For you everything that you insist on seams to be of "speaks

for itself" category. But you keep speaking and trying to

convince the audience into such "self-speaking truths".

 

Now, we are back to "'next acarya' business", ain't we? However,

now it's not anymore a "straw-man" argument, but it's something

beyond our ability to gainfully "speculate about". So we might

face the promotion of NM as the next ISCKON acarya, but we got

not to "speculate" over it. Because we can't understand it.

What could be the next? Some self-proclaimed Incarnation of

God appears, and then we have another "Srila" with the same

"wisdom" -- "It's beyond your ability to gainfully speculate

about".

 

Once Narayana Maharaja stops trying to act as the superior

authority to the ISCKON's gurus/leaders, and once his followers

stop telling/insisting how he is the next acarya in ISCKON, then we

also might stop "speculating" over it. Please go to Narayana Maharaja's

camp and tell **them** to stop speculating over something that is

beyond **their** understanding. Will you do that, Srila prabhu?

 

 

 

--------------------------------

 

First you stress SIKSA as the primal way of determining our

line. Thus you go establishing the position of Narayana Maharaja in

relationship to Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati, and consequently to

Srila Prabhupada. But when asked for more specifics that would

clarify exact place of NM in the Guru-parampara line, then you

suddenly switch the subject and go saying it was "that we might

better understand OUR position."

 

NOT *our* position, Srila prabhu. We understand it. In

ISCKON we are either disciples or granddisciples of Srila

Prabhupada. However, if somebody wishes to change his/her position,

so yes, everyone is free.

 

 

It was the position of NM in the line of our Guru parampara

that you wanted to disclose to us, not OUR position. Try to

keep coherent in upholding your points, and try to keep

concentrated on a particular topic, don't make some "self-evident

mush" out of everything.

Then go to Agraya and other NM promoters and tell them to stop

presenting Narayana Maharaja over the Internet as the ISCKON acarya,

as the Guru that all the members of ISCKON are to be brought to him.

 

Then you stop telling us how "honey" is to be found in Gaudiya

Math.

 

Then you get of air and let "an Acarya's word and cation speak

for themselves", and stop finally splattering your hearsay

all over the e-waves.

 

 

 

You promoters of Narayana Maharaja are so LOUD in promoting him,

as well as aggressive in it.

But when one responds in non-acceptance mood, then you go:

"Tshhhhhhst... not so loud.. it's to be cleared personally.. not

here in public..."
