I recently had the opportunity to read the heart-wrenching testimony of Vedasara das. He was five years old when he came to the Mayapura Gurukula and he stayed there for 21 years until he was 26. He tells the story of how he was terribly molested, abused, and tortured, particularly when he was a vulnerable child incapable of defending himself. He confirms that he was “sexually assaulted by a total of 8 people.”
