The posting of IMPERSONALSIT, IMPOSTER and TRAITOR JAYADVAITA on Wikipedia is extremely revealing. IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER and TRAITOR JAYADVAITA.—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPOSTER, IMPERSONALIST AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA—–IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA. Please remember and chant this mantra: The IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND TRAITOR JAYADVAITA (editor of version 2 of Bhagavad Gita As It Is, falsely accepted as official version by ISKCON and originally produced by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the 700 verses themselves being spoken by Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Himself, on the Battlefield of Kurukshetra, about 150 air kilometres north of New Delhi.)

1. [He has been described as “one of ISKCON’s most independent-minded and respected thinkers.”] says Wikipedia. Unfortunately, “Most independent thinking ” represents his downfall. As far as ISKCON is concerned, all essential thinking and all structural thinking has been done by its Founder-Acarya, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. WE NEED TO STRICTLY FOLLOW IN HIS FOOSTEPS. As far as respect is concerned, we gave him previously a little respect for certain improvements and expert renditions for example in Bhagavad Gita As It Is such as BGAII 3.34:
2. “There are principles to regulate attachment and aversion pertaining to the senses and their objects. One should not come under the control of such attachment and aversion, because they are stumbling blocks on the path of self-realization.”
3. BGAII Version 1 by Hayagriva being:
4. “Attraction and repulsion for sense objects are felt by the embodied beings, but one should not fall under the control of senses and sense objects because they are stumbling blocks on the path of self realisation.” (This first rendition even misses the definite articles THE for “senses” and for “sense objects”)
5. So version 2 by Jayadvaita represents a significant improvement over version 1 by Hayagriva. It is also elegantly formulated and inspired by Srila Prabhupada. So a plus for Jayadvaita. As version 3 we are however proposing as follows:
6. “There are principles to regulate attachment and aversion pertaining to the senses and their interaction with the sense objects. One should not fall under the control of the senses and their objects because that will prove to be a stumbling block on the path of self – realisation.” 
7. But for his betrayal of Srila Prabhupada AND attempted usurpation of Srila Prabhupada’s position by criminally changing certain passages of Bhagavad Gita As It Is to suit his own view and interests he deserves condemnation only. I believe in war time superior officers have a right and duty to summarily execute and shoot traitors with their hipside pistol on the spot without further trial. Please correct me if I am wrong. But that is old style war anyway. May be Ukraine -style war. At least that’s what we see in the movies also. War time is a great mess and chaos of death anyway. And I am not a war strategist either. But nowadays most of us would get killed instantly by the action of the atom bomb(s).
8. Please note that this constant numbering 2,3,4,5,6, 7 etc ….at the left of the page is an artificial imposition by WordPress. It is unwanted and not generated by the author of this article.  
10. 2) Wikipedia gives his “other name” as “Jay Israel”. His full name reveals indeed the community which lies closest to his heart. We may therefore call him narrow-minded and a non-Israel-exclusivist and perhaps even an Israel-fanatic.

But I am very sorry to announce to him and very happy to declare to everyone else in the world that ISKCON is meant for ALL COMMUNITIES OF THE WORLD, including Israel but not exclusively for Israel. Israel is NOT the centre of the world, neither is Jayadvaita. ISKCON is meant to become the centre of the world and Srila Prabhupada and Krishna Himself are to be its leaders.

I would also request him herewith to desist from trying to impose on everyone else the values of his own ethnicity by trying to usurp and subvert Srila Prabhupada’ s own position. I believe that Srila Prabhupada says that his own ethnicity is on the level of Vaisya’s, in other words the third mercantile division in society from top to bottom. He may have a fair go at trying to impose his own ethics values on everyone else and should be prepared for reactions accordingly. But to attempt to usurp and subvert Srila Prabhupada’s own position is a crime of lese-majesty. The Shah of Iran used to whip such offenders. Punitive action is certainly required.

Besides that, his is the platform of false ego par excellence. To misidentify with one’s ethnicity is the platform of false ego par excellence This is ahankara by excellence. That also shows how less advanced Jayadvaita is because he strongly identifies with his body and bodily origins. THAT MEANS IMPERSONALIST, IMPOSTER AND USURPER JAYADVAITA HAS NOT EVEN UNDERSTOOD THE VERY BASIC PRINCIPLE and TENETS OF THE KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS PHILOSOPHY, that we are not these bodies, and that we are spirit souls instead, parts and parcels of the Supreme Spirit or Supreme Brahman. Consequently he does not practice the very basic principles of Krishna consciousness and he may consequently GO AWAY and start his own movement, where he will be the worshiped leader. That is one of his options. The International Society for Jai Israel, will be a suitable and above all HONEST designation for his party. No more sly and cunning underhandedness! Amen, Om Tat Sat and Inch’ Allah.

Krishna consciousness is the post graduate study of and for all religions of the world, and that is why all religions CULMINATE IN GOD OR KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS. Where is the difficulty? There is no difficulty. Let us unite the whole world under the banner of KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS and bring about real peace in the heart of all men, women and children. And let us not forget the animals either and be aware that Krishna gives license to eat plants only in BGAII 9.26.

1) Whereas WAVES OF KIRTAN #21 // BB Govinda Swami, Akincana Krishna, Ojasvi & Saci Suta – Summer Fest 2015 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VLi4s3SQ0c represents absolute top class inspiration and motivational material, and all glories to BB Govinda Swami!

2) Whereas this particular kirtan is strictly within the parameters of the Madhva-Gaudiya-Vaishnava Sampradaya, again all glories to the energetic and inspirational Krishna consciousness of BB Govinda Swami!!!

We propose herewith that this particular kirtan be adopted whence forward as the anthem of ISKCON.

Our apologies to the respected GBC members for this proposal not being calibrated to standard form, but the secretary of the GBC His Grace Ananda Tirtha SWAMI, in his great wisdom, has barred us access to the GBC by blocking email communication with this humble self. And we have pointed out this fact to to our GBC co-members, but no positive action has been taken. So really we have no other alternative, but this public display.

We have consequently no other means to make this public proposal. Again our humble apologies for this informal proposal. However rather than be concerned with formalities, it is sometimes better to just look at the actual value of the proposal and decide of its value, validity and interest.

The Australian Society for Krishna Culture (AUSKCULTURE soon to be known as ISKCULTURE- I for international) has already unanimously adopted this proposal and The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) may follow in its footsteps.

Now we need a flag because:

1.ISKCON is a transnational country.

2.ISKCON claim the status of a transnational country at United Nations, at other relevant bodies and everywhere else .

3.ISKCON is certainly a unique creation by a unique mind and individual, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada under the direct inspiration of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krishna, the creator of the worlds without a creator Himself.

Is ISKCON the first transnational country in the history of the world?

So the question will be can AUSKCULTURE become a supra Australian mini-state as is the status of the Vatican in Italy all context-proportions respected ?

Meaning to say a piece of land or several pieces of land, where all Australian federal laws now and in the future will automatically apply provided there is no flagrant clash with the laws of Krishna or God consciousness. And where additional Krishna conscious laws such as

1. No illicit sex
2. No gambling
3. No meat fish or egg eating
4. No intoxication
5. and others may apply as well.
6. As you can see, we have no intention to secede from Australia
8. Again here these numbers 6,7,8 and 9 are super imposed by force and automatically by WordPress.com. They are not at all my doing. I wish WordPress either mind their own business or do their business properly. But this is an annoying inference in other people’s business.
9. The broader question will be:

Can ISKCON become a supra-national, global state with all lands owned by ISKCON or its subsidiaries forming “the Land of ISKCON” worldwide? A kind of a world-wide Vatican. It will be a fractured state, no doubt, and this cannot be avoided by the nature of its establishment and constitution. To the superficial eye it will appear that the Land of ISKCON will be formed by multiple embassies only, as many as ISKCON centres indeed. But I believe the benefits will outweigh by far the drawbacks.

Thank you.

Here is the betrayal sentence: “A Krsna conscious person does not make any distinction between species or castes.”

Of course in a higher sense this may also be correct, but this is not what Srila Prabhupada meant to say. Clearly Srila Prabhupada uses the words “caste system” and He means to say this: “A Krishna conscious person does not make any distinction of species or any distinction within the cast system.” Or in other words a Krishna conscious person does not accept the cast system and that is a very important distinction. These rascals are probably preparing to set up the anachronistic and crazy cast system. According to this statement, the caste system is against the principles of Krishna consciousness, and a lost cause as well. We noted that on the website of the federal ACNC or Australian Charities and Not-for-profits
Commission, the caste system is mentioned immediately under the rubric Hinduism. Another capital-letters-respecting-rendition for ACNC could be Australian Commission for Not-for-profits and Charities, another valid rendition for ACNC.:):):) We regret indeed that the author of this website immediately choose to mention the most negative aspect of Hinduism without probably being properly informed himself or herself for failing the mention the extraordinary philosophical heights achieved by the philosophers of this part of the world. Srila Prabhupada always insisted that Hindu is a foreign super-imposed term. India itself was dominated by foreigners for a long time.

“So this rendition is a betrayal of Srila Prabhupada. Therefore it is incorrect, whence “STUPID, ILL-FORMULATED BETRAYAL ” and that is exactly why these editors don’t like logicians, expunged the word “logicians” from the Bhagavad Gita 2.27 purport, itself, because logicians will bare their mean, underhand and wilful subversion of Srila Prabhupada. Therefore I am repeating again and again and following in the footsteps of Srila Prabhupada in chastisement style, that these editors are rascals and those well informed individuals who agree with them and follow them are rascals too. They are not devotees. They are pseudo-devotees. They are pretenders. At the best they are immature devotees, nothing wrong with that as long as they keep on the path of progressive advancement and keep endeavouring for perfection. Who is interested in stagnation? No one! Please feel free to test them, when you meet them.

THERE CERTAINLY IS A CRIMINAL and ONGOING POISONING OF SRILA PRABHUPADA’S BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS and it’s world audience as well! OF THIS THERE IS NO DOUBT WHATSOEVER! AND WHY DOES THE GOVERNING BODY COMMISSION (GBC) OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS NOT TAKE SOME RESPONSIBLE ACTION ON THIS POINT???? THIS IS VERY SERIOUS MATTER!!! THIS IS VERY SERIOUS ISKCON BUSINESS. THIS IS MOST SERIOUS ISKCON BUSINESS.!!! Helloooooo are you sleeping on the wheel? Please watch for the crash.

The above example is only one of them among hundred others and perhaps thousands of them. Little by little they changed the whole Bhagavad Gita As It Is to their own agenda. Therefore I am saying for the time being we only have

number one

Free Wheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva

and number two

Free Wheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita

and we are in great and dire need of

Bhagavad Gita As It Is by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Founder of the International Hare Krishna Movement, Founder of the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust and Founder of the Back to Godhead Magazine.

This is not your ordinary kirtan. This is an extra-ordinary kirtan, meaning to say a kirtan outside the usual kirtan norms. At 7.12 minutes or so for example, it produces a fabulous rhythm that one cannot resist. One is literally forced to join. The pull of this kirtan is irresistible. What an incredible swing!!! And Maharaja goes into ecstasy. When no one or few only would turn up at kirtans, Srila Prabhupada used to console the devotees and say: “Did you not see the demigods like Lord Brahma and big personalities like Narada Muni attending the kirtan? Did you not see them?” I personally admit frankly that I don’t see them, but I trust the wise words and superior vision of my Spiritual Master and I am sure that this particular kirtan was also visited by great invisible personalities from the higher realm. Many people also under-assess themselves in the matter of mystic experience, especially in relation with the practice of Krishna consciousness which is so eeeeeeeasy!!! One can practice Krishna consciousness by eating, one can practice Krishna consciousness by singing and one can practice Krishna consciousness by dancing also. As Srila Prabhupada in His transcendental joly mood used to challenge: “Where is the difficulty?….. It is simply a transcendental recreational system.” Good kirtans attract and this is a very good kirtan. Sometimes, when I am out on book distribution, this particular kirtan, its melody and intensity automatically come to mind. This is, for me at least, the sign of a quality kirtan. And the solos and their tremolos are just catching us like a whirlwind and carry one to the eternal realms of ever blissfulness.. So is the enthusiasm of these Lithuanian devotees! All glories the Lithuanian Krishna Yatra!!! My brand new MacBook Pro, 16 inch, also helps as it produces superior sound.

The leader of this group is also an extra-ordinary devotee, outside the norms of ordinary devotional service, His Holiness BB Govinda Swami of USA. He is in the renounced order of life, a most prestigious position. Why prestigious? Because he is the controller of his senses. The senses do not control him. According to Bhagavad Gita, version 3, chapter 2, verse 58, the ideal of sense control is exhibited by the tortoise:

“One who is able to withdraw his senses from the sense objects, as the tortoise withdraws its limbs within the shell is to be understood as fixed up in his consciousness.”

In the purport, version 3, of the same verse Srila Prabhupada further explains:

“The test of a yogi, devotee, or self-realized soul is that he must be able to control the senses according to his plan and not be the servant of the senses and thus be directed by the dictation of the senses. That is the answer to the question as to how the yogi is situated. The senses are compared to venomous serpents and want to act very loosely, without any restriction. Like a snake charmer, the yogi, or the devotee must be very strong to ever control the serpents. The senses should never be allowed to act independently. There are many injunctions in the revealed scriptures and some of them are do-not’s and some of them are do’s. Unless one is able to follow the do’s and the do-not’s restricting oneself from sense enjoyment, it is not possible for one to fix the mind in Krishna consciousness. The best example set in here is the tortoise. The tortoise can at any moment wind up the business of the senses, and at any time it can exhibit the senses for a particular purpose. The senses of the Krishna conscious persons are used only for some particular purpose in the service of the Lord. Arjuna is being taught herewith to use his senses for the service of the Lord, and not use his senses for his own satisfaction. To keep the senses always in the service of the Lord is the example set by the analogy of the tortoise, who keeps the senses within. “

I met His Holiness some years ago at the New Govardhana, Murwillumbah, NSW, Festival Sacred Sound Kirtan Retreat, Australia, and we chatted. Then suddenly and bluntly, American style, he dropped an artillery shell so to say. He vibrated the following mantra: ” I am a dog”. To be blunt, uncompromising and forthright is often of advantage. One gets to the essence of things very quickly and clears up the matter in seconds. No time wasted here.

But the real question here is what did the HH BB Govinda Swami mean to say? Do we have to take him literally? Please be careful here and to take it literally would amount to a serious offence at the holy feet a truly modern saint. His statement can be interpreted in various ways. In any case, he certainly deserves our unreserved thousandfold dandavats or obeisances.

But what it really means is that in his great wisdom, the Swami is endeavouring to meticulously trying to keep his sense under control at every second of the day. There is a special designation for this type of life. I’ll have to research it. I suspect it can be found in the Nectar of Instruction. That’s why he is honoured as a Swami, the top most position in human society. We are constantly being bombarded by messages of sense gratification and we have to say NO. HH Kadamba Kanana Swami, now departed, summed it up once for me and I still thank him very much for his precious and kind association of a few seconds only (lava matra). His simple but powerful mantra was “I just say NO”. It truly represented a new hint how to say NO to the roaming mind and a new direction in my own life. On the basis of the input of the senses such as the eye and ears etc …the mind will make various suggestion for sense gratification and this is what HH Kadamba Kanana Swami says NO to. I may reveal here another intimate and glorious details about HH Kadamba Kanana Maharaja that at Brisbane Rathayatra, he once asked me to support him from under his arms. We were old acquaintances. He was so exhausted from global travel and Krishna service that he feared to collapse on the spot at any time. All glories to His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami and disciples, who sacrificed his everything for Krishna service !!! All glories to Saint Kadamba Kanana Swami!

Caitanya Caritamrta, Madhya 22.54

sadhu-sanga’, ‘sadhu-sanga’ — sarva-sastre kaya
lava-matra sadhu-sange sarva-siddhi haya

Word for word rendition

sadhu-sanga sadhu-sanga — association with pure devotees; sarva-sastre — all the revealed scriptures; kaya — say; lava-matra — even for a moment; sadhu-sange — by association with a devotee; sarva-siddhi — all success; haya — there is.

TRANSLATION

The verdict of all revealed scriptures is that by even a moment’s association with a pure devotee, one can attain all success.

Melodious music attracts the mind, whether it be a Chinese military band as described in the previous posting or this wonderful Krishna kirtan. But what is the difference? Both make us feel happy and exhilarant and we may dance at the sound of both. So what is the difference? Can we perceive the difference? Is there a measuring machine that will indicate the difference: saying this is material sound and this is a spiritual sound, some kind of a Geiger counter for spiritual radiations? Empirical approach to spiritual matters is pretty much a hopeless endeavour because there is a fundamental incompatibility between spirit and matter . So no, there is no such machine! So how do we know what is what? We know from Shastra or Holy Scriptures such as Bhagavad Gita As It Is and Srimad Bhagavatam by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. He is the bona fide and empowered world teacher in spiritual matters . We accept the authority of Shastra. So a little faith is required. Faith in the authenticity of Shastra and faith in Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada confirms this in BGAII Chapter 2 where He states that there is no other way to know about the soul but through Vedic scriptures. Instead of indulging in “the hidden delights” of the flesh, the wise cultivates the science of self realisation by realising a higher taste and is thus not interested in the realm of enjoyment of the materialists. Enjoying the urinals, or pleasure centred on the urinals, either lingam or yoni, yuck!!! (urinals in the sense that where urine comes from and not in the sense where urine is deposited as my Mac book Pro Oxford dictionary suggests.)

One such self realised soul is Yamunacarya.

{In reference to the low-grade happiness of sex life, Yamunacarya says in this connection:

yad-avadhi mama cetah krsna-padaravinde
nava-nava-rasa-dhamany udyatam rantum asit
tad-avadhi bata nari-sangame smaryamane
bhavati mukha-vikarah susthu nisthivanam ca

“Since I have been engaged in the transcendental loving service of Krsna, realizing ever-new pleasure in Him, whenever I think of sex pleasure, I spit at the thought, and my lips curl with distaste.” Yamunacarya had formerly been a great king who enjoyed sexual happiness in various ways, but since he later engaged himself in the service of the Lord, he enjoyed spiritual bliss and hated to think of sex life. If sexual thoughts came to him, he would spit with disgust.} Ref. VedaBase => Srimad-Bhagavatam 7.9.45

Military marches are also a kind of a dance, perhaps comparable to Lord Shiva’s dance at the time of destruction. Whence the use of the word choreography. Here is what the MacBook dictionary gives for the word choreography:

choreography | ˌkɒrɪˈɒɡrəfi | noun [mass noun] 

the sequence of steps and movements in dance or figure skating, especially in a ballet or other staged dance: the rumbustious choreography reflects the themes of the original play. 

• the art or practice of designing choreographic sequences: as well as dancing she did a great deal of choreography. 

We note that it does not make reference to military marches at all. The word choreography can however be used very adequately in this military context. Just see the discipline in this army!!! Just see the “esprit de corps” of this army!!! Just see the cohesion of this army!!! The repetitive melody is fabulously pleasant-sounding, strong and hard-hitting and extremely intoxicating as well. Also their steps are quite naturally elegant and not as pretentious and ostensibly artificial like that of some other nations, which we may not mention. The boots definitely crackle in unison. Obviously a strong, impressive, and well discipline army to defend a people of 1.4 billion souls. China has a great culture of its own, is very careful to protect it, and we may be inspired in our determination to execute our own Krishna conscious duties by viewing this glorious images! All glories to the-for-the-time-being unknown author of this march. Would you be prepared and agree to die at the sound of this music???

And all glories to the ladies in red!!!

And all glories to the ladies in navy blue!!!

And all glories to the ladies in white!!!

And all glories to the ladies in military green or khaki!!

But nothing warrants sexism in reverse:

So all glories to all men as well that participated in the parade.

If my information is correct and please correct me if I am wrong, it would appear that Srila Prabhupada said the Chinese will be last to join the Krishna Consciousness Movement and they would be THE STRONGEST. Last definitely does not mean least.

But this is all sectarianism, which sounds a bit negative. There is of course another cultural dimension to it. Every human body comes with its own culture, its own cultural variants and above all with its very own unlimited mixture of the three nodes of material nature. Krishna, being God, the Supreme Being, certainly does not lack imagination and resources and is thus able to satisfy each and everyone-soul in their expressive expectations. In the Vedas, it is said there are 400 000 human species.

“The living entities are described as ananta, or unlimited; nonetheless, they are said to belong to 8,400,000 species. As stated in the Visnu Purana:

jala-ja nava-laksani sthavara laksa-vimsati
krmayo rudra-sankhyakah paksinam dasa-laksanam
trimsal-laksani pasavah catur-laksani manusah

“There are 900,000 species living in the water. There are also 2,000,000 nonmoving living entities (sthavara), such as trees and plants. There are also 1, 100,000 species of insects and reptiles, and there are 1,000,000 species of birds. As far as quadrupeds are concerned, there are 3,000,000 varieties, and there are 400,000 human species.” Some of these species may exist on one planet and not on another, but in any case within all the planets of the universe — and even in the sun — there are living entities. This is the verdict of the Vedic literatures. Ref. VedaBase => Caitanya Caritarmta Madhya 19.138

We have the Chinese sect on display here. Their immediate competitor is the USA sect, which is not really the expression of one ethnic identity, as is the case for the Chinese. The same applies to Australia, which seems more to be an international gathering of individuals of higher moral standards. And let us not forget the original people of Australia to whom we pay our respects. It is very striking that some aboriginal expressions are so close to the Sanskrit language just like a village in New South Wales called “Mandurama”. More research is required in this field.

Then there is the Russian sect who are unjustly wreaking havoc on their immediate neighbour, the Ukrainian sect. And the world is thus divided in another 185 or so other sects as well. We should note that 5000 years ago the world was ONE, with its administrative head in New Delhi, India. Because we are not being taught these matters at any level of our western schooling, we may say that we are misinformed at the best, brainwashed at the worst.

Under the direction of the Krishna Consciousness Movement the tendency now is to become ONE again , because the human nature whatever its origin or location on the planet is after all ONE. The Krishna Consciousness Movement is the only movement that has got the right ideology to unify the whole planet. The Krishna Consciousness Movement is the only movement that has got the powerful Krishna ideology to unify the whole planet. The Communist Movement tried the same but failed. Globalisation minds for Krishna consciousness from all countries please come forward and unite.

Because I think that the land in which I have taken birth is worshipable and because above all I think I am this body. I am Chinese, I am American. I am French, I am black, I am white, I am female or I am male, I am dog, I am cat . This is technically called false ego or in Sanskrit “ahankara”. It is a wrong or false identification. To use President Trump’s expression: it is “a fake identification”. Just like in the mad house someone may think that he is Hitler or someone else will think she is Cleopatra. If we do not know what is our real identity, then we are mad or crazy and the world becomes a very dangerous place to life in. If you present false identity papers at customs then you are in all sorts of trouble. Similarly because of our false identification, we are in all sorts of problems. As particularly explained in the first part of the second chapter of Bhagavada Gita As It Is, there is however real identity. My real identity is that I am spirit soul part and parcel of the Supreme Spirit or God, Krishna. The Sanskrit Mantra is ” Aham Brahmasmi”. So that if I want to be a soldier let me become Krishna’s soldier, as Arjuna did. Amazingly some people when asked “What is your identity” give the correct answer on the spot: “I am spirit soul” That is real knowledge and real learning.

It is summed up in Bhagavad Gita, Version 3, chapter 2, verse 12:

“Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.”

Bhagavad Gita As It Is, version 3, chapter 5, text 18 also states:

vidya-vinaya-sampanne
brahmane gavi hastini
suni caiva sva-pake ca
panditah sama-darsinah

Word for word rendition

vidya — with education; vinaya — and gentleness; sampanne — fully equipped; brahmane — in the brahmana; gavi — in the cow; hastini — in the elephant; suni — in the dog; ca — and; eva — certainly; sva — pake — in the dog — eater (the outcaste); ca — respectively; panditah — those who are wise; sama-darsinah — who see with equal vision.

TRANSLATION

On account of his true knowledge and humble nature, one who is thus situated in Krishna consciousness, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle Brahmin, a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog eater (outcast)

PURPORT

A Krsna conscious person does not make any distinction between species or castes. The brahmana and the outcaste may be different from the social point of view, or a dog, a cow, and an elephant may be different from the point of view of species, but these differences of body are meaningless from the viewpoint of a learned transcendentalist. This is due to their relationship to the Supreme, for the Supreme Lord, by His plenary portion as Paramatma, is present in everyone’s heart. Such an understanding of the Supreme is real knowledge. As far as the bodies are concerned in different castes or different species of life, the Lord is equally kind to everyone because He treats every living being as a friend yet maintains Himself as Paramatma regardless of the circumstances of the living entities. The Lord as Paramatma is present both in the outcaste and in the brahmana, although the body of a brahmana and that of an outcaste are not the same. The bodies are material productions of different modes of material nature, but the soul and the Supersoul within the body are of the same spiritual quality. The similarity in the quality of the soul and the Supersoul, however, does not make them equal in quantity, for the individual soul is present only in that particular body whereas the Paramatma is present in each and every body. A Krsna conscious person has full knowledge of this, and therefore he is truly learned and has equal vision. The similar characteristics of the soul and Supersoul are that they are both conscious, eternal and blissful. But the difference is that the individual soul is conscious within the limited jurisdiction of the body whereas the Supersoul is conscious of all bodies. The Supersoul is present in all bodies without distinction.(This purport is still subject to version three verification)

Please chant

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna

Krishna Krishna Hare Hare

Hare Rama Hare Rama

Rama Rama Hare Hare

ALWAYS or at the very least chant 1728 Hare Krishna mantras daily, i.e. about two hours of Hare Krishna meditation. Also please follow the regulative pinciples of freedom. This expression regulative principles of freedom is found in the Bhagavad Gita 2.64 Version 3, as follows:

2.64 Being freed from all attachment and detachment, a person who has control over his senses through the regulated principles of freedom can obtain the complete mercy of the Lord.

The regulative principles of freedom are 4 in number as follows:

No illicit sex

No gambling

No intoxication

No eating of meat, fish and eggs.

If one adopts this lifestyle over an extended period of time and is able to maintain his position, then he can achieve “the complete mercy of the Lord” i.e. his or her life becomes perfect . Hare Krishna!

Australia’s official “religion” is Courtesy to one another. Others will say: Treat others as you would want to be treated yourself. That’s truly a wonderful religion and we, as members of the Hare Krishna Movement, we fully adhere to this religion as well.

And we may say that Queensland excels in this matter because up to 1990, the Queensland Police Force itself adhered to the motto “Firmness with courtesy” That is truly a wonderful logo. The current motto is “With honour we serve”. I can hear some voices of dissent in the back, but that’s ok. 🙂 May be we should consider an interstate courtesy competition, to find out which really is the most courteous state.

to be continued….

My apologies! I formally and officially retract my statement that our two current editions of Bhagavad Gita are to be called

One. Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva

and

Two. Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita

Instead they are to be called from now on

One. Free wheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva

and

Two. Free wheeling Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita

That’ s an improvement. No one can deny it.

Thank you for your attention.

Can We Keep Society from Going to the Dogs?

Srila Prabhupada speaks out to India’s Bhavan’s Journal: “A dog comes when there are some eatables; I say ‘Hut!’ and he goes away. But again he comes-he has no memory. So when our memory of God is reducing, that means that our human qualities are reducing…. There is no religion, simply a dog’s race. The dog is running on four legs, and you are running on four wheels-that’s all. And you think that the four-wheel race is advancement of civilization!”

Ref. VedaBase => SSR 6b: Can We Keep Society from Going to the Dogs?

Srila Prabhupada is so smart and His mantras are so powerful.

“This word man, man means mind. Man-tra — tra means deliverance. So mantra means which delivers from our mental platform. Every one of us are now hovering either on the bodily platform or on the mental platform, subtle. Mental platform is subtle, and bodily platform is gross. But beyond this mind there is intelligence, and beyond intelligence there is soul. So by this mantra we, I mean to say, cross over the mental platform, intellectual platform, and come directly to the spiritual platform. And as soon as we come to the spiritual platform and we understand our relationship with Krsna, or God, then we are in peace.Ref. VedaBase => Press Conference – June 26, 1971, Paris

Every word and sentence in whatever language is a mantra.

We could even extend this further and say that every sound vibration is a mantra.

African tam tam is a mantra.

Ludwig van Beethoven produced many mind charming mantras.

Of course, these last statements of mine do not, strictly speaking, satisfy the definition of mantra given by Srila Prabhupada in His Press Conference of June 26, 1971 in Paris, as that which brings us to the spiritual platform.

So yes, in this particular case, I am stretching things a little.

But if we define mantra as a particular sound vibration to achieve a very particular aim, then all is fine. There is no better activity than Samkirtan book distribution to realise, to practice and refine the use and power of mantra. The preacher is expert in the use of mantra. Any orator must be. Amen or Om Tat Sat.

Besides the innumerable and unauthorised changes, additions and subtractions to the Original Transcript (OT) of Bhagavad Gita As It Is by Srila Prabhupada Himself, current version 1 and current version 2 of Bhagavad Gita As It Is are tinged to an unacceptably high degree of IMPERSONALISM, the latter being a direct result of the former, thus defeating directly Srila Prabhupada’s aim and mission to rid the western world of IMPERSONALISM AND VOIDISM, as expressed in His second Pranam Mantra. It is even worse than that, much worse. The highest controlling authority of ISKCON has been wisely called by Srila Prabhupada the Governing Board Commission (GBC), not to be confused with the other GBC or Global Business Corporation or even the GothBoiClique, an emo rap collective founded in Los Angeles around 2012-2013.

Getting back to impersonalism, we find that even members of the GBC don’t have the common courtesy to answer an e-letter when written to because they are impersonalists at the best. Please note “at the best”. My own co-GBC, an individual of the name Ramai Swami has even blocked me from reaching him by email. NOW WHAT’s WRONG WITH HIM? Does he fall into he category “impersonalist at the best”? I shall have to call him “a super-impersonalist at the best” because he blocked me. How then can he have the common courtesy to reply me when written to. I may have to send my faithful Himalayan Mastiff Dog to say hello to him. The 4 managers of the Prabhupada Vyasapuja book 2024 definitely fall into this category by a minimum rate of 200 % as well. They are Satyamedha Gauranga Dasa, Ananda Tirtha Das, whom I knew as a small child in Perth Western Australia, and Kaisori Devi Dasi, a female, and finally the good old Praghosa Dasa. I have send them an email about the unfair dismissal of this humble self from the pages of the international Vyasapuja book by none other than DRAVIDA PRABHU of San Diego, California. I have suggested that I be reinstated in my rightful position along with my party THE AUSTRALIAN SOCIETY for KRISHNA CULTURE soon the be THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR KRISHNA CULTURE as a yearly contributor to the International Vyasapuja Book on the occasion of the birthday anniversary of our glorious founder His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Letter dated August 23 rd, it would appear that in their unfathomable wisdom they have decided to ignore my letter. So be it IMPERSONALISTS! For a so- called devotee and so called bhakti yogi, this is certainly the worst insult. An impersonalist can never gain the association of the Supreme Personality of Godhead because an impersonalist is by nature offensive. Better be a sworn personal enemy of Krishna like Kamsa. That is a much better position because if Krishna personally kills you your material life has just ended. Please see the chapter “The killing of Kamsa” in Srila Prabhupada’s Krishna book.

And recently on the occasion of HH Holiness Gopal Krishna Swami’s birthday ceremony, I had a similar experience with one of his disciples of similar GBC rank, an suave Indian individual named Shyamananda Krishna Prabhu. His email address is: shyamananda.gkg@gmail.com. Now here we may point out another craziness of ISKCON management. If my information is correct, this individual Shyamananda is the Governing Body Commissioner of Bangladesh, but his residence is Brisbane, Australia. How can a responsible company director live outside his zone of control? Which company will allow such a farce? I know Srila Prabhupada the supreme director of ISKCON will not allow that and would blast him heavily for such nonsense to be rectified. And if not rectified, He will fire him. Company director means direct hands on the job, not remote management or electronic management. This is a farce. This individual puts his own sense gratification above the duty of care he has to his zone of management.

There is another higher level manager of ISKCON, who did the very same thing-that is to put his own sense gratification and pride before the good of the community. When the very house which served as a Temple for SRI SRI Gaura Nitai was sold at 32 Jennifer road, Seventeen Mile Rocks, this Tirtharaja or Anthony Sticha acted in a eccentric way which harmed very seriously the future and plans of ISKCON Brisbane. Quite ridiculously, this Anthony Sticha has tried every trick in the book to become a GBC of ISKCON himself. He was also involved in the disastrous and untimely sale of the property opposite 32 Jennifer road and which is now owned and developed by the Riverlife Baptist Church. This untimely sale resulted in the loss of millions of dollars for ISKCON Brisbane. And if my info is correct Tirtharaja is still a high level ISKCON manager for North Queensland and the Northern Territory.


Out of respect for our most illustrious spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, instead of quoting only Pranam Mantra number 2 for the illustration of our thesis, we shall quote both mantras together as they form a cluster mantra for the glorification of Srila Prabhupada, the most dynamic and advanced philosopher and religionist of the modern era and for the next ten thousand years to come, as follows:

nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
srimate bhaktivedanta-svamin iti namine

namas te sarasvate deve gaura-vani-pracarine
nirvisesa-sunyavadi-pascatya-desa-tarine

“I offer my respectful obeisances unto His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who is very dear to Lord Krsna, having taken shelter at His lotus feet.

Our respectful obeisances are unto you, O spiritual master, servant of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami. You are kindly preaching the message of Lord Caitanyadeva and delivering the Western countries, which are filled with impersonalism and voidism.”

I suppose we should consider ourselves lucky that the editors have not erased the word “kindly” in the second mantra.

There will soon be a time when the ISKCON world as it is now will have to make a decision to stick to the status quo or to change in the light of the new revelation of Bhagavad Gita version 3.

As every one understands, those who will opt for the status quo will automatically become another offensive party to the betrayal of Srila Prabhupada and may wither away, whereas those who will embrace proper, relevant and authorised changes will prosper beyond our wildest dreams as did Srila Prabhupada Himself.

As an outstanding illustration of my point, I have met this Sunday morning of the 15 September 2024, an intelligent American lady in her seventies who has practically joined in her long ATMA-TATTVA searching life, every pseudo spiritual party available on the market–no need to give any names, you know which parties I mean–but has persistently refused to join ISKCON because she was under the impression that Srila Prabhupada is sexist. She has received at least twice two beautiful spiritual names, which I shall not reveal here in order to protect her privacy. Neither have I asked her permission to do so. This is also an outstanding illustration of the disastrous consequences caused by ISKCON’s leadership’s ignorance. There is dire need for a superior Commission to control the GBC. This Commision will be more ethical, non-dogmatic, non-sectarianand and generally wiser than the current GBC.

But by FATIMA’S HELL –a polite rendition of another expression–Srila Prabhupada is NOT sexist, whereas His two Bhagavad Gita editors ARE SEXIST, as well as both current presentation of Bhagavad Gita As It Is ARE SEXIST and as a consequences the whole of the ISKCON world including Srila Prabhupada Himself will appear to be sexist to the world and this may even–it must– go beyond and deeper than appearances, as the intelligent reader will conclude and understand. These two Bhagavad Gitas are to be called Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Hayagriva and Bhagavad Gita As It Is NOT by Jayadvaita.

Srila Pabhupada is the kindest, most human, most considerate, smartest, fairest, misunderstood, under-glorified, under-appreciated, most concerned for the future of humanity, the greatest well wisher of humanity, most heavily mission-burdened individual, most intelligent, most dynamic and most advanced religious reformer and philosopher of the modern era. I often mention to my costumers, specially pharmacists, that Srila Prabhupada was a pharmacist in Allahabad, a credit to all pharmacists in the world. And finally Srila Prabhupada is a special emissary especially deputed by God, Krishna, to clear up the confusion, chaos and ignorance of these trouble times. He does have all the answers and all the answers are in his books.

Most finally, Srila Prabhupada is a faultless–means you just can’t find any defects– perfected being of the divine realm, as explained in the Bhagavad Gita. Nothing is material about Srila Prabhupada. He is 100 per cent transcendental and other-worldly and those who follow Him seriously will attain the very same status and the very same destination.

And why am I the only protestant in this odious case of Prabhupada abuse?

Why am I the only protestant in this odious case of elder abuse also called ageism?

Why am I the only protestant in the odious case of abuse of the departed heroe: shall we call it “departism”. I believe this concept has not been invested in the English language yet and I am a pioneer in the field. Please correct me if I am wrong. We can’t call it heroism as it is situated at the very other end of the scale. We may call it the lowest form of cowardice. To abuse living elderly is punishable by the law and is definitely cowardice. But to abuse the departed heroic elders is the lowest and most abject from of ageism. You just can’t get any lower. Srila Prabhupada is actually a war hero, because we fight Maya or the illusory energy unceasingly. Maya is another energy of the Lord. She is deputed by the Lord to keep us in this material world. She is the superintendent of the fort of the material world. She is a very powerful mystic yogini. She has at her disposal very powerful weapons such as sex and money. Please become aware of these facst. Please be-ware.

So why am I the only protestant? Why? Or am I not the only protestant ? Srila Prabhupada has got so many true and sincere disciples. Not the pretenders and abusers Jayadvaita and Hayagriva though and THEIR SUPPORTERS AS WELL. SRILA PRABHUPADA HAS GOT THOUSANDS OF DISCIPLES. Some of them have also departed indeed. Hayagriva has also departed. Naturally It is the duty of the true disciple to defend his Spiritual Master when attacked by those who are lower than the dogs. THIS WILL BE A TEST OF DISCIPLESHIP. So come on true disciples–and why not grand-disciples as well– of Srila Prabhupada stand up and defend and protect our most glorious and beloved Srila Prabhupada against these cheaters and elder abusers.

Let me rephrase it: Come on true and strong FOLLOWERS of Srila Prabhupada, please stand up and fight to defend and protect our most exalted personality, Srila Prabhupada, the saviour of the world.

The Queensland Police Service’s old motto was “Firmness with Courtesy”. And the human and personal — as opposed to impersonal– concern of courtesy included in this motto sounds very nice indeed. It was changed to “With Honour We Serve”. Our own motto may be.

“To serve, to defend, to protect and to fight for Srila Prabhupada.”

Here is another things that needs to be mentioned. People please beware. Some pseudo devotees of ISKCON are plain liars. They will not hesitate to lie to obtain what they want from you. This has been brought to my attention by Tom, the respected manager of the Byron Bay Farmer’s Market. Over the years these pseudo devotees of ISKCON have thus established their sad reputation and tarnished the good reputation of ISKCON itself. And Tom is very vigilant about this. He has controlled me in April 2022. And this time again in 2024 he has explained to me what are the procedure to be admitted to the markets. And of course, I have no choice but to surrender to his conditions as everyone else does. Please note carefully that I am not acting on my own behalf. I am acting on the behalf of Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. There is a gulf of difference between self centred egoistical acts and selflessly acting for Krishna as He demands in Bhagavad Gita As It Is version 3, chapter 18 verse 66:

Give up all varieties of religion, and just surrender unto Me; and in return I shall protect you from all sinful reactions. Therefore, there is no need to fear. 

Just as the state has got a natural right to demand military service –or taxes for that matter– from its citizens of both genders, similarly God or Krishna has got a superior right to demand our service. And He clearly says in His law book Bagavad Gita As It Is 2.49, that those who want to enjoy the fruits of their work are misers.

Bhagavad Gita 2.49 Version 3: “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.”

Their are two more strong quotes on liars and the subject of lying from Srimad Bhagavatam, the step after Bhagavad Gita, that I may add:

SB 8.20.4

There is nothing more sinful than untruthfulness. Because of this, mother earth once said, “I can bear any heavy thing except a person who is a liar.”

PURPORT

On the surface of the earth there are many great mountains and oceans that are very heavy, and mother earth has no difficulty carrying them. But she feels very much overburdened when she carries even one person who is a liar. It is said that in Kali-yuga lying is a common affair: mayaiva vyavaharike (SB 12.2.3). Even in the most common dealings, people are accustomed to speaking so many lies. No one is free from the sinful reactions of speaking lies. Under the circumstances, one can just imagine how this has overburdened the earth, and indeed the entire universe.

SB 10.88.34

If the words of Lord Shambhu prove untrue in any way, O best of the demons, then kill the liar so he may never lie again.

I have lodged a formal complaint regarding this matter with the Secretariat of the International Society for Krishna consciousness, Australia chapter, in Melbourne on September 12 th. Waiting for a reply now.

Om tat sat.
