I'm really tired of it, I can imagine you are really tired when all you seem to do is defend ISKCON from so-called ISKCON devotees here. But why don't you afford yourself a break from it for a week or so, you have really deserved it. You have been on 24hours shift lately, on the alert all the time, policing the place so meticulously, standing up firmly in defense of ISKCON, against all these terrible attacks done here.. You definitelly need some rest, so why not take it? And belive me, ISKCON will still manage to hold up in the meantime.. - mnd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not about to join Gaudiya Matha, and I'm pretty cautious about inter-institutional association, on a practical level (mostly due to the ISKCON's historical experience with this, which has invariably been negative); however, at the same time, I don't see anything in Prabhupada's books explicitly prohibiting devotees from hearing non-ISKCON Gaudiya Vaisnavas who inspire them. His circumstantial instructions are another thing. I've always wondered how that policy can be so vehemently enforced in light of this lack.
