Dear Yaduraja Prabhu, PAMHO. AGTSP!

I did not write that these two statements are different in meaning. You

explained that they mean the same, and I accept your explanation.

 

But by "stop being the diksa-guru for ISKCON" I did not mean "stop being the

sole diksa-guru for ISKCON". So you understood something else than what I

meant.

 

Therefore I repeat my question:

 

By looking at the grammar, the meaning of the words, etc. you concluded some

meaning of my statement. But this is not what I meant. You misunderstood me.

You did a similar thing with Srila Prabhupada's statements. So what is the

guarantee that you correctly understood Srila Prabhupada?

 

Is this question so difficult to answer?
