Show honesty and resign.

[Guest guest]

Dear Bhagavat Dharma Prabhu,

 

Please accept my humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. I see that for the second time running you

have *avoided* answering every single point I make. Further this time you

also have made it clear that you no longer wish to continue the discussion.

We obviously must have hit a raw nerve.

 

1) You resolutely refuse to answer the point first raised by Bhakta Rupa

prabhu about taking shelter of the Holy name. We will ask you for the third

time - are you chanting 16 rounds a day and taking shelter of the holy name

as advised by His Grace Bhakta Rupa Prabhu. If you fail to answer this

question for the *third time* then it will be clear to everyone that you are

*not* chanting 16 rounds a day and taking shelter of the holy name - which

then of course makes what you say useless as well as hypocritical.

 

2) You also refuse to address the obvious point that you have a history of

simply parroting whatever will ensure keeps your wages rolling in , and

being a paid defender of regimes that have been proven over time to be

corrupt - the zonal acharya system, Harikesa etc. etc. Therefore this is

another reason why what you say has no value since you are clearly not

thinking for yourself but simply reading from whatever script you are

provided by your employers.

 

3) Finally your point about the GBC is redundant because again you avoid a

simple point. Yes Srila Prabhupada did set up a GBC. But he also told us

what the GBC was. Obviously if the GBC tomorrow said 'Krishna wasn't God',

they would cease to be the GBC, and we would not need to follow them. The

GBC are not a law unto themselves - they are bound by Srila Prabhupada's

instructions - and in this way there is a check and balance to make sure

they do not deviate. Srila Prabhupada has made this very clear when he set

up and defined the GBC. I quote:

 

"Resolved: The GBC (Governing Body Commission) has been established by His

Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada to represent Him in

carrying out the responsibility of managing the International Society for

Krishna Consciousness of which He is the Founder-Acarya and supreme

authority. The GBC accepts as its life and soul His divine instructions and

recognises that it is completely dependent on His mercy in all respects. The

GBC has no other function or purpose other than to execute the instructions

so kindly given by His Divine Grace and preserve and spread His Teachings to

the world in their pure form." (Definition of GBC, Resolution 1, GBC minutes

1975)

 

It clearly states that the GBC has "no other function or purpose other than

to execute the instructions so kindly given by His Divine Grace". I think

you would agree that if the GBC did not do this, then they would no longer

be the GBC - saying that Krishna was not God would be once such example of

not 'executing the instructions' of Srila Prabhupada who has repeatedely

made it clear that Krishna IS God. Similarly the July 9th directive was

another instruction given by His Divine Grace which the GBC have not

executed, thereby dis-enfranchising themselves. This is a very simple point.

 

Your desire to continually avoid every point which is made and to simply run

away from the discussion merely confirms 3 points:

 

a) That you are NOT chanting 16 rounds every day.

b) That you are just parroting whatever will keep your wages intact.

c) That you know that the GBC have lost their authorisation to be the GBC by

having *not* executed the instruction of July 9th.

 

Let us see if you will be man enough to address these points or will you

just avoid them again for the *3rd* time.

 

ys, Adri
