Re: Big thanks to Rocana Prabhu!...Right!!!!
Hello Gaurakishora prabhu, PAMHO AGTSP Hare Krishna.
Prabhu - the bulk of the men in this forum are interested only in solving the 3 primary issues that concern the local implementation of Srila Prabhupada's mission.
That is it.
Once Srila Prabhupada's careful arrangements ensuring the above - are fully implemented - all misrepresentation of Srila Prabhupada and our Parampara are easily identified and eliminated as any such threat to any local temple's efforts to preach in its jurisdiction.
Issue #1 is resolved (in principle) by carefully reading the following facts as I presented them last week. This article is posted on www.bhaktivedantas.com entitled "Recognizing and Respecting the Spiritual Master Srila Prabhupada and His Expansion" Praghosa das - Jun 17, 2009, Realigning ISKCON with Srila Prabhupada's directives.
Issues #2 & 3 are resolved with a careful reading of the powers and disabilities assigned all officers of ISKCON by Srila Prabhupada. These "powers and disabilities" are set down in the Directives provided by Srila Prabhupada - and the stated directions Srila Prabhupada issued from 1970 to 1977- in various GBC meetings, room conversations and letters to his leaders - that all serve to provide further illumination on the matter of practical implementation of his Directives.
This "praise" you offer to the staff of the Sun website - is without merit of any kind.
Rocan Das has no interest in anything other than fostering false inconclusive debates.
Disciples do not "debate" which order of their Guru they will follow and which they will ignore. This has always been Rocan's purpose - exclusively. He is 100000%%%% opposed to anyone who will expose the defects in HIS thesis, summarized as: Srila Prabhupada left no arrangement for his mission in the matter of formal initiation or management. Essentially - He left it to chance.
Distracting the cyber space devotee world with such nonsensical discussions about the ethnic background of anyone who misrepresents Srila Prabhupada's wishes - misses the point completely.
WHAT is the crime being perpetrated and HOW it is being permitted to persist - IS THE ONLY PROBLEM facing any legitimate society.
What is the race or religion of the criminal is not relevant - if such consideration does nothing to deny ALL CRIMINALS - THE MEANS to continue their criminal actions - be it murder or larceny. All crime is simple encroachment; upon the person or property of another.
All refusal to implement the self-evident DIRECTIVES of Srila Prabhupada - and all attempts to represent the purpose of anyone other than HDG as the purpose of ISKCON - is criminal encroachment.
This "criminal encroachment" that has replaced legitimate representation of Srila Prabhupada - in all its various manifestations - should be recognized as the single issue that has always faced us within ISKCON.
WE fix that - we fix it all.
Stay focused. Keep our eye on the ball. Hit it on the sweet spot only: ISSUES #1 - 2 AND 3 ONLY.
When these are properly adjusted - all our LOCAL EFFORTS will be without any impediment whatsoever and we will have nothing to stop us - but our own laziness.
Srila Prabhupada said "There is a brahmana - on every block"!
Let us fix the above and then find em!
YS,
Praghosa
