My dear Turyadas Prabhu,
Please accept my blessings. I beg to acknowledge receipt your letter dated Feb.16, 1977.
Please continue to increase the deity worship and teach others to become a very good pujari like you. When I see my disciples doing deity worship nicely that engladdens me. ‘Sevonmukhe hi jivadau/ svayam eva sphuraty adah’, God realization is possible only by service. That is the only way. He is adhoksaja. ‘Tesam satata-yuktanam bhajantam priti purvakam/ dadami
buddhi-yogam tam yena mam upayanti te’, When one engages in devotional service, Krishna gives intelligence from within. Otherwise, how the unlimited can be served by the limited? So please continue to make the worship more and more beautiful.
Hoping this meets you in good health.
Your ever well-wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: Turyadas — Mayapur 27 February, 1977

Just see the expression on his face: disgust and frustration. He is disgusted with himself and rightly so. But I doubt very much his arrogance and egotistic self will allow such a degree of self-criticism.

It could also be an expression of contempt: In his megalomania, it is contempt for everything non-Jayadavaita including his own spiritual master. He wants to be God, the last snare of Maya! What a madman! What a Maya-man! What an agent of Maya he is!

Additionally his handling of BGAII 16.7, word for word, makes him an immoral individual. This DOES NOT APPLY TO Hayagriva as he handles this passage with all good sense. And as BGAII 18.78 confirms we are definitely after morality.

Jayadvaita the subverter. SUBVERT HIM, THE SUBVERTER. SUBVERT THE SUBVERTER!

Down with him. Kick him in the face as he did figuratively to Srila Prabhupada on innumerable occasions by whimsically and foolishly interfering in Srila Prabhupada original and perfect formulation of BGAII, thus misleading ISKCON and the whole world as well.

UTUBE YOGINDRA PRABHU’S KIRTAN, THE KING OF KIRTAN / DAY3 / KIRTAN RASA 2024/ 4K/ DUBAI KIRTAN MELA .

WHAT MAGNIFICENCE IN DISPLAY HERE !!!!!!! The Best, including mrdanga, flute and clarinet players. YOGINDRA PRABHU IS THE KING OF KIRTAN. THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. And where is the emperor of Kirtan? Is it Yogindra Prabhu? Future will tell.

All things considered and transposed, Henry David Thoreau’s: “In the morning I bathe my intellect in the stupendous and cosmogonal philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita, in comparison with which our modern world and its literature seen puny and trivial.” applies here. I bathe my mind in Yogindra’s Hare Krishna melodies as much as is possible.

UN MOVEMENT DE CORPS. A WELL UNIFIED MESSAGE OF TRANSCENDENTAL POWER OR SHAKTI. AGAIN JUST SEE HOW DRUMS OR MRDANGAS ARE IMPORTANT AND FORM THE VERY CORE OF THE KIRTAN’S RHYTHM. WHO CAN STOP, WHAT TO SPEAK OF DEFEAT SUCH A TSUNAMI OF TRANSCENDENTAL SOUND. THE FLUTE IS AN EXQUISITE EXTRA.( MINUTE 38)

WHO WILL NOT AGREE TO SURRENDER TO THE CASCADE OF TRANSCENDENTAL SOUND AND HAPPINESS AND WILL NOT AGREE TO BE CARRIED AWAY? ONLY THE MOST UNFORTUNATE WILL KEEP THEMSELVES APART FROM LORD CAITANYA’S SANKIRTAN MOVEMENT.

“JAY JAY RADHE JAY JAY SHYAMA JAY VRINDAVAN DHAM”

THIS KIRTAN OFFERING REALLY DOES JUSTICE TO THE DIVINE COUPLE RADHA AND SHYAMA. THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!

Actually there are four different Bhagavad Gitas As It Is.

ONE. THE ORIGINAL TRANSCRIPT (OT)

Srila Prabhupada’s Original Transcript available here https://bookchanges.com/bhagavad-gita-as-it-is-manuscript/ Picture / screen shot above. CONDITION: BELOW AVERAGE. But much nectar can be extracted. It is a meticulous work of decipherment. Some passages are plain missing. It is accepted that Srila Prabhupāda Himself (with a capital H please) typed the first six chapters. Whereas the rest from Chapter 7 to 18 has either been typed by non-Prabhupada entities or edited by the untrustworthy Hayagriva. Hayagriva also sometimes produces absolutely first class renditions. That’s a fact to his credit.

TWO. THE BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS NOT BY HAYAGRIVA

THE BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS NOT by Hayagriva has many childish and adult mistakes. Visually much more attractive than BHAGAVAD GITA As It Is NOT by the subversive Jayadvaita . Preserving the original cover. On Book distribution, people will often comment: “O what a nice cover!” Has some serious mistakes and misleading speculations as well.

THREE. BHAGAVAD GITA As It Is NOT by subverter Jayadvaita

The amount of concoction added by cheater, traitor and subverter Jayadvaita is indescribable.

I have tried to describe many of them and am still adding more to the list as I progress through the OT. Please see on my site various article re this subject matter.

FOUR. The CHALLENGE BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS. Mean to be the most faithful presentation of all Bhagavad Gitas for Srila Prabhupada’s pleasure.

Introduction,

Chapter one,

and chapter two up to text 22 included are ready for publication.

Currently I am finally proof reading chapter 2.

This picture by Yadavendra Das (acbsp1) in ISKCON BRISBANE’s new temple room, April 2026, AUSTRALIA. (HH Indradyumna Maharaja kindly agreed to look at camera.)

In the late 70ties, I had the privilege to be HH Jayapataka Maharaja’s dress adviser as he stopped over in Frankfurt on the way to USA and came to rented Schloss Rettershoff and wanted to go shopping for karmi cloth. I took him to a relevant department store in Frankfurt City, about 40 minute drive. I was awarded this very personal service. JAYAPATAKA means the victory flag a bit like the flag planted by American soldiers at the end of world war two at IWO JIMA. “the Battle of Iwo Jima between February 1945 and March 1945 was some of the fiercest fighting of the Pacific War, with Imperial Japan and the United States both suffering over 20,000 casualties.”  Wikipedia

Rettershof literally means the court of the saviour or the place of the saviour. At least during these years the Schloss was properly used according to its nomenclature, as our business is the save fallen souls. May be we should buy this castle. It’s never too late. Later in the 80ties, HH Suhotra Maharaja was also residing there. In fact he was TP. and we have quite some fun together. All glories to departed HH Suhotra Maharaja. From Wikipedia we learn that Schloss Rettershof was a monastery previously, and it became a Hare Krishna monastery again in the 70ies and 80ies. Jay Sri Krishna

And this is the back of the Schloss where Srila Prabhupada kindly initiated me on the recommendation of HG Hansadutta Prabhu. This happened on the lawn to the right of the picture in June 1974 and there is a video about it. In the Prabhupada records it says there are 3 Yadavendras, all in Germany, but this is highly improbable, and must be some kind of a mistake. This is the place where I experienced the only ghost attack ever and many other experienced it too.

These glorifications are not sentimental. These glorifications are based on Shri Krishna’s own words and verdict in the Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita 9.13:

Ref. VedaBase => Bg 9.13

mahatmanas tu mam partha
daivim prakrtim asritah
bhajanty ananya-manaso
jnatva bhutadim avyayam

Word for word translation
maha-atmanah — the great souls; tu — but; mam — unto Me; partha — O son of Prtha; daivim — divine; prakrtim — nature; asritah — having taken shelter of; bhajanti — render service; ananya-manasah — without deviation of the mind; jnatva — knowing; bhuta — of creation; adim — the origin; avyayam — inexhaustible.

TRANSLATION

O son of Prtha, those who are not deluded, the great souls, are under the protection of the divine nature. They are fully engaged in devotional service because they know Me as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, original and inexhaustible.

PURPORT

In this verse the description of the mahatma is clearly given. The first sign of the mahatma is that he is already situated in the divine nature. He is not under the control of material nature. And how is this effected? That is explained in the Seventh Chapter: one who surrenders unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krsna, at once becomes freed from the control of material nature. That is the qualification. One can become free from the control of material nature as soon as he surrenders his soul to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is the preliminary formula. Being marginal potency, as soon as the living entity is freed from the control of material nature, he is put under the guidance of the spiritual nature. The guidance of the spiritual nature is called daivi prakrti, divine nature. So when one is promoted in that way — by surrendering to the Supreme Personality of Godhead — one attains to the stage of great soul, mahatma.
The mahatma does not divert his attention to anything outside Krsna, because he knows perfectly well that Krsna is the original Supreme Person, the cause of all causes. There is no doubt about it. Such a mahatma, or great soul, develops through association with other mahatmas, pure devotees. Pure devotees are not even attracted by Krsna’s other features, such as the four-armed Maha-Visnu. They are simply attracted by the two-armed form of Krsna. They are not attracted to other features of Krsna, nor are they concerned with any form of a demigod or of a human being. They meditate only upon Krsna in Krsna consciousness. They are always engaged in the unswerving service of the Lord in Krsna consciousness.

2.19 Anyone who thinks that the living entity is killing somebody or that a living entity is being killed by others, does not know a thing. He who is in knowledge knows that nobody kills anybody and nobody is killed by anybody.

Purport. 2.19 When an embodied living entity is hurt by fatal weapons, it is to be known that the living entity within the body is not killed. Because the spirit soul is so small that it is impossible to kill him by any material weapon, as will be evident from the subsequent verses. Nor is the living entity killable, on account of his spiritual constitution. What is killed or is supposed to be killed is the body only. This, however, does not encourage killing of the body at all. The Vedic injunction is “ma himsyat sarva bhutani” never commit violence to anybody. To understand that a living entity is not killed does not mean encouraging animal slaughter. Even killing of the body of anyone without authority is abominable and punishable by the law of the state as well as by the law of the Lord. Arjuna, however, is being engaged in the matter of killing on the principle of religion and not whimsically.
