Vedabase and Politix

Well, today I went ahead and bought the Vedabase, which is all of Prabhupada's books plus his letters and his room conversations all on CD--$150--regularly $365. And the books and lectures of Ron Hubbard cost, like $3,500--I love Ron, but not that much! I recommend http://KrishnaStore.com more bang for your buck--they have the original Prabhupada Gita, from before the editors started messing with it, and essentially wrote their own, in the name of "improving the meaning".

Right now there are a lot of factions ion the movement--and just like Prabhupada stayed aloof from the confucion in the Gaudiya Math after Bhaktisiddhanta passed away, just so and without imitating, I am holding myself aloof from all the politix and shenanigans and simply asociating with Srila Prabhupada and Srila Guru Maharaj (Sridhar Dev). I cannot in any good conscience belong with ISKCON---they have become a phony guru factory, turning out at least 78 bogus gurus in the past few years. If guru is that cheap, you and I can be guru, too, without a vote of approval--how would they like that? The "Light" can leave Prabhupada's organization, just like Protestants say the light has left the Catholic Church. Interesting though, if you actually study the Bible, it agrees a whole lot with the Catholic Church, and very litle with people who specialize
in Bible-basing things.
