Dandavad. Prabhupada kijaya!

Srila Prabhupada would change his policies when he saw problems. We should

look carefully at WHY a policy was established to see if changes are allowed

or not.

WE must look beyond the system to the reasons for the system to determine if

it still holds true. Plus, we should not isolate one particular policy

from overall principles, instructions and directions Srila Prabhupada gave

for our Society.

 

If we find that systems of managing darshan arrangements are creating

difficulties then we should apply our intelligence to satisfying the basic

principle - that all devotees should enjoy peaceful darshan as far as

possible.

 

Unfortunately, the Vrindavan darshan mandap is far too small for the number

of visitors, so practically any arrangement will be less than perfect.

However, I can't see how Srila Prabhupada would object if we made changes in

order to better accommodate ladies having darshan of Their Lordships.

 

Your servant,

PS

We all know that in the last years of his physical presence Srila Prabhupada

repeatedly called for establishing varnashrama training, seeing various

difficulties in earlier policies. He called for varnashram college to be

established in "every center". If we would put more effort into pursuing

this policy we may find the answers to other dilemmas.

I can see how he could object if we didn't.

 

Pancaratna Prabhu, I very much appreciated your dialog with Mahaman.

The point that is being missed time and againis that in Vrindavan we have

made and continue to make all efforts to provide facilities for having

Darshan to both men and ladies. However, previous previous arrangements

which were mutually agreed upon by the management and the representative of

ladies and still continue to be defied by them. This defiance of the

authorities caused and continue to cause problems.

Do you think Srila Prabhupada will be pleased with the blatant defiance of

authorities by these women?

>From what I know, Srila Prabhuppada alwaya support the management.

 

Thanking you

Your servant

Mahaman Das
