Basically we have an organization where the brahamanas live in fear of speaking the Absolute Truth. Bravo!
AG-Editor’s purport: “6. If in an unfortunate situation of the Mataji deciding to get married to her disciple after becoming a Diksha Guru, ISKCON will become a laughing stock!” This was a good point. There’s an old lecture by HH Bhaktividya Purna Swami Maharaja, he makes the same point. As with the Croatian yatra’s mild opposition this too is worded very softly and is not arriving at the point. Sounds like a memo from a powerless civil services department of a government to that nation’s almighty legislative body. But they seem to have done their duty with whatever was in their powers to do. Basically we have an organization where the brahamanas live in fear of speaking the Absolute Truth. Bravo!
AG-Editor’s Comments: Yes, he really said that! You’d think that we the people at AG are so desperately hating women that we are making this up. This is not so. This one is real – there are people on ISKCON’s “left wing” who have come up with this. There are senior leaders/GBCs etc in iskcon, well, at least one, Praghoshji, who has come up with the worst and most laughable argument to date in iskcon on the whole FDG topic. If you thought that the “we are not the body” argument is bad, wait till you’ve seen this one. Checkered Flag! He took it!
Apart from that: Many important facts – technical information about the nature of diskha and what Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati said about this, etc comes up – this is an important read.
Oh yes, it is the same Praghosh Das who gets to decide what articles go up on GBC’s official website www.dandavats.com and he in in charge of scrutinizing/understanding what comment/article is following the teachings of the brahmanas, the previous vaishnava acharyas and Srila Prabhupada…well, that explains a lot. An extremely well written essay. I couldn’t be happier having it on this website.]
