TRANSLATION

Lord Brahma, Bhagavan Narada, Lord Siva, the four Kumaras, Lord Kapila [the son of Devahuti], Svayambhuva Manu, Prahlada Maharaja, Janaka Maharaja, Grandfather Bhisma, Bali Maharaja, Sukadeva Gosvami and I myself know the real religious principle. My dear servants, this transcendental religious principle, which is known as bhagavata-dharma, or surrender unto the Supreme Lord and love for Him, is uncontaminated by the material modes of nature. It is very confidential and difficult for ordinary human beings to understand, but if by chance one fortunately understands it, he is immediately liberated, and thus he returns home, back to Godhead.

PURPORT

In Bhagavad-gita Lord Krsna refers to bhagavata-dharma as the most confidential religious principle (sarva-guhyatamam, guhyad guhyataram). Krsna says to Arjuna, “Because you are My very dear friend, I am explaining to you the most confidential religion.” Sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja: “Give up all other duties and surrender unto Me.” One may ask, “If this principle is very rarely understood, what is the use of it?” In answer, Yamaraja states herein that this religious principle is understandable if one follows the parampara system of Lord Brahma, Lord Siva, the four Kumaras and the other standard authorities. There are four lines of disciplic succession: one from Lord Brahma, one from Lord Siva, one from Laksmi, the goddess of fortune, and one from the Kumaras. The disciplic succession from Lord Brahma is called the Brahma-sampradaya, the succession from Lord Siva (Sambhu) is called the Rudra-sampradaya, the one from the goddess of fortune, Laksmiji, is called the Sri-sampradaya, and the one from the Kumaras is called the Kumara-sampradaya. One must take shelter of one of these four sampradayas in order to understand the most confidential religious system. In the Padma Purana it is said, sampradaya-vihina ye mantras te nisphala matah: if one does not follow the four recognized disciplic successions, his mantra or initiation is useless. In the present day there are many apasampradayas, or sampradayas which are not bona fide, which have no link to authorities like Lord Brahma, Lord Siva, the Kumaras or Laksmi. People are misguided by such sampradayas. The sastras say that being initiated in such a sampradaya is a useless waste of time, for it will never enable one to understand the real religious principles.

Note: conditioned souls posing as Diksa guru in ISKCON are NOT bonafide: they have NO Order from Srila Prabhupada neither are they Maha Bhagavata so they can NOT give the mantra. They only give the alphabet:

SB 6.8.42 P The Narayana-kavaca Shield

One must receive all kinds of mantras from a bona fide spiritual master; otherwise the mantras will not be fruitful. This is also indicated in Bhagavad-gita (4.34):

tad viddhi pranipatena
pariprasnena sevaya
upadeksyanti te jnanam
jnaninas tattva-darsinah

“Just try to learn the truth by approaching a spiritual master. Inquire from him submissively and render service unto him. The self-realized soul can impart knowledge unto you because he has seen the truth.” All mantras should be received through the authorized guru, and the disciple must satisfy the guru in all respects, after surrendering at his lotus feet. In the Padma Purana it is also said, sampradaya-vihina ye mantras te nisphala matah. There are four sampradayas, or disciplic successions, namely the Brahma-sampradaya, the Rudra-sampradaya, the Sri sampradaya and the Kumara-sampradaya. If one wants to advance in spiritual power, one must receive his mantras from one of these bona fide sampradayas; otherwise he will never successfully advance in spiritual life.

SSR 2 Choosing a Spiritual Master

One who interprets the divine sound, or sabda-brahma, by his imperfect sense perception cannot be a real spiritual guru, because, in the absence of proper disciplinary training under the bona fide acarya, the interpreter is sure to differ from Vyasadeva (as the Mayavadis do). Srila Vyasadeva is the prime authority of Vedic revelation, and therefore such an irrelevant interpreter cannot be accepted as the guru, or acarya, howsoever equipped he may be with all the acquirements of material knowledge. As it is said in the Padma Purana:

sampradaya-vihina ye

mantras te nisphala matah

“Unless you are initiated by a bona fide spiritual master in the disciplic succession, the mantra that you might have received is without any effect.”

On the other hand, one who has received the transcendental knowledge by aural reception from the bona fide preceptor in the disciplic chain, and who has sincere regard for the real acarya, must needs be enlightened with the revealed knowledge of the Vedas. But this knowledge is permanently sealed to the cognitive approach of the empiricists. As it is said in the Svetasvatara Upanisad (6.23):

yasya deve para bhaktir
yatha deve tatha gurau
tasyaite kathita hy arthah
prakasante mahatmanah

“Only unto those great souls who simultaneously have implicit faith in both the Lord and the spiritual master are all the imports of Vedic knowledge automatically revealed.

“N98:CAT 12 HOW TO LOVE GOD books

For instance, Arjuna learned Bhagavad-gita directly from Krsna. Therefore Arjuna is a mahajana. So you should learn from Arjuna. You follow the way Arjuna acted and the way Arjuna understood Krsna. Then mahajano yena gatah sa panthah: you are following the mahajana–you are on the real path. Just as we are.

In these verses from Srimad-Bhagavatam is a list of mahajanas, including Svayambhu, or Lord Brahma. So this sampradaya of ours is called the Brahma-sampradaya. Our sampradaya also includes Narada, another mahajana. Sambhu, or Lord Siva, is still another mahajana. He has his own sampradaya, the Rudra-sampradaya. And similarly, Laksmi, the goddess of fortune, has the Sri-sampradaya.

So we must belong to one these sampradayas. Sampradaya-vihina ye mantras te nisphala matah: if you do not belong to a bona fide sampradaya, originating from a mahajana, then your religious process is useless. You cannot concoct some religious system. So whether you follow the Christian mahajanas or the Vedic mahajanas, it doesn’t matter. But you have to follow the mahajanas. If a Christian says, “I don’t believe in St. Thomas,” what kind of Christian is he? It doesn’t matter which mahajana we are discussing. The real mahajana is he who is strictly following the principles enunciated by God. Then he is following a real religious system. Otherwise, there is no question of religion. The so-called follower is simply a mano-dharmi, a mental speculator. Mental speculation is not religion. Religion is the order of God, and one who follows that order–he is religious. That’s all.

SC 21 Confidential Knowledge

In the Bhagavad-gita Lord Krsna refers to bhagavata-dharma as the most confidential religious principle (sarva-guhyatamam, guhyad guhyataram). Krsna says to Arjuna, “Because you are My very dear friend, I am explaining to you the most confidential religion.” Sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja: “Give up all other duties and surrender unto Me.” One may ask, If this principle is very rarely understood, what is the use of it? In answer, Yamaraja states herein that this religious principle is understandable if one follows the parampara system of Lord Brahma, Lord Siva, the four Kumaras, and the other standard authorities. There are four lines of disciplic succession: one from Lord Brahma, one from Lord Siva, one from Laksmi, the goddess of fortune, and one from the Kumaras. The disciplic succession from Lord Brahma is called the Brahma-sampradaya, the succession from Lord Siva (Sambhu) is called the Rudra-sampradaya, the one from the goddess of fortune, Laksmiji, is called the Sri-sampradaya, and the one from the Kumaras is called the Kumara-sampradaya. One must take shelter of one of these four sampradayas in order to understand the most confidential religious system. In the Padma Purana it is said, sampradaya-vihina ye mantras te nisphala matah: if one does not follow the four recognized disciplic successions, his mantra, or initiation, is useless.

At present there are many apasampradayas, or un-bona fide sampradayas, which have no link to authorities like Lord Brahma, Lord Siva, the Kumaras, or Laksmi. People are misguided by such sampradayas. The sastras say that being initiated into such a sampradaya is a waste of time, for it will never enable one to understand real religious principles and surrender to Krsna.

SB 10.2.31 Prayers by the Demigods for Lord Krsna in the Womb

O Lord, who resemble the shining sun, You are always ready to fulfill the desire of Your devotee, and therefore You are known as a desire tree [vancha-kalpataru]. When acaryas completely take shelter under Your lotus feet in order to cross the fierce ocean of nescience, they leave behind on earth the method by which they cross, and because You are very merciful to Your other devotees, You accept this method to help them.

PURPORT

This statement reveals how the merciful acaryas and the merciful Supreme Personality of Godhead together help the serious devotee who wants to return home, back to Godhead. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, in His teachings to Rupa Gosvami, said:

brahmanda bhramite kona bhagyavan jiva
guru-krsna-prasade paya bhakti-lata-bija

(Cc. Madhya 19.151)

One can achieve the seed of bhakti-lata, devotional service, by the mercy of guru and Krsna. The duty of the guru is to find the means, according to the time, the circumstances and the candidate, by which one can be induced to render devotional service, which Krsna accepts from a candidate who wants to be successful in going back home, back to Godhead. After wandering throughout the universe, a fortunate person within this material world seeks shelter of such a guru, or acarya, who trains the devotee in the suitable ways to render service according to the circumstances so that the Supreme Personality of Godhead will accept the service. This makes it easier for the candidate to reach the ultimate destination. The acarya’s duty, therefore, is to find the means by which devotees may render service according to references from sastra. Rupa Gosvami, for example, in order to help subsequent devotees, published such devotional books as Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu. Thus it is the duty of the acarya to publish books that will help future candidates take up the method of service and become eligible to return home, back to Godhead, by the mercy of the Lord. In our Krsna consciousness movement, this same path is being prescribed and followed. Thus the devotees have been advised to refrain from four sinful activities–illicit sex, intoxication, meat-eating and gambling–and to chant sixteen rounds a day. These are bona fide instructions. Because in the Western countries constant chanting is not possible, one should not artificially imitate Haridasa Thakura, but should follow this method. Krsna will accept a devotee who strictly follows the regulative principles and the method prescribed in the various books and literatures published by the authorities. The acarya gives the suitable method for crossing the ocean of nescience by accepting the boat of the Lord’s lotus feet, and if this method is strictly followed, the followers will ultimately reach the destination, by the grace of the Lord. This method is called acarya-sampradaya. It is therefore said, sampradaya-vihina ye mantras te nisphala matah (Padma Purana). The acarya-sampradaya is strictly bona fide. Therefore one must accept the acarya-sampradaya; otherwise one’s endeavor will be futile. Srila Narottama dasa Thakura therefore sings:

tandera carana sevi bhakta sane vasa

janame janame haya, ei abhilasa

One must worship the lotus feet of the acarya and live within the society of devotees. Then one’s endeavor to cross over nescience will surely be successful.

Note: these bogus Anti Ritvik gurus manufactured in ISKCON do not give their disciples the mantra: they only give the alphabet NOT the mantra: only by accepting Srila Prabhupada the BONA FIDE guru and his Ritvik System as per July 9th 1977 Ritvik Order one can have the mantra:

Devotee (3): In regard to worshiping arcā-vigraha form, you have explained that if one receives a mantra from a spiritual master who is not bona fide, that mantra has no effect. So I would like to ask if one is worshiping a Deity and his spiritual master is not bona fide, so that Deity cannot be considered the Supreme Lord?

Prabhupāda: Well, first of all, thing is if the spiritual master is not bona fide, how his mantra can be bona fide? Your statement is contradictory. If you say the spiritual master is not bona fide, then how his mantra becomes bona fide? If he is bona fide, then his mantra is bona fide.

Antya 3.59 T The Glories of Srila Haridasa Thakura

namera aksara-sabera ei ta’ svabhava
vyavahita haile na chade apana-prabhava

SYNONYMS

namera–of the holy name; aksara–letters; sabera–of all; ei–this; ta’–certainly; sva-bhava–the characteristic; vyavahita haile–even when improperly uttered; na–do not; chade–give up; apana-prabhava–their own spiritual influence.

TRANSLATION

“The letters of the holy name have so much spiritual potency that they act even when uttered improperly.

PURPORT

SRILA BHAKTISIDDHANTA SARASVATI THAKURA STATES THAT THE WORD VYAVAHITA (“IMPROPERLY UTTERED”) IS NOT USED HERE TO REFER TO THE MUNDANE VIBRATION OF THE LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET. SUCH NEGLIGENT UTTERANCE FOR THE SENSE GRATIFICATION OF MATERIALISTIC PERSONS IS NOT A VIBRATION OF TRANSCENDENTAL SOUND. Utterance of the holy name while one engages in sense gratification is an impediment on the path toward achieving ecstatic love for Krsna. On the other hand, if one who is eager for devotional service utters the holy name even partially or improperly, the holy name, who is identical with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, exhibits its spiritual potency because of that person’s offenseless utterance. Thus one is relieved from all unwanted practices, and one gradually awakens his dormant love for Krsna.

SB 2.9.8 P Answers by Citing the Lord’ s Version

THE POTENCY OF TRANSCENDENTAL SOUND IS NEVER MINIMIZED BECAUSE THE VIBRATOR IS APPARENTLY ABSENT. Therefore Srimad-Bhagavatam or Bhagavad-gita or any revealed scripture in the world is never to be accepted as an ordinary mundane sound without transcendental potency.

One has to receive the transcendental sound from the right source, accept it as a reality and prosecute the direction without hesitation. The secret of success is to receive the sound from the right source of a bona fide spiritual master. MUNDANE MANUFACTURED SOUND HAS NO POTENCY, AND AS SUCH, SEEMINGLY TRANSCENDENTAL SOUND RECEIVED FROM AN UNAUTHORIZED PERSON ALSO HAS NO POTENCY. One should be qualified enough to discern such transcendental potency, and either by discriminating or by fortunate chance if one is able to receive the transcendental sound from the bona fide spiritual master, his path of liberation is guaranteed. The disciple, however, must be ready to execute the order of the bona fide spiritual master as Lord Brahma executed the instruction of his spiritual master, the Lord Himself. Following the order of the bona fide spiritual master is the only duty of the disciple, and this completely faithful execution of the order of the bona fide spiritual master is the secret of success.

Vaikunthanatha (ACBSP): In 1972, when Prabhupada gave a series of lectures on The Nectar of Devotion for one month in Vrindavan, a thought was plaguing me. When I first joined, I’d been taught that the paramparasystem
is like a chain, and if you’re not initiated, if you’re not linked up to this chain, then you can’t go back to Godhead. I thought, “We’re distributing so many books, but if the people who read them are not initiated, then they can’t go back to Godhead.” So, one day I followed Prabhupada from Rupa Goswami’s samadhi, where he lectured, and just before Prabhupada stepped onto his courtyard, I said, “We’re distributing so many books but if people aren’t initiated, then they can’t go back to Godhead.”
Prabhupada turned, looked at me right in the eyes and said, “JUST BY READING MY BOOKS THEY ARE INITIATED.” I thought, “That is an incredible example of compassion.”

Madhya 25.9 How All the Residents of Varanasi Became Vaisnavas

“In Dvapara-yuga, devotees of Lord Visnu and Krsna rendered devotional service according to the principles of pancaratrika. In this Age of Kali, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is worshiped simply by the chanting of His holy names.» Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura then comments: “WITHOUT BEING EMPOWERED BY THE DIRECT POTENCY OF LORD KRSNA TO FULFILL HIS DESIRE AND WITHOUT BEING SPECIFICALLY FAVORED BY THE LORD, NO HUMAN BEING CAN BECOME THE SPIRITUAL MASTER OF THE WHOLE WORLD. He certainly cannot succeed by mental concoction, which is not meant for devotees or religious people. ONLY AN EMPOWERED PERSONALITY CAN DISTRIBUTE THE HOLY NAME OF THE LORD AND ENJOIN ALL FALLEN SOULS TO WORSHIP KRSNA. BY DISTRIBUTING THE HOLY NAME OF THE LORD, HE CLEANSES THE HEARTS OF THE MOST FALLEN PEOPLE; THEREFORE HE EXTINGUISHES THE BLAZING FIRE OF THE MATERIAL WORLD. Not only that, he broadcasts the shining brightness of Krsna’s effulgence throughout the world. Such an acarya, or spiritual master, should be considered nondifferent from Krsna-that is, he should be considered the incarnation of Lord Krsna’s potency. Such a personality is krsnalingita-vigraha-that is, he is always embraced by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna. Such a person is above the considerations of the varnasrama institution. He is the guru or spiritual master for the entire world, a devotee on the topmost platform, the maha-bhagavata stage, and a paramahamsa-thakura, a spiritual form only fit to be addressed as paramahamsa or thakura.”

Nonetheless, there are many people who are just like owls but never open their eyes to see the sunshine. These owlish personalities are inferior to the Mayavadi sannyasis who cannot see the brilliance of Krsna’s favor. They are prepared to criticize the person engaged in distributing the holy name all over the world and following in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who wanted Krsna consciousness preached in every town and city.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Adi 7.95-96-purport

A person who cannot keep his faith in the words of his spiritual master but acts independently never receives the authority to chant the holy name of the Lord. It is said in the Vedas (Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad 6.23): yasya deve parā bhaktir yathā deve tathā gurau tasyaite kathitā hy arthāḥ prakāśante mahātmanaḥ

“Only unto those great souls who have implicit faith in both the Lord and the spiritual master are all the imports of Vedic knowledge automatically revealed.” This Vedic injunction is very important, and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu supported it by His personal behavior.

====================================

Lectures : SB 1.8: Lectures : Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.8.44 — Los Angeles, May 6, 1973 :

.. So do not think that “We have made such nice, sumptuous plate for Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa must eat.” No. There is no such thing, “must.” You cannot make Kṛṣṇa must. That is not possible. So Kṛṣṇa will see how much you have love for Him. Then He will accept. Otherwise He’ll reject. Therefore, it is forbidden, those who are nondevotee, those who are not initiated, those who are not chanting regularly, their offering to Kṛṣṇa will not be accepted. We must be very careful. We must know our position, whether I am sincerely following the principles of devotional service. Then Kṛṣṇa will accept. Yo me bhaktyā prayacchati. The real thing is bhakti. So either you offer Kṛṣṇa prayers or you offer foodstuff, everything must be along with bhakti, devotion, love. Then Kṛṣṇa will accept.

    Isopanisad 12
    The Lord states that as soon as one reaches Him by devotional service–which is the one and only way to approach the Personality of Godhead–one attains complete freedom from the bondage of birth and death. In other words, the path of salvation from the material clutches fully depends on the principles of knowledge and detachment gained from serving the Lord. The pseudo religionists have neither knowledge nor detachment from material affairs, for most of them want to live in the golden shackles of material bondage under the shadow of philanthropic activities disguised as religious principles. BY A FALSE DISPLAY OF RELIGIOUS SENTIMENTS, THEY PRESENT A SHOW OF DEVOTIONAL SERVICE WHILE INDULGING IN ALL SORTS OF IMMORAL ACTIVITIES. IN THIS WAY THEY PASS AS SPIRITUAL MASTERS AND DEVOTEES OF GOD. Such violators of religious principles have no respect for the authoritative acaryas, the holy teachers in the strict disciplic succession. THEY IGNORE THE VEDIC INJUNCTION ACARYOPASANA–“ONE MUST WORSHIP THE ACARYA”–and Krsna’s statement in the Bhagavad-gita (4.2) evam parampara-praptam, “This supreme science of God is received through the disciplic succession.” INSTEAD, TO MISLEAD THE PEOPLE IN GENERAL THEY THEMSELVES BECOME SO-CALLED ACARYAS, BUT THEY DO NOT EVEN FOLLOW THE PRINCIPLES OF THE ACARYAS.
    THESE ROGUES ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS ELEMENTS IN HUMAN SOCIETY. BECAUSE THERE IS NO RELIGIOUS GOVERNMENT, THEY ESCAPE PUNISHMENT BY THE LAW OF THE STATE. THEY CANNOT, HOWEVER, ESCAPE THE LAW OF THE SUPREME, WHO HAS CLEARLY DECLARED IN THE BHAGAVAD-GITA THAT ENVIOUS DEMONS IN THE GARB OF RELIGIOUS PROPAGANDISTS SHALL BE THROWN INTO THE DARKEST REGIONS OF HELL (BG. 16.19-20). SRI ISOPANISAD CONFIRMS THAT THESE PSEUDO RELIGIONISTS ARE HEADING TOWARD THE MOST OBNOXIOUS PLACE IN THE UNIVERSE AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THEIR SPIRITUAL MASTER BUSINESS, WHICH THEY CONDUCT SIMPLY FOR SENSE GRATIFICATION.

        1) I was told by Nara Narayana Visvakarma Prabhu long time back that TKG went to chop off his manhood in Hong Kong because he wanted everyone to see he was a BIG sannyasi.

        2) TKG was asking Srila Prabhupada questions on Gopies:

        70-05-27. Letter: Tamala Krsna
        Regarding your two questions, the first, Sri Gadadhara is expansion Radharani and Srinivasa is the expansion of Narada Muni, or in other words they are the internal and the devotional energy respectively. The second question, Yes, Rupa Goswami is a Gopi by the name of Rupamanjari, but not all the six Goswamis of Vrndavana are Gopis. The following is a list of some of the principle Gopis, the first eight are called Astasakhi:

        1. Lalita
        2. Visakha
        3. Sucitra
        4. Campaklata

        12. Rasamanjari
        13. Manjumali
        14. Kasturika

        etc. You can sing individually the names of the Gopis, there is no harm, but when we sing the prayer “Sri radha krsna padan sahaguna lalita sri visakhan vitams ca” this includes them all.

          These lying Kabbalist poisoners such as TKG are delusional fantasists and Mayavadis who’s twisted idea of “sannyas” and “gopi bhava” are the reason they create major deviations such as The Gopi Bhava Club and associate with other FTM’s such as Sivarama, Indradyumna, Giriraja, BB Givinda, Puranjana, Radhannath and BV Narayana! These rascals are ALL DELUSIONAL!

          Srila Sachinandana Bhaktivinode Thakur Maharaja is the proper example to understand when it comes to understanding these highly intense devotional mellows as he is Kamala Manjari, an eternal servant of the gopis! ……. NOT A LYING GENDER-BENDING PERVERT!

          NO DOUBT AMONG TKG’S RETARDED FOLLOWERS THERE WILL BE SOME WHO WILL “SEARCH FOR THE HOLY GRAIL” (IN THE BACK ROOM A HONG KONG DOCTORS SURGERY!) ie A GLASS JAR CONTAINING TKG’S PENIS AND TESTICLES SET IN FOLMALDAHYDE! TO BE DISPLAYED IN THE TKG ACADEMY PERHAPS!

          HA! Ha! ….,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.. SOUNDS LIKE A RIGHT LOAD OF BOLLOCKS!

            One has to distinguish FACTS FROM HEARSAY! If you take the time to look into transvestigation you would immediately see the obvious as we live in a world of illusion!

            Americans have the choice between two trannys FTM Trump or MTF Harris! This is because they are feeble, conditioned souls who have been brainwashed like sheep through the ‘tranny cabal media’ to think that either FTM Trump has been chosen by God or that MTF Harris is the humanist, liberal, savoir of the blacks and poor white trash! They are all being ‘set-up’ for a Trump win!

            Both “candidates” are cardboard cutouts and glove puppets of the Satanic Kabbalist Jews as the USA is just a colonial outpost (like Canada, Australia and New Zealand) which has been used by Britain a powerful military force to plunder, pillage and rob the worlds resources and wealth by installing ‘traitorous’ puppet vassals in these countries, leaving the people in these countries in a constant state of poverty, political turmoil and suppression.

            MTF “actress” Aubrey Plaza’s quote that “weirdos rule the world!” is very true, but they also rule ISKCON!

            You are not going to understand the widespread practice GENDER INVERSION because it is symptomatic of this Kali Yuga AND BEGINS AFTER MAHABHARAT, BHAGAVAD GITA, AND SRIMAD BHAGAVATAM WITH THE STORY OF SAMBA (11th Canto). (A SOMBRE MESSAGE OF DESTRUCTION DUE TO THE MOCKING OF THE SAGES!).

            THE VERY INTENSE TRANSCENDENTAL TOPICS OF CHAITANYA CHARITAMRITA ARE TAKING PLACE WITHIN INDIA BUT THE WHOLE WORLD HAS BEEN POISONED BY THIS BABYLONIAN, KABBALIST SATANIC INFLUENCE.

            THIS IS THE VERY SAME DEMONIC INFLUENCE THAT LORD CHAITANYA MAHAPRABHU HAD COME TO DEFEAT, IN THE FORM OF TANTRIC MYSTICISM (WHICH IS BASICALLY THE SAME AS PAGANISM, WICCA, MAGICK, DRUIDISM, OR WORSHIP OF MOLLOCH, SATAN OR BHAPHOMET (LUCIFER).

            IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE LOOK A THIS PERVERSE PRACTICE WHICH HAS INFECTED NOT ONLY THE GAUDIYA MATT AND ISKCON ……. BUT THE WHOLE WORLD!

            WITHOUT THIS BASIC UNDERSTANDING, PERSONS WILL CONTINUE TO BE CHEATED, GASLIGHTED AND EXPLOITED BY THESE CROSS DRESSING PRETENDERS.

            THIS IS NOW BECOMING A WORLD-WIDE EPIDEMIC!

          • Sudarsana Das Vanacari says:

            Point number 2. Mahesh Raja Prabhu, is that FTM TKG and the other bogus FTM Gopi Bhava Club groupies (Puranjana included) became attracted to FTM BV Narayana due to Narayana’s own deviant philosophical ideas of “the 3rd sex”, which was also due to BV Narayana’s own ‘gender inversion!’ and poisonous association with FTM bogus, fake, Vrindavan “babajis”

            BV Narayana had a lifelong association with bogus Vrindavan “babaji’s” the vast majority of which WERE AND ARE ALSO GENDER INVERTED! Many ISKCON FTM “sannyasi’s also like to associate with these poisonous Mayavadi deviants, so this should not be very surprising!

            These Mayavadi’s are deviant pretenders and have a long history of conflict and criticism of ALL THE ACHARYAS OF OUR GURU VARGA! THEY ARE INVERTED DEGENERATE OFFENDERS AND RASCALS OF THE LOWEST ORDER AND SHOULD BE AVOIDED AND COMPLETELY IGNORED AT THE PERIL OF ONES’ OWN DEVOTIONAL CREEPER!

            Gopi bhava is completely void of the bodily platform, is the most intense of devotional moods and has nothing to do with ‘physical gender’ in the material sense! …. This is where the Mayavadi poison infiltrates the mind and manifests a delusional, perverse mentality!

            This is the real truth Mahesh Prabhu! not some ‘second hand’ hearsay! What say ye now?

  2. Pamho agtacbsp, it’s a strange world because of the false ego trapped in the three gunas which make ordinary people blind regarding the real guru as we can see from all the victims of the guru hoax in f-iskcon ,we already got a bad karma by not taking in a vaisnava family and almost all the life is cheated with so many uncomfortable situations to overcome through hidden invisible enemies,so prakasante mahatmanah all the hidden secrets of the holy books get revealed at whoever got strong faith in krsna and real guru because so many followers of the sanatana dharma got cheated in the fake reflection of iskcon by shameless donkey who claimed to be like srila prabhupada but they still reside in the dirty drain of this material world,anyway what can be done? We are trying to wake them up since the disappearance day of srila prabhupada this is called bad karma life is already difficult in this age and the stinky guru hoax make it even more difficulty through cheating because they are under the evil influences of kali.

  3. Mahesh Raja says:

    Note: Anti Ritvik demons are PRETENDERS: they make a SHOW of religion. They actually have no detachment of sense gratification. The TEST of Bhakti is vairagya: detachment from sense gratification.

    720307BG.CAL Lectures
    SO THEREFORE THIS SCIENCE, THE DEVOTIONAL SCIENCE, DEVOTIONAL SERVICE, OR BHAKTI-YOGA, IS RAJA-VIDYA. AUTOMATICALLY. AUTOMATICALLY YOUR SENSES, MIND BECOME CONTROLLED BECAUSE IT IS ENGAGED IN KRSNA; THEREFORE IT IS PURIFIED. AND AS SOON AS IT’S PURIFIED, YOU’LL NOT LIKE TO ENGAGE YOUR SENSES IN ANY OTHER ACTIVITIES. THAT IS THE TASTE OF BHAKTI. BHAKTI…, ONE HAS BECOME BHAKTA, AT THE SAME TIME HE IS VERY MUCH ATTRACTED THIS SENSE GRATIFICATION, THAT IS NOT BHAKTA. Bhakti means bhakti-paresanubhavo: realization of the Transcendence. And what is the test? Viraktir anyatra syat, vairagya. MANY PLACES IT IS STATED, VASUDEVE BHAGAVATI BHAKTI-YOGAH PRAYOJITAH JANAYATY ASU VAIRAGYAM. VAIRAGYAM MEANS NO MORE TASTE FOR SENSE GRATIFICATION. THAT IS CALLED VAIRAGYAM. VIRA, VIGATAH RAGA, NO ATTACHMENT. OUR MATERIAL ATTACHMENT MEANS MATERIAL SENSE GRATIFICATION. THAT IS ATTACHMENT. AND BHAKTI MEANS… BHAKTI… THEREFORE ANOTHER NAME OF BHAKTI IS VAIRAGYA VIDYA.

    741111SB.BOM Lectures
    Therefore this, to develop this detachment… Bhakti, bhakti-yoga, or the path of bhakti, means detachment. Bhakti, they are… That is vairagya-vidya-nija-bhakti-yogam. Bhakti-yogam means vairagya-vidya, the learning in the science of detachment. That is bhakti-yoga. Vairagya-vidya-nija-bhakti-yogam. This verse was composed by Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya. When he understood Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, he composed one hundred verses. He was a very learned logician of India, Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya. So some of the verses are available. Because when the verses were offered to Caitanya Mahaprabhu, He torn it and… Because He was a sannyasi. That was His another vairagya. Anyway… So this verse is that “You are, Sir, Caitanya Mahaprabhu, You are the same Krsna. You formerly came to teach people this vairagya.” Sarva-dharman parityajya. This parityajya means vairagya. “Don’t care for all this material world. Surrender unto Me.” This is vairagya. Jnana and vairagya. Vasudeve bhagavati bhakti-yogah prayojitah. BHAKTI-YOGAH PRAYOJITAH. IF YOU APPLY BHAKTI-YOGA TO VASUDEVA–VASUDEVAH SARVAM ITI–ON THIS PLATFORM, THEN JANAYATY ASU VAIRAGYAM. ASU, “VERY SOON.” THIS IS THE SIGN OF BHAKTI-YOGA. JANAYATY ASU. IF A PERSON IS ADVANCING IN BHAKTI-YOGA, THE RESULT WILL BE THAT HE IS DETACHED FROM MATERIAL ATTRACTION. THAT IS THE SIGN.

    Note: the demonaic, instead of accepting Srila Prabhupada as Diksa Guru as per his Direct Ritvik Order July 9th 1977, accepting that all the disciples so initiated are Srila Prabhupada’s they themselves unauthorisedly occupied Diksa guru position: THEY DESIRE TO BE WORSHIPED BY OTHERS, AND DEMAND RESPECTABILITY, ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT COMMAND RESPECT. THE DEMONIAC WANT TO MAKE A SHOW OF RELIGION AND ADVANCEMENT IN SPIRITUAL SCIENCE, ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THE PRINCIPLES.

    Bg 16.4 T The Divine And Demoniac Natures

    dambho darpo ‘bhimanas ca
    krodhah parusyam eva ca
    ajnanam cabhijatasya
    partha sampadam asurim

    SYNONYMS
    dambhah–pride; darpah–arrogance; abhimanah–conceit; ca–and; krodhah–anger; parusyam–harshness; eva–certainly; ca–and; ajnanam–ignorance; ca–and; abhijatasya–one who is born of; partha–O son of Prtha; sampadam–nature; asurim–demoniac.

    TRANSLATION
    ARROGANCE, pride, anger, conceit, harshness and ignorance–these qualities belong to those of demoniac nature, O son of Prtha.

    PURPORT
    IN THIS VERSE, THE ROYAL ROAD TO HELL IS DESCRIBED. THE DEMONIAC WANT TO MAKE A SHOW OF RELIGION AND ADVANCEMENT IN SPIRITUAL SCIENCE, ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THE PRINCIPLES. They are always arrogant or proud in possessing some type of education or so much wealth. THEY DESIRE TO BE WORSHIPED BY OTHERS, AND DEMAND RESPECTABILITY, ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT COMMAND RESPECT. Over trifles they become very angry and speak harshly, not gently. THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT SHOULD BE DONE AND WHAT SHOULD NOT BE DONE. THEY DO EVERYTHING WHIMSICALLY, ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN DESIRE, AND THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE ANY AUTHORITY. These demoniac qualities are taken on by them from the beginning of their bodies in the wombs of their mothers, and as they grow they manifest all these inauspicious qualities.

  4. Sudarsana Das Vanacari says:

    The vast majority of ‘fake gurus’ were initiated through the ritvik system (prior to the physical departure of Srila Prabhupada!) so by labelling them ‘anti-ritvik’ is meaningless! Also them labelling us ‘ritviks’ is also meaningless! I was not personally initiated by ritvik but by bogus gurus (in their presence!) so how does that make me a ritvik? The real point is that genuine devotional aspirants are …………….

    BEING REPLACED BY ANDROGYNE, TRANSGENDERS! THESE TRANSGENDERED “DISCIPLES” ARE ALL PART OF THE TRANSGENDERED AND TRANSHUMAN CABAL SO THEY FIT RIGHT INTO THE IDEA OF ACCEPTING A TRANSGENDERED “FAKE GURU”, A TRANSGENDERED GBC, A TRANSGENDERED SABHA, AND ALL SET TO MUSIC BY TRANSGENDERED KIRTANEERS!

    THERE ARE ‘WHOLE FAMILIES OF GENERATIONAL MASONIC GENDER-BENDERS JOINING ISKCON AS THEY EFFORTLESSLY ARE GIVEN PRIORITY, POSITIONS AND AUTHORITY, DUE TO THEIR LONG FAMILY HISTORY OF FREEMASONIC GENDER-INVERSION GOING BACK CENTURIES OR MILLENNIA AT THE BEGINNING OF THE KALI YUGA AND THE BABYLONIAN EMPIRE (SUMMERIAN, AKKHADIAN).

    FTM RABBI RADHANNATH AND IT’S FTM DISCIPLE RECENTLY ATTENDED THE AMBANI ‘GENDER-INVERTED’ WEDDING OF FTM ASANT AMBANI AND MTF RADHA MERCHANT, TOGETHER WITH A ‘WHO’S WHO’ OF SATANIC, BAPHOMET BENDERS SUCH AS FTM TONY (MIRANDA) BLAIR, THE MTF ARMENIAN KARDASHIAN WITCHES, MTF ‘CASTRATO DIVA’ RHIANNA ETC ETC. THESE TRANNY CLOWNS ARE MOCKING OUR WHOLE SAMPRADAYA WITH THEIR SATANIC BUFFOONERY!

    IT IS A REFLECTION OF A ‘GLOBALIST NWO PLOT’ TO EMPOWER THE MASONIC TRANSGENDERED ELITES THROUGH DNA AND GMO ALTERING VACCINES, GENDER-ALTERING ATRAZINE ADDED TO FOOD SUPPLY (SUCH AS “LUNCHES” IN SCHOOLS, POISONING FOOD WITH CHITIN TO CAUSE PREMATURE DEATH AND/OR LIFELONG SERIOUS HEALTH DAMAGE (AKSHAYA PATRA) AND PROMOTING THE TRANSHUMAN AND TRANSGENDERED AGENDA, ESPECIALLY TO TODDLERS AND YOUTH!

    JUST AS THE “TRANNY LAST SUPPER” MOCKERY OF LORD JESUS CHRIST AT THE PARIS OLYMPIC GAMES, THESE ISKCON GENDER-BENDER FAKES, TAKE EVERY OPPORTUNITY THEY CAN TO MOCK SRILA PRABHUPADA, AND THE REAL VAISNAVA COMMUNITY MANY OF WHOM HAVE NOT A CLUE ABOUT GENDER INVERSION, AND THE FACT THAT JUST LIKE ON THE WORLD STAGE THE SATANIC, BAPHOMET-BENDERS ARE ‘REPLACING ALL THE WORLD’S RELIIGIOUS COUNTRIES’ WITH SATANISTS, KABBALISTS, TRANSHUMANS AND TRANSGENDERS!

      Dear Maharajas and Prabhus,
      Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet. Recently when all of the GBC members were with His Divine Grace in Vrndavana, SRILA PRABHUPADA INDICATED THAT SOON HE WOULD APPOINT SOME OF HIS SENIOR DISCIPLES TO ACT AS “RITVIK–REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ACARYA, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PERFORMING INITIATIONS, BOTH FIRST INITIATION AND SECOND INITIATION. His Divine Grace has so far given a list of eleven disciples who will act in that capacity:

      His Holiness Kirtanananda Swami
      His Holiness Satsvarupa dasa Gosvami
      His Holiness Jayapataka Swami
      His Holiness Tamala Krsna Gosvami

      His Holiness Ramesvara Swami
      His Holiness Harikesa Swami
      His Grace Bhagavan dasa Adhikari
      His Grace Jayatirtha dasa Adhikari

      In the past Temple Presidents have written to Srila Prabhupada recommending a particular devotee’s initiation. Now that Srila Prabhupada has named these representatives, Temple Presidents may henceforward send recommendation for first and second initiation to whichever of these eleven representatives ARE NEAREST THEIR TEMPLE. AFTER CONSIDERING THE RECOMMENDATION, THESE REPRESENTATIVES MAY ACCEPT THE DEVOTEE AS AN INITIATED DISCIPLE OF SRILA PRABHUPADA BY GIVING A SPIRITUAL NAME, OR IN THE CASE OF SECOND INITIATION, BY CHANTING ON THE GAYATRI THREAD, JUST AS SRILA PRABHUPADA HAS DONE. THE NEWLY INITIATED DEVOTEES ARE DISCIPLES OF HIS DIVINE GRACE A.C. BHAKTIVEDANTA SWAMI PRABHUPAD, the above eleven senior devotees ACTING AS HIS REPRESENTATIVE. After the Temple President receives a letter from these representatives giving the spiritual name or the thread, he can perform the fire yajna in the temple as was being done before. The name of a newly initiated disciple should be sent by the representative who has accepted him or her to Srila Prabhupada, to be included in His Divine Grace’s “Initiated Disciples” book

      TRANSLATION
      In the performance of a sacrifice, there are seven transcendental means to obtain the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead: (1) by sacrificing valuable things or eatables, (2) by acting in terms of place, (3) by acting in terms of time, (4) by offering hymns, (5) by going through the priest, (6) by offering gifts to the priests and (7) by observing the regulative principles. However, one cannot always obtain the Supreme Lord through this paraphernalia. Nonetheless, the Lord is affectionate to His devotee; therefore when Maharaja Nabhi, who was a devotee, worshiped and offered prayers to the Lord with great faith and devotion and with a pure uncontaminated mind, superficially performing some yajna in the line of pravargya, the kind Supreme Personality of Godhead, due to His affection for His devotees, appeared before King Nabhi in His unconquerable and captivating form with four hands. In this way, to fulfill the desire of His devotee, the Supreme Personality of Godhead manifested Himself in His beautiful body before His devotee. This body pleases the mind and eyes of the devotees.

Around the lower portion of His body, He wore a yellow silken garment. On His chest was the mark of Srivatsa, which always displays beauty. He carried a conchshell, lotus flower, disc and club, and He wore a garland of forest flowers and the Kaustubha gem. He was beautifully decorated with a helmet, earrings, bangles, belt, pearl necklace, armlets, ankle bells and other bodily ornaments bedecked with radiant jewels. Seeing the Lord present before them, King Nabhi and his priests and associates felt just like poor people who have suddenly attained great riches. They received the Lord and respectfully bent their heads and offered Him things in worship.

      Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet. Recently when all of the GBC members were with His Divine Grace in Vrndavana, Srila Prabhupada indicated that soon He would appoint some of His senior disciples to act as “RITVIK–REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ACARYA, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PERFORMING INITIATIONS, BOTH FIRST INITIATION AND SECOND INITIATION.

      Satsvarupa: Srila Prabhupada, we were all asked by the rest of the GBC to come to ask some questions. Most… These are the members of the original GBC as you first made it up. So our first question is about the GBC members. We want to know how long should they remain in office?
      Prabhupada: They should remain for good.
      Tamala Krsna: They should remain for good.
      Prabhupada: Selected men are chosen, so they cannot be changed. Rather, if some competent man comes, he should be added. I shall recommend that Vasudeva become one of the GBC.
      Tamala Krsna: Vasudeva is Deoji Punja. He’s the founder of our… He’s building the temple in Fiji.
      Prabhupada: How many GBC’s are there already?
      Tamala Krsna: Twenty-three.
      Prabhupada: So add him. GBC is not to be changed.
      Satsvarupa: But then, in the event that some present GBC member leaves, either leaves…
      Prabhupada: Another should be elected.
      Satsvarupa: By the votes of the present GBC. Then our next question concerns initiations in the future, particularly at that time when you’re no longer with us. We want to know how first and second initiation would be conducted.
      Prabhupada: Yes. I shall recommend some of you. After this is settled up, I shall recommend some of you to act as officiating acaryas.
      Tamala Krsna: Is that called rtvik-acarya?
      Prabhupada: RTVIK, YES.
      Satsvarupa: Then what is the relationship of that person who gives the initiation and the…
      Prabhupada: He’s guru. He’s guru.
      Satsvarupa: But he does it on your behalf.
      Prabhupada: Yes. That is formality. Because in my presence one should not become guru, so on my behalf, on my order… Amara ajnaya guru hana. Be actually guru, but by my order.
      Satsvarupa: So they may also be considered your disciples.
      Prabhupada: Yes, they are disciples. Why consider? Who?
      Tamala Krsna: No, he’s asking that these rtvik-acaryas, they’re officiating, giving diksa. Their… The people who they give diksa to, whose disciple are they?
      Prabhupada: They’re his disciple.
      Tamala Krsna: They’re his disciple.
      Prabhupada: Who is initiating. He is granddisciple.
      Satsvarupa: Yes.
      Tamala Krsna: That’s clear.
      Satsvarupa: Then we have a question concer…
      Prabhupada: When I order, “You become guru,” he becomes regular guru. That’s all. He becomes disciple of my disciple. That’s it

      ================================

      The Ritvik System July 9th 1977 Order is set out by Srila Prabhupada of how he wanted this continued: Srila Prabhupada stated specifically in his WILL:..”PROVIDED THE NEW DIRECTOR is MY INITIATED DISCIPLE following strictly all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my books”

      “The executive directors who have herein been designated are appointed for life. In the event of death or failure to act for any reason of any of the said directors, a successor director or directors may be appointed by the remaining directors, PROVIDED THE NEW DIRECTOR is MY INITIATED DISCIPLE following strictly all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my books, and provided that there are never less than three (3) or more than five (5) exeutive directors acting at one time.”

      Note: if they do not follow the WILL then HOW will they continue in future????
      They can NOT disregard the WILL which clearly states: PROVIDED THE NEW DIRECTOR is MY INITIATED DISCIPLE following strictly all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my books.

      Note: Ritvik System is a System of management:… “THE SYSTEM OF MANAGEMENT WILL CONTINUE AS IT IS NOW AND THERE IS NO NEED OF ANY CHANGE. ”

      2. Each temple will be an ISKCON property and will be managed by three executive directors. THE SYSTEM OF MANAGEMENT WILL CONTINUE AS IT IS NOW AND THERE IS NO NEED OF ANY CHANGE.

      Prabhupada: Don’t fight amongst yourselves. I HAVE GIVEN THE EXPLANATION, MY WILL. EXECUTE LIKE THAT.
      Tamala Krsna: Yes, Srila Prabhupada.

    • Mahesh Raja says:

      Sudarsana Das Vanacari: I was not personally initiated by ritvik but by bogus gurus (in their presence!) so how does that make me a ritvik?

      Mahesh: Are you a PRIEST???? Ritvik is ACTUALLY a PRIEST. PRIESTS(Ritviks) were ALWAYS used in the VEDIC society FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS check out the Srimad Bhagavatam. Srila Prabhupada created the brahmanas ( giving 2nd initiations gayatri mantra). Brahmanas are PRIESTS for the functionality of guiding the society. Initiations BOTH first and second were being performed by PRIESTS (Brahmanas) on BEHALF OF SRILA PRABHUPADA – THIS – WAS THEN FORMALISED in WRITING July 9th1977 Order: hence the titles Ritvik Representatives of the Acarya (Srila Prabhupada):

      77-07-09.All Letter: All G.B.C., All Temple Presidents
      Letter: All G.B.C., All Temple Presidents
      Dear Maharajas and Prabhus,
      Please accept my humble obeisances at your feet. Recently when all of the GBC members were with His Divine Grace in Vrndavana, SRILA PRABHUPADA INDICATED THAT SOON HE WOULD APPOINT SOME OF HIS SENIOR DISCIPLES TO ACT AS “RITVIK–REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ACARYA, FOR THE PURPOSE OF PERFORMING INITIATIONS, BOTH FIRST INITIATION AND SECOND INITIATION. His Divine Grace has so far given a list of eleven disciples who will act in that capacity:

      His Holiness Kirtanananda Swami
      His Holiness Satsvarupa dasa Gosvami
      His Holiness Jayapataka Swami
      His Holiness Tamala Krsna Gosvami
      His Holiness Hrdayananda Gosvami
      His Holiness Bhavananda Gosvami
      His Holiness Hamsaduta Swami
      His Holiness Ramesvara Swami
      His Holiness Harikesa Swami
      His Grace Bhagavan dasa Adhikari
      His Grace Jayatirtha dasa Adhikari

      In the past Temple Presidents have written to Srila Prabhupada recommending a particular devotee’s initiation. Now that Srila Prabhupada has named these representatives, Temple Presidents may henceforward send recommendation for first and second initiation to whichever of these eleven representatives ARE NEAREST THEIR TEMPLE. AFTER CONSIDERING THE RECOMMENDATION, THESE REPRESENTATIVES MAY ACCEPT THE DEVOTEE AS AN INITIATED DISCIPLE OF SRILA PRABHUPADA BY GIVING A SPIRITUAL NAME, OR IN THE CASE OF SECOND INITIATION, BY CHANTING ON THE GAYATRI THREAD, JUST AS SRILA PRABHUPADA HAS DONE. THE NEWLY INITIATED DEVOTEES ARE DISCIPLES OF HIS DIVINE GRACE A.C. BHAKTIVEDANTA SWAMI PRABHUPAD, the above eleven senior devotees ACTING AS HIS REPRESENTATIVE. After the Temple President receives a letter from these representatives giving the spiritual name or the thread, he can perform the fire yajna in the temple as was being done before. The name of a newly initiated disciple should be sent by the representative who has accepted him or her to Srila Prabhupada, to be included in His Divine Grace’s “Initiated Disciples” book

      ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

      Note: the CROOKS want to give Srila Prabhupada’s July 9th 1977 Ritvik System followers a bad name. HOWEVER the FACT IS the RITVIK SYSTEM is about those who accept that Srila Prabhupada IS the CURRENT INITIATING GURU as per HIS ORDER July 9th1977— and—- ALL the disciples THEREFORE ARE INITIATED ON SRILA PRABHUPADA’S BEHALF— AND— are Srila Prabhupada’s disciples.

      +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

  5. Sudarsana Das Vanacari says:

    Mahesh: You obviously have problem in comprehanding the issue. Let me make it simple for you to understand: Are these fake gurus for OR against Srila Prabhupada’s Ritvik Order July 9th 1977 that Srila Prabhupada REMAIN as DIKSA GURU and all the disciples so initiated are HIS?????

    ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

    I am fully comprehanding (comprehending) your condescending question regarding the issue in question!

    THEY ARE AGAINST EVERY IMPORTANT ORDER OF SRILA PRABHUPADA, (NOT JUST THE RITVIK ORDER!) BUT THIS IS BECAUSE THEY ARE DEMONS! MANY “PRO-RITVIKS” ARE ALSO DEMONS AND USE THE “PRO-RITVIK” LABEL TO LEGITAMIZE THEIR GRANDIOSE SCHEMES FOR POWER AND PRESTIGE, TO LINE THEIR OWN POCKETS AND PROMOTE GMO, CHITIN (INSECTS) AND POSSIBLY ATRAZINE LADEN RUBBISH FOOD ON BEHALF OF “FOOD PROGRAMS” WHICH HAVE BEEN PART OF A WORLDWIDE DEATH CULT PROGRAM FOR DECADES, WHICH IS ONE ASPECT OF A WIDER GLOBALIST DE-POPULATION OF THE EARTH WITH THE USE OF POISON FOOD, WATER, AIR (CHEMTRAILS), CO2 CLIMATE CHANGE PSYOPS (GEO-ENGINEERING), FAKE PANDEMICS AND DEADLY (VAX666INE) MILITARY BIO-WEAPONS CREATED TO DESTROY HUMANITY.

    Real ‘initiation’ comes straight from the heart, whereas fire ceremony is a symbolic formality.
