My relationship with ISKCON

[Paramananda das]

 

dear devotees

Please accept my humble obaisences

All glories to Srila Gurudeva and Gauranga

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

1)  I have no interest in Diksa or siksa from ISKCON ,or GBC versions of Srila Prabhupadas teachings that often contradicts Srila Prabhupadas teachings. I am reinitiated by Narayana Maharaja in 1999, and though some GBC men had asked me to go with my former name Payonidhi .I do not complie with their wishes.They are not my friends or wellwishers , and often do not follow proper Siddhanta.Many sannyasis ,TP's and GBC's  for example do not even teach their disciples to not take grains on Janmastami , nor follow this themselves.

2) I will distribute Srila Prabhuapadas books in the version I like the most, the older versions. If for some reason I am at a temple  ,I will  distribute  what is availabel from     BBT books  as long as it is Srila Prabhupadas books.

3) I will  on occasions visit an ISKCON temple to take darshan  of Radha Krsna and Gaura Nitai , and attend Srila Prabhupadas Gurupuja.

This is the extend of my relationship to ISKCON  at this point.When GBC reconginize my initiation by Narayana Maharaja I will relate with devotees accordingly,many or most  address me as Paramananda das ,  if not I reject their association as asat sanga.I urge the GBC to start following Srila Prabhupadas instructions and take Harinama and bookdistribution seriously with every GBC and sannyasi and TP and all   devotees,   participating as much as possible, not by force but out of love  see SB 7.9.44 plus purport.

I do not condone marriages of nondevotees in ISKCON as it is opposed to Srila Prabhupadas instructions , and bingo halls with meat prizes like in ISKCON Brooklyn.My question is where is the conscience to do the proper thing?

I am sick and tired of the impersonal dealings that often goes on ,"sugar coated" with nasty    politics.

   Anyway for more details on the weekly Bingo in ISKCON Brooklyn please contact Ramabhadra das, you can win a pound of beef if you are "blessed by Krishna "

your servant
