this is that letter that states: "It is a fact however that the great

sinister movement is within our Society"

 

It does historically appears to relate to the fact that some senior

ISKCON devotees started to preach deviant philosophy that Srila

Prabhupada was god, should be understood as such -- omnipotent supreme

being.

 

at a time he even kicked out everyone out of one of the temples JUST for

that, except for like 2 devotees who would not agree with that.

 

I think it could be a tendency of some to think that at least

internally. One should think about it very very deeply and reflect on

the above statements by Srila Prabhupada.

 

this letter is often used and misused by enemies of ISKCON when it as

well is taken out of context.
