In an article on CHAKRA “What
really happened in Vrindavan?” Mahaman dasa, temple president of
ISKCON Vrindavan, was quoted as saying, “There are many members of the
resident community as well as visiting devotees including former President Deena
Bandhu Prabhu, Daivisakti mataji, Giriraj Maharaj, Radha Govinda Maharaj and
others who support our view and action.”
“I happened to be in Vrindavan for a few days
during the middle of the controversy,” Giriraj Maharaja told CHAKRA.
“Practically I had nothing to do with it, and I am surprised Mahaman had
quoted my name as approving of his actions. I only learned of the incident from
the messages on COM after I left India.”
Giriraj Maharaj says he is very sorry for what
happened in Vrindavan.
“Of course I want the ladies to have proper darshan
of the Deities, and I would like the devotees to work together in the way Srila
Prabhupada wanted.”
He has given us permission to post his statements on
CHAKRA for clarification.
