Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Dear Giri-nayaka Prabhu, my obeisances. Could you send me the reference 10023747? I tried to download it, but for some reason are not allowed to download it. Since you did not really get into my question about Srila Prabhupada understanding of the moon, and how we should understand that, I will try to comment on this letter concerning Hitler. However I prefer we start with the moon, since it is more simpler to understand. The `Hitler` topic is quit complicated. One of the things one has to take into consideration is that India was under British rule. Inderectly it put India with Germany since they had a common enemy. It seems obvious to me that newspapers in India would write favourable things about Hitler. We should also understand that factually Ghandi did not make India independent, but Prabhupada`s school friend (I forgot his name). According to Prabhupada, and I assume one can confirm this in regular history books, his friend was at the border and made a deal with the germans (or vice versa) that any Indian prisoners made by the germans (remember that the British made an artificial famine in Calcutta to recruit Indian poeple for the army) would be handed over to him. When the war was over thsi man had an whole army with trained soldiers waiting at the border to take over India. Subsequently the British realized that they where fighting a loosing battle and gradually gave up India (at least artificially or appearantly). On the recent topic, it seems true that there is new information that Hitler did indeed have the a-bomb. However this is not 100% confirmed. I would like to draw your attention back to the topic at hand: How to understand Prabhupada`s position as a shakte avesa avatara? I do not like to get into the whole world politics now, and hopefully it will suffice here that the Americans and the Germans are not much different, and are being guided by the same dark forces. However, Americans have never directly and openly tortured, murdered, gased etc 6,000,000 jews (and others also)....In that context it seem a little strange (to say the least) to say that Hitler was a gentleman.....

Dear Yugala Kisor Prabhu. pamho. agtSP. I read the letter an didn't undesrtand words of BVMS in a way, that he wants to present Prabhupada as nazi sympathizer. To me it was obvious, that BVMS is ecstatic, because words of SP got confirmed. Prabhupada said, that Hitler had bomb, but didn't use it. But modern belief was, that Hitler made plans, but was far from any success. Thus public belief was contradictory to Prabhupada's statement. Now finally Prabhupada is again proven to be correct. ys gnd ============ Year after year many books are published for public reading regarding Hitler's killing thousands of Jews in confinement. But no one is researching who killed Hitler and who created such a gigantic killer of human beings. The devotees of the Lord are not much interested in the study of the flickering history of the world. They are interested only in Him who is the original creator, maintainer and annihilator. That is the purpose of the Krsna consciousness movement. >>> Ref. VedaBase => SB 4.11.19 ============= And here is some more points for preaching to "saintly" americans, who feel, that, tha Hitler was the biggest agressor in the world. Please take into consideration, tha nowadays many people consider americans to be far bigger agressors that Hitler or Stalin or whoever. It's just that americans do same crazy things in the name o peace. But thats even worse. Prabhupada considered Hitler to be gentleman, but not the americans. ===== Dr. Patel: Yes, sir, but it is said that the German scientist ran away to America because they were afraid of Hitler. If Hitler gets the secret of atom, he would bomb out the whole world. Prabhupada: No, no. Hitler knew it. Dr. Patel: No. They were not able to be successful to... Prabhupada: No, no. He knew it, everything, but he did not like to do it. He said. He said. He was gentleman. But these people are not gentlemen. He knew it perfectly well. He said that "I can smash the whole world, but I do not use that weapon." The Germans already discovered. But out of humanity they did not use it. And all the, your American, other countries, they have stolen from German ideas. >>> Ref. VedaBase => Morning Walk -- November 20, 1975, Bombay ====== > This is a very delicate matter. This text may imply that Srila Prabhupada > was a nazi sympathizer. Is that your intentions? Or is it that Prabhupada > had some good disposition for Hitler (the epitome of nazism)? > > What is it that you want to stress with this material? > > Nazis have been one of the most nefarious "ethnic cleansers" ever existed > in recent history. An uninformed reader may perceive a corelation between > the Nazis (Hitler himself, at that) and Srila Prabhupada's sympathy for > them (???). What's the point?
