theist Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 A proposal by the Sastric Advisory Committee (SAC, a group set up to give scripturally based advice to the GBC) to eliminate the "no-objection" system for appointing gurus was not passed. The "no-objection" system essentially means that one can be considered an initiating guru in ISKCON if there is no objection from a GBC appointed group. The SAC proposed that the decision be made by the disciple. So why have this SAC if they are going to ignore their proposals and do what they want anyway?

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 that is what it amounts to. Who has heard the 'democratically chosen' to listen to those they are supposed to rule? Who then will expect the self-appointed to listen to anyone else? VdK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
