"Whoever causes offenseless beings to suffer must fear me anywhere and everywhere in the world. By curing dishonest miscreants one automatically benefits the offenseless. An upstart living being who commits offenses by torturing those who are offenseless shall be directly uprooted by me, even though he be a denizen of heaven with armor and decorations." Srimad Bhagavatam Cano 1, Ch 17, Texts 14 and 15
Even if he is GBC, even if he is decorated with tilak and tulsi and 10,000 disciples adorn his feet, even there they are not safe from those who mean to safeguard religion and society, who mean to conquer the world, to protect its denizens and to place it as a shining jewel at the Sampradaya Acarya, Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet. This was the mood of ISKCON during Prabhupada's lila period, the mood of his disciples, and that is still their mood, only ISKCON has changed.
Srila Prabhupada, writing in the purport to the fourth text of the same chapter, gives the root cause why ISKCON has changed:
"And the root cause of all mismanagement and quarrel is that worthless men with the modes of lower class men, who have no higher ambition in life, come to the helm of the state government. Such men at the post of a king are sure to hurt the cow and brahminical culture, thereby pushing all society towards hell."
What is true of the state is also true of ISKCON, this is obvious, and what is true of Maharaja Pariksit is also true of the devotees. Outraged by what has been done and is still being done they seek out those who dressed as kings of the movement practice their offences in seclusion and secrecy, calling for their immediate surrender, calling out to all of ISKCON, if it is to stand it can only do so on the support of truth.
As Srila Prabhupada explains in the beginning words of his purport to text 14, any other mode of action or inaction upon the part of ISKCON or the sincere disciples of Guru is cowardly and impotent to reverse the downward slide that is carrying the movement to hell.
Gokulanada and others would have us believe that all who cry out for full disclosure are malcontents, and some are even threatening them with mortal danger. In short, these miscreants are threatening to strike the legs of the cow and the bull again. They do not even possess the discrimination to see that it is not the bull or the cow that comes towards them, but that which has been sent by the will of the Supreme Lord Himself, a martial spirit that will not halt or cease until they have halted their evil activities, divested themselves of their guises as kings of the movement and completely surrendered. Only then, when they stop their offences, give up their false pretension, come forth with full disclosure, and when their threats become pleas for their own existence may mercy be extended to them. Not that any place where gambling, prostitution, or intoxication are found will offer to have them.
Gokulananda and others have various negotiation strategies by which they attempt to create belief and manipulate us by those beliefs. They switch them back and forth, sometimes attempting to make us fear for our own lives and in the latest, attempting to make us fear for the future of Krsna consciousness. "The chanting of Hare Krsna will cease, if we do not stop such talk."
They maintain that we must be meek and humble and accept whatever we are told by those who have set themselves up in positions of power over the Krsna consciousness movement. They plead this in hopes that we will accept it so that they lead another generation to the slaughterhouse of their institution, like sheep. If we follow this formula they will sit back and chuckle and justify their predations. "If Krsna had not meant them to be fleeced,0 He would not have made them sheep."
Women forced unto prostitution, children raped and brutalized, and even murdered or drowned, the list is endless. Srila Prabhupada's Palace's foundation used as a place to secret the bodies of murdered devotees, it is all "okay" and we must all be at peace, for if we are not then the chanting of Hare Krsna may cease?
Not likely. Only the continuation of ISKCON as it is, is threatened, but if it continues as it is, it threatens to halt the advancement of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mission. And in case no one has noticed it, it already has.
ISKCON itself admits defeat. Of course they do not blame themselves. They have an excuse - "The climate is unfavorable." This is what they say of America. Rapidly however, they will realize that the climate is unfavorable in whatever place has a Google search, in whatever place a single evening's research will find the searcher viewing Chakradari's skull and the bones of other murdered devotees being pulled up from the earth. Oh yeah, that is a movement that someone is going to want to join or support, you bet.
In this Age of quarrel and hypocrisy the fate of ISKCON stands on one leg, and that is truthfulness. Gokulananda, and others would have that one leg also cut out from under it so that the personalities of Kali can reign supreme. He and others mistake the cries for ISKCON to be truthful to be the voices of some malcontents who are envious of the perfection that such good men -- men who are still gurus, such as Radhanatha, Bhagavan, and yes, even Kirtanananda… still pure devotees in the eyes of their disciples. They still enjoy, but it is not the voice of envy, it is the voice of Guru, and still if they will not listen to it, it is the voice of thunder, like the voice of Maharaja Pariksit
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
