R,

Those 11 people were never appointed guru.They had mangerial skills.One who follows is guru.Anyone and evryone can pick it up.Acarya is self effulgent.

 

He also wrote in a purport to the CC that demons have entered the Krishna consciousness movement and their association should be avoided.

 

Go for the honey R, it tastes better than the alternative.

First I want to thank the several individuals who were kind enough to respond to my first posting. Thank you. But I see that a lot of very odd speech has entered my first posting and I feel that what's below got lost in all the vulgar...except for a nice comment from Mitreya. Thanks for that. But now on to my other thoughts....taken from my first thread that I am no longer going to enter.

 

I would bet that there is more to my misgivings than I realize. The truth can be hidden beneath many layers, requiring a great effort to reach. I may never understand it.

 

I just can't help wondering about somethings. I remember being told how SP would be singing in class and go into deep spiritual trance. The implication that he was deeply intimate with Krishna. Or how he would just meet somebody in an elevator and presto, with uncanny spiritual vision and inspiration, give him first and second initiation on the spot. This was told to me by a very senior devotee. And there are other examples to illustrate the point that SP was spiritually charged by the grace of Lord Krishna. There are books written on this subject. He was on par with the best of the best. This proved that SP was faultless. In SP own words, "A God-conscious person having a bad character, it is incompatible. It is not possible. You cannot find fault with him. That is God conscious."

 

"You cannot find fault with him"....I just can't figure out why such an elevated God-conscious saint would select and empower the kind of men he picked to give the greatest power to. I mean, spiritual power is so great. It is nothing to mess around with. And yet I don't like what I see. Especially when you look back at the history of these individuals after the SP era. One man was caught having an affair with a young girl. One man was having sex with little boys in the holiest place in India. One man was taking LSD and had his head chopped off. Even though SP said that a KC person is without fault, one "guru" was stripped for a time of his powers due to his bad deeds. One was caught with automatic weapons in the truck of his car and later thrown out. I mean, the list goes on and on.

 

I just wonder...and I wonder respectively, without ill intent...how is it that SP...so close to Lord Krishna...could have selected such a bunch of rotten apples? And these men he empowered inflicted to much pain and suffering on others.

 

Am I wrong to see fault here? And if there is fault, what about the quote I just mentioned from SP?

 

How is one to view this? R I will post another response this Sunday. Thank you.
