local householders and GBC of the offender's presence.

To fulfill the previous acarya's desire for a united
worldwide preaching organization to expand Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mission,
Srila Prabhupada founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as
a distinct branch of the Brahma Madhva Gaudiya Vaisnava sampradaya. Therefore
he is the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON.
a. Srila
Prabhupada is the foundational siksa guru for all ISKCON devotees because he
has realized and presented the teachings of the previous acaryas of the Brahma
Madhva Gaudiya sampradaya appropriately for the modern age.
b. Srila
Prabhupada's instructions are the essential teachings for every ISKCON devotee.
c. Srila
Prabhupada's books are the embodiment of his teachings and should be accepted
as the standard by all future generations of ISKCON.
d. Srila
Prabhupada should be worshiped daily by every ISKCON member.
e. Every
ISKCON spiritual master is responsible to guide his disciples to follow Srila
Prabhupada's instructions.
f. As
Founder-Acarya, Srila Prabhupada gave directions for management, principles of
co-operation, and other practical guidelines which form the basis and
inspiration for ISKCON's policies.
g. Srila
Prabhupada established the Governing Body Commission to execute his will,
following the order of the previous acaryas.
37. That the GBC
Body offers its vote of thanks to His Grace Krsna Ksetra Dasa, His Holiness
Bhanu Swami and all the members of the Deity Worship Committee for their
sincere service in successfully publishing the Deity Worship book.
38. That Bhakti
Tirtha Swami is reinstated as a member in good standing of the GBC and his
suspension of 1991 is removed.
39. That Radha
Govinda Das:
a. Is
approved to take sannyasa.
b. Must
not initiate until approved.
c. Must
plan his preaching programs in consultation with the subcommittee of Gopal
Krishna Goswami, Lokanath Swami and Bhurijana Dasa.
40. That
Adridharana Prabhu, Calcutta Temple President, shall be the recognized
authority for directing preaching and fundraising activities in Calcutta and
Howrah. All such programs need to receive his prior approval and devotees
should co-operate with his directions.
ISKCON Calcutta has a duty to help support ISKCON Mayapur
and spread the glories of Mayapur. After the Calcutta project is completed, in
about five years, Calcutta has a duty to help build Mayapur.
ISKCON Mayapur should no longer send its membership makers
to the Calcutta/Howrah area. In exchange ISKCON Mayapur may choose whichever of
the following options they prefer:
a) 2 1/2 lakh rupees per month, adjusted annually for
inflation; or
b) 30% of funds collected from the enrollment of new life
members, but not less than two lakh rupees or more than five lakh.
ISKCON Mayapur can retain their entire membership team.
Bombay has agreed to host at least one team as a trial, and if it works will
add one more team. The rest can enroll members in the remainder of Bengal.
Adridharana will put three months maintenance on fixed
deposit in case he should fall behind in his Mayapur payments. Payment will be
due on the 1st of each month. Bhakti Charu Swami has agreed to also stand
behind the payments as a guarantor. HH Sridhara Swami is appointed as monitor,
and he has authority to access these funds should ISKCON Calcutta fall behind
in its payments. If Calcutta falls more than two months behind, the entire
agreement is null and void.
Bus Tours from Calcutta will be under Calcutta's control.
The caliber and quality will be co-ordinated with the monitor to improve them
and collect complaints.
Donations given in Mayapur by Calcutta residents visiting
are Mayapur's. They are not to be credited against Calcutta's guarantee of
maintenance.
Adridharana agrees to hold seminars to help train Mayapur
devotees for capital campaigns and fund raising. He will also help Mayapur set
up tours from other parts of Bengal.
If the agreement is working, Adridharana will consider:
a. helping Pancaratna organize a monthly membership program
for Mayapur in Calcutta;
b. membership makers from Mayapur working in Calcutta on
some percentage basis, under the Calcutta temple president's direction;
c. the possibility of a one month membership marathon.
The decision to proceed with any or all of the above is
solely at the discretion of Adridharana and Sridhar Maharaj, the monitor.
Sridhar Maharaj will act as the arbitrator of this agreement
in the event of conflicts. It will be reviewed again by a GBC sub-committee in
Mayapur in 1995.
Sridhar Maharaj will be the monitor for negotiating an
improvement in the bus tours. He will select the devotee who can access the
fixed deposit to cover Mayapur's monthly maintenance should Adridharana fall
behind.
41. That the
1994-95 Annual Fee Assessment List is accepted. The budget for the year is
approved as follows:

$240,000 - Samadhi Completion /Fund
$160,000 - Global Centennial Fund

Fund will be credited against their Samadhi Assessment (current and future).

provide materials and guidelines for the campaign including guidelines for
integrating the Global Centennial Campaign with local and regional Centennial
campaigns. In return the local ISKCON Centers will pledge a mutually agreed
percentage of general funds (not ear-marked for Samadhi or Temple) raised to
the Global Centennial Fund.
48. That an
advisory committee is established to set guidelines for Centennial activities
in the area of Uniting Prabhupada's Family. The Committee shall be Mukunda
Goswami, Sivaram Swami, Lokanath Swami, Madhudvisa Dasa, Raghubir Dasa, and

More members may be added to the Committee with the
permission of the GBC Executive Committee.
49. Whereas
it is the obligation of Srila Prabhupada's disciples and grand-disciples to
bring their godbrothers and godsisters back into the practice of Krishna
Consciousness; into the house which Srila Prabhupada built for the whole world
to live in, as a service to His Divine Grace;
Whereas several successful attempts, especially in the form
of devotee reunions, have already brought back a number of Prabhupada's
disciples and grand disciples, who revived their Prabhupada consciousness and
their spiritual practices;
Whereas having as many as possible of his disciples and
grand disciples around his lotus feet in 1996 would be the most pleasurable
Centennial offering to His Divine Grace;
It is resolved that the members of the GBC reaffirm their
commitment to try to recover devotees who have neglected their spiritual
practices as affirmed in the following resolution passed in 1977 in the
presence of Srila Prabhupada.
"Each GBC man is responsible to try to recover the not
