Certainly not. Bhimasena acted with Krsna's sanction (in the presence of the Lord). Ardhabuddi is no Bhimasena. This dimwit acted as if he had no authority by running to town with his ill-gotten texts, bypassing all lines of authority. Funny though that some are supporting him. Birds of the same feather flock together. Of course, the ornithological analogy applies also to the GHQ who got together to write that paper to the GBC. > and anyway what´s wrong with protecting the "public good" > (see the text from Hare Krsna dasi) > ys pad Nothing wrong, if there's no other agenda of encouraging defiance of authority.

Which bird would that be? Let's see, the GBC sets up a Women's Ministry and GHQ sees it as a hotbed of unVedic feminism. Is that seeing the best possibilities of what it is or could be, or looking for the lowest? The terminology used, which unbelievably enough guys like Jaya Tirtha Charan not only don't repudiate, but rationalise why it is okay? Which flock would that be with? TLK verse 12 purport " In the bird society, there are crows and swans, and crows are interested in places where filthy things are thrown. However, swans prefer nice clear water with lotus flowers, and it is in such places that they take their pleasure. Similarly, there are men who are like crows and men like swans. That is a natural division. According to an old English proverb, Birds of a feather flock together. Crows mix with crows, and swans mix with swans. Since devotees are like swans (haàsas), a most advanced devotee is called paramahaàsa. The paramahaàsas are not interested in subjects fit for crows.
