Isvara Prabhu means well... as he's written here... E-mail is "highly

impersonal"... and I know Isvara Prabhu is a sincere soul.

 

But... I agree with Pancha Tattva Prabhu that we all ought to be respectful

to all others... it does require practice... it is easy to be highly

critical (guess I've been guilty of that on occasion in the past here on

e-mail too! :-) ).

 

So Isvara Prabhu... kindly continue your valuable "critique" of the bogus

feministic ideas which are indeed entering like poison within ISKCON.

 

Just be most or even "utmost" respectful to those who espouse this

nonsense... because that is indeed vaishnava ettiquette.

 

dasanudas,
