seeing through the eyes of scriptures
paranormal activities and suicides and murders in ISKCON
Sometimes some so called devotees commit suicide ,we can understand they are not vaisnavas , as Vaisnavas never commit suicide ,such temples where such suicides takes place becomes inauspicious ,unless lots of purification takes place . ISKCON Potomac had suicide New Vrindavana and ISKCON Vrindavana had murders ,but gradually if there is pure devotees and proper yajnas performed then the influence will go away ,just like Srila Prabhupada talks about how Putana could only enter Vraja because Krsna and allowed it.Yogamaya allowed it .Suicides and murders are not due to Yogamaya but mostly done due to Mahamaya.Few exceptions may be there like Satrajit killed in Dvaraka in Lord Krsnas presence .One former sannyasi Nityadita das from New Vrindavana resident always harassed why I never came to New Vrindavana ,so finally I got angry and said why should I go to a sinful place where so many devotees where murdered ? I
f a temple has a strange energy this can be one of the reasons, in such temples easy other irreligion is often seen ,such a temple have a certain sinful energy ,followed by allowing ritviks , taking grains on Visnutattva apperancedays and unlimeted other impure activities in many temples 16 rounds is not chanted by all and many have illlicit sex secretly it is thus no longer a holy place but a very mundane and sinful place in the name of a temple ,Money frauds ,improper philosophy such as women lib , demigodworship etc A place where there is braking of 4 regs becomes a place where ghosts can flourish so that is why Srila Prabhupada was strict about the minimum of 16 rounds and 4 regs Persons in the bodily concept of life are like ghostly hunted persons and never take proper shelter of Lord Narasimha
my son had me watch this movie with him about ghosts based on true events , in Kali yuga there is many ghosts because people live such sinful lives and they are like hunted persons fully absorbed in the material identification of life this is based on true events of Ed and Lorraine Warren Paranormal investigators
Paramananda Das there is lots of demoniac forces in Kali yuga , here are some mantras that can be chanted for getting rid of ghosts besides the Mahamantra
ugram viram maha-vishnum
jvalantam sarvato mukham
nrisimham bhishanam bhadram
mrityur mrityum namamy aham

Paramananda Das Both Srila Prabhupada and Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura expelled ghosts as did Srila Ramanujacarya and Jesus Christ

Paramananda Das some ekadasis remover influence of ghosts and spirits like todays ekadasi : Sri Yudhisthira Maharaja said, "Oh Supreme Lord, I have heard from You the explanation of Amalakii Ekadasiii which occurs during the light fortnight of the month of Phalguna (February-March), and now I wish to hear about the ekadasii that occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Chaitra (March-April). What is its name, Oh Lord, and what results can one attain by observing it?"
The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Sri Krishna, replied, "O best of kings, for the benefit of everyone I shall gladly describe to you the glories of this ekadasii, which is known as Papamochanii. The history of this ekadasii was once narrated to the Emperor Mandhata by Lomasa Rishi. King Mandhata addressed the Rishi, 'Oh great sage, for the benefit of all people, please tell me the name of the ekadasii that occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Chaitra, and please explain the process for observing it. Also, please describe the benefits one gains by observing this ekadasii.'
"Lomasa Rishi replied, "The ekadasii that occurs during the dark part of the month of Chaitra is named Papamochanii Ekadasii. For the faithful devotee it removes the influences of ghosts and demons. Oh lion among men, this ekadasii also awards the eight perfections of life, fulfils all kinds of desires, purifies one's life of all sinful reactions, and makes a person perfectly virtuous.

Paramananda Das "Now please listen to a historical account concerning this ekadasii and Chitraratha, the chief of the Gandharvas (heavenly musicians). During the spring season, in the company of heavenly dancing girls, Chitraratha once came upon a beautiful forest bursting forth with a great variety of flowers. There he and the girls joined the Gandharvas and many Kinnaras, along with Lord Indra himself, the King of Heaven, who was enjoying a visit there. Everyone felt that there was no better garden than this forest. Many sages were also present, performing their austerities and penances. The demigods particularly enjoyed visiting this celestial garden during the months of Chaitra and Vaisakha (April-May).
"A great sage named Medhavi resided in that forest, and the very attractive dancing girls would always attempt to seduce him. One famous girl in particular, Manjughosha, contrived many ways to allure the exalted Muni, but out of great respect for the sage and feat of his power, which he had attained after years and years of ascetics, she would not come very close to him. At a spot two miles from the sage, she pitched a tent and began singing very sweetly as she played a tamboura. Cupid himself became excited when he saw and heard her perform so nicely and smelled the fragrance of her sandal-paste unguent. He remembered his own unfortunate experience with Lord Shiva and decided to take revenge by seducing medhavi.
"Using the eyebrows of Manjughosha as a bow, her glances as a bowstring, her eyes as arrows, and her breasts as a target, Cupid approached Medhavi in order to tempt him to break his trance and his vows. In other words, Cupid engaged Manjughosha as his assistant, and when she looked at that powerful and attractive young sage, she also became agitated by lust. Seeing that he was highly intelligent and learned, wearing a clean white brahmana's thread draped across his shoulder, holding a sannyasi's staff, and sitting handsomely in the asrama of Chyavana Rishi, Manjughosha came before him.
"She began to sing seductively, and the small bells of her belt and around her ankles, together with the bangles on her wrists, produced a delightful musical symphony. The sage Medhavi was enchanted. He understood that this beautiful young woman desired union with him, and at that instant Cupid increased his attraction for Manjughosha by releasing his powerful weapons of taste, touch, sight, smell, and sound.
"Slowly Manjughosha approached Medhavi, her bodily movements and sweet glances attracting him. She gracefully put her tamboura down and embraced the sage with her two arms, just as a creeper winds itself around a strong tree. Captivated, Medhavi gave up his meditation and decided to sport with her - and instantly his purity of heart and mind abandoned him. Forgetting even the difference between night and day, he went away with her to sport for a long, long time.
"Seeing that the young yogi's sanctity had become seriously eroded, Manjughosha decided to abandon him and return home. She said. "O great one, please permit me to return home."
"Medhavi replied, "But you have only just arrived, O beautiful one. Please stay with me at least until tomorrow."
"Fearful of the sage's yogic power, Manjughosha stayed with Medhavi for precisely fifty-seven years, nine months, and three days, but to Medhavi all this time seemed like a moment. Again she asked him, "Please permit me to leave."
"Medhavi replied, "O dear one, listen to me. Stay with me for one more night, and then you may leave tomorrow morning. Just stay with me until I have performed my morning duties and chanted toe sacred Gayatri mantra. Please wait until then."
"Manjughosha was still fearful of the sage's great yogic power, but she forced a smile and said, "How long will it take you to finish your morning hymns and rituals? Please be merciful and think of all the time you have already spent with me."
"The sage reflected on the years he had been with Manjughosha and then said with great astonishment. "Why, I have spent more than fifty-seven years with you!" His eyes turned red and began to emanate sparks. He now regarded Manjughosha as death personified and the destroyer of his spiritual life. "You rascal woman! You have turned all the hard-earned results of my austerities to ashes!" Trembling with anger, he cursed Manjughosha, "Oh sinful one, Oh hard-hearted, degraded one! You know only sin! May all terrible fortune by yours! Oh rascal woman, I curse you to become an evil hobgoblin - Pishacha!"
"Cursed by the age Medhavi, the beautiful Manjughosha humbly beseeched him, "Oh best of the brahmanas, please be merciful to me and revoke your curse! Oh great one, it is said that association with pure devotees gives immediate results but their curses take effect only after seven days. I have been with you for fifty-seven years, Oh master, so please be kind to me!"
"Medhavi Muni replied, "Oh gentle lady what can I possibly do? You have destroyed all my austerities. But even though you have done this sinful deed, I shall tell you a way you can be released from my wrath. In the dark fortnight of the month of Chaitra there is an all-auspicious ekadasii that removes all one's sins. Its name is Papamochanii, Oh beautiful one, and whoever fasts on this sacred day becomes completely freed from having to take birth in any kind of devilish form."
"With these words, the sage left at once for his father's Ashrama. Seeing him enter the hermitage, Chyavana Muni said, "Oh son, by acting unlawfully you have squandered the wealth of your penances and austerities."
"Medhavi replied, "Oh Father, kindly reveal what atonement I must perform to remove the obnoxious sin I have incurred by privately associating with the dancing girl Manjughosha."
"Chyavana Muni answered, "Dear son, you must fast on Papamochanii Ekadasii, which occurs during the dark fortnight of the month of Chaitra. It eradicates all sins, no matter how grievous they may be."
"Medhavi followed his father's advice and fasted on Papamochanii Ekadasii. Thus all his sins were destroyed and he again became filled with excellent merit. Similarly. Manjughosha observed the same fast and became free of the hobgoblin curse. Ascending once again to the heavenly spheres, she too returned to her former position.'
"Lomasha Rishi continued, 'Thus, Oh king, the great benefit of fasting on Papamochanii Ekadasii is that whoever does so with faith and devotion will have all his sins completely destroyed.' Sri Krishna concluded, "Oh King Yudhishthira, whoever reads or hears about Papamochanii Ekadasii obtains the very same merit he would get if he donated a thousand cows in charity, and he also nullifies the sinful reactions he may have incurred by killing a brahmana, killing an embryo through abortion, drinking liquor, or having sex with his guru's wife. Such is the incalculable benefit of properly observing this holy day of Papamochanii Ekadasii, which is so dear to Me and so meritorious."
Thus ends the narration of the glories of Chaitra-Krishna ekadasii, or papamochaniii ekadasii, from the Bhavishya-uttara purana.

a temple or church that allows pedophiles and covers up for them can never deliver a single soul
