Jan 28 2012, Los Angeles, California — Srila Prabhupada wanted the temple presidents to elect the GBC Members for three year terms, after which they could be re-elected, or return to their temples as temple presidents. This means that Srila Prabhupada put the power of Iskcon into the hands of the MEMBERS of Iskcon, who would certainly not be easy to fool, and even less, fool themselves. If an elected GBC “screws up” then he can be recalled by his CONSTITUENTS who represent the Congregation of each temple.
The GBC (as we know it) REPEATEDLY REFUSED to obey Srila Prabhupada’s order for GBC to be elected. (This can be clearly studied at the website: iskcon-dom.com) The CONSTITUTIONAL CHARTER OF ISKCON CREATED BY SRILA PRABHUPADA IS CALLED: “THE DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT” AND IT CLEARLY OUTLINES EXACTLY HOW SRILA PRABHUPADA WANTED HIS SOCIETY TO BE RUN!
So, having refused to be elected, the GBC went on to the “mad quest” to become “gurus” and then to have an “iron grip” on so-called gurus that they (a secular body) appointed, controlled, and constantly menaced with political threats. (IMAGINE a GURU under the control of secular men!)
But these GBC appointed gurus were not real gurus at all! They did (and do) not display the qualities of the Uttama Adhikari, (Pure Unalloyed Devotee of the Lord…..like Srila Prabhupada), and not even the qualities of the Madhyam Adhikari (steady self-realized devotee who does not fall down) nor even the qualities of the Kanistha Adhikari. A faithful follower of the four regulative principles, who has REALIZED that he, himself is SPIRIT SOUL, and not merely a “body” with hopes of future advancement within the Iskcon organization, and a distant hope of “salvation”, or “Mukti”.
Prava Vishnu was NEVER a pure devotee. Also, he was not serious about his OWN spiritual advancement, or he would have remained in the LEARNING process (Kanistha Adhikari) rather than grossly pretending to be in the PRECEPTORIAL MASTER PLATFORM, by which he could save the whole world! (Srila Prabhupada is such a Master..in fact, the only one on the planet for the next ten thousand years of the Golden Age of Kali).
So, Prava Vishnu was probably never even a REAL Kanistha Adhikari, because, WHERE WAS HIS REALIZATION THAT HE WAS NOT HIS BODY, BUT SPIRIT SOUL?
Had we continued to ONLY FOLLOW SRILA PRABHUPADA AS OUR SPIRITUAL MASTER, we would (nor could) ever have been cheated…..AND THE WORLD TODAY WOULD HAVE BECOME A MUCH DIFFERENT AND VASTLY BETTER PLACE!
With AHAM BRAHMASMI the NEW principle for INTERNATIONAL FAITH, wars such as Iraq and Afghanistan would never have come about….Nor would the horrors presently taking place in Africa, the collapse of Europe, and the increasing helplessness of the Western Culture, with America the most helpless of all.
IT IS TIME TO “OCCUPY ISKCON” and we, the “99%” who have washed all the dishes, and paid for all the finery worn by the latest “guru” can DEMAND THAT WE GET OUR SPRITUAL MASTER, SRILA PRABHUPADA BACK…..BACK IN THE VERY CENTER OF ISKCON.
Let the rascal unelected GBC and the pitiful guru-slaves of he GBC take their money and run to spend it in Thailand with Shopkeeper girls or other girls (or little children?) elsewhere.
OCCUPY ISKCON…..AND “THIS KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS MOVEMENT WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS HAVING SAVED THE WORLD IN ITS MOMENTOUS HOUR OF NEED”.
That will be an Iskcon that we can JOIN!
“…. turn to their temples as temple presidents. This means that Srila Prabhupada put the power of Iskcon into the hands of the MEMBERS of Iskcon, who would certainly not be easy to fool, and even less, fool themselves.”
Yeah right, members of Fiskcon were collectively cheated, robbed, mislead and raped for the last 35 years and now all of a sudden they have become immune from being fooled. Many of them even started pretending to be as good as God. I totally believe you when you say that they would never fool themselves. totally. Seriously. Like 100%.
