Editing out Srila Prabhupada from ISKCON

Nope… I must confess… I haven’t read H.H. Bhakti Vikas Swami’s controversial book from cover to cover.
But…
if, as Bhakti Vikas Swami says…
his book is a compilation of quotes from the books of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada…
then why should they not be displayed and promoted in Srila Prabhupada’s temples?
Whatever next…
will Srila Prabhupada’s books also be “banned” because His statements are politically incorrect?
I myself used to post Srila Prabhupada’s letters on the Bhaktivedanta Manor notice boards next to the Indian head massage ads, only to see them removed within minutes.
In the politically correct world…
It’s perfectly legal to slaughter millions of animals.
It’s perfectly legal to take intoxication.
It’s perfectly legal to kill unborn children.
Prostitution…
Gambling…
Need I say more…
One regularly witnesses leading politicians (those responsible for the above)
honoured at ISKCON temples.
One has personally witnessed the late Bhakti Tirtha Swami’s book being openly sold in Srila Prabhupada’s temples.
Radhanatha openly sells his rubbish about himself in Srila Prabhupada’s temples.
Sivarama Swami sells his works containing fictional characters in Srila Prabhupada’s temples.
I’ve seen a book promoting Ayurvedic contraception on the Bhaktivedanta Manor book shelf for sale.
I’ve seen a book by the infamous Sri Galima for sale… same place.
Then we have Jayadwaita Swami’s edited versions.
Srila Prabhupada said…
don’t sell the mineral rights at New Vridavana…
but the present ISKCON leadership did just that.
Srila Prabhupada said…
“Don’t beat the children”
but they did that too.
The perpetrators are in some cases protected and honoured
by the ISKCON leadership.
“No salary”… that’s in the bin as well.
“We’re not Hindus”… bye bye.
Financial transparency…
another casualty.
But to quote Srila Prabhupada, the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON, is a very serious offence.
Luckily…
the ISKCON management fortunately still has its damage control team ready to rally the party faithful…
to convince them the present ISKCON leadership still has integrity.
It would appear…
Malati dasi has joined the team.
