31 years ago today, I saw Srila Prabhupada in person for the first time. At that time, on December 26, 1969, ISKCON was a winning team, and in 1977 ISKCON was more of a winning team than any of us could have imagined in 1969! ISKCON had the best coach in the world, Srila Prabhupada, and thousands of winning players, namely Srila Prabhupada’s sincere, devoted, hard working disciples. This made certain members of the Gaudiya Matha in India very envious.
Have you ever heard of the managers of a winning team firing or alienating 90% of the players and replacing the coach with a committee of unqualified, inexperienced, pretender coaches? What can be said of such managers? Are they not incredibly stupid, useless, crazy, and more trouble than they are worth? How is history going to record the misdeeds of such a group of idiots?
Somehow or other certain envious members of the Gaudiya Matha got to these hapless ISKCON managers, a.k.a. “the GBC,” back in 1977/78, and talked them into doing the stupidest thing in the history of vaisnavism, and they’re never going to live it down!
