a thoughtful text.

 

We have to understand that all people who loudly speak against child abuse

are not necessarily interested in children welfare or justice or improving

ISKCON, or whatever. Some of them are simply working in the hands of

kaliyuga who wnats to cripple ISKCON.

 

We should not become slave of kaliyuga and help, directly or indirectly,

people like puranjana das (I have never seen him I guess) who has openly

said he wants to destroy ISKCON. Such people will try to find each and every

possibilty to destroy, divide ISKCON at any cost and in any name.

 

We need to learn how to recognise our well wishers and ill wishers. We

should not get tempted of becoming famous over night by going publicly

aginst the GBC or by going to court. I also have complaints against some of

our leaders' policies, at times I also feel that the leaders are too slow or

too tolerent (at the cost of others), I even feel that some leaders are

corrupt, and so on but that doesn't constitute enough reasons to support any

court action. If we want to do something noticeable in our life let it be

constructive.

 

And how the court case will help, btw? I am suprised how can some

intelligent people support that action! can they prove how, under the

circumstance, it will help? or just becuase noone helped them they go to

another party, at the risk of millions of dollars of ISKCON's money

collected over years by many hard working devotees? We have to think wisely

and understand that court cases are not the solution.
