Neither 1) nor 2) is my position because I cannot read Srila Prabhupada's

mind.

 

Can't you produce a proof of your stated position without my help, without

asking questions? Don't expect any help from me. Your proof should be

independent of my position.

 

 

Here is again your stated position and my challenge:

 

On Nov 16, 2005 you wrote:

 

"Srila Prabhupada set himself up, deliberately, in the position of the sole

diksa guru for ISKCON in 1966."

 

According to your latest explanations, this describes an outcome, not how he

did it. Therefore the word "deliberately" refers to the outcome (to be the

sole diksa guru for ISKCON). So please present some evidence that in 1966

Srila Prabhupada wanted to be the SOLE diksa guru for ISKCON (the deliberate

outcome described by your statement), or admit that your statement is

unproven. (Please note the emphasis on "SOLE").

Sadhu! Sadhu!
