Re: My Video Reply to the Puri Incident Regarding Shrila Prabhupada
This is an every day occurrence. We don't like to see Srila Prabhupada's books on the floor or the street when they are sold, but I don't go around punching people because they throw a book with Srila Prabhupada's picture in the trash; or burn Prabhupada's books.
This is an every day occurrence, but do we hear in the newspaper no way. If we did hear of it then there would a war.
Followers of Nitai Chaitanya Chandra are meant to be humble, tolerant, and give respects to others.
Now if I offended my neighbour without a doubt he will retaliate even to the point of hurting me where it hurts most that is regarding my family, and yes I would be upset I may even break the law.
You can see where this is going.
Point one: I should never invoke another�s anger.
Point two: will I accept the repercussion.
The outcome:
�Servitors burnt effigy of Srila Prabhupad, the founder acharya of ISKCON. Shouting slogans against the organizers�
In a court of law who would be guilty: The one invoking or the one Provoked.
The one who is provoked would be taken into consideration.
Surly the vaisnava way is to appease and listen to reason.
We have to measure this subject in a material way as most are on that level.
Yes it was a sad day to read about my diksa Guru Om Visnupada Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada being treated this way.
�Servitors burnt effigy of Srila Prabhupad, the founder acharya of ISKCON. Shouting slogans against the organizers�
But if the ISKCON organizers had taken notice of last year's objections, then the Puri servitors would not have done this travesty of unjustly action against my Gurudev. The ISKCON organizers knowing full well the consequence of their action would put my Gurudev and themselves in jeopardy.
