ISKCON in not a brothel

We are establishing different centers, not for sense enjoyment, but for good

association of devotees. If we miss this, those who are working, those who

are managers of this institution, they must always know that we cannot make

this institution or this center as a brothel. There must be such management

and or such arrangement that we must have always good association for

advancement. That is required.

I wrote : http://nimaipandit.ning.com/profiles/blogs/feeding-poor-kids-in-india

Srila Prabhupada had no doubts about increasing prasadam distribution among the poor as well:

angry and offended when I asked them to show where is sastra this was from, and withina complete 5 minutes they realized this sannyasi had spoken a complete speculation.
