Can our GBC > godbrothers tell us what was the reason why this was reversed? As I understand it, the reason was the practical difficulties in accommodating all those who would otherwise naturally be included (Srila Prabhupada initiated disciples, GBC, initiated donors, etc.) in the time available. >And who are > the fortunate few who will perform the bathing? What I heard (this should be clarified by someone directly involved in this decision) is that everyone will be able to bathe the utsav deities but, because of the practical considerations of time, only the actual Pancha-tattva pujaris plus 1 GBC representative and 1 Mayapur management representative will do the abhishek for the big deities.
