HKS Update - 18/8/98 - The Latest INSIDE News

 

IRG : 1. Russian disciples were planning to come to Abentheuer & celebrate in person Srila Prabhupada's Vyasa puja. They have accepted Monica's son as an incarnation of Srila Prabhupada. Some of them even had written Vyasa puja offerings prepared. Fortunately for ISKCON Abenthuer, they were unable to get visas, and the whole program got cancelled.

2. In the meantime local GBC, H.H. Niranjan Swami is having a difficult time in dealing with Kamalamala das. While Maharaj was talking on the phone from Moscow to Ravindra Swarup, Kamalamala Das & other devotees barged into the room, snatched the phone and disconnected the line. The atmosphere is very tense.

3. Meanwhile devotees in Europe are going around as if nothing has happened. Offerings, pictures on the altar, pujas are all continuing. The justification is that the GBC has not declared HK as fallen, rather he is only going through temporary illness with surety of recovery. And on a philosophical level everything that Srila Prabhupada said about a bona fide spiritual master in his books is being attributed to HK and it is very difficult they say to understand the mind of a pure devotee.
