ancient_paztriot Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 A little to close to home? ...................................... Hayagriva dasa: Because the parampara is broken? Srila Prabhupada: Yes, The Church is the supreme authority provided that it maintains itself in exactly the same way and does not deviate from its beginning. As soon as we interpret and divide, the message is lost. Hayagriva dasa: the Protestants claimed that the parampara of the Catholic Church was broken, therefore they broke from Catholicism and fragmented into many dfferent sects. Srila Prabhupada: Yes, they condemned the Catholic Church because its parampara was broken, but they concluded, “Let us also break.” Those who first broke away from the message as it is and those who followed them by breaking away themselves are both to blame. Since the original solidarity of the Christian religion is broken, the Christian religion is dwindling and losing its importance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kulapavana Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 amen to that. we are oh, so guilty... /images/graemlins/frown.gif SP knew it was coming and that is why he asked us to work together. Neither ISKCON nor the "breakaways" pay much attention to cooperation. it is almost an all out war between different camps. very, very sad /images/graemlins/frown.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancient_paztriot Posted May 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 We'd better learn our lessons. Time is running out… the monopolies are getting too big. There are repressive forces making it difficult to survive. What to speak of practicing religion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
