Perhaps certain devotees are considered by some to be outside Srila Prabhupada ISKCON , although in reality they are just another branch of a Gaudia Vaisnava tree , or the Caitanya tree , they may ” look ” a little different or have a different emphasis on particular preaching styles , and have different authority structures, but providing they are strictly following Rupa Ragganathha and Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Nityananda prabhu and carrying out the sankirtana movement and providing they have respect for Srila Prabhupada and are well wishers of his society then they are friends and can be seen to be in union and in harmony with ISKCON , perhaps in future times working more closely together may occur , after all its a big world, and much to do .
Those within the ISKCON society should make sure they are not actually outside, in the sense that unless one knows Prabhupada and his intentions for ISKCON , like making sure everything is carried out to the highest standards , very much required when running an international society, and unless one properly understands the differing aspects of Tattva , for instance , Siksa Diksa tattva , or the origins of the jiva or the trancendental system of a disciplic succession , etc etc , one could find oneself adrift and floundering.
Srila Prabhupada represents and expects so many things, he represents a great tradition of spiritual teachers , especially Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami and Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur who were strict followers of the Goswamis and understood , as Prabhupada did , and how to infiltrate society with precision , using many aspects of the Vedas , including both the cor esoteric and peripheral aspects of Gaudia Vaisnavism , both of which are required for systematic progressive Krishna consciousness teachings and important for an effective influence on society at large .
Prabhupada comment.
On the train, Acyutānanda timidly put forward the question that had been on his mind: “Swamiji, what did you and Śrīdhara Mahārāja discuss?”
“Oh, many, many things,” Prabhupāda replied. “But if I were to tell you now, you would faint.” After a silence Prabhupāda added, “Still, I offered him to be president of our Society. I knew he would not accept. He is keeping things within him. Anyway, this is all beyond you. Do not have any ill feelings towards any of my Godbrothers. They are all great souls. There are just some differences on preaching and spreading. Even in your mind do not feel any ill will towards them .
