ISKCON: It's Role, Idealogies, And World-view.

[Guest]

Do you or do you not accept my challenge?

Since you have edited your post, I am adding the following:

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->If you can prove I am wrong, I will admit defeat on this point.

But why should I quit this thread?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

You don't just admit defeat. You admit that you don't have adequete knowledge. That is not a problem. I too don't have adequte knowledge, but I refrain from talking about things I dont' understand.

You said with great surety that:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->The Great Acharya Sri Ananda Tirtha never made such a statement.
I have never seen Madhavas say this either.

So either back up your statements with proof or quit lying.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

You are plain wrong, ignorant and above all, are not qualified in any way to participate in this thread.

You should quit because you bring no knowledge to the discussion; You make statements that are false & malicious.

Here, we seek knowledge and discussion. You seem to have an agenda.
It was evident when you said this, among many many things:

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Don't join ISKCON.

<b>ISKCON is anti-hindu.

If you like Gaudiya Vaishnavism (like me) , then you can practice its teachings without joining ISKCON.</b>

Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was a very great Saint who promoted Nama Sankirtana.
Read about him here:

He was traditional Vaidika Brahmana who wanted to revive the Vedic traditions.

ISKCON has hijacked Chaitanya's philosophy and is trying to create a new religion.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Are you really a practitioner of Gaudiya Vaishnavism?
If so, you should have realised the first lesson that worship of devotees is worship of the Lord.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->I am scared now. Will the Yamadutas kick my rear end in Naraka Loka.

What a joke!<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If you really are a follower of Lord Chaitanya like you asserted before, you won't take it as a joke.

I can only conclude that you are a mole who doesn't belong to threads like this where scriptures are discussed.

However, if you withdraw your statements and apologise for them, you are most welcome.

There are many things that should not be discussed publically.
The treatment of Sankara by Madhwa surely belongs to this category. Although I did make that statement that Sankara is deemed a Demon in Madhava Vaishnava Tradition, I do not intend to qualify that statement with proofs - it is dangerous.

Therefore I refrain from posting scriptural matters which if read by un-initiated, can cause only turmoil.
