Official Ramakanta vs. IRM discussion thread

Dear Ramakanta Prabhu,
PAMHO. AGTSP!
I had observed:

"I notice you do not claim the term ‘physical presence’ is fuzzy when used
by Srila Prabhupada."

To which you say:

> From the context it is clear what Srila Prabhupada meant. But it is still
> fuzzy what you mean by "physical presence" and "physically meet".

You need to explain why my use of the term physical presence is fuzzy but
not Srila Prabhupada's use of the term. If physical presence is not
important, as Srila Prabhupada states, then why on earth do you contradict
him and claim it is vital to delivering disciples? To challenge the
teachings of the current link like this is completely demoniac. And if a
guru is not physically present how can you physically meet him?

You are so confused you even now challenge the very point made in your OWN
evidence (letter to JPS) in which Srila Prabhupada states he remains in the
material universe to deliver disciples:

> Why does Srila Prabhupada have to come back to this material universe, if
> he remains within this material universe in the form of books etc. that
> are sufficient to guide all ISKCON members?
Ramakanta das

It is sheer stupidity to put forward evidence in a debate to support YOUR
challenge to point c), and then proceed to challenge that very evidence as
you do above.

What do you understand Srila Prabhupada means by the term ‘physical
presence’ in each and every quote I gave that you claim is not fuzzy?

Best wishes
