To have great wealth,when it is used in the service of the Lord,like building temples,feed the poor,help sadhus,is no problem.Thus,Srila Prabhupada requests married devotees to dedicate 50% of their salary for spiritual purposes,live simply,and when the children are grown up,to dedicate fully into spiritual activities,going to places of pilgrimage,spread krsna-consciousness,till time of death.Those who wish can also take sannyasa,ie living with bare necessities,and relying on Krsna for maintainance.

As the Maha Mantra is predicted to be the yuga dharma,it is natural that there should be a society to oversee the spreading of such religion,in an enthusiastic and pure way.The Founder Acarya,Srila Prabhupada,created the GBC for this noble mission:many failed to follow his instructions and so,are now in their own mental speculations.Once the Acarya's instructions are put into practice ,all problems will be solved. Jesus Christ's Name was stolen by the Roman Empire,who spread a false christianity around the world,oppsite to Jesus's pure teachings of love of all living entities,no intoxication,no illicit sex and no gambling.It was replaced by such deviations as "Jesus changed water into wine!", ate fish and meat, encouraged marriage and business.... All those opposed to such deviating teachings were massacred,tortured,burnt alive,crucified and all countries of the world have been invaded with such demonic mentality just to turn the world into a demonic place,together with Islam,another sect of violent kind. The Essenes,following fenuine christianity] still exist today,but I'm not allowed to give you the link[strange conditions of membership,links only after 15 posts!],as well as islamveg,so you can find out yourself!

I am always doing that!Any devotee should give the Maha Mantra to everyone he meets!As well as some prasadam:there's no need of big organization for this. I suppose the soldiers in this hellish place will get some benefit from Partha Sarathi's preaching,as it's most difficult...After all,Jagai/Madhai were also murderers! But I'd rather see him there without US Army uniform,with big machine gun,meant for killing,in his hands....and ignoring the Iraqi people:Krishna is for everyone! My dream: Ratha Yatra in the streets of Baghdad,with distribution of sweets and Maha Mantra,as well as Bhagavad Gitas in Arabic!The devotees should be from different nations and different religions,and dressed as devotees... I'm sure Lord Jagganath will protect them....and miracles will happen after this! I hate to see my godbrother ,armed with machineguns! Agreed!

Thanks for welcome! By chance, I noticed that my post on harekrsna.com has been duplicated-with additional foto of warplane[cost:$1,000,000,000!] on Indiadivine forum,which is a great active forum.As Dandavats.com filters any posts that it thinks is anti-Iskcon, I have no choice but to go toother forums in order toget the views of other vaisnavas:this is real istagohosthi-free speech! Partha-Sarathi das seems to have been brainwashed into believing that the war in Iraq is a holy war,and so he can be compared to the suicide bombers of Islam,or one of the Inquisitors of history,blessed by the Pope before departure to palestine!No sane person engages himself in such an army,and the very wealthy,responsible for this war,makes sure that their offsprings never go there,but are on permanent vacations on tropical islands or stay in fortress-like mansions. The main reason why i am trying to convince him to get out of this hell is that devotees,I believe,should save the lost innocent first,and there are millions of them around the world,while these soldiers in Iraq have voluntarily chosen to go to this hellish place for material profit,after having been brainwashed by the TV and other medias. Regarding muslims in India, I don't think Gandhi did the best thing to allow such faith in India,in the name of non-violence,as such faith means cow killing,hate of Vedic culture[no idol worship] ,desacration of most elevated pilgrimage places,including Mathura,by their presence at the birthplace of Lord Krsna,and an agenda to destroy all Vedic culture. The profecy is that Christian and islamic asuras [as well as hindus who cooperate with them!]will anihilate themselves with more and more atrocious wars,as such is the law of karma for cow killers and Vedic culture assassins.After such purge, vaisnavism will reign as sole religion for 9,500 yrs of Golden Age,with beautiful temples,surrounded with self-sufficient farms with plenty of happy cows! The 3rd world war is predicted to start between India and Pakistan.

The issue in Afghanistan was the strategically valuable location for a pipeline to connect the immense oil and gas resources of the Caspian Basin to the richest markets. Whoever built the pipeline would control the Basin, and in the 1990s the contest to build it was spirited. American interests in the region were promoted by an organization called the Foreign Oil Companies Group. Among its most active members were Henry Kissinger, a former secretary of state but now an advisor to the Unocal Corp.; Alexander Haig, another former secretary of state but now a lobbyist for Turkmenistan; and Richard Cheney, a former secretary of defense, but now the CEO of the Halliburton Corp. Late in 1996, however, the Bridas Corp. of Argentina finally signed contracts with the Taliban and with Gen. Dostum of the Northern Alliance to build the pipeline. There are also the juicy fields of opium of this region,which brings billions of dollars to the concerned parties. So,by going to the right websites,one can be informed about the truth regarding the motives behind wars in general[the TV or newspapers wont report any such details]:it's only a question of huge amount of money that the exploitation of the planet's underground offers,in certain parts of the world:for such wealth,any means is good for grabbing the place.It's no more a question of democracy:it's rather demonscrazy!
