Krishna Kirti Das: How We Understand Srila Prabhupada (and why consensus is so elusive)

This video presentation was made to the IIAC (ISKCON India Advisory Council) on 21 November, 2019. The slide presentation explains why there are so many long-standing controversies within ISKCON and how this lack of consensus is indicative of a wide-spread deviation from Srila Prabhupada’s instructions on how to properly understand spiritual subjects. This analytical perspective is then further employed to examine the female diksa-guru controversy within ISKCON.
