In search of that Absolute Truth which is only available in Sri Gaudiya Math - Part 3

All glories to Śrī Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga

Dear, devotees all around the world

Daṇḍavat praṇāmas

Surely it is not our aim to start some arguments with each and every one. All the facts and figures are taken from original sources already reserved long ago by the society (ISKCON) in internet or in books and papers, and our only aim is to make innocent devotees aware about all these facts, and finally it is the decision of each and every one whom to believe. We all our Śrī Bhakti Siddhānta Vāṇī Sevā team are just trying our best under the guidance of Paramahaṁsa Ācārya Śrī Śrīla Shyam Dāsa Bābājī Mahārāja to establish those facts and figures, which—as per the absolute perspective of Śrīla Bābājī Mahārāja—is something extremely relevant and important in these days. For so long this issue between ISKCON and Gauḍīya Maṭh is going on, and till now many are in confusion about the actual truth. It is only again by the appearance of one very powerful śuddha Guru- Vaiṣṇava like Śrīla Shyam Dāsa Bābājī Mahārāja that some actual light can be brought on to these sensitive topics. Śrīla Bābājī Mahārāja has surely not taken any bribe to take any side in all these matters. His only aim and concern is to represent the pure teachings of Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura and Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Ṭhākura Prabhupāda and all their eternal followers as they are. Śrīla Bābājī Mahārāja’s pain and also the pain of all the actual Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavas is that through such misinformation and misrepresentation about our Gauḍīya Guru-varga the true teachings of Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura and Śrīla Prabhupāda and all his eternal associates are not been made accessible. By painting black those devotees who are eternal parṣadas of Gauḍīya Goṣṭhī Patiḥ Śrī Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Ṭhākura Prabhupāda all the new generations are deprived of knowing about such great jewels and their pure Gauḍīya siddhānta-vicāra.

The following lines written by Swami B.G. Narasingha we should remember more often than ever:

“In the everyday hustle and bustle of preaching in the west and performing our many duties and services to Kṛṣṇa and our guru-varga, we often forget, or have never heard of the previous generations of devotees who sacrificed and endured against all odds to spread the glory of the mission of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, and who achieved the ultimate grace of the Supreme Lord to become one of His eternal associates. Had they not done their duty and performed their service in the mission of Mahāprabhu, we ourselves would not be where we are today, basking in the rays of the effulgent sun of Lord Caitanya’s saṅkīrtana movement. Let their memory and their achievements never be forgotten. All glories to Lord Caitanya’s devotees past, present and future!”

It is only when we have no envy or party color for each other that we can hear patiently about the Absolute Truth, without wasting any time arguing with each other. We can simply open our hearts and invite the truth as it is when we are standing on a neutral platform. But as soon we are covered by society consciousness rather than sāmpradāyika consciousness we are bound to make mistake. As soon we start to compromise, we are bound to accept something bad and lose something good. That’s why only those pure devotees who are standing on a neutral platform and having no personal interest can speak about that Absolute Truth. If we have no faith in the pure Hari-kathā of those eternal parṣadas, then millions of arguments and ideas will pop up in our material minds and will create only more and more confusion. That’s why we honestly request each and every one who is following us on social media to be patient and not hastily start to argue, but rather take a look at all our representations of those facts and figures regarding those sensitive topics and please take time to go through the divine and pure Hari-kathā of Śrīla Shyam Dāsa Bābājī Mahārāja which is totally in line with Paramahaṁsācārya Śrī Śrīla Bhakti Siddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Ṭhākura Prabhupāda. Lastly, we want to remind you all what Śrīla Saccidananda Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura told, "O my dear brothers and sisters and all human beings of the world, kindly give up your envy for each other and simply surrender to God. Take shelter and pray and He will manifest His truth in your heart."

Thanks a lot

Truly yours in the service of Śrī Śrī Guru and Gauranga
