And I see the *congregation* as the real basis for possible

development of VAD. That is ISCKON also. Forget temples and the

GBC. They will NOT make VAD for you. They can't. The congregation

can. The required potential is there. Not in the temple. And they

do it, little by little.

 

It's nothing too late to change.

(don't let me, a notorious cynic, telling you something like that)

Then you are talking about not a temple, but the entire well-organized

society with VAD as the operating system.

 

However, we have already concluded that:

 

- There is 25 years 6 months 3 days and 12 hours and 54 minutes

that such a system has not yet been established by the GBC.

 

So shall we move now further on from that "positivism", in this

conference?

Yes, for those who got no brain, best not to use it. They may

use their legs instead -- that doesn't mean speculating.

For those who got a brain, best they don't use it until they

find a bona fide guru.

And for those who have found a bona fide guru, well, best to

not use their own brain, but to simply follow instructions.

 

The conclusion -- it is brainless to use own brain in any case
