SRIDHARA MAHARAJA IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DISOBEYING THIS ORDER OF GURU MAHARAJA

 

In the following letter Srila Prabhupada gives a HUGE amount of information.

1) Notice how he gives Sridhara Maharaja –credit—for ONLY--- HE

EXECUTES THE REGULATIVE PRINCIPLES—so we can understand Sridhara Maharaja

was NOT on prema bhakti level---this is why Srila Prabhupada again says AMONGST

MY GODBROTHERS NO ONE IS QUALIFIED TO BECOME ACARYA. How can a person disobey

the Guru and become Guru?

 

2) Srila Prabhupada KNEW the mentality of his “disciples” FULLY

well—this is why he says THEREFORE WE MAY NOT COMMIT THE SAME MISTAKE IN

OUR ISKCON CAMP—they all had the same ACARYA disease. As a Representative

of the Supersoul –he could FULLY understand their desire to be worshipped

as ACARYA---but as the

Bhagavad–Gita says from lust rises anger then memory is bewildered then

–intelligence is lost----so they went to the extent of poisoning Srila

Prabhupada---to grab the “ACARYA” disease.

You are right about Sridhara Maharaja's genuineness. But in my opinion he is

the best of the lot. He is my old friend, AT LEAST HE EXECUTES THE REGULATIVE

PRINCIPLES OF DEVOTIONAL SERVICE. I do not wish to discuss about activities of

my Godbrothers but it is a fact they have no life for preaching work. All are

satisfied with a place for residence in the name of a temple, they engage

disciples to get foodstuff by transcendental devices and eat and sleep. They

have no idea or brain how to broacast the cult of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. My

Guru Maharaja used to lament many times for this reason and he thought if one

man at least had understood the principle of preaching then his mission would

achieve success. In the latter days of my Guru Maharaja he was very disgusted.

Actually, he left this world earlier, otherwise he would have continued to live

for more years. Still he requested his disciples to form a strong Governing body

for preaching the cult of Caitanya Mahaprabhu. HE NEVER RECOMMENDED ANYONE TO BE

ACARYA OF THE GAUDIYA MATH. BUT SRIDHARA MAHARAJA IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DISOBEYING

THIS ORDER OF GURU MAHARAJA, AND HE AND OTHERS WHO ARE ALREADY DEAD

UNNECESSARILY THOUGHT THAT THERE MUST BE ONE ACARYA. If Guru Maharaja could

have seen someone who was qualified at that time to be acarya he would have

mentioned. Because on the night before he passed away he talked of so many

things, but never mentioned an acarya. His idea was acarya was not to be

nominated amongst the governing body. He said openly you make a GBC and conduct

the mission. So his idea was amongst the members of GBC who would come out

successful and self effulgent acarya would be automatically selected. So

Sridhara Maharaja and his two associate gentlemen unauthorizedly selected one

acarya and later it proved a failure. THE RESULT IS NOW EVERYONE IS CLAIMING TO

BE ACARYA EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY BE KANISTHA ADHIKARI WITH NO ABILITY TO PREACH.

IN SOME OF THE CAMPS THE ACARYA IS BEING CHANGED THREE TIMES A YEAR. THEREFORE

WE MAY NOT COMMIT THE SAME MISTAKE IN OUR ISKCON CAMP. ACTUALLY AMONGST MY

GODBROTHERS NO ONE IS QUALIFIED TO BECOME ACARYA. SO IT IS BETTER NOT TO MIX

WITH MY GODBROTHERS VERY INTIMATELY BECAUSE INSTEAD OF INSPIRING OUR STUDENTS

AND DISCIPLES THEY MAY SOMETIMES POLLUTE THEM. This attempt was made previously

by them, especially Madhava Maharaja and Tirtha Maharaja and Bon Maharaja but

somehow or other I saved the situation. This is going on. We shall be very

careful about them and not mix with them. This is my instruction to you all.

They cannot help us in our movement, but they are very competent to harm our

natural progress. So we must be very careful about them.
