All glories to Srila Prabhupada! Thankyou for your letter cited below with my comments. I have noted the contents carefully. > Dear Srila Jayapataka Maharaja, > Please accept my humble obeisances.All Glories to Srila Prabhupada. > All Glories to your service unto him. > > Sometimes there are elder devotees who are preaching philosophy which > differs significantly from what Srila Prabhupada has taught us.

Sonja If you hear things which you find different from Srila Prabhupada's teachings then you can ask the speaker during Q & A session to clarify any doubt you have. If they say something stupid in response or can't explain why what they said was okay then you could inform some more senior devotees about what happened for future reference. In any case everyone would have been warned about the difference if he couldn't respond. If he could respond then your doubts might be irradicated and the problem is over. I hope that this finds you in good health. Your ever well wisher, Jayapataka Swami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
