Srila Prabhupada was a servant of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura. If we want to serve Srila Prabhupada’s mission we have to understand the order that he is trying to carry out (in which we want to assist) by understanding the mood of the person who sent him on that mission (that we are trying to assist in). On the face of it Madhu’s Bandits are way off the track, and yet they claim to be the only one’s serving Srila Prabhupada. What could be further from the truth? They haven’t a clue what Srila Prabhupada and the guru parampara wants. They just use “serve Srila Prabhupada” as a trance word to hypnotize innocent devotees into thinking they are actually serving Prabhupada. What Madhu’s Bandits really mean when they say “serve Srila Prabhupada” is serve Madhu Bandit. Sound familiar? The following text by Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saravati Thakura tells us what we should really be doing instead of Mid Day Meal programs. (more…)

Srila Prabhupada’s Views on Mass Prasad Distribution
Thursday, April 9th, 2009The following article appeared on Sampradaya Sun.
BY: SUGRIVA DASA
Mar 17, USA (SUN) — The following is a text from the Pamho forum dated August 29, 2007. It is a discussion between Jasomatinandana Prabhu and Madana Mohana dasa in reference to Mother Teresa. The section regarding mass food distribution is relevant as it has recently been discussed on this forum. Jaso is actually criticizing ISKCON’s current mid-day meal programs, what to speak of the other’s programs. [Editor: like Akshaya Patra]
Insider view
Wednesday, April 8th, 2009Editor: We recently got the following interesting comment on a previous article from somone calling himself “Insider” who claims to have access to insider information. How true that is we don’t know but it makes interesting reading:
[Insider] You wrote:
Shankabrit was just too expensive to deal with and had a rotten reputation as a blood hound who would feast even on Srila Prabhupada’s body ( Shankabrit ’s recently acquired Mercedes Benz car raised too many uncomfortable questions about the dealings between the two of them. With the recession and bank dues to be paid, he did not have that kind of cash anyway) [sic]
The inside word is that Shankabrit demanded and got at least 1-2 crores for managing tweedle dee and tweedle dum err Amiyavilas Svami and Anantapadmanabha Dasa who got nothing — thinking they were “doing it for Prabhupada.” (more…)

The Bandit’s Guru Business – Part 1 : Is Madhu Pandit das your Acharya or godbrother
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009“ Therefore, in all sphere of devotional service, freedom is the main pivot. Without freedom there is no execution of devotional service. Freedom surrendered to the lord does not mean that the devotee becomes dependent in every respect . To surrender unto the Lord through the transparent medium of the spiritual master is to attain complete freedom of life.”
Srila Prabhupada,Srimad Bhagavatam 1.6.37

While devotees celebrate Jayapataka Maharaj’s visit, Bandit family has a panic/envy attack
Friday, April 3rd, 2009Madhu Bandit blog correspondent
Madhu Bandit family suffered from a severe panic/envy attack on the 29th March. As the devotees gathered at the Shubaram Kalyan mantap, just two kilometers from the Hare Krishna Hill, to celebrate the remarkable recovery and the visit of H H Jayapataka Maharaj to Bangalore, the Bandit family were found shaking with mortal fear and burning with envy.
As the reports of the number of devotees gathering at the venue reached the Bandit family, there was disbelief, fear and envy. Their persistent propaganda that ISKCON was shrinking, fading or terminally sick was being rubbished right under their nose, so to speak. How could they say this about ISKCON anymore? This actually left them with a bloody nose to deal with. (more…)

Judge postpones judgment (again)
Tuesday, March 31st, 2009The judge has petitioned the Supreme Court and gotten permission to postpone judgment to April 17, 2009. Considering that the last two times he asked for a 1 month extension this much shorter extension suggests that he will actually pass judgment on this date.

1. Beware of what you buy on the Hill!
A devotee I know related this story:
A relative of his, recently purchased a deity from the Hill for about Rs 50,000. He had considered another one, costing about Rs 5 lakhs, and rejected it as too costly.
A few days later, he performed a ceremony to install the deity in his house. During the function, he got a call from the salesman on the Hill. He offered to sell the expensive deity for Rs 4 lakhs. The buyer rejected his offer. (more…)

Dear Editor
In your response to Mr Row ( Grind your teeth on this) you have admitted that “That ISKCON had a problem with the Gurus is too well known”. However you make it sound as if all those Guru problems are all solved. (more…)
Mr. Row (and your pals), if you have any teeth left, grind them on this
Thursday, March 19th, 2009[Editor’s note: Here is another interesting view on the comments made by ‘Mr Row’. Several new dimensions of analysis are presented here]
by Madhu bandit blog correspondent.
Let us apply Mr. Row’s logic and see where it can take us:
“ISKCON is the name to be used by any society that follows Srila Prabhupada as its Acharya and follows his instructions. Just because it is not under the jurisdiction of the mumbai temple, doesnt mean it cannot be called ‘ISKCON’” – Mr. Row. (more…)
“All we need is a monkey on the stick….”
Tuesday, March 17th, 2009by Madhu bandit blog correspondent.
After the shocking and spine chilling disclosures about the hiring of thugs and criminals and feeding them meat and liquor within the temple premises, now the Madhu Pandit parivar has to deal with the egg on their face due to a major fiasco that has yet again confirmed the criminalization of the temple and showcases the ruthless tyrannical style of operation of Madhu Pandit.
It has long been known that Madhu Pandit is hobnobbing with criminals, mafia and anti social elements. But the recent incidents provide the starkest evidence of the nexus between Madhu Pandit and criminals and how various criminal streaks have deeply embedded themselves into his personality. (more…)
Is Hare Krsna Hill a terrorist organization?
Sunday, March 15th, 2009By staff correspondent.
In this age of Kali, where hypocrisy, politics, and opportunism play a prime role, how is it possible for any temple to provide unlimited, sumptuous prasadam to hundreds of devotees everyday without any questions or demand for money? When the prasadam menu has a minimum 6 varieties including breakfast, lunch and dinner it is more amazing.
I would like to focus on three temples that think serving devotees is the service to the Lord: (more…)

We received a comment some time back from "Row". Mr. Row, here is our reply to your comment. This is regarding the attempted fraud in Hyderabad. But Mr Row raises many other issues too.
Mr Row's comments are indented and indicated by a vertical line and our response is in the normal mode.]
I think you need to decide whether you support Iskcon Bangalore being a part of Iskcon or not. One one hand you are fighting a court case that it belongs to ‘Iskcon’ and must be surrendered under the management of Iskcon Mumbai, and here you make an accusation that it is trying to get land in the name of ISKCON when it actually has nothing to do with it. You seem to be making random accusations with anything thats to do with the bangalore temple.

ISKCON to Take Legal Action against SHKMS
Thursday, March 12th, 2009This article was published on Sampradaya Sun and is relation to a previous article published here.
Mar 05, HYDERABAD, INDIA (EXPRESS NEWS SVC.) — Allotment of five acres of land estimated to be worth Rs 200 crore at Banjara Hills Road No. 12 by the Endowments Department to a trust named Sri Hare Krishna Movement Society (SHKMS) is receiving strong resistance from the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON).

[GBC] Answer to Madhu Pandit Prabhu

The Executive Committee (EC) of the GBC has received your recent peace proposal for which we offer you our thanks.

The EC has since gone through your peace proposal and we have the following points to make: (more…)
Radio Hare Krsna Hill:“ask us whatever you want, we will answer you whatever we want.”
Sunday, March 8th, 2009Radio Hare Krsna Hill: “ask us whatever you want, we will answer you whatever we want.”
Q: Is it true that there is freedom of speech on Hare Krsna Hill the same as there is in Srila Prabhupada’s ISKCON?
A: In principle, yes. In Srila Prabhupada’s ISKCON, you can stand in front of the GBC in Mayapura, and yell, “Down with GBC!”, and you will not be punished. And in same way, you can stand in front of Madhu Pandit Dasa on Hare Krsna Hill and shout, “Down with GBC!”, and you will not be punished. (more…)
Is Madhu Pandit Dasa a gunda among the Sadhus?
Saturday, March 7th, 2009Once a gentleman said to Srila Prabhupada that “Mahatma Gandhi was a sadhu among the politicians” to which Srila Prabhupada responded “No he was a politician among the sadhus.”
Now the question we have to ask: is Madhu Pandit Dasa a gunda among the sadhus? Read the following text and decide for yourself. (more…)

Flip Flop to Stay on Top: is Madhu abandoning the Rtviks?
Friday, March 6th, 2009Exclusively on the Madhu Bandit blog!
By Madhu Bandit blog correspondent
We have heard from our own sources on both sides (who are praying for anonymity in view of the recent Stalinist crackdown on freedom and the promulgation of a military emergency on Hare Krsna Hill), that Madhu Pandit and his parivar is completely shaken and jolted by the deep cracks among the ranks of the temple devotees and FOLK members. Their response to the devastating and truthful exposes found on www.MadhuBandit.info blog and www.ISKCON-BDA.org website are ever so predictable, shallow, dumb and frankly speaking boring. Their response is formulaic sloganeering boiling down to the following — blame it all on two people [editor: those two people must be very empowered to be able to do so much], name calling (think “crow” “pig” “dog” “wicked” like something in grade school), massive witch hunting and trying to instill terror among his fast eroding flock.

Madhu’s Mafia attempts to spread its Tentacles using ISKCON’s good name
Thursday, March 5th, 2009The following text and article was sent to us from Eenadu (Andhra Pradesh Telugu News paper). Apparently Madhu Pandit is at it again, trying to leverage all the hard work that the ISKCON devotees in Andra Pradesh have done to his own advantage by using the ISKCON name as a cover for his own family business. Is it any wonder that he is inspiring great animosity towards himself. We wonder how they will retaliate against this offense, how much they can tolerate, and to what lengths they might go in seeking satisfaction from Madhu Pandit? (more…)
