Some Thoughts Regarding Prithu Dasa's Article on Narayana Maharaja
By Prapujaka Dasa

We have heard now for years this kind of criticism of Narayana Maharaja coming from different leaders and other members of our movement.

It seems that when there are some problems within an organization the tendency is to try to find an "enemy" outside of the movement and focus on "him”, and in this way try to unite the members against this "enemy".

But has this critisism of Narayana Maharaja created anything good? Has it united the members of ISKCON? If some unity has come from this then it is a unity based on hate and faultfinding, not a unity of love and trust.

So why don’t we instead try to use our energy for healing our ISKCON movement. As we all know there are very serious conflicts and problems within our movement that has to be solved now. Otherwise the disunion will probably increase and who knows then what the future of ISKCON will be.

Your servant
