nope.

best surfing in Sri Lanka....

Were you out ripping off a grower that day? Or, is that in your back yard?

Is Surfing Good for the Soul?

get that fruit out of your face so we can see how stoned you are!

it is a spiritual current of spiritual thought. the formal diksha monopoly that goes around today is cheating and lies. cheap formal diksha is not what Saraswata Gaudiya is about. it is about the spiritual thought and spiritual conception. cheating gurus and their cheap formal diksha has nothing to do with Saraswata Gaudiya. cheap formal diksha is the cheating process of cheaters. Saraswata Gaudiya is not about cheap formal diksha and these cheaters.

Alaska is better. They have earthquake almost 13 every day. then you can predict earthquake and rest assured it is correct.

looks like you need to go to Himalayas and find Vyasadev and ask him about that. Vysasdev is still there in Himalayas. ask Vyasdev why he never put that in Mahabharat. then, report back here what Vyasdev says. thank-you

oh, yeah sure. find "Bhagavat Parampara" anywhere in traditional lines. he took sannyasa from a picture. If we follow the "tradition" then Bhaktivinode Thakur is not even in the Saraswata parampara. The disciplic succession that Saraswati Thakur gave follows the siksha line. He didn't even recognize the diksha guru of Bhaktivindode. real traditional..................... only in a pipe dream. fine any Bhagavat parampara in the "tradition". you are obviously in denial about "tradition". the Saraswata tradition started with Saraswati Thakur. he broke from tradition with his "Bhagavat parampara". But, I am not disagreeing. I fully agree with the Bhagavat parampara. Tradition is for jati-goswamis and professional gurus of other sorts. you need to do your homework on the Saraswata "tradition". It is based on leaving "tradition" for something more dynamic. vedic? karma-yoga is Vedic. Jnana-yoga is Vedic. Vedic? That is another myth.

man don't smoke dope in the Dhama. you can do without for a while. when I went to India I was a stict devotee. so, I didn't do anything stupid while I was there. since then I have smoked my share, but not in the last few years. being in the work force and smoking dope is not compatible anymore. I don't know how you can smoke weed and still keep a decent job.

yuck..... vinegar on cooked food? Make your own with some cayenne or jalapenos and lemon juice. Don't use that nasty hot souce with vinegar in it.

we, the thousands of ritvik proponents on planet Earth.

the problem with your theory is that Srila Prabhupada already had a system in place for initiating discples that had been going on for several years in ISKCON. There was no need for Srila Prabhupada to change that in his last days. The system was already working for several years. Srila Prabhupada appointed the ritviks when the GBC deputed Satsvarupa das Goswami to inquite from Srila Prabhupada how initiations would go on after his passing. So, when the GBC inquired how initiations would go on after the passing of Srila Prabhupada the answer was "ritvik". The time line for how long it finally took devotees to sort out the mess and the confusions that these 11 created with the zonal guru system is not the question. Krishnakant desai was not some founder of the ritvik movement. There were many devotees who accepted the ritvik system long before Krishnakant desai was anybody. Senior disciples like Hansadutta, Yashodanandan and hundreds of disciples of Srila Prabhupada accept the ritvik system. So, you have a very shallow understanding of the history of ISKCON and the ritvik system. Obviously, you are not informed enough to make the wise decision and have been duped by unauthorized gurus who are acting without sanction.

so true......

fine and dandy... but to be a formally initiated disciple of Srila Prabhupada is not up to your whim. Srila Prabhupada put a system in place for those who wanted formal initiation from Srila Prabhupada. It was called the "ritvik system". Nobody is twisting your arm to accept it. But, Srila Prabhupada authorized it whether you like it or not. Frankly, we could care less about your little opinion. We are concerned with what Srila Prabhupada gave, not what your personal whims are.

you obviously don't know anything about the fundamental principles of the Saraswata parampara. your "traditionalism" is just a pipe dream and a fantasy. there is nothing traditional about the Saraswata parampara. if you think there is, then you are obviously living in a bubble. tradition................ the tradition........... a buzzword that means nothing.....

Hey, I didn't establish the ritvik system, Srila Prabhupada did. I know you think the whole idea is stupid. But, if it was stupid I don't think Srila Prabhupada would have bothered with it. You can manufacture your own process if you like. But, I think Srila Prabhupada's system is better than yours.

it's cool bro................... I'm just yanking your chain to get you to bark. I am actually a good humored guy.

Srila Prabhupada set up the ritvik system. How can you claim to be his disciple if you haven't followed his ritvik system? If anybody can be a disciple without formal initiation then why did he create a ritvik system? Srila Prabhupada established an authorized system for becoming his formally initiatiated disciple. If you don't accept that system then you don't accept Srila Prabhupada. Disciples had to meet certain standards and requirements. If you don't meet the requirements then you aren't a disciple.

when Kennedy said we had to land a man on the Moon all the scientists said "impossible". I am just a little curious how a politician can get accomplished what the scientists were saying was impossible? Bankrupting the Russians in the cold war was also on the American agenda and they did many things to achieve that goal.

ok Beavis, then start another topic about the war and you can harp all you like. this topic is about astronomy and modern theories. why do you have to drag the war into this topic look at the topic Beavis........ it's not about war....

my opinion doesn't matter. we go by what the acharyas have given. the Saraswata parampara is a siksha-guru parampara........ do your own homework and don't come on the forum making outragious claims based upon your own misconceptions and accusing others falsely because you don't know what you are talking about.

ok Mr. Big Mouth. Please post a quote from one ritvik that has ever said that. I know you won't because you can't because you are in fact a liar that is spreading false propaganda because you have an agenda. get a life loser.......... If you can't think of anything better to do than tell lies on the internet, then maybe you should get another hobby?
