Why are Madhu Pandit's Akshaya Patra devotees disturbing the preaching of Dayalu Nitai and the Prabhupadanuga devotees of Hare Krishna Community (HKC) Jaipur?
Soon after ISKCON Bangalore arrived in Jaipur and built their Akshaya Patra temple, some of the devotees staying there have been maliciously disrupting the preaching activities of the Hare Krishna Community devotees (who were already established and preaching successfully in Jaipur for years). IB/AP wanted HKC to move 200 miles away to Jodhpur and become another of their AP branches, but HKC wanted to continue their services in Jaipur and remain independent as Srila Prabhupada instructed.
“I wish that each and every branch shall keep their separate identity and cooperate keeping the acharya in the center. On this principle we can open any number of branches all over the world. The RamaKrishna mission works on this principle and thus as an organization they have done wonderfully.” (Prabhupada Letter, February 11, 1967)
HKC have been trying for 4-5 years to arrange an istaghosti meeting with Madhu Pandit and other IB/AP senior devotees to peacefully resolve this problem but so far they have all refused to participate. Now, since this matter has became public, ISKCON Bangalore are blatantly mis-representing and ignoring the true facts. Instead of meeting to settle this issue they are now trying to further defame and demonize Dayalu Nitai & the HKC devotees on their official 'ISKCON Truth' & 'ISKCON Times' websites by saying that HKC are "attacking Madhu Pandit", trying to link them to Dayaram, Radhanath & the bogus-ISKCON GBC, saying they are "using Akshaya Patra's name/logo to collect donations", calling Dayalu Nitai a "crook", saying they "support homosexual acaryas" and "sympathise with the bogus-guru program" and so on, without presenting ANY actual evidence for these offensive FALSE accusations:
“Apaisunam means that one should not find fault with others or correct them unnecessarily. Of course to call a thief a thief is not faultfinding, but to call an honest person a thief is very much offensive for one who is making advancement in spiritual life.” (Bhagavad-gita 16.1-3)
UPDATE 11/5/14: As well as not allowing any comments on their "Truth Revealed" articles on their 'ISKCON Times' and 'ISKCON Truth' websites, IB group are also deleting all the comments made on their 'ISKCON Truth' FB page. Around 20 comments made by various devotees were deleted yesterday. So much for "Truth" (the last leg of Dharma in Kali-yuga).

Hare Krishna,
ReplyDeleteplease accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
The unfortunate answer is that Madhu Pandit Dasa is not even willing to cooperate to serve Srila Prabhupada.
On Gaurapurnima 2014 I went with HKC devotees to Akshaya Patra Jaipur in order to invite the Akshaya Patra devotees for the Prabhupadanuga Festival. We just offered them to make peace, have Kirtan and discuss how we can cooperate to serve Srila Prabhupada’s mission. But the vice president of Akshaya Patra Jaipur (Ananta Shesha Dasa) immediately rejected the invitation. So they do not want to cooperate.
Madhu Pandit seems to be going the same road the catholic church has gone. Building expensive temples while the general mass of people suffers. No farm communities, no gurukul, no street sankirtan. All these things are done by Hare Krishna Community Jaipur.
Before I came to India, I was naive and thought Bangalore is the only hope for the Prabhupadanugas worldwide. But now that I know their real nature, I can only advice to stop donating to them. These american style mega churches is not what this movement needs.

Hare Krishna !
ReplyDeleteI am student in Jaipur, doing b.tech. Attending HKC’s youth preaching program from last 3 years.
Akshay Patra devotees have done great disservice here by making false stories about HKC Jaipur in last 4 years. They have misled the many students by telling false stories. They even send SMS to students that HKC is bogus. We have all the proofs (SMS, Call recordings).
Just want to know when Madhu Pandit prabhu will come for meeting ??? HKC devotees are writing him from last 4-5 years , all the mails are available but instead of stopping this great disturbance done by AP devotees he is keeping quiet. Is there any TRUTHFUL person in IB/AP group who can come forward for a peaceful meeting ????
Please Madhu Pandit prabhu you are very senior come forward for meeting and have a peaceful solution so that we can serve our Spiritual Master Srila Prabhupada.
Yours

I am shocked that so called Prabhupadanugas are fighting against other Prabhupadanugas instead of combined fighting against bogus IskCON gurus.
ReplyDeletePuranjana with his usual terminology twisting the facts criticising the prabhupadanugas.eu for publishing misleading articles. But it is actually Puranjana misleading devotees with his “hate-rhetoric” against Dayalu Nitai. Puranjana has been exposed already by Prahlad Prabhu and others for instigating.
I fully agree with Prahlad Prabhu: it is shocking that the official ISKCON Times website has published Puranjanas misleading statements, completely twisting the real facts. Tim Lee clearly suffers from serious mental disorders.
Hari Krishna
ReplyDeleteAll glories to our dear Spiritual Master HDG Srila Prabhupada.
PAMHO.
I am still amazed why no senior devotee, MPP, CPP or IB GBC member, from IB group is not coming publicly to resolve this whole issue, which is of-course very unpleasant.
Instead of resolving the issue Iskcon Bangalore is more and more twisting the issue by publishing these article of PADA, who was a small hero at a time but not now. Now PADA/Puranjana is no more in good state of mind. We can see all this very clearly, he is master in misinterpreting the things.
Things are very very clear in the letters of Dayalu prabhu and these can be resolved if IB/AP devotees stop their acts and sit together with HKC devotees for a peaceful solution.
Yes I think they should preach together and stop the politics, I have been to the Jaipur center, and they are doing a great job, people should not be envious of others when they are being successful, The main point here is go out to the streets and distribute Srila Prabhuapad Books.
