That leaves us with the problem of how to count Hare Krishna Maha Mantra while driving a vehicle for example, because some of us just don’t have an alternative or other option. Counting beads is absolutely out of question because that entanglement WILL sooner or later CAUSE A CRASH FOR SURE. As one Indian lady at the charity shop reminded me, we may have go back to finger counting. Nothing new here, as Lord Caitanya Himself practiced it 500 years ago. Jai Sri Krishna Caitanya, Prabhu Nityananda, Sri Advaita, Gadadhara, Sri Vasadi Gaura Bhakta vrnda!!!
My latest realisation: Both rendition of Bhagavad Gita As It Is are, unfortunately, MOST UNPROFESSIONAL. They may be qualified instead as SUBJECTIVE AND WHIMSICAL.
It would appear that this is also the state of contemporary ISKCON. Let us, therefore, work VERY HARD toward bringing ISKCON to the state of a world standard, professional, fully efficient and influential Krishna conscious institution. “The best in the world.” as is generally the aspiration for Australian corporations.
Currently we find that the most important BBT Sydney dispatch office, the very heart of the preaching mission, is GREATLY SUB-STANDARD, by literally making it almost impossible to obtain books at will. Moreover the manager has left his post and gone overseas. We do not know the purpose of his trip. This is a very CRAZY and INTOLERABLE SITUATION. Have the responsible BBT authorities lost interest in Book Distribution? Is it their intention to SABOTAGE the preaching effort??? The structure of the BBT SYDNEY dispatch organisation needs a very urgent and thorough overhaul.
In my 28 years of relationship with BBT Sydney, I have never seen such an uncongenial situation, where it has become almost impossible to obtain books at will. This is the LOWEST STANDARD OF BBT SERVICE EVER SEEN!!! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON???????? WAKE UP AND GET GOING. CAN THIS PLEASE BE FIXED PROPERLY ASAP???
OR ALTERNATIVELY, WHY DONT YOU JUST STEP ASIDE AND MORE QUALIFIED STAFF THAN YOU ARE WILL TAKE OVER, BY KRISHNA’S MERCY.
There is now a tinge of parasitism in the Australian BBT, in the sense that instead of making books available at will, the managers of the Australian BBT restrict heavily the supply of books to its customers, so much so that sometimes it is the customers that has to pay extra funds to obtain his shipment. “Save our own BBT money, use other people’s money.” This happened to me. This is my practical experience. And this is just not acceptable. And I should really make a claim to the BBT for the extra freight money I had to pay due to its mismanagement. And which healthy business will behave in that way to make its products more difficult to access for its customers? It is madness. Ordinary business men study how to make their products more easily available to the market. BECAUSE EASINESS OF ACCESS IS MOST IMPORTANT, and MOST PRIMORDIAL TO OBTAIN A SALE. BBT does the opposite. Again it is sheer madness! PLEASE REFORM THIS SITUATION ASAP! Signed: Yadavendra Das (acbsp1).
This also concerns ISKCON Minister for Book Distribution HG Vijay Prabhu who is included in the recipients of the email, as well as Mayapur Sasi Prabhu who is also included.
Today, 24th October 2024, while on Book Distribution Krishna kindly supplied evidence to back my claim. Thank you Krishna! I have no interests whatsoever in the Tesla Company.
The 1 stands for Prabhupada disciple, generation 1, or as it is called sometimes “direct Prabhupada diska disciple” But every faithful ISKCON man and woman is a Prabhupada disciple with a little number 1,2,3,4 … and up to 100 and beyond ……but that’s a long way down the road, but a Prabhupada disciple nevertheless. So I am initiating this rightful and parampara novelty and everyone may follow. I have already explained my reasoning and purpose in a previous article. Democracy rules. No more beating around the bush from now on!!! TOGETHER LET US CONQUER THE WORLD FOR SRILA PRABHUPADA AND SRI KRISHNA. THE WORLD IS TRULY AT OUR GRASP AND SRILA PRABHUPADA WANTS IT. He has expressed it on innumerable occasions, as follows. Please find just 3 Prabhupada letter quotes, wherein He expresses the global potential of the Krishna consciousness movement and its members:
“It is a fact that Krishna desires to have His own men in the top posts. That is why after so much fighting in the Battle of Kuruksetra, only the five Pandavas remained, because they are devotees of Krishna and He likes it when His own men are serving in the top positions of leadership. So gradually we shall also try to influence the leaders of this country and other countries to base their political activities upon a God-conscious platform. It is the duty of the brahminical class to advise the leaders, not that they shall themselves serve as leaders. So more and more I am urging my students to recognize the grave responsibility which is theirs for saving this fallen human society from gliding down into hell. Actually, it is the fault of the rascal leaders that the conditions in the world today are so topsy-turvy. In your country many fools elect the biggest fool to be their leader, it is like one blind man leading so many other blind men. But for the most part, the ordinary citizens of the society are innocent enough, they simply require good leaders and everything can be rectified. So it is our great responsibility to become very serious in the matter of executing Krishna Consciousness, and if we are sincere and go on expanding this movement all over the world, gradually we shall induce the leaders to accept our philosophy more and more. You are the pioneer in this matter amongst the devotees in your country, so whatever experience you have gained you may pass on to the others who may also attempt to engage in political activities. I am very thankful to you for your bold attempts, may Krishna give you His all blessings.” Letter to Amarendra, June 12 1972
“Yes, the program of increasing book distribution is very much appreciated by me, and especially if you can preach very widely to the university students nearby to your place, that is the best program. Try to get a course of instruction in the college and preach daily in a scholastic way. If we can attract this student class of men by our preaching work, that will enhance everything and we are very much in need of intelligent preachers for expanding this movement all over the world. I want that you all my advanced disciples become very bold preachers and take up this task of saving the fallen humanity from its worst condition of sinfulness. If you simply convert the leaders of your country to our philosophy, then the whole world will follow and be saved from ruin. Otherwise, they are all doomed to become animals like hogs and dogs. So you preach like that, very strongly, to especially the hippie class of men and the student class of men and convince them to give up their sinful activities and find out their real perfection of life in this Krishna Consciousness movement.”
Ref. VedaBase => Letter to: Sukadeva — Los Angeles 16 August, 1972
I am also glad to note the work going on in East Germany. Try to impress upon them to make communism God-centered. God is the father of everyone, and we are all His sons. Everything is His property, and everyone has the right to enjoy it. Without being God-centered, Communism will fail. So we have got good potency to be the leaders of the world if we carefully push on this movement.

BGAII 18.01 by Srila Pabhupada, so version 3 of BGAII 18.01:
“Arjuna said: O mighty-armed One, I wish to understand the purpose of renunciation and of the renounced order of life, O Killer of the Kesi demon, Master of the senses.”
Jayadvaita:
“Arjuna said: O mighty-armed one, I wish to understand the purpose of renunciation [tyaga] and of the renounced order of life [sannyasa], O killer of the Kesi demon, master of the senses.”
Hayagriva:
“Arjuna said, O mighty-armed one, I wish to understand the purpose of renunciation [tyaga] and of the renounced order of life [sannyasa], O killer of the Kesi demon, Hrshikesha.
There is not much difference between both editors’ rendition. Both treat the readers with great condescendence by not crediting them with the intelligence to understand by themselves that the Sanskrit word “tyaga” means renunciation and that the Sanskrit word “sannyasa” also means renunciation or the fourth stage of life or sannyasi.
The wise Srila Prabhupada totally refrains from such offensive behaviour towards His readers and followers. But fools rush where angels not dare to tread.
An insight into the minds of both editors: “But hey, we have just recently become the new Sanskrit experts in a process which usually takes ten years. So just see how smart we are and you are nothing but Sanskrit ignoramuses, so you better learn from us, if you want to understand anything at all about spiritual life. And after all, we have to say something from time to time, it does not really matter what, even the most foolish and offensive nonsense is all right, it’s just that people have to be reminded that we are standing by here and don’t perceive us as completely useless.”
So offensiveness is the leitmotif here. Offensive to the readers as I have just explained and offensive to Guru, Srila Prabhupada, for trying to correct Him and step over His head.
But thats not all. There is MUCH, MUCH BIGGER TO COME.
Srila Prabhupada, being the World Acharya knows perfectly well how to properly honour the Supreme Personality of Godhead in a literary way and carefully puts a capital to the three words related to Him or addressing Him, such as One, Killer and and Master. This is just beyond the understanding and grasp of the two editors, who dont care at all about these three capitals.
Srila Prabhupada strictly observes proper etiquette, whereas both editors don’t, as mad as elephants in a glass house. It ought to be careful noted that this is not a casual affairs or a mates’ gathering. This is even much more important than a meeting at the White House or at the Kremlin for that matter or the Chinese equivalent. Both editors bluntly and boorishly disrespect The Supreme Personality of Godhead. There will. be reactions for such neglect.
Here is what Srila Prabhupada says on this subject matter in BGAII 6.47, purport, version 3:
“The word Bhajate is significant here. Bhajate has its root in the verb Bhaj, which is used when there is need for service. The English word worship cannot be used in the same sense as bhaja. Worship means to adore, or to sow respect and honor to the worthy one. But service with love and faith is especially meant for the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One can avoid worshiping a respectable man or a demigod, and be called discourteous—but one cannot avoid serving the Supreme Lord without being thoroughly condemned. Every living entity is part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and as such every living entity is meant to serve the Supreme Lord by its own constitution. Failing to do this, he falls down.”
These two individuals ARE THOROUGHLY CONDEMNED for failing to show proper respect to The Supreme Personality of Godhead on this occasion of their literary productions and many other occasions as well throughout the Bhagavad Gita As It Is, and those who choose to adhere to their versions of Bhagavad Gita and become their followers, will experience the same sordid fate.

I took this picture today, October 19 2024, through my windscreen. This is the back of a Brisbane City Public Transport Bus and we can see the uncovered lower (front) abdomen of a female. The shorts are dropped to just above the yoni level, showing her underwear. If the law allowed more they would show more for sure. But it is very suggestive as it is.
And after VENROY comes ” a breath of fresh air” at “limited speed”, reference number Q100922. And why not after all ??? And if you don’t give way, as stipulated by the law, you will be penalised too, ouch! As opposed other states, certain fines can be super-heavy in the state of Queensland :):):)
Why dogs? Because when dogs meet they immediately concentrate, smell or lick the genitals and anus without any inhibitions whatsoever. This is dog’s ceremonial. This is dog’s nectar. This can easily be seen in the parks and dog owners will facilitate such behaviour. Nothing wrong there, as we are dealing with dogs and bitches. Even when dogs meet humans, they may exhibit the same behaviour. So it is the public concentration on the genitals, female genitals in this particular case, that makes it doggish or dog like. And this certainly applies to this picture. This is a Brisbane city public transport bus and everyone can see the picture, including innocent children. The public concentration on female genitals is obvious and free from inhibition. Therefore doggish! And why don’t ladies protest? And why doesn’t anyone protest? Have people become so dulled up by the media? As opposed to dogs, humans are supposed to have a certain discretion and shyness that dogs dont have and dont need to have. That’s why God or Krishna created the dog species, just for that purpose. You do these things in private no one bats an eyelid. But you do it in public, it becomes an affront to public morality and is punishable by law.
This may be the sign of a decadent western civilisation lost to sense gratification, of which sex is the main course. Tulsi Gabbard, the former candidate for US presidency says: “The bulletin of atomic scientists doomsday clock is set to 90 minutes before midnight, one spark away from our demise.” In the beginning sex may feel nice. But it represents a trap by material nature. Without the sexual pleasure and excitement, who would bother to reproduce?
Please find Srila Prabhupada’s verse and purport to Srimad Bhagavatam 5.14.22:
VERSE
The conditioned soul is sometimes attracted to the little happiness derived from sense gratification. Thus he has illicit sex or steals another’s property. At such a time he may be arrested by the government or chastised by the woman’s husband or protector. Thus simply for a little material satisfaction, he falls into a hellish condition and is put into jail for rape, kidnapping, theft and so forth.
PURPORT
“Material life is such that due to indulgence in illicit sex, gambling, intoxication and meat-eating, the conditioned soul is always in a dangerous condition. Meat-eating and intoxication excite the senses more and more, and the conditioned soul falls victim to women. In order to keep women, money is required, and to acquire money, one begs, borrows or steals. Indeed, he commits abominable acts that cause him to suffer both in this life and in the next. Consequently illicit sex must be stopped by those who are spiritually inclined or who are on the path of spiritual realization. Many devotees fall down due to illicit sex. They may steal money and even fall down from the highly honored renounced order. Then for a livelihood they accept menial services and become beggars. It is therefore said in the shastras, yan maithunadi-grhamedhi-sukham hi tuccham: [SB 7.9.45] materialism is based on sex, whether licit or illicit. Sex is full of dangers even for those who are addicted to household life. Whether one has a license for sex or not, there is great trouble. Bahu-duhkha-bhak: after one indulges in sex, many volumes of miseries ensue. One suffers more and more in material life. A miserly person cannot properly utilize the wealth he has, and similarly a materialistic person misuses the human form. Instead of using it for spiritual emancipation, he uses the body for sense gratification. Therefore he is called a miser.”
Bhagavad Gita As It Is 18.38, also warns that happiness in the mode of passion results in misery.
“BGAII 18.38, version 3. “Happiness derived from the combinations of the sense objects with the senses appears to be like nectar in the beginning, but at the end is just like poison. Such happiness is said to be in the mode of passion.”
Purport to the same verse BGAII 18.38, version three:
“Sense gratification with the opposite sex, just like a young man and a young woman meet together so the combination of the sense objects respectively and the senses just to touch a young woman and to see a young woman and to have sexual intercourse with a young woman, in the beginning it is very pleasing to the respective senses but at the end or after sometime it becomes just like poison and they are separated and there is divorce, there is lamentation, there is sorrow, such kind of happiness is always considered in the modes of passion. Such kind of keeping after happiness of combination of the senses and sense objects is always a cause of distress, they should be avoided by all means.”

First of all, it’s not “great man”. Prabhupada writes in singular number “by therespectable leader of human society.” So “respectable leader of human society” it is, and NOT “great man”, (you speculator and guru-aparadhi Hayagriva,) as in BGAII 3.21, version 3 :
“Whatever and whichever action a respectable leader of human society performs, common men follow. And whatever standards he sets as exemplary acts, all the world pursues.”
Both editors are equally responsible here for this malinterpretation and misleading:
Hayagriva is responsible for introducing it in the first place and Jayadvaita, in his repeated stupor, for rubber stamping it. What a dull animal he is, this Jayadvaita! Wikipedia flatteringly calls him “one of ISKCON’s most independent-minded and respected thinkers.” I have no qualms however, in calling him a dull, stupid, and UNFAITHFUL animal. Please note that I refrain from using the word “dog”, as that is the ultimate humiliation, that Jayadvaita does not deserve at this point of discovery of his personality. To his great loss, he is repeating the same non-sense perhaps hundreds of times throughout Srila Prabhupada’s Bhagavad Gita As It Is.
Now the purport:
Flagrant sexism here. They don’t even realise how sexist they are, these people. It’s their second nature. Expert Srila Prabhupada ,however, carefully writes “anyone who desires to improve”, and we can see clearly that someone scribbled in superimposition “himself” on the OT paper.
But Hayagriva entirely misses the sentence. Perhaps he was on drugs or having sex with his homosexual partner. Who kows?
Jayadvaita gives ” anyone whom wants to improve “HIMSELF”. That’s flagrant sexism by all standards. He doesn’t even realise how sexist he is. That means Jayadvaita is a loooooooong way from Krishna consciousness. Jayadvaita definitely needs to vastly improve himself. And he is banned from editing. Does Jayadvaita think that women are not into improving themselves? This is a maha-holy-illusion for his holiness and he better watch out because women may give him a very stiff competition in self-improvement. The women I meet every day on Book Distribution are very much switched on. May be he should go on Book Distribution himself and face the realities of the Book Distribution Battlefield or BDB. The BDB mode can best be described as quick and decisive.
For comparative studies’ sake please find the three renditions of the purport:
ONE. Srila Prabhupada Bhagavad Gita As It Is, version three:
Purport 3.21. People in general always require a leader who can teach the public by practical behaviour. You cannot teach the public to stop smoking if you smoke yourself. Lord Caitanya said that a teacher should behave practically before he begins teaching. One who treaches in that way is called acarya or the ideal teacher. Therefore a teacher must follow the principles of shastra to reach the common man. The teacher cannot manufacture rules against the principles of the revealed scriptures. The revealed scriptures like Manusamhita and similar other scriptures, are considered the standard books to be followed by human society. As such the leader’s teaching should be based on the principles of such standard shastra. Anyone who desires to improve must follow the standard rules as they are practiced by the great teachers. The Bhagavatam also affirms that one should follow the footsteps of great devotees and that is the way of progress on the path of spiritual realization. The king or the executive head of the state, the father, the school teachers—all are considered to be natural leaders of the innocent people in general. Therefore, all such natural leaders have a great responsibility to their dependents, and as such they require to be conversant with the standard boks of moral and spiritual codes.
TWO from Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita:
People in general always require a leader who can teach the public by practical behavior. A leader cannot teach the public to stop smoking if he himself smokes. Lord Caitanya said that a teacher should behave properly before he begins teaching. One who teaches in that way is called acarya, or the ideal teacher. Therefore, a teacher must follow the principles of sastra (scripture) to teach the common man. The teacher cannot manufacture rules against the principles of revealed scriptures. The revealed scriptures, like Manu-samhita and similar others, are considered the standard books to be followed by human society. Thus the leader’s teaching should be based on the principles of such standard sastras. One who desires to improve himself must follow the standard rules as they are practiced by the great teachers. The Srimad-Bhagavatam also affirms that one should follow in the footsteps of great devotees, and that is the way of progress on the path of spiritual realization. The king or the executive head of a state, the father and the schoolteacher are all considered to be natural leaders of the innocent people in general. All such natural leaders have a great responsibility to their dependents; therefore they must be conversant with standard books of moral and spiritual codes.
THREE from Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva:
People in general always require a leader who can teach the public by practical behavior. A leader cannot teach the public to stop smoking if he himself smokes. Lord Caitanya said that a teacher should behave properly even before he begins teaching. One who teaches in that way is called acarya, or the ideal teacher. Therefore, a teacher must follow the principles of sastra (scripture) to reach the common man. The teacher cannot manufacture rules against the principles of revealed scriptures. The revealed scriptures, like Manu-samhita and similar others, are considered the standard books to be followed by human society. Thus the leader’s teaching should be based on the principles of the standard rules as they are practiced by the great teachers. The Srimad-Bhagavatam also affirms that one should follow in the footsteps of great devotees, and that is the way of progress on the path of spiritual realization. The king or the executive head of a state, the father and the school teacher are all considered to be natural leaders of the innocent people in general. All such natural leaders have a great responsibility to their dependants; therefore they must be conversant with standard books of moral and spiritual codes.
First sentence coincides in all three editions.
Second sentence, the deviations begin:
Prabhupada says: “You cannot teach the public to stop smoking if you smoke yourself.” A crystal clear statement by Srila Prabhupada. Any editor in his right mind will not dare to touch it. But both editors Hayagriva and Jayadvaita foolishly and brazenly insult Prabhupada and replace it with their own concoction and meaning because of course, their position is superior to Srila Prabhupada’s and because of course they both know better than Srila Prabhupada. So they kick Srila Prabhupada in the face whereas they are the ones who ought to be kicked in the face with boots:”A leader cannot teach the public to stop smoking if he himself smokes.”The unspoken message is: “Prabhupada, we are really sorry to have to tell you that, but you really dont know what you are talking about and let the Hayagriva and Jayadvaita parampara talk here please, ok? Especially the fact that we have a lot of experience in smoking all kinds speaks in our favour!!! Whereas You Srila Prabhupada you haven’t even smoked one single cigarette in your entire life. So what do YOU know about smoking? Please be quiet now and let us do the speaking as we are most qualified in smoking matters, ok? Besides that how can you address us so directly since we are still involved in smoking. So its go to be the leaders who got to show the example to stop smoking first and then we’ll follow the leaders We ll do that when the leaders do it. ” That is a typical adulterated devotee situation, where the bhakta considers his own interest supreme and every else subordinate to it.
Third and fourth sentence.
Srila Prabhupada says:”Lord Caitanya said that a teacher should behave practically before he begins teaching. One who teaches in that way is called acarya or the ideal teacher.” Here again in their restlessness the editors feel a need to replace Prabhupada’s “practically” with their own “properly”. But Srila Prabhupada “practically” is better by miles because it implies the idea of putting one’s philosophy into practice. But the editors think” He, we are here and we got to do something. So let’s do anything.” That is monkey philosophy of active foolishness. We are lucky again as the editors agree with Srila Prabhupada on sentence four.
Sentence five.
Here something funny happens. Hayagriva fully agrees with Srila Prabhupada. But the so called super-intelligent and super-nasty Jayadvaita must contradict both. He just cannot resist it. This is why I say that Hayagriva is at least an honest person, whereas Jayadvaita is just a NASTY CHEATER. Jayadvaita, you NASTY CHEATER it’s not “to teach the common man” as you would have it. It’s “to reach the common man” as Srila Prabhupada writes it Himself and you know it. Jayadvaita is a NASTY, UNPRINCIPLED, VAISHYA CLASS FELLOW CHEATER whose main aim is to confuse everything and everyone. He ought to be kicked out. At the very least he ought to be silenced. That includes indeed to repudiate his rendition of BGAII immediately.
Sentence six, no problem.
Sentence seven. Both monkey-like editors feel the irresistible need to drop the word “scripture.”The sentence is weakened by their whimsical decisions.
The point is that we are being brainwashed big time by Hayagriva and Jayadvaita into thinking that we are reading Srila Prabhupada. But actually we are not. We are reading the private ravings and rantings of these two dubious individuals. Hayagriva was a drug addict and a homosexual. Are these your ideals of spiritual life? You will simply become a drug addict and a homosexual yourself as well. As far as homosexuality is concerned and even in this promiscuous society , we simply say: “Please, no illicit sex.” That’s all. Licit sex is godly as per Sri Krishna’s statement in Bhagavad Gita 7.11 and illicit sex is demoniac. I shall not quote the verse itself as 7.11, 7.12 and part 7.13 along with purports are missing in the Original Transcript (OT) Please look it up yourselves in whatever version you prefer.
And Jayadvaita has no principles whatsoever. He only works for his vanity. And his thinking is purely reactive: meaning to say if Hayagriva writes black or right, Jayadvaita out of his smart ass mentality will sometimes write white or left. This is just about the apogee of his thinking. There is nothing beyond that in Jayadvaita’s mind. His first principle is to bluff and mislead the innocent, the GBC and the whole world as well. What a cheater this Jayadvaita is! And he very impudently pretends to knows better than Srila Prabhupada, his Guru. What a Maha-Aparadhi! What a Maha-offender at the lotus feet of his Guru, Srila Prabhupada, this Jayadvaita is! And so far he is successful in his foolish and criminal enterprise. Who is going to stop him and when is he going to be stopped?
He is a third class mercantile man or Vaisya, representative of his community, trying to be a first class man or Brahmin. Nothing wrong with that. It’s an open competition and every willing player gets his chance. It’s a bit like in a svayamvara ceremony. He is trying to be a peacock but in reality he is a crow only and always will remain a crow or even less. Again from this particular instance, we may say that the Governing Body of ISKCON, who adopted Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita in 19?? or 20?? did not display much due diligence either.
Then there is BGAII 3.21. (Version 3)
“Whatever action a respectable leader of human society performs, common men follow. And whatever standards he sets as exemplary acts, all the world pursues.”
Srila Prabhupada very elegantly and cooly speak about “the respectable leader of human society” But crazy and drug addicted Hayagriva felt a need to make the higher bid of “great man”. Perhaps he suffered from megalomania as well.
Here is the definition of megalomania: “the delusional belief that one is important, powerful, or famous, as a form or symptom of mental disorder.” And he had a homosexual relationship with another customer of New York, USA, Bellevue Psychiatric hospital, the late Kirtanananda. All these details are accurate and are given in Srila Prabhupada’s Letters. Please read Srila Prabhupada’s letters.
Even though unpalatable, these details are important to be aware of to make an accurate assessment of the situation.
So when are we going to wake up to this reality and firmly reject both Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva and Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita and go back to the drawing board of Srila Prabhupada’s original transcript (OT)? To my knowledge that is the only way out of this somewhat distressing situation. I have already published chapter 2 of Bhagavad Gita As It Is, version 3. Just have a look and compare. Do some comparative religious studies. I often advise Christians to buy Bhagavad Gita As It Is for the purpose of comparative religion. And some take it seriously and buy and study comparatively. Soon I will be publishing chapter 3 of Bhagavad Gita As It Is.
The other criminal offence is that the leaders of ISKCON and the BBT uphold this cruel illusion by not speaking up and by not stopping this absolute nonsense. That is a very serious matter and they will suffer for that. This is plain cheating. They cheat themselves, they cheat the ISKCON world and they cheat the whole world because ultimately Bhagavad Gita As It Is is of world influence and will become so more and more by the supreme will of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That means ISKCON and BBT leaders, contrary to what they are trying to project are NOT UTTAMA ADHIKARIS or first class devotees. They are bluffing. On the contrary they are KANISTHA ADHIKARIS kanistha or neophytes devotees or at the best they are MADHYAMA ADHIRAKIS or middle class devotees. That is alright, as that is the preacher’s level of expertise. However their silence and lack of proactive approach about this whole matter is utterly condemnable and irresponsible.
Apologies to our readers . This particular presentation is due to unwanted computer interference and I am not quite sure how to counter it. The computer edit-corrector itself sometimes makes totally absurd, for not using the word idiotic, suggestions. Another example of unwanted services imposed by force by WordPress or who ever. Can you please mind your own business? We dont want and need unnecessary, paternalistic and forceful interferences. We are competent to manage our affairs ourselves. Thank you!
Actually we see all around us irresponsible actions. Yesterday at the bank there were no personal tellers, there was only one single ATM machine for all customers and the machine did not work properly so that after much time wastage, I could not bank the whole amount. Besides that the banks are saving their resources to the maximum and make you sweat just to get to a branch, of which they have closed down most of them. They are trying to save their own resources and trying to spend their customer’s resources instead. A very sneaky policy. They think we are fools and they think they are smartest. But I trust customers will fight back in due course. Please give people the credit of some intelligence. That is totally irresponsible on the part of the bank which I may not name for now. But an appropriate letter to their general management would be appropriate. THIS IS TIME and OTHER RECOURCES THEFT. THEY ARE TIME THIEVES. WATCH OUT FOR TIME AND OTHER RESOURCES THIEVES.
This type of behaviour on the part on any bank is both extremely disrespectful and distressful for its customers and we wonder where it comes from. We wonder who makes these inappropriate and reckless decisions in the restricted circle of their corporate board rooms. To be more pinpointed, we wonder whether these decisions are gender related, if you get what I mean.
And some people are dangerously driving their cars like madmen. They speed where it is very dangerous to speed. Actually speeding is always dangerous everywhere and should be avoided at all costs. Speeding causes death for sure. Some drivers refuse to give priority where they ought to. Monday October 14th 2024, a vehicle all of a sudden appeared before me from a left side, secondary, tributary road. I had to quickly and hard-maximum brake to avoid a collision.
The Team Global Express parcel tracking system is irresponsive as well and has been so for three days now. Big words: Team Global Express but lame entity with a lame tracking service!
The point is that people are very much disturbed in their minds due to a lack of guiding ideology and resulting mental structure and due to their aural input from the distressing world news.
Krishna consciousness has the potential to fill this omnipresent void. But if the Krishna consciousness movement itself and its leadership is failing, falling apart and travelling on the wrong Bhagavad Gita track then were is the hope??? These are signs of a decaying social structure. The questions are:” How far will it go?” and “Where will it take us?” “Will the seemingly LNP state election win in Queensland solve the problem?” So we may be heading for a rough ride. Better be prepared for it. As the French saying goes: “Un homme averti en vaut deux.” or in English” A person who knows what lies ahead is worth two people.” That’s double the resources to counter adverse circumstances.
So the leaders of ISKCON have a very heavy responsibility but as far as Bhagavad Gita As I Is is concerned they are failing. Fortunately we have some Christians who are fixed in their views and believes. I can see that much. And it is a great credit to hem. Their faith in Lord Jesus Christ is very strong and we can only congratulate them for it. But as I always say Krishna consciousness is the post graduate study of religion. Consequently the Christians and all other religionist may advance to Krishna consciousness anytime they will decide to do so.
But the stubborn adhesion to Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita, their silence on the matter and lack of appropriate action, remains criminal on the part of the ISKCON and BBT leaderships. Srila Prabhupada clearly states in the Nectar of Instruction also called Upadeshamrita verse 1, purport that “Silence may appear helpful for some time, but ultimately it proves a failure. So the ISKCON and BBT leaderships may not be a failure, break their silence and finally discard to a far distance Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by the unprincipled Jayadvaita NOW!!!
“Among cheating processes I am gambling; of the splendid I am the splendour, of the industrialist I am adventure, I am victory and I am the strength of the strong.” BGAII 10.36, version 3.
“I call you when I need you, my heart’s on fire
You come to me, come to me wild and wired
mmmm you come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a life time of pomises and a world of dreams
Speak a language of love like you know what it means
mmm it can’t be wrong, baby
Take my heart and make it strong baby
YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST
BETTER THAN ALL THE REST
BETTER THAN ANYONE, ANYONE I’VE EVER MET
I AM STUCK ON YOUR HEART
I HANG ON EVERY -Bhagavad Gita- WORD YOU SAY
Tear us apart, no, no baby, I would rather be dead
In your heart I see the star of every night and every day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I am here in your arms
I could be in no better place
YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST
BETTER THAN ALL THE REST
BETTER THAN ANYONE, ANYONE I’VE EVER MET
I AM STUCK ON YOUR HEART
I HANG ON EVERY -Bhagavad Gita- WORD YOU SAY
Tear us apart, no, no baby, I would rather be dead.
EACH TIME YOU LEAVE ME I START LOOSING CONTROL
YOU’RE WALKING AWAY WITH MY HEARD AND MY SOUL
I CAN FEEL YOU EVEN WHEN I AM ALONE
O baby don’t let go
YOU ARE THE BEST, BETTER THAN ALL THE REST
BETTER THAN ANYONE, ANYONE I’VE EVER MET
I AM STUCK ON YOUR HEART
I HANG ON EVERY -Bhagavad Gita- WORD YOU SAY
Don’t tear us apart, no, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
OOH YOU ARE THE BEST!”
Queen Tina is praising the BEST MALE.
And Who is the best MALE?
Sri Krishna is, who else ?
5000 years ago, He has abundantly proved it by expanding Himself into 16108 forms and marrying 16108 beautiful queens like Tina. They each had ten children or 161080 children. And He treated them perfectly, like a perfect gentleman, except for when he was playing affectionate and teasing games, as happened with Queen Rukmini, the Goddess of Fortune, when Krishna made her faint by his joking divorce proposal and as happens in all dynamic couples-not specifically in relationship to divorce proposals. But Rukmini, being Queen of good fortune quickly turned the table on Krishna. Please refer to the Krishna Book published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust., Chapter 60, Talks between Krishna and Rukimini. All details are described there. International division: https://bbt.org/books or Australasian division http://www.bbt.org.au in Sydney.
And in Bhagavad Gita 10.36 Krishna actually reciprocates with Tina when He says:
“I am the splendor of the splendid”
Tina is “the splendid” without any doubt. and her talent, beauty and outstanding personality is Krishna.
Here is the full verse Bhagavad Gita As It Is, version 3, chapter 10, verse 36:
“Among cheating processes I am gambling; of the splendid I am the splendor, of the industrialist I am adventure, I am victory and I am the strength of the strong.”
All glories to the now departed Tina Turner!
What a topmost show lady!
According to Wikipedia she also has a pious back ground.
Tina, you are definitely THE BEST.
We trust that by Lord Krishna’s grace, you achieved a wonderful destination, all to your liking. Thank you Tina for sharing your God-given talent.
Due to absorption in book distribution, I did not plan ahead for my morning milk. As long as the weather is still a little fresh in the morning, it’s nice to accept little warm or hot milk prasadam.
So I had no choice but to drive the small distance to the market place where Aldi and Woolworth compete. It was 7.30 AM and sleepy Aldi was still closed till 8.30 AM, whereas hard working Woolworth opens at 7 AM. I just took $4.50 for 3 litres of milk.
When I arrived at milk fridges from the corner of my eye(s), I noticed a yellow sticker on one first bottle of milk in the many rows of bottles. It was discounted to $2.00, which is quite rare these days. When I removed that first bottle the second bottle behind was also discounted but nothing more after that. So for my initial money of $4.50 I got 6 litters off milk instead of 3 litres only, thats twice the expected amount and a residual money of $0.50. I call that a miracle because Krishna’s hand was definitely involved here. And I call this effective money management as well. Doubling one’s value is standard business practice for financial success. Thank you Woolworth for this opportunity!
But that was not all. When at the check out I requested Trish to please kindly chant the Hare Krishn mantra with me, she gladly complied. And we went
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
I led and she followed. O course, I was wearing my Hare Krishna baseball cap for more preaching bang. And thank you Trish for taking up the Hare Krishna Mantra challenge.
Someone may say: And what are you going to do with 6 litres of milk?
Well Sir or Madam, dont you know that milk is such a wonderful and practical foodstuff that it can be consumed in the “fresh” state as well in the curdled state. In other words, milk never perishes. Besides that I contains all the ingredients that are needed for a healthy life. Babies are the living proof for that.
But to be fair to Aldi, they also have a miracle. Starting from Saturday 19th of October, Aldi is selling a Ferrex lawn mower, including battery and charger for just $249.00, with an astounding 5 years warranty. That’s a significant economic miracle! How does Aldi do it? There is certainly is a lot of good will behind this action, good will to benefit the people. I have been waiting for this “miracle”for quite some time. Thank you Aldi! One Aldi employee confided that he previously had a Ferex lawn mower for the five year warranty period and there were no problems whatsoever. At the end of the five years period, he simply upgraded.

“Indirectly, it is the practice of Krishna consciousness, because when advanced in such performances of yajnas, one is sure to become Krishna conscious.”
Hayagriva:
“Indirectly, it is the practice of Krishna consciousness, because when ONE MASTERS THE performance of yajnas, one is sure to become Krishna conscious.”
Jayadvaita:
“Indirectly, it is the practice of Krishna consciousness, because when ONE MASTERS THE performance of yajnas, one is sure to become Krishna conscious.”
Hayagriva has the supreme audacity to unecessarily correct Srila Prabhupada, the World Acharya, by increasing the degree of force of Srila Prabhupada’s statement. From “being advanced”, it becomes “when one masters.” The two are not equal. One who is advanced only in a subject matter has not yet mastered the subject matter. Besides that, in Srila Prabhupada’s version it is typically easier to become Krishna conscious, whereas in the current and official version both Hayagriva and Jayadvaita want to make people sweat to become Krishna conscious. And sweat for whom? Sweat for themselves of course, sweat for their own benefit, these lazy rascals.
And Jayadvaita, in his great wisdom, does not actively correct the deviation, as his duty of second editor calls for, but instead rubber stamps the Prabhupada offence, thus making himself and everyone else in ISKCON and the BBT an accomplice of the plot to change or modify Srila Prabhupada’s absolute message, thus cheating the whole world out of Prabhupada’s real words. To modify unnecessarily Srila Prabhupada’s message and without authority is the greatest crime of manipulation against humanity. Such is the vitality, importance and relevance of the benevolent Prabhupada Vani. The benevolent Prabhupada Vani is so essential to the positive and healthy future of the planet!
In plain words, this is here the following unspoken message:
“Really Srila Prabhupada, you are an old family fool and idiot. Please get out of our way. We, your up and coming western disciples, we know better and we shall fix it all. You please just shut up. You don’t even know your English properly. What to speak of expressing yourself properly. Just trust us, your so-called Western disciples.”
That is a very offensive attitude and a very offensive action by all standards to which I CANNOT AGREE. This is exactly where our paths part. This is were the red line lies. You ISKCON and BBT people ought to be reformed by ALL POSSIBLE MEANS to save you from the hell were GURU APARADHIS live, especially the hell where Srila Prabhupada aparadhis live.
The first step and probably the most important step of reform will be for the ISKCON authorities to repudiate officially, immediately and without further delay Freewheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is Not (or FBGAIIN) by Jayadvaita and go back to the drawing board of Srila Prabhupada Original Transcript (OT), as I have also been trying to do myself. Once this is done everything may fall into place.
The point being that anyone who supports in anyway, anyone of these two polluted and corrupted versions of Bhagavad Gita As It Is becomes automatically enveloped in this offensive mentality and hallo generated by both editors, Hayagriva and Jayadvaita. Lets get out off this quick before it is too late! Let’s get out before the building crumbles.
Bhagavad Gita As It Is, version 3, 2.49 exhorts:
“2.49. O Dhananjaya, keep all abominable activities at a far distant place by dint of devotional service, and in such consciousness, try to surrender unto Him. Those who want to enjoy the fruits of work are misers.”
