Thanks Yamaraja, yes, and moreover even Aindra was being suppressed and censured, he was not allowed to vote for a peanut, despite his being the darling of ISKCON. I really hope I can get a copy of his book.
He made some very pertinent comments in his vyasa puja offering which I am going to gather together and put into a youtube video. I have to say, if they were trying to suppress his book, and he suddenly dies, sounds like a CSI TV show mystery premise to me. ys pd
Jul 26, 2010 — INDIA (SUN) — Everyone loves Aindra Prabhu. He was a Sadhu. And Sadhus are always unconventional. For this he was banned from giving classes in ISKCON Vrindavan.
Just one week before Aindra Prabhu left his body in Vrindavan, his long awaited book should have been published. The GBC and ISKCON were warning him that he should not release it and if he did so, then he would have to leave ISKCON. And now that he leaves his body they celebrate him as one of their saints. Many GBC members wrote heartbreaking remembrances – did they also stand for him in the GBC, when the publication of his book was being discussed?
In ISKCON it is only allowed to write books that are exactly “in line” with the given opinion. Critics and persons who write slightly different opinions are banned. I would call this an intellectual corruption. 15 years ago, Kundali Prabhu wrote his books “Our Mission”, and for this he was thrown out of ISKCON.
The maturity of a society is measured by how it deals with critics. To erase criticism is always a sign of fear – that one does not really have faith that one is in the truth: because truth does not need to be defended. It is sva-pramanya (self-illuminous). A sincere searcher on the way home is inviting other opinions and he wants to consider them thoroughly, and then make a decision in his heart. Only children have to be protected.
As long as there is no culture of free discussion we will not attract thoughtful souls to our Bhakti movement, but only people who are looking for dependence.
I am still hoping that the devotees around Aindra Prabhu will have the courage to publish his book, and the GBC will not censure it.

pamho agtacbsp hg aindra prabhu could do the revolution from varsana by knowing that he got some many enemies in iskcon i were leave iskcon immediately if they were stop me to give class in vrindavana hg aindra prabhu knew what’s happen to hg sulocana prabhu for the same reason so sometime we need to use the common sense and not just think sri krsna will protect me like the man in the ocean almost die under water a airplan pass through and ask him sir do you need any help no sri krsna will save me then a ferry boat pass through and ask him the same question and he answer in the same way so he die in the ocean under water and then he ask to krsna i was trust you why you didn’t come to save me and sri krsna told him i sent you a airplan a ferry boat etc.. why you didn’t take it? in the same way 3 warning were there by krsna for hg aindra prabhu when the gbc refuse him class sannyas and book srila prabhupada also use to say the same we have to become practical means to be conscious about what we are where we are and where we are going but as you know when someone become too dear to krsna through nama kirtana sri krsna make that person to forget how to use the common sense because he want take him back to him so this is the only reason why hg aindra prabhu didn’t moved from the enemies field after all we are nobody, for sri krsna everything is brahman so everything will go back to that param brahman as he wish we have no power to stop sri krsna in doing what he want do we can’t even understand his plain desire action etc.. unless he become satisfy by our umility then just by a glimpse of his mercy we can understand what our business really is in this temporary world dandavats daso smi seva das haribol
