RE: ISKCON is saving the world, Krishna Kant. Either join us or get

February 1, 2005

Dear Sankarsana Prabhu

With regard to Krishnakant Prabhu you say:

>apologize for your multitudinous offenses and become a

>surrendered member of the ISKCON team. Now you are trying

>to destroy ISKCON. We shudder to think of how angry Srila

>Prabhupada is with you right now.

Yet one year ago, on this forum, you stated:

"I'd like to thank Krishna Kant and the all the IRM devotees for

challenging us to ever more scrutinizingly analyze the instructions of

our most beloved Founder-Acharya to make sure we are fully aligned with

his instructions. To always remain introspective when one is on the

pathway of spiritual enlightenment is of the utmost importance. Our

dear IRM compatriots have certainly greatly facilitated us in this regard.

It's especially nice that Krishna Kant has agreed to join our

discussion. He is no doubt one of the most powerful spiritual leaders on the

planet

today. His direct participation will certainly make our discussion far more

fruitful. Krishna Kant and I have had such a long-standing correspondence

relationship that he has become for me just like an old friend. I have no

doubt

learned a lot about proper Vaisnava dealings through my association with

him, and I

feel that I can continue to grow as a Vaisnava through my association with

him. Even though he and I stand on two sides of an issue we stand united in

our desire to serve and please Srila Prabhupada. This is why in spite of

our differences I consider his association to be a great blessing. If he

and I were physically in same room right now I would give him a warm hug."

Would you like to explain how "one of the most powerful spiritual leaders on

the planet", from whom you have "no doubt

learned a lot about proper Vaisnava dealings", through whose association you

feel you can "continue to grow as a Vaisnava", with whom you stand "united

in our desire to serve and please Srila Prabhupada", and whose association

you consider to be "a great blessing", can simultaneously be a

"multitudinous offender", someone who is "trying to destroy ISKCON" and with

whom Srila Prabhupada is "angry"?
