Yes, you are right. I was lazy at typing. No excuse. I should say Srila

Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati and Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura.

Yes, it can be interpreted like that. But so can be "Srila prabhupada's

Teachings". Alse we can say that "teachings" is one thing, but "siddhanta"

(conclusion) is another.

 

I'd say, in the end we have to decide for some name. So why not take the

name, that was kindly sugested by Hari Sauri Prabhu. I think we cannot go

wrong with that.
