Dear Yaduraja Prabhu, PAMHO. AGTSP!

No.

 

"Someone or something established Srila Prabhupada as the sole initiator for

ISKCON" is also unproven. To conclude that from "Srila Prabhupada was the

sole initiator" would be the same logical fallacy (non sequitur) because

there is at least one other possible reason why Srila Prabhupada was the

sole initiator for ISKCON, namely because he is the Founder Acarya of ISKCON

and it is not the etiquette that a disciples initiates his own disciples

while his guru is still present.

 

Note: By "initiator" I mean "diksa-guru initiating his own disciples".
