Bhakti -

After having talks with Yugal Kishore Das, I can say that we all need to get along, we all have our own views, but some of the comments esp Radhapadaji are very speculative and hurting, I must say I have never heard of or met anybody who denies the disiplic succession to Srila Prabhupada is true, so I am new to all this, so please forgive me for any offences caused esp Radhapadaji etc.

Which ones in particular? You may just send them through email so that others are not disturbed. As Madhava and Ananga have pointed out: Don't just accuse someone of 'hurting feelings' or 'speculating'. Bring out the issue and lets discuss it on the table or in private. I am open for a discussion, but these accusations 'your bad' without letting me know what's bad is useless.

Indeed. Such statements need to be founded on something. Case examples.

As the administrator of the forums, I am myself not fond of having abusive posts online; therefore each post has a "Report This Post" link on their bottom right corner. If anyone feels that any particular post is offensive or otherwise inappropriate, they can click on that link and fill in a word or two in explaining why they think so, and it will be sent to all the moderators of the board for their consideration.

Govindaram, if you care to do some research on the parampara-issue, you may want to review the old Bhagavata-Parampara vs.Pancharatriki-Parampara thread. That is, if you feel you are prepared to examine the historical controversies of the tradition. At any rate, I kindly request you to conduct your study in private for the time being, as I think we've filled our quota of Gaudiya Math related flame discussions for a while now.

Radhapada & Madhavaji

Trying to figure out the parampara-system and all the in/outs is like, say having a question and answer session with an Athiest, you just can't win, its a matter of faith as well, I choose to believe in Krishna and the parampara.

Thats me being blunt, anyway I find this whole subject
boring and taxing on my tiny brain, so you are right
lets let it R.I.P. Amen.

So do we.

As you wish, you have the freedom to believe in whatever you choose to. I don't appreciate the comparison of discussing with an atheist all that much, though.

Sorry I don't write as well as I think, if you know what I mean...the above comparison was a crude example,

Buts its how I feel..I believe in the parampara to Srila Prabhupada others as well..

The atheist remark was appropriate (for me), as it says if you don't believe in Srila Prabhupada you are a atheist.

Because without His Divine Grace I would not have known about Sri Radha-Krishna & Chanting..

I hope you know what I am saying

Haribol

This is a shocking statement of bigotry. Who says this?

Hare Krishna





Nobody says it Advaitadasji, I meant after finding out about His Divine Grace it is hard for anyone to not admire and respect him as a Bona-Fide Spiritual Master, I think I
got ahead of myself with that statement..but what the hey!

God damned, Prabhupada is one among many gurus, and gurus differ. If someone doesn't agree with Prabhupada, he doesn't become an atheist, just as no follower of Prabhupada becomes an atheist if they disagree with some other Gaudiya guru.

This topic is closed now. I requested people to not open such topics. Frankly speaking I am really getting sick of all this emotional bigotry.
