    Well TKS wrote that he should be siksa guru for all Iskcon in 1994 Iskcon journal. It must be true... at least for you. Am I right or am I right?

    Without saying it they (Iskcon the institution) are declaring there are no more acharya's (self effulgent self realized souls) only the rubber stamped variety will be acknowledged, and as we know these are given their rubber stamp of approval by the GBC (Same as the Papal conclave within the Vatican) They are turning Srila Prabhupada into a Christ like figure which means no self effulgent acharya can come after him (he was the last and only real one of the Yuga), therefore anyone who wants Srila Prabupada's mercy must surrender to your local corrupt Iskcon official (officially corrupt ones are even more glorious and usually have higher positions)

    Rather than appointing a single Pope (like TKS tried to do...himself) they appoint many little Popes and not a single one of these is even on the scholarly level of a Bhaktivedanta, and now they are about to build what looks like Vatican city in the middle of Mayapur. Yes Srila Prabhupada wanted a Vedic Planetarium and a big temple but this beggars belief.

    NM presents a real problem for Iskcon, because he is self effulgent. Not all but many devotees will go to him, why would'nt you? There is nothing in Iskcon that even comes close to his standard, 54 years as Sanyasi (more than the age of most Iskcon Sanyasi's), knowledge of shastra, Bhaktivedanta in his own right (His list of books that he has translated and written are longer than most I have ever seen) and on top of all that he can take a shisya (disciple) all the way. He has full knowledge of Vaidhi Bhakti and Raganuga Bhakti which makes up the full picture as Rupa Goswami has eruditely transcribed and all of the acharya's in our disciplic succession fully accept including Srila Prabhupada who also covered these topics in his Nectar or Devotion and the C.C.'s

    Srila Prabhupada only had 11 shorts years to establish the foundations of what will last 10,000 years. What he didn't need was devotees going into Raganuga, he needed emergency relief for the immeasurable souls that were suffering and without any knowledge of Krishna. Hare Krishna is now a household word around the world thanks to Srila Prabhupada. That time has passed some devotees are reaching 60 and 70 years plus and they and all of us are entitled to practice Sadhana Bhakti in its complete entirety as Srila Prabhupada has written about.

    Don't be fooled by idiots that try and rubbish this side of the teachings by calling it the "Gopi Bhava" club, that alone demonstrates they have sub-zero knowledge of the topic. Vaidhi Bhakti and Ragunaga Bhakti are not mutually exclusive they compliment each other. Vaidhi Bhakti has been well known for 5000 years, but the Raganuga Bhakti is what Chaitanya Mahaprabhu came to distribute (that's the internal reason discussed in Srila Prabhpada's C.C) and he gave it to all and sundry its the key to the deep transcendental abode of Radha and Krishna and the only qualification you need is to want it.

    if he was enthusiastic to serve the GBC he would be coming to the meetings for all of his last years. he was enthusiastic to not to come, and only showed up when the pressure became too high and they were considering striking him off. at least he had an opportunity for a few kirtans after years of isolation.

    SGD you still cannot get it through your thick head, Jadurani is still her name she has not been re-initiated, Shyamarani is a pet name that NM uses.

    Stop throwing up false issues which are already proven to be wrong, and then arguing against them. Jadurani has already explain in her own words she was never re-initiated and she agrees that would be offensive if it happened but as she explain it did not happen.

    >>ps If Narayanna maharaja is ISKCONS next successor ....where does Srila PRABHUPADA mention ''younger devotees''...fresh of the street , should be schooled in the ''gopi siddhanta'' or raganuga bhakti......which is presently being preached by narayanna maharaja and followers?

    Where is your proof of this SGD?
