In ISKCON LA they change everything even the name of the Deities !

Devotees sometimes ask me ,why have they changed Srila Prabhupadas books at the BBT in ISKCON LA .well they like to change everything.For example when Sri Sri Radha Krsna where to be installed the devotees without Srila Prabhupadas permission called the Deities Sri Sri Rukmini Dvarakadish , Srila Prabhupada corrected them and said they are Radha Krsna..but allowed the names to remain so thus when you go to ISKCON LA you see Radha Krsna called Rukmini Dvarakadish .It is Rasa Bhasa as Krsna does not play flute in 3 fold bending form in Dvaraka unless He manifest Nava Vrindavana as explained in Brhad Bhagavatamrta .

So we do not like to point out faults but it should be mentioned. Srila Prabhupada did not like they changed the name of Radha Krsna and he did not like they changed his books in ISKCON LA, but maybe one day they will learn? Or maybe never?

Srila Prabhupada also said serve only ekadasi prasadam on Gaura Purnima now they changed that and serve grains like many temples in ISKCON ,what ever Srila Prabhupada said they want to do the opposite

How I know they do not follow the fasting given by Srila Prabhupada ? From Brghupati Prabhu and also from my initiated disciple Isvara Puri Prabhu that served couple years ago in ISKCON LA and he asked me Gurudeva why here at ISKCON LA do they take grains on Gaura Purnima and Visnu tattva days ?What was I supposed to tell him but they are deviating ?

"So far the Advent Day of Lord Caitanya is concerned, I have written a full suggestion to Montreal, in which the main points are that we should all observe strict fasting up till moonrise, and at that time, an offering is made to Lord Caitanya of Ekadasi foods, fruits, peanuts, milk, and so forth. Then, on the next day, Friday the 15th, a full-scale feast is held to celebrate His Advent Day. On the 14th, chanting, reading of Srila Bhaktivinode's book, Life and Precepts and Caitanya Caritamrta, Introduction to Bhagavatam, may be held all the day in the Temple."
