Berkeley California Temple

BY: INDRASENA DAS

Aug 31, 2010 — BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA (SUN) — Hare Krsna. To any and all devotees connected with the Berkeley temple, as well as all ISKCON devotees worldwide:

If you are not outraged that a devotee has been sleeping on the altar; caught in the women's bathroom with his pants halfway down to his knees shaking his butt; urinating in the shower with the same clothes he wears on the altar; walking on the altar with his shoes on; cleaning his half-eaten plate in the shower leaving Tulsi leaves all over the floor…

If you are not outraged that another devotee is eating in Srimati Radharani's kitchen while preparing an offering; wearing his outside shoes in the pujari room; also washing his plate in the shower; throwing dirty toilet paper in the shower; spitting and blowing his nose in the shower; hanging out in the neighborhood streets late at nite hitting on women... in his devotional clothes; hitting on the women guests in the temple…

If you are not outraged that the temple president has 4 rooms in the temple and the matajis have to walk through the temple room to go to the shower…

If you are not outraged that a mataji is smoking weed in the asrama…

If you are not outraged that the management is constantly allowing Narayan Maharaj devotees and Rtviks to stay at the temple and preach their philosophy, and are themselves Rtviks…

If you are not outraged that a bhakta with no training is going in the Pujari room without showering and throwing Deity paraphernalia around in raging anger…

If you are not outraged that a Rtvik bhakta is sitting on the vyasasana and giving Gita class…

If you are not outraged that Srila Prabhupada's watch was stolen off his arm, his japa stolen from his hand, and there is constant theft in the temple, yet the door remains open all day with nobody to monitor it, the donation box has been stolen several times, etc., etc….

........................THEN WHAT IS THE USE IN YOUR CHANTING?
