Jun 04, 2011 — TIMBUKTU (SUN) — Rohith Kaushik wrote a very common sense article, “Winning a Battle Only to Lose a War“. Why disturb a temple that is so greatly spreading Krishna Consciousness and even surpassing all ISKCON temples in its performance.
We heard a lengthy account by a godsister, of a visit she took to the Bangalore temple. She was actually amazed at every step of the way! She described in detail each alcove, how fantastically expertly this temple is run. Why would any Krishna Conscious person want to change this when they could not make it any better in glorifying Srila Prabhupada and Lord Krishna?
We have all seen many articles now on this topic, but who exactly in ISKCON is behind the main thrust to dismantle the Bangalore temple from Madhu Pandit, and therefore who exactly has spent the great sums of money to accomplish this in the courts? Who? Jayapataka Swami? The old GBC for Canada, Gopal Krishna Swami? Who?
We have all heard the history of the money spent in court battles after Srila Prabhupada’s guru, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Swami, disappeared and how our Srila Prabhupada begged us all with his loving attitude, to cooperate with each other. Is it simply because ISKCON does not control the laksmi flow at the Bangalore temple?
Now most every ISKCON guru I hear about always initiates new disciples with the phrase, “I am initiating you on behalf of Srila Prabhupada.” It’s no longer the ‘worship me’ attitude. So is it simply a false ego issue? In the case of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta’s assets, they squandered it all on court cases, whereas he had said we can rip out all the temple marble in order to publish and sell books. They simply lost it all to court expenses.
In the case of Bangalore temple, it could hardly be doing any better, although it appears to be continually expanding. ISKCON would simply have its GBC take over, thus losing most of the expert devotees now in charge under Madhu Pandit. They would be dismayed to see Srila Prabhupada’s importance diminished in any way. All of a sudden, you would get a parade of ISKCON guru’s coming through to speak and be worshiped as good as God, which they are not.
So what are the names of the infamous devotees who have spent all the money to take over the Bangalore temple?
ISKCON TRUTH Reply
Firstly, Understand the fact that ISKCON Bangalore is the only temple which is following ritvik system initiated by srila prabhupada. Rama das as asked ” Why would any Krsna Conscious person want to change this when they could not make it any better in glorifying Srila Prabhupada and Lord Krsna?” wonderful question and the answer is with False gurus. Madhu pandit dasa is preaching people to come to srila prabhupada and making people understand the facts and truth of iskcon and its guru system. see understand the fact that ISKCON Bangalore is doing many things like Akshaya patra and etc which has got so many national and international award but comparatively “Food for life” is struggling, so krishna is with ISKCON Bangalore.

The second question is ” who exactly in ISKCON is behind the main thrust to dismantle the Bangalore temple from Madhu Pandit, and therefore who exactly has spent the great sums of money to accomplish this in the courts? Who? Jayapataka Swami? The old GBC for Canada, Gopal Krsna Swami? Who?”
According to my sources ISKCON Mumbai with the help of Mayapur builder Anukula Keshav has spent more than 50 crores on this case. This takes back to 4 years, i mean Anukula Keshav has given a big site to MLA D.K shivkumar which costs upto 1.5 crores, Meda publication brings upto about 2 crores and Money to Highcourt Judges comes upto 5 crores” so who is spending more money??? if madhu pandit dasa gets so much money he’ll not hide it but he’ll spend it on children. if you want the history then i can give you many examples from New Vrindavan to Mayapur.
The final question is “So what are the names of the infamous devotees who have spent all the money to take over the Bangalore temple? ”
See the main master mind behind this is Anukula Keshav & Dayaram Das. Varada Krishna dasa who knows madhu pandit das very well also joined the team. The remote control is with Jayapataka swami who is controlling all these people from mayapur.
Hare Krishna, I am writing this article as a reply to http://www.harekrsna.com/sun/editorials/06-11/editorials7340.htm written by His Grace Rama Prabhu
“Why disturb a temple that is so greatly spreading Krsna Consciousness and even surpassing all ISKCON temples in its performance.”
Dear Rama Prabhu, they are all envious of the grandeur of the temple. They are all missing the real punch of the temple environment and its grand festival celebrations. They are all missing the activities here which happen to satisfy Srila Prabhupada, a pure devotee of Lord Krishna and by whose mere presence the atmosphere is converted into Vaikuntha.
“Who exactly in ISKCON is behind the main thrust to dismantle the Bangalore temple from Madhu Pandit, and therefore who exactly has spent the great sums of money to accomplish this in the courts?”
The two main persons involved in this are His Holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaja and His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaja. They are the main funders. Then their action men are Sriman Varada Krishna Dasa and Sriman Dayarama Dasa. These two men are very notorious and envious. They have not left any stone unturned to bring down this temple. They have spent one and half crores after the High court verdict to create false propaganda in media. Before that how much they have spent on media to defame this temple, there is no account of that.
Dayarama Dasa runs his own business – a civil construction company, PILES Foundation and makes his personal income. He himself declares the same in the following article (http://www.prabhupadanugas.eu/news/?p=20324&cpage=1#comment-2629). Dayarama has been permitted by GBC men to build his apartment in Mayapur by spending crores of money and to sell those apartments to devotees at a much higher cost. All Prabhupada disciples! Please watch out, your money is not going to Temple Construction Fund but for this fighting. And we also don’t know how much his pockets are becoming lengthy. There is no accountability of the same. So next time when you purchase flats from Dayarama please question him about this.

Being ISKCON leaders, how can they be involved into such personal businesses? Where is the question of personal money for them? I was shocked when I also heard that Bhima Dasa visits US once in a year to do some special business on US beaches. Why are these things required for these leaders? Why are they having personal funds and filling their own pockets? Why are GBCs not questioning them and allowing them to do so? Just because DRD and VKD are fighting the battle for them?
GBC’s are recommended to pool money on temple construction rather than fighting for this cause. Why can’t they just leave devotees peacefully and allow them to follow Srila Prabhupada? Have they committed any wrong by accepting Prabhupada as their spiritual master? Where is it mentioned that we should reject Prabhupada and surrender to these gurus? Why should we? We are not guaranteed of our advancement in devotional service by these gurus. But Prabhupada has promised, if one follows his instructions, one can surely go back home, back to Godhead.
Dayarama Dasa and Varada Krishna Dasa want to become the President and Vice-president of this temple. This is their main interest. They just want to bring down this beautiful temple which serves as an example for running the temple successfully, which is run as how Prabhupada wanted to be – massive prasadam distribution, massive book distribution, intelligent devotees joining full time, thousands of them coming and appreciating the beauty of the Lord and chanting the holy names, gorgeous Deity worship, and what not?
All Srila Prabhupada’s disciples watch out. He is going to use the money from apartments in fighting the case. Your own money to fight your own spiritual master! Or it might go into his pocket.

Nuff said, especially “the II”

Quote… “Now most every ISKCON guru I hear about always initiates new disciples with the phrase, “I am initiating you on behalf of Srila Prabhupada.” It’s no longer the ‘worship me’ attitude.”
Bal reply… yes, that’s all very nice, but that big show of duplicity stops as soon as the yagna is extinguished. Now the cheating and stealing from His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada begins in ernest. These misguided followers then worship them ‘as good as God’ with all the trappings, so how can you say ‘it’s no longer the worship me attitude’. That’s exactly what the PAD disease is all about.
If you have ‘initiated on behalf of Srila Prabhupada’ (= ritvik), then all daksina obviously belongs to His Divine Grace. All we see are these bogus rubber stamped guroos existing on ill gotten gains.
Just like in Australia we have a Governor-General who is the appointed representative of the Queen. Part of that duty is to accept offerings and even gifts to the Queen on her behalf and of course deliver them to her. Just imagine the GG keeping all for themself. Same thing here we have these bogi-yogis stealing from the Founder-Acarya in his own society.
