Temple life dealing with cut throat mentality

Temple life dealing with cut throat mentality

One thing I learned in ISKCON is there is the same cut throat mentality as in the material world and yes in Gaudiya math also .It is part of the material world that one living entity is food for another and thus there is always a kind of competition going on
TEXT 47
ahastāni sahastānām
apadāni catuṣ-padām
phalgūni tatra mahatāṁ
jīvo jīvasya jīvanam
SYNONYMS
ahastāni—those who are devoid of hands; sa-hastānām—of those who are endowed with hands; apadāni—those who are devoid of legs; catuḥ-padām—of those who have four legs; phalgūni—those who are weak; tatra—there; mahatām—of the powerful; jīvaḥ—the living being; jīvasya—of the living being; jīvanam—subsistence.
TRANSLATION
Those who are devoid of hands are prey for those who have hands; those devoid of legs are prey for the four-legged. The weak are the subsistence of the strong, and the general rule holds that one living being is food for another.
PURPORT
A systematic law of subsistence in the struggle for existence is there by the supreme will, and there is no escape for anyone by any amount of planning. The living beings who have come to the material world against the will of the Supreme Being are under the control of a supreme power called māyā-śakti, the deputed agent of the Lord, and this daivī māyā is meant to pinch the conditioned souls by threefold miseries, one of which is explained here in this verse: the weak are the subsistence of the strong. No one is strong enough to protect himself from the onslaught of a stronger, and by the will of the Lord there are systematic categories of the weak, the stronger and the strongest. There is nothing to be lamented if a tiger eats a weaker animal, including a man, because that is the law of the Supreme Lord. But although the law states that a human being must subsist on another living being, there is the law of good sense also, for the human being is meant to obey the laws of the scriptures. This is impossible for other animals. The human being is meant for self-realization, and for that purpose he is not to eat anything which is not first offered to the Lord. The Lord accepts from His devotee all kinds of food preparations made of vegetables, fruits, leaves and grains. Fruits, leaves and milk in different varieties can be offered to the Lord, and after the Lord accepts the foodstuff, the devotee can partake of the prasāda, by which all suffering in the struggle for existence will be gradually mitigated. This is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (9.26). Even those who are accustomed to eat animals can offer foodstuff, not to the Lord directly, but to an agent of the Lord, under certain conditions of religious rites. Injunctions of the scriptures are meant not to encourage the eaters of animals, but to restrict them by regulated principles.
The living being is the source of subsistence for other, stronger living beings. No one should be very anxious for his subsistence in any circumstances because there are living beings everywhere, and no living being starves for want of food at any place. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira is advised by Nārada not to worry about his uncles' suffering for want of food, for they could live on vegetables available in the jungles as prasāda of the Supreme Lord and thus realize the path of salvation.
Exploitation of the weaker living being by the stronger is the natural law of existence; there is always an attempt to devour the weak in different kingdoms of living beings. There is no possibility of checking this tendency by any artificial means under material conditions; it can be checked only by awakening the spiritual sense of the human being by practice of spiritual regulations. The spiritual regulative principles, however, do not allow a man to slaughter weaker animals on one side and teach others peaceful coexistence. If man does not allow the animals peaceful coexistence, how can he expect peaceful existence in human society? The blind leaders must therefore understand the Supreme Being and then try to implement the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God, or Rāma-rājya, is impossible without the awakening of God consciousness in the mass mind of the people of the world.

.The competition mood in book distribution is exploited by ISKCON leaders to raise money for themselves they do not have actually compassion for the conditioned souls. This shows by them never going on book distribution .It is a kind of envious grhamedhi mentality I am better than you .Because while living in the temple they do the same as the materialist .Exploit each other, I have seen how Tribhuvanath das was able to steal money from the Irish Sankirtana team and as the Sankirtana leader at the time I was opposed he touch a penny of the Laxmi we collected .The LAxmi was for maintaining the Temple and preaching of ISKCON Inis Rath and ISKCON Dublin ..not for him to play God with .The same I saw in Harikesa and many other Prabhupada disciples,, not going out on book distribution and then find so many imaginary faults with the Sankirtana devotees and at the end of the day steal the money not meant for them .Like some kind of Vultures out of hell Rurus .I have seen it in Copenhagen where on Lalitanath das benefited from stealing unemployment money devotees were getting from the Danish Goverment. Devamrta Swami started all this scam .In Washington DC one Sastivara das took a Salary and then on top of that he was stealing whatever I collected on bookdistribution.This demon had not chanted Hare Krsna for years and lived like a total Grhamedhi but still he was made a Tp.The untrained TP and other leaders have been the problem in ISKCON for years.Now in ISKCON Denmark there is a devotee from Ukraine disciple of Bhakti Caitanya Swami that joined ISKCON a few years ago and he has no respect for senior devotees, a materialist that grows his beard.Though initiated devotees do not keep bears but Bhakti Caitanya Swami is not training his disciples as I have seen when I visited ISKCON Sandton in 2019.He himself is not properly trained because he is always finding ways for devotees and congregation to give him more and more donations.Still at times he becomes the GBC chairman.But they are all materialist.Bhanu Swami does not even put Vaisnava tilaka on and goes to the gym for hours daily , because the Tp of ISKCON of Madras now Chennai complained to me.Bhanu Swami also promotes that it is ok to take grains on Nityananda Trayodasi though , in the 100 names of Srila Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya it is clearly mentioned one shoud fast on Nityananda Trayodasi ,in this way ISKCON is being corrupt.The serving of grains on Visnutattva days also goes on in many ISKCON tempes if not most still because our demoniac GBC instituted it .AM I CALLING THE GBC FOR DEMONS ,yes you bet, because Haribhakti Vilasa says that if anyone makes you take grains on Ekadasi or Visnutattva days such a person is of of demoniac mentality and is in the line of the demon Sukracarya ,the worst part is the GBC's knows it is wrong to serve grains on Visnutattva days but they do it anyway.I was in ISKCON New York last year for Janmastami , and Hansarupa the TP serves grains on Janmastami , has he become a demon ? Certainly ..Wether we like it or not ISKCON has become corrupt and one blind is leading another blind stuffing their faces in grains feasts on days like Narasimha Catrudasi and disrespecting Lord Narasimha

I wrote an email to Dravida many years ago he never talked to me again as he can not handle the truth December 2010

the name is not "Payo", and please stop encouraging taking grains on Visnutattva days


My dear Dravida Prabhu
Please accept my humble obaisences
All glories to Srila Prabhupada
It was good talking to you a month ago.I like to point out on more time that taking grains on Visnuttatva days will prevent one from going back to Godhead and will
cause one to take birth again, it is there in Hari Bhakti Vilasa.As the leading person in the BBT department for the vaisnava calender it is your duty to Srila Prabhupada and Lord Caitanya to specificit is fast from grains, failure to do so will in cure great karmic reactions for you and the BBT, what to speak of those GBC.s and TP and sannyasis that allow all their
followers to take grains.Even if you do Nirjala on all these days personally as you told me you do on ekadasi, if one takes grains on Janmastami all ones fasting becomes nil.
Sin personified also enters grains on Visnutattva apperance days just like on ekadasi, but one fool speculated there is no reaction to taking grains on Janmastami etc.
I send you and others a very polite email about not taking grains

http://nimaipandit.ning.com/profiles/blogs/real-followers-of-srila .Even if one himself observes all these days properly including Visnutattva apperance days but misleads others to think it is ok to take grains on these days
what to speak of serving grains.Then sadly speaking but truthful one places obstacles in ones own path back to Godhead and others.It is that simple.
And Prabhu kindly do not call me Payo, this unvaisna like behavior was started by the late homosexual Guru, Rohini Kumara.The name is Payonidhi das, servant of Supreme
Lords that rest in the Ocean of milk,Lord Narayana, that wants us to observe these thing properly, and He is the Paramatma also, trying to guide us to go back to the spiritual world.
I always appreciate you very much and have much love and affection for you as my dear God uncle.So kindly forgive me speaking so strongly, I would have called you once more
but was told you number got disconnected .Here locally Anuttama das allows the serving of grains on all Visnutattva days and does not consult with anyone and says it is in the vaisnava calendar that you can take grains composed by you and Arcita so he is "just following", this is of course very irresponsible And many tempels in the US still serves grains on Janamstami and Gaura Purnima etc...
your servant
Paramananda das

Arcita and Dravida das are single handedly responsible for all the grain feast served in ISKCON USA, they are just blind following another blind

Skanda Purana states:

matr ha pitr has caiva bhratr ha guru has tatha
ekadasyas tu ya bhunkte visnu-lokac cyuto bhavet

“Those who eat grains on Ekadasi and on the Day of Lord Hari (including Janmastami, Gaura Purnima etc.) obtain the sin equal to killing one’s own mother, own father, own brother and own Guru; and they cannot reach the spiritual world, which is why one should never eat grains on fasting days.”

yani kani ca papani brahma hatyadikani ca
annam asritya tiathanti samprapte hari vasare

“Every type of sin in this world, including the grievous sin of killing a Brahmana, reside in food grains on the Day of Lord Hari (Ekadasi and other fasting days). If grains are eaten on fasting days sins enter the body of that human being.”

Padma Purana:

bhuyo-bhuyo drdha vani sryatam syata janah
na bhoktavyam na bhoktavyam na bhoktavyam harer dine

“O human beings, please listen, I tell you repeatedly with steadfast determination, please never eat any grains on the Day of Lord Hari (Ekadasi day, the Lord’s appearance day like Janmastami day etc.). Please never eat any food grains even by mistake on the Day of Lord Hari. Please do not eat grains on the Day of Lord Hari even if forced or compelled to do so.”

na saiva na ca saurohasaun na sakta gana sevakah
yo bhunkte vasare visnor jneyah pasvadiko hi sah

“Whether one is a follower of Lord Siva, the goddess Durga, Kali, Surya (sungod), Ganesa, Bhairava or any other demigod, they should avoid eating grains on the fasting days of Lord Hari (Ekadasis and other fasting days of Lord Hari). If one does not rigidly follow this rule and eats grains on fasting days they are considered worse than an animal.”

The Brihan Naradiya Purana states:

brahma-hatyadi papanam kathancin niskrtir bhavet
ekadasyat tu yo bhunkte niskrtir nasti kutracit

“By rigidly following religious and ritualistic processes one may become free from grievous sin like killing a Brahmana, but it is impossible to eliminate the sins of those who eat grains on Ekadasi days.”

It is written in the Skanda Purana that Lord Yamaraja (superintendent of hell) told his messengers not even to go near the immediate three generations of those who fast on Ekadasi days and Visnu tattva days , even if they are lowborn and full of sin. But even if a pious person is learned in the four Vedas and performs rituals and is pure, but eats grains on Ekadasi days and Visnutattva days , they must be taken to hell to suffer.


Today is the day of Lord Narasimha as stated in Sanu Stuti the prayer of Sanidev to Lord Narasimha, I pray to Lord Narasimha this irreligion in ISKCON be torn to pieces by the nails of Lord Narasimha

Please chant the prayer to Lord Narasimha every Saturday and lets pray Lord Narasimha will remove this fallen behavir from ISKCON once and for all

I posted this many years ago on Dandavats.com I believe in 2007 under my old ISKCON name :

By Payonidhi das

We have just found these prayers to Lord Narasimha on the Acaraya folio, they are prayers offered by Saturn Personified, Sri Sani deva, Saturn is so much feared that in India on Saturday some persons collect donations for his worship with his deity form covered in mustard oil. Actually he is great devotee of Lord Narasimhadeva. Many devotees are spending much money on astrology and yajnas to counteract the influence of inauspicious planets or constellations, Lord Narasimha protects one from the influence of so-called bad planets and make them auspiscious for ones devotional planets .Sri Shani is obviously a great devotee of Lord Narasimha as is evident from this text.

I just travelled with a devotee to South India who was going to spend 1000th of dollars for having bad planetary influence counteracted.There is no need simply please take shelter of the Lotus feet of Lord Narasimhadeva as shown by Sri Sani. Saturn is the day of Lord Narasimhadeva and a perfect day to worship Lord Narasimha.

Śrī Śanaiścara-krta Śrī Narasimha Stuti

Everyone is afraid of the malefic planet Śani because generally he is associated with extreme sorrow and suffering. However, Śanideva himself has devised a way of solving this problem by obtaining the blessings of Lord Nṛsiṁha.

Shani made an agreement with the Lord that he would never trouble those who recite his Nṛsiṁha Stuti when they are facing troubles related to dvādaśa-aṣṭama-pañcama (a situation where Śani-kāta lasts for 7 1/2 births) [Sade Saati]

If one recites with devotion Śani’s Śrī Nṛsiṁha Stuti, especially on Śanivāra (Saturdays) and when Śani graha comes to 12-8-5 Janma Rāśi or 10th AL, one will please the Lord who is the Supersoul of Shanaishchara and the Lord will remove all obstacles and suffering and bless His devotee.

sulabho bhakti yuktānāṁ durdarśo duṣṭa cetasāṁ |
ananya gatikānām ca prabhu bhaktaika-vatsalaḥ
śanaiścara tatra nṛsiṁha-deva cakārāmala-citta-vṛtiḥ |
praṇamya ṣaṣṭāṅgam aśeśa-loka kirīta nīrājita pāda-padmam || 1 |

Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva is easily accessible to the devotees and punishes those who are evil-minded. He is the saviour for those who are helpless who desire to seek refuge in Him. When the demigods of innumerable planets bow down to His lotus feet, the bright jewels from their crowns are reflected on His toenails which gives the impression that lamps are being waved in front of them.

Unto His lotus feet, Śanideva prostrated and prayed (in the court of Brahmā).

śrī śanir-uvāca –
yat pāda-pankaja-raja paramādharena
saṁsevitam sakala kalmaśa rāśī-nāśam |
kalyāṇa kārakam aśeṣanijānugānam |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||2||

Śrī Śani said –
By the mercy of the dust of Your lotus feet which destroy a multitude of sins, grant infinite auspiciousness to Your devotee who always worships Your lotus feet with devotion. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

sarvatra cancalatayā sthitayāpi lakṣmyāḥ |
brahmādi-vandya-padayā stirayānya sevi ||
pādāravinda-yugalaṁ paramā-dharena |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā valokam||3||

Your lotus feet are worshipped by Goddess Lakṣmī, even though She is fickle by nature (cancala) and by Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva whose feet are worthy of worship with devotion. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

yad rūpam āgama-śiraḥ pratipādhyamādhya |
ādhyātmikādi paritāpa haram vicintyam ||
yogīśvarair apathagākhila doṣa saṅghaiḥ |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||4||

By contemplating or meditating upon Your appearance, which is expounded in the Vedas extensively, the best of the saints are liberated from the three-fold miseries and from all misfortunes. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

prahlāda bhakta vacasā harir āvirāsa |
stambhe hiraṇyakaśipuṁ ya udhārabhāvaḥ ||
urvau nidhāya udharam nakhārai dadhāra |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||5||

By the word of His devotee named Prahlāda, Lord Hari, who is generous and kind, appeared from a pillar and by placing Hiraṇyakaśipu on His thighs split open the his stomach with His nails. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

yo naija bhaktaṁ analāmbudhi bhūdharogra |
śṛṇga-prapāta viśa dhamti sarīsupebhyaḥ |
sarvātmakaḥ parama-kāruṇiko rarakṣa |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||6||

You protected your own devotee Prahlāda from a raging fire, the deep ocean, from falling from a tall mountain peak, poison, a mad elephant and the fangs of poisonous serpents. You are omnipresent and supremely generous. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

yannirvikāra para-rūpa vicintanena |
yogīśvarā viśaya sāgara vīta rāgāḥ ||
viśrāmtim āpura-vināśa vatīṁ parākhyāṁ |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||7||

By meditating upon He whose great form is devoid of imperfections, the best of the saints attained liberation from the ocean of materialistic attachments and obtained unmitigated salvation. O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

yad rūpam-ugra parimardana bhāva śāli |
saṁcintanena sakalāgha vināśa kāri |
bhūta jvara graha samudbhava bhīti nāśam |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||8||

By meditating upon He whose form is fearsome, all peace, happiness and prosperity can be obtained, all sins can be obliterated, the fear arising from evil spirits, fevers and unfavorable planetary positions can be removed, O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

yasyottamaṁ yaśa umā-patim padma-janma |
śakrādi daivata sabhāsu samasta-gītam ||
śaktaiva sarvaśa-mala praśamaika dakṣam |
sa tvam nṛsiṁha mayi dehi kṛpā-valokam ||9||

Your transcendental fame is sung gloriously in all the divine assemblies of Śiva, Brahmā and Indra etc. and whose power is steadfast in wiping out all impurities, O Lord Nṛsiṁha, please bestow upon me Your merciful side-long glance.

evam śrutvā stutiṁ devaḥ
śanināṁ kalpitāṁ hariḥ |
uvāca brahma vṛndasta
śaniṁ taṁ bhakta-vatsalaḥ ||10||

On listening to the heartfelt prayer composed by Śanideva in the assembly of Lord Brahmā, Lord Hari who is ever compassionate to His devotees, spoke to Śanideva as follows.

śrī nṛsiṁha uvāca –
prasannoham śane tubhyaṁ |
varam varaya śobhanaṁ ||
yaṁ vāñchasi tameva tvam |
sarva-loka hitāvaham ||11||

Śrī Nṛsiṁha said –
O Śani, I am pleased with your devotion. What ever you desire that will benefit the world, ask for that kind of boon and I will grant it.

śrī śanir uvāca –
nṛsiṁha tvam mayi kṛpām
kuru deva dayā-nidhe |
mad vāsaras tava prīti-
kara syat devatā-pate ||12||

mat kṛtam tvat param stotraṁ
śṛṇvanti ca paṭanti ca |
sarvān kāman pūrayetās
teśām tvaṁ loka-bhāvanaḥ ||13||

Śrī Śanideva replied –
O Lord Nṛsiṁha, O reservoir of compassion, please be kind to me. O Lord of all gods, let my week-day (Saturday) be Your favorite day. O Purifier of all the worlds, may You fulfill the desires of all those who listen to or read this great prayer to You composed by me.”

śrī nṛsiṁha uvāca –
tataivāstu śaneham vai
rakṣo-bhuvana saṁsthitaḥ |
bhakta kāmān pūrayiśye
tvaṁ mamaika vacaḥ śṛṇu ||

tvat kṛtam mat param stotram
yaḥ paṭecchṛṇu yāccha yaḥ |
dvādaśāṣṭama janmastād
bhayaṁ māstu tasya vai ||14||

Śrī Nṛsiṁha said –
O Śani, let it be so! By virtue of My being the universal protector (rakṣobhuvana), I fulfill the desires of all My devotees. Please listen to My words -let there be no fear of the twelfth and eighth birth positions (and implicitly any unfavorable birth positions) and consequent troubles from you for any one who reads or listens to this prayer to Me composed by you.

śani narahariṁ devaṁ
tateti pratyuvāca ha
tataḥ parama-saṁtuṣṭo
jayeti munayovadan ||15||

Then Śanideva replied to Lord Narahari that he would follow the Lord’s instructions. Then the joyful saints and sages present there (in Brahma’s assembly) responded with cries of, ‘jaya, jaya!’”.

śrī kṛṣṇa uvāca –
itam śanaiścarasyāta nṛsiṁha deva |
samvādam etat stavanaṁ ca mānavaḥ ||
śṛṇoti yaḥ śrāvayate ca bhaktyā
sarvānyābhīṣṭāni ca vindate dhruvam ||16||

Śrī Kṛṣṇa told Dharmarāja, “Whoever listens to or recites this conversation between Śanideva and Lord Nṛsiṁha in the form of this prayer of devotion will definitely have all desires fulfilled and will always rejoice.”

iti śrī bhaviṣyottara purāṇe rakṣobhuvana mahātme śrī
śanaiścara kṛta śrī nṛsiṁha stuti sampūrṇam

Thus ends the prayers offered to the universal protector Śrī Narasimha by the great soul Śani.



your servant
Paramananda das

PS yesterday I heard from Sadhusangananda how he as TP for ISKCON Boston also served grains on Visnutattva days , so I am actually glad he renounced being the TP because otherwise he would have continued serving demon in ISKCON that promote grain feasts even on Janmastami

the Puranas are clear those who take grains and serve grains on Janmastami are demons and thus they go to hell and after that becomes a snake in the forest, but Hansarupa and others keep serving grains on Janmastami as they are envious grhamedhis ,,, is this strong enough for you ? The truth shall set you free, if you choose to be free, I have been always like a Vidura in ISKCON speaking the bitter truth , this is not to compare myself to him , but same function.
Thus the Durdyodhana party in ISKCON are not happy with me,properly planning how to kill me..I know Devamrta Swami also wanted to have me killed by Kirtananda in 1991 when I called him from ISKCON Boston and told him ,You are serving a demon , Kirtananda is a demon that had devotees killed, and he is both a homosexual and pedophile..he said should I tell Kirtananda all this ? I said yes go ahead tell him all I said ...I think he did not tell him otherwise Kirtananda would have send another Tirtha to shoot me..but I take it Lord Narasimha protected me.Harikesa also told me in 1986 that do not talk about Bhavananda ,Satadhanya or Nitai Chand having had sex with Guru Kula boys, otherwise Bhavanandas men will kill you a direct threat to my life by Harikesa to cover up for these 3 pedofiles so this is one of the many reasons Harikesa fell down.Can you handle the truth.Srila Prabhupada has told me in my dreams many times keep fighting irreligion in ISKCON it is direct service to me and you should know it from me directly .
