Umapati Swami Tries to Rewrite his History

By Navadvipchandra Das | Published 12/19/2006

UmapatiIn Umapati Swami's recent reply we hear the same song that all of Kirtanananda's henchmen have sung for years. Each one tries to pretend he was an ostrich with his head in the sand, not seeing a thing that went on around him. The fact is, these henchmen weren't just common you and me devotees, they were Kirtanananda's right hand men, his enforcers, and his philosophical propounders. They were the one's who actually propped Kirtanananda up and made all devotees accept him as equal to God. As Rocan prabhu pointed out in a previous article, it was the "saintly philosophers" who really gave Kirtanananda the power to control the masses.

At present, practically every former Kirtanananda leader has oozed back into a position of power in ISKCON, completely sweeping their past under the carpet. It wouldn't be too far off to say Kirtanananda is actually running ISKCON by remote control even today. His deviant philosophies and practices have silently seeped into every corner of ISKCON through his faithful "disciples", now all ISKCON GBC and Gurus.

It is a fact that Kirtanananda was a homosexual, and he attempted to install homosexual leadership throughout ISKCON. He did this primarily by awarding sannyasa (a position that was highly respected throughout the movement) to his homosexual disciples and godbrothers. The chances were if you were one of Bhaktipada's close men, or trusted leaders, you were a homosexual. He knew the more sannyasi's you had, the more control you had over ISKCON. So he gave sannyasa to all of them, and then used them to wrestle control of ISKCON.

Bhavananda did a similar thing on the other side of the world in Mayapur. He also installed homosexuals and pedophiles in all positions of authority within his zone, to make it easier for them to abuse and exploit in a very systematic manner. Both Bhavananda and Kirtanananda plotted and executed a plan of systematic exploitation, abuse and molestation in ISKCON.

Umapati Swami wants us to forget his past, and just accept that he was the right hand man of Kirtanananda all by some unfortunate accident. He had no idea what Kirtanananda was up to or what kind of person he was. In his letter he states:

 

"I did not see any evidence of sexual misconduct on the part of Kirtanananda while I lived at New Vrindaban. The stories of Kirtanananda's sexual misconduct came out long after I left New Vrindaban."

and

"I have never in my life been part of any homosexual-freedom movement. I don't know where you got that one from."

Let me remind the readers that prior to joining ISKCON, Umapati shared an apartment with two other notorious homosexuals, Keith (later to be known as Kirtanananda) and Howard (later to be known as Hayagriva). At that time he was known as Wally, and anyone with a little knowledge of the history knows what Keith, Howard and Wally were into at those times. Umapati tries to pretend he had no idea what type of person Kirtanananda was, but the truth is, he grew up with Keith and he lived with Keith. It wasn't random chance that they lived together either. Birds of a feather flock together, as they say. If anyone knew what type of a deviant Kirtanananda was it was Umapati. All these years of intimate friendship and association between Wally, Keith and Howard, but he can't figure out a thing? He just didn't know what type of a deviant person Kirtanananda was, at least that's what Umapati wants us to believe.

I think everyone can see on these first two points it is clear Umapati Swami is lying, and anyone who studies it objectively (without the guru goggles on) will likely agree. In his letter he goes on to say:

 

"When he started deviating philosophically, I opposed him in front of everyone there."

Umapati claims he opposed Kirtanananda's deviations from the very "start", presenting as though he was the stalwart defender of Prabhupada's pure teachings in New Vrindavan. But I would have to say Umapati must have really misunderstood when those deviations "started", because the history shows he was a happy participator. Not only was he wearing the Franscican robes, as he admits in his letter, but he and Hayagriva (his old homosexual buddy Howard) where the master poets who rewrote all the songs and prayers into English poetry. He didn't just participate, he led the way. Every single song from the Vaishnava song book was thrown out and rewritten into English poetry (including the mahamantra), primarily by Umapati and Hayagriva. That doesn't sound like he "opposed Kirtanananda's deviations from the very start". So again, we find Umapati Swami is lying and trying to rewrite the history just like all the Kirtanananda henchmen do. Next, Umapati Swami tries to escape the charge that he gave sannyasa to notorious murderer Tirtha Das. He states:

 

"It was Kirtanananda who awarded sannyasa to Tirtha, although I performed the ceremony."

Oh, I see. After Tirtha Das was convicted in a court of law for murdering devotees, Umapati Swami went and awarded him sannyasa in the prison - but only as a ritvik representative of Kirtanananda. Now that clears up everything, why would I have ever thought anything of such a small trivial thing?

For the record, Kirtanananda was expelled from ISKCON in March of 1987, and Umapati Swami performed the sannyasa initiation ceremony for murderer Tirtha Das in August of 1987. So even after everyone in the world knew Kirtanananda was a criminal engaged in murder, child molestation and all sorts of crimes, still Umapati didn't see anything. He obviously thought the ISKCON GBC were rascals, and he obviously thought the court that convicted Tirtha Das were fools, and so he felt it was just fine and dandy to act as Kirtanananda's ritvik to personally give sannyasa to murderer Tirtha Das in prison. Again, it's an obvious case of Umapati trying to rewrite his past. After all, now he is a guru who is supposed to be as good as God. He has to keep the image up or business won't be good.

Umapati goes on to say:

 

"After I left New Vrindaban, I openly repudiated Kirtanananda on more than one occasion."

Everyone repudiated Kirtanananda once they saw he wasn't the winning party. For years you propped him up, and then when you saw the grass was greener on the other side of the fence you hopped over and repudiated him. Why did you do this repudiation "after you left New Vrindavan"? For so many years you went along with his deviations, and then once you got a better place to stay, you left and repudiated him. Is that supposed to impress all the children who go molested under your nose? Or were you simultaneously repudiating him while you wrote poetry in his glorification? "All glories to you, Bhaktipada, Lord Krishna's servant dear, You worship at His feet and spread his message far and near." Yes, that was one of your all time classic poetic compositions. Some how the history you try to present just doesn't tally with your past actions. In his letter, Umapati then switches to a strawman argument, smashing a statement we never made:

 

"I never accepted Kirtanananda as God. I defy you to show me any statement I ever made accepting him as such."

Nowhere did we say Umapati Swami accepted Kirtanananda as God, so there is no point in him denying it. What we did say was that he worshipped Kirtanananda as "equal to God". As everyone knows, in our Gaudiya philosophy the guru is respected as good as God. This was even more true during the times of the zonal acharyas, those same times that Umapati was propping up Kirtanananda as the purest devotee of Lord Krishna on the planet. When "saintly philosophers" such as Umapati and Radhanatha Swami were pushing everyone to surrender to the lotus feet of Kirtanananda, what could the innocent devotees do? It was the philosophers who really gave homosexual pedophile Kirtanananda the appearance of saintliness. And after growing up with him, and living with him for years, Umapati can't pretend he didn't know anything about him. Umapati continues his letter:

 

"Concerning the article about JonBenet, Srila Prabhupada wanted devotees to write Krishna-conscious comments on the news, and I intend to write more."

I will let the readers go through the article and decide for themselves if it is a source of Krishna consciousness. I also find it revealing that you had not updated your website since October 6th, but the day after I sent my letter pointing out your mundane articles, immediately you post an article on "The Mercy of Srimati Radharani". An obvious attempt to make it appear as though your website had been focusing on high Gaudiya philosophy all along. Two and a half months without an update, and suddenly the next day you are covering your tracks with the topmost philosophical discussions in Gaudiya vaishnavism. Quite a jump from JonBenet Ramsey to the Mercy of Radharani.

 

"As far as my being a jet-setter with a credit card, well what is wrong with that? A sannyasi is supposed to travel, isn't he?"

How sannyasis are supposed to live is perhaps the subject of another article. But I find it further revealing that your idea and example of a sannyasi is someone who wears pants and shirts, has a full head of hair, works a regular 9 to 5 job like Mr. Smith, and lives outside the view of devotees or ISKCON temples. What you do with your personal life is of course your right, but this artificial show will only fool the ignorant.

Someone may complain why we are asking such difficult questions to you. They feel it would be better if we all sit together in a room with balloons and pretend everything is really swell and dandy. But you are not just the average Joe, you were and still are a leader of ISKCON. When disaster occurs under your nose, you can't just run over to the other side of the globe and start a new mess over there pretending nothing ever happened. Once the New Vrindavan mess became too much, you ran away to China to start creating new messes there. And once these new messes get big enough, you will again run away to some other place pretending none of it ever happened, and that you didn't know anything at all. We have seen these patterns in ISKCON regularly. Pose yourself as a Guru, as Lord Krishna's pure representative, create a mess, and then run pretending you never saw anything. You have a lot of experience with this yourself, as we can see from the complaints of Chinese devotees. Already most of Tamal Krishna Goswami's Chinese disciples have rejected him and have taken to the Ritvik system, all under the nose of your spiritual guidance. And now rumors from Narayana Maharaja's people say all of your disciples in Hong Kong have rejected you and taken reinitiation from Narayana Maharaja this month. Can we really blame them? When you put on the Guru show, while trying to hide and cover up your past, it is only natural that the cover will eventually be blown.

In closing let me put one more revealing question to you:

We find from your history that you worshipped Kirtanananda as Krishna's pure representative for many years, and you encouraged all others under you to do the same. While he was engaged in child molestation, murder and all sorts of criminal acts, you worshipped him as equal to Krishna. How is it that someone who was so foolish as to worship a homosexual pedophile is somehow qualified to act as a guru and deliver spiritual knowledge to their "disciples"? What spiritual knowledge can you deliver to them? You couldn't even see the difference between a child molestor and a guru. How are you qualified to remove the spiritual ignorance of your disciples? This is just a case of blind leading the blind, and it is only a matter of time before your disciples find out your true history and reject you. Better for you to honestly turn your disciples over to Srila Prabhupada voluntarily, or they will end up leaving for Narayana Maharaj or some other Gaudiya Matha guru as they are starting to do already.

You conclude your letter with the following:

 

"I do find it disgusting, though, that people like you delight in harping on Kirtanananda's problems while conveniently ignoring all the help he gave to many devotees.

I find it really amazing, and I mean speechlessly amazing, how after everything you know about Kirtanananda, you still want to glorify him and "all the help he gave to many devotees". He is a criminal who was never properly punished for his crimes. He has murdered devotees, molested countless devotee children, and destroyed hundreds of devotee families. He is single handedly responsible for destroying the devotional lives of thousands and thousands of devotees. Many gurukula children later committed suicide after the abuses they suffered under him. He has personally destroyed the good name of ISKCON throughout the world. There is absolutely nothing good about this demon. I know this is something you will never accept, you being his old buddy from when he was Keith. Keith, Wally and Howard could never go against each other. Just close your eyes, or look the other way so you don't see anything. You're still doing it after all these years, only now you're posing as a guru and spiritual leader while you do it.

 

"I hope this answers your questions. Now please get the hell out of my life and stay out."

This is the usual response from the GBC Guru mess makers. After destroying the lives of countless people, they always turn to the victims and say "why are you bothering me, can't you see I'm trying to enjoy my loot in peace? Get the hell out of my life and stay out." But you should learn that the longer you try to avoid your past and rewrite history, the more this will come back to haunt you. The victims are real, and those of you who enjoyed as leaders under Kirtanananda were directly responsible for these crimes.


Umapati Does China -

- by BIF - Bhaktivedanta Investigation Force

Where did he vanish to, Umapati (swami? gurudeva?), that great spin doctor for the 'Champions of Krsna's Army' (CHAKRA)?  After blazing onto the scene; his sunnyasa cloth flying in the wind, and his danda....well, let's not go there.  Our interest was piqued when ISKCON's propaganda drum missed several beats in the wake of this GBC endorsed gurus's departure from the cyber circular. We sought him high and we sought him low...and that's where we found him....LOW,.... down in the gutter.

Umapati's statement:

"Touching of the private parts and fondling. The statements mentions Maharaja acted inappropriately with 'several devotees'. Maharaja himself stated it was 7 persons, although he didn't state who they were."

[[ Comment: well, that could mean anything: wanking, masturbating, blow-jobs, fu*king ]]

Ah yes, he's been in China; his divine hands wok-frying his Chinese disciples...."While serving in his preaching field, Umapati Swami improperly interacted with several male devotees past the boundaries of what is proper".  So are we to understand that these 'improprieties' suddenly appeared, or was he nuzzling noodles long before it was discovered he had "slipped past the bounderies of what is proper?" May we suggest that his visits to the subterranean have been uninterrupted since long before his induction into the guru business- (http://jaganat.wordpress.com/2008/02/02/get-the-hell-out-of-my-life/). He knew full well there would be no serious repercussions in the event of disclosure?  And true to understanding of his GBC godbrothers, they gave Umapati an all expenses paid holiday to India, where sexual perversions on Indian boys by visiting homosexuals and pedophiles have not yet come under the spotlight, although complaints have been many, and hush money payouts, even more.

When promoting itself as the 'eccessalistical face of Krisna', the GBC does so as an elitist, hierarchical SOCIETY, elected and voted in by themselves, and them alone. When a wart appears on the 'face', the "GBC Party" avoids accountability by implying that it is simply the impropriety of some distant related franchise for which they have no responsibility other than its rectification. And in support of this all too regular 'chameleon' phenomena, the exposed perverts abet the GBC by publicly accepting the role of a franchisee- "I take full responsibility for my actions I alone am to blame". In return for 'taking responsibility' and in spite of ongoing betrayal of trust; the raping of children; the sexual compromise of disciples; the abuse of fiduciary obligation; the public disgrace, and glaring dereliction of the GBC to see beyond its own criminality, the felons are treated to a 'resort' rectification-"Umapati Swami will reside for a time in a holy place, like Mayapur". Whereas rank-and-file doormats must slave insistently, sometimes for years, before earning a short stop in Mayapur, a GBC appointed "deva" needs only juggle the genitalia of his disciples to secure a bachelor pad at the best address in town.

So now we will look at the 'Agreement' between Umapati and ISKCON's illustrious GBC Ex. Com.:

Umapati Swami and the GBC Executive Committee Agreement

The many years of Umapati Swami's service to Srila Prabhupada is recognized and appreciated. While serving in his preaching field. Umapati Swami improperly interacted with several male devotees past the boundaries of what is proper. In order to assist in the rectification of Umapati Swami. assure the sanctity of the institution and provide shelter for US (Umapati Swami), we have agreed to the following actions:

>Our reports will show, Umapati lied and convoluted the facts when complaints forced an investigation by the GBC ex. com. We got to hand it to the GBC (no pun intended), even when one of their rubber stamped gurus is a confirmed fraud and God knows what else, they continue to address him as swami and 'provide shelter' for his penchants.

· Effective immediately Umapati Swami will reside for a time in a holy place, likely Mayapur. He will behave in a low-key manner as tirtha sannyasi. For example he will not conduct major ceremonies in the temple such as his Vyasa Puja. He will remain out of his preaching field for two years, starting October 2007.

    During this time he will continue as a sannyasi under the mentorship of a monitor committee composed of three senior devotees mutually agreed upon by US and the EC. If the committee cannot be mutually agreed upon, the EC will appoint one member, US another member and the two members the third. All members must be senior devotees in good standing.

>"...senior devotees in good standing?" How can we tell what is which and which is who, when a guru, elected and endorsed by the GBC, from amongst its most senior and long standing members (again, no pun intended), is dogging his male disciples for years? Surely, one would have to be a brainless donkey to persist in the judgment of this woebegone, entrenched dictatorship.

  The monitor committee is agreed to consist of Kavicandra Swami, Narasimha Swami, and Janmastami Prabhu (Mayapur). Considering that the incidents in question happened several years ago, his advanced age, his repentant mood and that since that time Umapati Swami has been living a proper sannyasi life, he will continue as a sannyasi. For the time being, he will be under the mentorship of a monitor committee composed of three senior devotees mutually agreed upon by US and the EC.

   >It is naive to believe that the 'incidents' happened in the past and then ceased once discovered.   In fact it went on for years until his embarrassed disciples could take it no more. However, we are sure that his Chinese recipe book is full of undisclosed erotica, and spring rolls are still available even in the coldest winters and whenever his 'improprieties' dictate. Not all of his dim sims were forthcoming (as revealed in Umapati's statement), nor exposed themselves to the Ex Com., as they did to Umapati's warm hands.

· The committee shall regularly check in with US to assure his welfare and compliance with the terms herein. At the end of this period the committee will report back to the EC. If US has been non-compliant with standard spiritual practices or the agreed terms herein the committee may recommend further action.

   >Yeah...and the next time he gets caught with his hands on the nuts, he's headed for Oxford Street in Sydney, Australia, for the annual Mardi Gras. All expenses paid. That'll teach the grabber.

· Umapati Swami agrees not to initiate new disciples and will encourage others to initiate in his preaching field.

    >What a relief. No more hemorrhoids for those unsuspecting....well......tie your kaupins tighter and hope for the best.

· Those disciples of Umapati Swami who have lost their faith in him and wish to take shelter elsewhere in ISKCON have his full blessings to do so.

     >.....those who still have faith may continue to receive his full blown blessings at his bachelor pad in Mayapur. While those who have lost faith can get blessed and blown at a shelter elsewhere in ISKCON.....the goshala or even the gurukula.

· Those disciples who wish continue taking guidance from Umapati Swami may do so.

> ....and he shall steer thee with his hands firmly placed on thy rudder.

· After the two year probation period, US will spend more time traveling outside of his preaching field than his previous schedule.

>....this should help him expand someone else's field of activity instead of simply fondling his own.

Now we will hear Umapati's statement:

   Statement by Umapati Swami

   I would like to offer my apologies to all those whom I have disappointed by my inappopriate behavior some years back, and I would especially like to apologize to those who were victimized by this behavior.

>We wish to point out here that this statement was made sometime in or around '98.  However, and since that time, Umapati has caused a great deal of concern by fronting up at the Hong Kong temple and having disciples from mainland China visiting him. At the end of this statement we will post some letters (dated: 2010) by devotees in that zone voicing concerns to the GBC mouthpiece in Hong Kong...Chandresakar das.

    I was living in an isolated situation. I was in a country where Krsna Consciousness is illegal, and I would often go days without association. I tried to encourage some of the men with displays of physical affection, but Maya entered, and things slipped past the boundaries of what is proper.

> Brahmacaris BEWARE. We have warning from a bona fide ISKCON guru: DO NOT wrestle in a country where KC is illegal, or your thing can slip past the boundaries of what is proper. Now there's a thought for the mental munis.

   I take full responsibility for my actions I alone am to blame.

>...you blamed Maya Devi, just one sentence ago, rascal.

   As a result of my inappropriate behavior some disciples may become disappointed and wish to take shelter elsewhere. If they wish, they have my full blessings to take shelter of senior Vaishnavas within ISKCON. If current disciples have faith in me and wish to continue taking guidance from me I shall humbly serve.

 >...and it isn't simply lip service, to be sure.

   It is time for me to recharge my spiritual batteries. I plan to work on my own purification by living for some time in a tirtha and associating with my Godbrothers.

>...Umapati ji, something tells us that your handling fetish would be better curbed in the association of your Godsisters. Anyway, good luck with that.

   Umapati Swami
   Signed and agreed to by GBC Executive Committee
