assisted will all opulence, all power, all fame, all beauties, all knowledge and all renunciation."
