But I could also say: "If you think that ISKCON is an imperfect society, with imperfect leadership, following Srila Prabhupada imperfectly, and thus contuinually inflicting 'ills' upon people, I am very sad for you. But the fact is that there are many devotees who are not disillusioned. You may call them blind followers, stupid, cult members, fanatics, losers, whatever you like, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist or that they don't have valid concerns about the constant attacks rendered on ISKCON." It's all a matter of perspective, Mukhya. That's mine, yours is yours. You are personally aware that I appreciate your perspective, however I don't see much of the other side in some forums. It gets a little annoying when all I hear is the negative slamming of ISKCON. It may be true to some degree, but why is it an unfeasible proposition to use our philosophy to resolve it?
