ISKCON BDA Responds to Several Texts
BY: ISKCON BANGALORE DEVOTEE ASSOCIATION
Jan 24, BANGALORE, INDIA (SUN) Instead of writing a separate text responding to each different posting, we will briefly respond as appropriate in one text.
To Dayalu Nitai Sundar dasa, sorry we didn't know you went back to collecting a paycheck from Madhu Pandit dasa. We can imagine you had to do a lot of fast talking to get out of that predicament. He really gets angry, doesn't he? But have no fear for your job, your name has been removed and replaced by Sriman Pandava Sakha dasa in Singapore, who wrote us the following text:
"Prabhu/mataji I was also part of ISKCON Bangalore from October 30th 1992 - January 21st 1997 & suffered heavily at the cruel hands of Madhu Pandit so I also want to stand against this fraudster. Please include my name in the list of devotees & let me know if any service can be done. I always want the temple to come back to ISKCON from these irresponsible people.
Hare Krishna
Your servant Pandava Sakha Das"
One devotee was telling us a few days ago that many devotees actually do not support Madhu Pandit dasa, but are forced to. We asked "how is that? Why don't they just leave him?" He responded that one of Madhu Pandit's tactics is to get young brahmacaris married and especially after they had kids, they were stuck with Madhu Pandit for economic reasons. Why? They had been out of the work force for 10+ years and would have a hard time getting a job, and now they were weighed down with a wife and kids and no one to employ them except you know who. Pretty sad actually, but such is life. Sometimes we have to make tough decisions and make the wrong one for financial reasons (think Drona and Bhishmadeva). Anyway, spiritual life is a multi-lifetime process and you get another chance next life to make that tough decision and get it right.
And for those of you who are requesting (screaming) that we reveal our identities, you must be crazy. We have nothing to gain by doing so, but a lot to lose. Considering that Madhu Pandit dasa had Varada Krsna dasa beaten up just for visiting the temple, and while Varada Krsna dasa was in the hospital, Madhu Pandit dasa hired two prostitutes to file false charges against him, saying that Varada Krsna dasa was "eve teasing" (harassing women) as an excuse for the beating. If that is what Madhu Pandit dasa did to Varada Krsna dasa just for visiting the temple, what do you think he would do now?
Madhu Pandit Dasa is a desperate man in deep trouble. There is now practically no crime that Madhu Pandit Dasa is incapable of, do you think that we want a bunch of paid thugs at our door who will kill us and dump our bodies in the river? (Sulocana dasa act II) As the wit said, "I was born at night, but not last night." We are not so stupid as to reveal who we are to Madhu Pandit dasa, who has a history of beating people he doesn't like just for visiting the temple. As Pandava Sakha said above "[I] suffered heavily at the cruel hands of Madhu Pandit." So we do not want to fall into his cruel hands either. So stop asking us who we are, we have already identified ourselves, as much as we feel it is physically safe for us to do.
The purpose of http://www.iskcon-bda.org is not to reveal who we are, but to reveal what Madhu Pandit Dasa actually is. We have said all that we had to say and have provided tons of documentation to prove it. At a time and place of our choosing we will reveal who we are, most likely after Madhu Pandit dasa and Chanchalapathi dasa (and others) are safely in jail for their crimes. Fraud (what to speak of forgery, perjury and theft), as Ramlinga Raju, x-CEO of Satyam found out, is a serious crime. Raju is now in jail, and the BBC says he could get life in prison.
Just as Hitler could not act alone, neither can Madhu Pandit dasa, and just as Hitler's accomplices swung from the gibbets, Madhu Pandit's close henchmen (Chanchalapathi, Jai Chaitanya, Stoka Krishna, Chitranga Chaitanya, Amitasana, Rajiv Lochan, Sridham Krishna, Satya Gaura Chandra, Vasudev Keshav, and Suvyakta Narasimha) will also go to jail with him, unless they make some important decisions now to distance themselves from him and cooperate while they still can, because soon it will be too late for them.
And for the likes of Maha Purusha dasa, it is beneath our dignity to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
