Founder-Archarya..Sampradaya -Archarya,terms which mean what in preaching terms ?
  • How should Prabhupada Disciples and their natural diksa descendents veiw these terms?
  • Founder-Archarya is Founder-Archarya of International Society for Krishna Consciousness. Those who are not members of ISKCON or are former members try very hard to retain some sense of connection to Srila Prabhupada outside of this framework. Thus they invent terms and titles that have not been approved by Srila Prabhupada himself. These include Sampradaya-acarya, Acarya-avatara etc. However the core of SP instruction is to stay within the society, that has only one Founder Acharya.
  • Founder- Acarya-avatara ACBSP Ki Jaya!

    How about that? Pretty cool,eh!

    Or

    Jagat-Guru ACBSP Ki Jaya!

    Is that another one that Prabhupada supposely disapproved.

    Jaya! Jaya! Jaya!
  • Agreed with ccd. SP didn't like 'jagad guru' due to being connected to mayavadi sannyasis. (CC 1.7.64 p., etc.)
  • Silver spoons rasa update.......especially for ccd to encourage him''Srila Prabhupada to gurukripa swami.....vrindavan he said “My guru ordered me to go to the west, and I did
    that. My main service was to translate these books and I did that. I
    have a personal desire to build these temples in India. That is my
    personal program. But they (his disciples) will not give me money and
    my head is getting hot. I have to translate these books, write many
    letters, and I am thinking how to raise the money to build these
    temples because my disciples have their own programs and will not give
    me money.” So, seeing SP like this, I told him that from today forth,
    you just translate the books peacefully, and I will take the headache
    and go and get the money. When I walked out of the room, I could not
    believe what I just said........
  • Srila Prabhupada told me in the car in New Zealand, he turned to me in the car, and
    said, ''while you were building Krishna Balarama temple in Vrindavan.
    Krishna was building you a house in Goloka. I have seen it, it is very
    nice''. ....Silver spoons rasa....
  • Such a wonderful personal pastime between guru kripa das and our founder- Archarya ...srila Prabhupada.....
  • "Everyone is sleeping in the darkness of Kali-yuga, but when there is a great acarya, by his calling only, everyone takes to the study of the Vedas to acquire actual knowledge." (Srila Prabhupada, Krsna Book C. 20)
