Official Ramakanta vs. IRM discussion thread

[Guest guest]

Dear Yaduraja Prabhu, PAMHO. AGTSP!

 

 

You (who does not know how a devotee is authorized to be a diksa guru in

ISKCON) are talking about a topic that is beyond your limit. Therefore you

must confirm by quotes every statement that you make. Otherwise it is

rascaldom.

 

"You should be curious within your limit. You should know that one can

become guru when he is ordered by his guru, this much." (Lecture, Bg 7.2,

Oct 28, 1975)

 

"The process of speaking in spiritual circles is to say something upheld by

the scriptures. One should at once quote from scriptural authority to back

up what he is saying." (Bg 17.15 purport)

 

"Just see how rascaldom. You do not know something perfectly, and still, you

are talking about it." (Lecture, Bg 1.45-46, Aug 1, 1973)

 

Since you have not backed up by quotes what you just wrote, I ignore it.

The status quo I agree Srila Prabhupada established in 1966 is that he is

the founder acarya of ISKCON. Yes, he locked it down by his instruction that

on the front page of every book it must say, "Founder Acarya of ISKCON". But

what has this to do with our current discussion?

 

 

So I am waiting for the quotes that confirm your point c), quotes from Srila

Prabhupada saying that his disciples are not authorized to be diksa gurus in

ISKCON, that they cannot make their own disciples. If you present anything

else, I will ignore it. Of course you can also withdraw your point c).
