"Why
do I have to compromise with Turley
or
Nityananda to get things done?"
|
Dear Prabhu's,
please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
After E Jerk
Rogueford's attack on Srila Prabhupada in the New York Times,
October1998 where he blames His Divine Grace's teachings for all the
child abuse in ISKCON, Puranjana dasa completely ignored repeated
requests by Sanatana dasa to make some counter propaganda against
these blasphemous attacks in his newsletter PADA.
After i heard
about this i wrote Puranjana dasa a letter on 5th June 2000, in
which i inquired from him why he did nothing about these attacks as
he was engaged in the service of defending Srila Prabhupada's good
name from being defamed (Prabhupada Anti Defamation Association). I
also point out to him the dangers of Mr. Roguefords offensive
mentality and the possibility of further articles once the Turley
case began. He replied as follows:
Puranjana dasa: So
Turley will do some major harassment, but he is not my paid up lawyer,
so I cannot control every move he makes. It is stupid of you
to think he will, and it is stupid of you to think I should now attack
this man when he needs my testimony for the molest charges,
and that is the only way these molest charges will be addressed
legally.....Why do I have to compromise with Turley or
Nityananda to get things done? Where are the "real
warriors" that you infer should do the job? And if I did not do
it properly, why didn't you?
The interesting
point to note here is Puranjana dasa is openly admitting as early as
the 5th of June 2000 that he is compromised with Turley . This would
clearly indicate that he was aware of the plaintiffs complaint number
35 against Srila Prabhupada blaming him of being a duplicitous leader
of the child molester cult, before it was publicly released on 12th
June 7 days later.
The reason for his
compromise he says is that they need his testimony for the molest
charges. So in other words Puranjana sold out, his desire to kick out
tamalt is so strong that he compromises with people who are
blaspheming Srila Prabhupada.
Let's look at what
Srila Prabhupada says about compromise.
Paramahamsa: Our
position in preaching should be to encourage people in all
respects to associate with us. Prabhupada: Yes. Paramahamsa: That means sometimes we might have to compromise in certain ways. Prabhupada: Why compromise? You don't compromise. Then you associate with him. If you make compromise, then you associate with him. Then gradually you'll also go down. When we, when we see some person, we do not associate with him, but we give him chance to associate with me. Why you should make compromise? What is the reason? If you know something positively, why should you make compromise? When people come to talk with me, see me, I don't make any compromise. Do I make any compromise? Devotees: No. Prabhupada: Then why shall we make compromise? That gentleman, Mr. Herbert, Gene Herbert, he said that "It has taken eighteen years to write these books." I said, "Still, there are so many mistakes." Immediately I said. And he could not say anything. Do you remember that? Devotees: Yes. Prabhupada: Immediately I said, "Yes, you have labored eighteen years. Still, there are so many mistakes." Nitai: Anyone else would have said, "Oh! Very nice." Prabhupada: (laughs) Eh? I did not say. (S.P. Morning Walk June 11, 1974, Paris)
So Puranjana
should have known positively that Srila Prabhupada was not to blame in
any way and was not covering anything up, still dictated my maya he
made a compromise. This is his betrayal of Srila Prabhupada.
So what is the
result of his making a compromise with Turley ? Srila Prabhupada says:
Why
compromise? You don't compromise. Then you associate with him. If you
make compromise, then you associate with him. Then gradually you'll
also go down.
So Puranjana due
to his compromise is associating with Turley and the rurukula children
who are blaspheming Srila Prabhupada. Now he is also going down by
their association, in other words he is also blaming Prabhupada. This
is shown by his stanch defence of the blasphemers and his attacks on
devotees like Sanatana prabhu who are trying to save him from his
madness by presenting Srila Prabhupada's teachings on the correct
Vaisnava behaviour towards blasphemy of the Lord and His devotees.
Because he has
betrayed Srila Prabhupada and compromised with the blasphemers, then
to protect this falsehood he has taken to so many other falsehoods.
Prabhupada: That
is the way of falsehood. If once you speak something false, then to
protect that falsehood you have to take to so many other falsehoods.
This is the way of falsehood.
Paramahamsa: One lie leads to another.
(S.P.
Morning Walk June 2, 1975, Honolulu)
In regards to
Puranjana's compromise with Nityananda dasa, this again reveals his
betrayal of Srila Prabhupada and Sulocana prabhu.
Puranjana dasa: Again,
I also did not have any funding to get the poison forensics done, but
as soon as I get Nityananda to do it, Sanat says that I am
licking Satsvarupa's boots. He cannot do it, but if someone else does,
he bites with his viper venom. Again, if we ever do a poison
court case, we will need these forensics. So I get it done, somehow or
other, and then you folks harass me because I had to use
someone you do not like to get it done?
Note: So Puranjana
gets the forensics done with the help of Nityananda's money, which he
got from selling Satsvarupa's poison book lilamarta. So again we see
Puranjana so driven by his desire to get tamalt out that he supports
the most blasphemous writings of satsvarupa.
Below we have
including chapter seven of Sulocana prabhu's Guru Business, but first
let us get a glimpse of Sulocana's feeling of lilamrta:
Sulocana prabhu:
No devotee in his right mind should read even one page of "Lilamrta,"
and those copies that have already been distributed should be
recovered and burned.
Note: Here we
again clearly see Puranjana's betrayal of Sulocana prabhu. Sulocana
prabhu says burn lilamrta and purjana says sell lilamrta, poison
everyone and give me the money from the profits so i can get tamalt in
jail and then sit in his seat.
Another point in
regards to Sulocana saying "those copies that have already been
distributed should be recovered and burned." that burning was
done at Gita Nagari by Sanatana prabhu.
Sulocana prabhu:
No one will deny that Satsvarupa appears to be glorifying Srila
Prabhupada in the Lilamrta. The problem is that, along with the
glorification, he has also defamed Prabhupada. In one
breath Srila Prabhupada is described being completely transcendental
and beyond ordinary emotions, etc., but in the next sentence
he is described as being dependent on a Mayavadi, or confused,
insecure, etc. This makes the whole thing contradictory, bewildering,
and offensive. It takes on the characteristics of milk touched by the
lips of a serpent.
Sulocana prabhu:
This last statement is the reason that Srila Prabhupada remained in
household life: To set the example for us. But Satsvarupa does not
make that clear in his "biography." He tries to interpret
Srila Prabhupada's activities in a mundane way, making him seem
"human" and thereby leading all the readers to hell.
Satsvarupa is directly indicating above that Srila Prabhupada had not
yet advanced to the point of being transcendental to family
attachment. Try and see how offensive this is.
Sulocana prabhu:
Such truths should not have to be spoken so openly, but it is
necessary to make them clear in order to get his poisonous
book, the "Lilamrta," recovered and burned.
Sulocana prabhu: The
author, and those who worked with him on the "Lilamrta,"
have committed a horrendous offense to Srila Prabhupada. If
they had tried this same "interpreting the mind" trick with
some famous materialist who had died, they would be liable to get hit
with a devastating slander lawsuit from the materialists' heirs. So
just consider the gravity of what has happened-and is still
happening-to Srila Prabhupada's reputation from the distribution of
this slanderous book, the "Lilamrta."
Note: So here we
see what Sulocana feels about Puranjana and Nityananda's distribution
of lilamrta.
Sulocana prabhu:
The Mahabhagavata's disciples are never expected to take such quotes
and apparent situations and put together a book which tugs on the
heartstrings of all of its readers, while at the same time
tugging and ripping out the devotional creeper.
Sulocana prabhu:
The "Lilamrta" is one of the reasons why this
abominable mentality is even possible. Imitation thrones also assists
the delusion. Equal worship is another strategy. "Lilamrta"
is a contamination at nines so subtle, and so poisonous, that it works
on the subconscious without a careless devotee even being aware.
This book, and the books of Sridhar Maharaja will both produce results
on the same level. Both have the same poisonous effect on
one's soul.
Sulocana prabhu: As
many of these books as possible should be recovered and destroyed.
If not, the authors will be subject to sever punishment, both
in this lifetime, and for many future lifetimes to come. And
the innocent victims reading these books may have their material
existence extended as well.
Note: So Puranjana
and Nityananda's actions directly oppose Srila Prabhupada's mission to
deliver the fallen souls. By distributing lilamrta they are extending
the material existence of the poor souls who read this poisonous book.
