Aren't these quotes very clear!!! Why does the GBC not respond?

 

Letter to Umapati, Los Angeles, 9 July, 1971

 

They have dedicated their lives to the service of the Lord. And most GBC

members are householders. You also may be elected. ***The position is open to

all grhasthas.*** But if you live separately with your wife and earn only for

yourself and your wife, then how you expect to have a good position with the

society?

 

Darsana, June 28, 1971, San Francisco

 

So these things the foolish rascal people do no understand. Try to make them

understand and go on preaching. ***The sannyasis are meant for preaching and

the GBC's are meant for managing***. In this way do it. Now you give me

relief-I go on writing books, that's all. So Visnujana Maharaja, your preaching

is going on nice?

Visnujana: Yes, Prabhupada.

Prabhupada: Sannyasi should be always preaching. Parivrajakacarya.

 

Letter to: Jayatirtha, Johannesburg, 16 October, 1975

 

The local management has to be done by temple president, GBC should see whether

management is going on nicely, and if there are any discrepancies that will be

discussed at the GBC meeting in Mayapur. That is the process. ***Sannyasis are

meant for preaching only.*** That is the principle. But, contrary to the

principle if things are being embezzled then how can I save them. How one man

can manage the whole world affairs? This is my concern.
