The point is, if ISKCON is defined by Srila Prabhupada's teachings, then

ISKCON devotees MUST be ready to be lead by unified understanding. We MUST

agree on something, otherwise we don't agree on anything, and then where is

our ISKCON, if everybody has his own opinion?

 

GBC takes on responsibility of guiding ISKCON. ISKCON members MUST agree

with GBC Laws, and GBC MUST take care, that their laws are followed. This

will empower GBC, to correct mistakes in laws, which will be beneficial for

whole ISKCON society.

 

Untill GBC Law is accepted as Unified Law for ISKCON, there is no real

support for GBC, and they are just busy doing things, that nobody cares

about anyway. This is not empowering position, and leader cannot function

properly in such compromised position.

 

First GBC needs to find ways for ISKCON to follow its laws, then they need

to be open for feedback from society and adjust problematic laws. There must

be some bi-directional, open comunication between leaders and followers, and

thats the case also for GBC as highest leadership body of ISKCON. Untill

nobody can tell them what he needs, nobody will follow what they want. And

thus GBC will maintain leadership of organization, which doesn't care about

its own leadership. Thus leadership is practice moved apart from GBC, and

instead performed on carismatic local level. And then there is no ISKCON in

reality, ISKCON just becomes a label, just a common denomination for all

different local carismatic moods. But thats very similar to Gaudiya-math,

isn't it? So where is then the success of ISKCON collective managment?
