The persons, I would like as GBCs are not at all like your guru-maharaj.

They are exactly the opposite rather. That is why I shall not share with you

on this issue. You may overly react unnecessarily, as your godbrother or

Jiva Goswami das did, on a similar issues recently.

 

I will simply give you some hints, so that you can discover by yourself,

about whom I am presently thinking, to perform these topmost managerial

duties, as fresh and inspired new members.

 

These male devotees are thoroughly honest, responsible and Krsna-conscious

leaders. They are very mature devotees, with a clean past in Iskcon. They

are ready to take up responsibility on Prabhupada's behalf.

 

They have proven to be very qualified in the past, through years of

management in iskcon, as Temple Presidents, school heads, or project

leaders. Maybe they can't give such classes as HH.JPS., but they don't have

hundreds of disciples to take care, while managing great projects in

Iskcon. That is their main qualification.

 

They are also very humble, devotional and pure. They are not misogynist, and

have a great heart that can accomodate children, matajis, poor brahmanas,

sad vaisyas, sick and old devotees, cows, society at large, etc. They are

not always the most senior devotees of Iskcon, but they are bright.

 

They do not let themselves become overwhelmed or overworked to the extent

that they can't chant their rounds anylonger, or attend the morning program

blissfully and thoroughly with other devotees.

 

They are always available, whomever we may be, to receive us privately, in

their office, or to answer our letters or phone calls, in a genuine and

concerned way, and turn their attention carefully to what we have to say, by

intelligently taking notes and/or answering appropriately.

 

They are able to attend to our basic needs without any difficulty.

 

Did you guess now who they are? Send me your names with your personal

comment on each personality you have chosen, privately, and I will tell you

if I agree with you, or if I prefer somebody else instead. Ready?

 

Let's see if you can find, by youself, who are the most selfless and

qualified leaders, right now in Iskcon. I am waiting for your answer.

 

However, if you do not want to play with me, then forget about the whole

thing. You'll see their name early enough when some of our present GBC Body

will have finally resigned, under the whole society's pressure.

 

Our GBC Restructure conference will come out very soon with some thoughtful

and reasonable proposal, by Sri Rama's grace. So, just be a little patient

and everything will be revealed to you.

 

Please accept my greetings and Srila Prabhupada's blessings.

 

Hope this message will find you in good health and blissful

Krsna-consciousness.

 

Your servant in Prabhupada's mission,

Krsna-kirtana dasi.

 

 

Mataji, let's not get into arguments.

Yes , a lot of qualified Iskcon brahmanas have asked for that. Why are you

not on the GBC Restructure conference if you are so concerned? You would

read all these texts youself personally. They are very interesting!

 

Doesn't this show a serious lack of understanding of how

Not at all! Laxmimoni mataji gave a very thoughtful proposal. Others'

proposal are also worth noticing! Please study these texts thoroughly.

's dishonest comment on this varnasrama development conference. Yes, prabhu,

you are forgiven. But not Bhadra Govinda das, as he has not appreciated my

personal answer to all of his questions on our GBC Restructure conference,

nor apologized for his biaised letter on VD. conference. I have found him

most confused, personally, and not ready to listen to what we told him.

 

So please respect my silence now. This is my humble plea to you.

 

It's not a question of my or your godbrother, we

Yes , he was also speaking in the same manner as you do, and had been

trained by the same guru-maharaj, so forget about it, please.

 

Please contact Ajamila Prabhu if he trusts you, he will answer you.

 

Thank you to please not bother me anylonger with your questions.

We have set up a GBC Restructure conference to deal with this issue.

Submit your questions there and we'll try to answer you.

 

Your servant at Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet,

Krsna-kirtana dasi.
