    Hare bKrishna, it seems that more and more there is problems creeping into ISKCON, due to the wrong people being placed into management positions. The rot is starting to spread more and more, what is beinng done to rectify the situation?

    All I see is the GBC favouring the managment as they are their friend and must be the top most, regardless of the offenses being commited to aspiring devotees.

    ISKCON is the devotees, without them what is there, empty temples.

    I personnaly feel to bring anyone to a temple now is a mistake, as when they get abused and offended I feel embarassed, so what is the point in waking the sleeping souls to such an environment.

    This is a wild fire pretty soon every thing will be burned to ashes, if it is not contained!!!

    Srila Prabhupadas Krishna conscious ISKCON was perfect, todays ISKCON needs work badly.

    Managers that walk around thinking they own the temple and offending anyone and everyone at will, and no one is doing a thing about it, although there are complaints aplenty.
