Hi,

Could someone please tell me what Swami B.V. Tripurari's position is in regards to ISKCON, and what is ISKCON's position in regards to Swami B.V. Tripurari?

 

Much appreciated.

Hari Bol Bhaktashab,

 

I think it best to ask Tripurari Maharaja himself what his position is regarding Iskcon. Back in the mid-eighties he was told that if he wished to maintain his relationship with Sridhara Maharaja he would have to leave Iskcon. He did so, although he remains a faithful disciple of Srila Prabhupada.

 

Regarding what Iskcon's position is with regards to him I really couldn't say. As you know Tripurari Maharaja was a member of Iskcon for many years and has many friends and associates who remain within the institution. There may be a formal 'Iskcon' position or not, I am not aware of it is there is one. I am associated with one of his god brothers who is a very well respected Iskcon member and he very much appreciates the efforts of Tripurari Maharaja to spread Krsna consciousness. He is reading from the new edition of Bhagavad-Gita and he has had very warm and enthusiastic things to say about it.

 

Sorry if this doesn't help or answer your questions in a satisfactory manner, but that is what I know about the questions asked.

 

Your servant,

Audarya lila dasa
