Whereas, the leaders of ISKCON India are shocked and offended that the ISKCONnews.org website ran an article that endorses the book, “Destroyer of sorrow” (the final book in the “Sita’s Fire triology”) written by Vrinda Sheth,
Whereas, the concepts mentioned in the article contradict the concept that vedic shastras are divine and therefore free from human defects,
Whereas, we recognize that anyone and everyone has a right to propagate their own ideas, but if they contradict the teachings of shastras and acharyas, it should not be endorsed by official ISKCON,
Therefore we, the ICC, call upon the GBC to instruct the editors of the ISKCONnews.org website to remove the article from it’s site.
Further, ISKCON India will undertake a review of the book and publish it’s findings. The ICC directs ISKCON India temples not to display or sell the book at least until the review is complete.
