When the disciple is loyal to Prabhupada but the guru is not


Watch what happens when Dharma das, a disciple of Bir Krsishna Gosvami asks his guru how we can accept FDG if Srila Prabhupada directly states no woman can be diksa guru in SB 4  canto.


Listen to creative "arguments" given by BKG...



Please watch from 38:28






This is what happens when the disciple wants to follow Srila Prabhupada but the guru does not.

Chronicle of GBC Blunders: All 63 in a Single Article

By Nadiya Sasidhara Das Snippet:     The GBC has shown over the years that their decisions are unfortunately very often not based on Srila Prabhupada’s books and teachings and not based on Guru, Sadhu and Sastra (see list given below this article).     Recently the GBC passed a resolution permitting female diksha gurus (FDG’s) in ISKCON on 15th October 2019. It came as a great surprise and anguish to many. Surprise, because they did not properly discuss the issue, especially with the ISKCON India leaders who had requested for a dialogue on FDG with the GBC before any resolution on it. India contains 80% – 90% of the total number of ISKCON devotees in the world, so by not involving Indian leaders in this decision, the GBC effectively excluded 80 – 90% of ISKCON from this process. And anguish, as Srila Prabhupada’s vision of ISKCON establishing Varnasrama, although largely ignored all these years by the GBC seemed to now have been decidedly abandoned by it...

(Hari Bhakti Vilasa 11.708) Commentary by Sanatana Gosvami on this verse: nādhikuryāt strībhyo ‘dhikāra ṁ na dadyād-ityartha ḥ |  nādhikuryāt here means that one  should  not  give  authority  to  women.

2019 Nov 25 Bureau FDG resolution

Whereas, the GBC has passed a resolution at their mid-term meeting at Tirupati 2019, authorizing female diksha gurus. However, the Bureau had passed a resolution during its February 2019  meeting at Pune, calling on the GBC not to pass any resolution on female diksha gurus, before entering into a dialogue with the Bureau, but regretfully GBC did not do so, and the Bureau feels distressed and disheartened by the disregard shown by the GBC towards the Bureau, Whereas, we all know that “books are the basis”, and in our foundational book, Srimad Bhagavatam, 4.12.32, Prabhupada clearly stated that “being a woman… Suniti could not be Dhruva’s diksha guru”.  The Bureau finds that the said resolution instituting female diksha gurus is in our understanding a contravention of this specific instruction of Srila Prabhupada,    Whereas, the resolution passed by the GBC on female  diksha gurus is having a divisive effect on the worldwide communities of devotees, ...
