Speaking the truth - Bhakti Vikas Maharaj

[@vrajakishoridasi1637]

Srila Prabhupada's pure love and affection for all living beings enabled his statements to be accepted and digested even though they were opposite to the prevailing ideas of the day. I appreciate Caitanya Caran prabhu's point of being careful so as to help people connect with the essence. We may present Srila Prabhupada's words verbatim without being aware or honest about our own level of being and our presentation may have the completely opposite effect.

It’s incumbent upon questioner to ask in a concise and non-repetitive way. This malady surfaces when the questioner is confused and is fond of verbosity. Hare Krishna! All glories to Srila Prabhupad!

Prabhupada could speak against sex, for war and other things, because he was an old man from India. People knew that he was a conservative man from another culture, and they could forgive or simply filter some of his attitude. But if you talk in the same way nowadays, it seems rather ridiculous.

I’ll speak the truth. Bhakti visas maharaj is one of the most misogynistic.fundamental it’s iskcon swamis. He has the mentality of a priest in the Spanish Inquisition and I think the movement is lucky he spends most of his time in rural India..

No way. Now feminism entered in Krishna consciousness. So sad. BVKS is absolutely right, read shastra. If you don't want to accept the philosophy then its OK, but don't change the philosophy.

[@AbhishakBhardwajcorporatefilms]

HH Bhakti Vikasa Swami adheres to the principle of speaking "as it is," which means presenting the teachings of Srila Prabhupada and previous acharyas without deviation. This is a fundamental principle of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Respect for a Pure Devotee: Labeling someone as "misogynistic" without understanding the context and the teachings they follow is offensive, especially when referring to a dedicated devotee like HH Bhakti Vikasa Swami. In ISKCON, members are encouraged to approach disagreements with respect and understanding. Kaliyuga Influence: Your comment attributes to lack of wisdom in the leadership that is running current Iskcon. However, it's essential to recognize that the challenges faced by any organization may not be solely due to the leaders but can also be influenced by the overall atmosphere of the age (Kaliyuga). The GBC and other members may have their reasons, but it's important to engage in constructive dialogue rather than making sweeping judgments. Misinterpretation of Scriptures: The reference to Arjuna being called "क्ल‍ैब्यं" (impotent) by Krishna highlights the strong language used in certain contexts within the scriptures. It's crucial to understand the cultural and historical context rather than applying modern interpretations. As per you logic Calling Vyas Muni or Lord Rama misogynistic will also be correct , but such thinking comes from a lack of understanding of the complex narratives within the scriptures and due to False Ego ..

@@AbhishakBhardwajcorporatefilms Thank you prabhu. Whatever, west's Pseudo familism already entered in ISKCON. Prabhupada 's mission in danger. Bhakti Vikasa Maharaja is speaking the truth, presenting prabhupada 's massage "as it is" thats why so many envious so called devotees are going anti on gurumaharaj

Hereby I would like to correct you, srila bhakti vikas maharaj is one of the most real, truthful, Prabhupad conscious and uncompromising of iskcon Swami's. Who represents the teachings of Prabhupad as it is! So yeah! He wont be satisfying anyone's personal sense gratification desires or something which contradicts prabhupad. And if so we have courage to speak the so-called truth, we should also have the same courage to accept the real one by being humble. Plus this movement is still unlucky that a prabhuapad disciple like him is not outshined yet and yeah! Those rural people and areas are the most fortunate ones to have his association and we, as in livin' in so called urban areas are bereft of greatest treasure. Alas! So before calling him a mysoginst, be enough courageous and humble to accept what prabhuapad has said AS IT IS! if in true sense you want to follow Prabhupad. Hare Kṛṣṇa. Srila Prabhupada ki jay!

If you are not following the philosophy as it is, your standards are so cheap! And Krsna is not cheap. A Sadhu cuts attachment and false ego through his Vani. HH Srila Bhakti Vikas Swami Maharaj is the most authentic personality in iskcon. Spreading Prabhupad's teachings As it is. So please study Prabhupada books deeply. Only then you can know his mood.
