Howling Jackals…

Yes… we have had some interesting responses in relationship to the recent documentary, “The Cost of Silence”.
The Prime Minister of the UK, Mr. David Cameron was sent the link along with photographs of himself with some members of the Hare Krishna leadership featured in that documentary.
Unlike the other e-mails I sent to the ISKCON leadership…
I actually got a reply.
Here it is.

Dear Mr Powell
I am writing on behalf of the Prime Minister to thank you for your email of 17 June.
Your email is receiving attention.
Kind regards
Correspondence Officer
Direct Communications Unit
Several other Members of Parliament also were sent the link, as they too appeared in similar photos.
While a great number of members of the greater community expressed their support and gratitude for the documentary,
here’s what came from the party faithful…
Apart from GBC Anuttama das’s predictable response…
according to Jayadeva das… a disciple of Sivarama Swami… anyone who questions the activities of Indradyumna Swami is… “a howling jackal”.
Or… according to Jaya Gopal das… another of Sivarama Swami’s disciples…
that well worn favourite…
“flies seeking stool”.
One would have hoped for an intelligent rebuttal rather than a cheap insult, but obviously…
that’s not going to happen.
Oh… and several of the party leadership have issued a threat of legal action.
