Guest guest Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 My Dear Prabhupadanugas, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. It's actually laughable how absurd this rivik philosophy is. Recently a ritivk sympathizer was giving Srimad Bhagavatam class in a major ISKCON temple. In the purport Srila Prabhupada was saying that we should only hear from a pure devotee. So this devotee told us that we should only hear from Srila Prabhuapda and no one else. But wait a minute! Why should we hear from him? If he really believes that we should only hear from Srila Prabhupada then why is he speaking? I was in Los Angeles when Srila Prabhupada had one of his disciples give the class while Srila Prabhupada sat and heard the class. So it is obvious that in the context of Srila Prabhupada's instruction that we should only hear from a pure devotee, that someone who is strictly following Srila Prabhupada and repeating his instructions without adulteration (as the ritviks do NOT) can be accepted as a pure devotee. Hoping this meets you well, Your eternal servant in the dust of your feet, Sankarshan Das Adhikari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
