Please don't discuss the guru issue in the Varnasrama conference

Understood. It is true that we are far from living in a Varnasrama society,

but personally, I think that to apply Varnasrama to our lives is a gradual

thing. The problems we deal with in ISKCON today are valuable to discuss to

become better prepared for Varnasrama.

Considering the touchy nature of today's situation however, I definately

agree to and appreciate your decision to stop discussing particular Gurus

and their present situation. That is anyway not really proper to do here.

 

If it is obvious that a discussion related to Gurus in a Varnasrama society

is not motivated in finding faults with the present Gurus, I think it could

be quite a nice discussion. But as you have noticed, that does not seem to

be possible on this conferance at this point.

 

It is a pity that things have to go so far that you have to moderate the

conferance. It must be such a job for you, considering the amounts of texts

which are on this conf. nowadays... Thank you for doing it!
