and several other witnesses

The above is the last Will of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, his originally signed and approved paper

On JUNE 5th 1977 Srila Prabhupada called attorneys to his room to draw up a Codicil to his Will. His reasoning was stated in its first paragraph:

"I, A.C.Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, a sannyasi and Founder- Acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, Settlor of Bhaktivedanta Book Trust and disciple of Om Visnupada 108 Sri Srimad Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Maharaja Prabhupada, presently residing at Sri Krishna-Balarama Mandir in Vrindavana do hereby make this last will and codocil to give vent to my intention, and to clarify certain things which are to a certain extent a liitle vague in my previous Will dated 4^th June, 1977, as follows:

I had made a Will on 4^th June, 1977, and had made certain provisions therein. One of them being a provision of maintainance allowance to Sri M.M. De, Brindaban Chandra de, Miss Bhakti Lata De and Smt. Sulurmana Dey, who were born of me during my grhastha ashram, and Smt. Radharani De, who was my wife in the grhastha ashrama for their lives as per para.8 of the said Will. Since on careful consideration I feel that the said paragraph does not truly depict my intentions, I hereby direct that as regards Smt. Radharani De, she will get Rs. 1,000/- per month for her life out of interest to be earned from a fixed deposit of Rs. One Lakh Twenty Thousand to be made by ISKCON in any bank that the authorities of the said society think proper for a period of seven years in the name of ISKCON, which amount shall not be available to any of her heirs and after her death the said amount be appropiated by ISKCON in any way the authorities of ISKCON think proper looking to the objects of this society.

As regards Sri M.M. De, Sri Brindaban Chandra De, Smt. Sulurmana Dey and Miss Bhakti Lata De, the ISKCON will deposit Rs. One Lakh Twenty Thousand under 4 seperate Fixed Deposit receipts, each for Rs.. 1,20,000/- for seven years in a bank to earn interest at least Rs. 1,000/- a month under each receipt. Out of the said sum of Rs. 1,000/-, only Rs. 250/- will be paid to each of them from the interest of their Fixed Deposit receipts. The remaining interset of Rs. 750/- will be deposited again under new fixed Deposit receipts in their respective names for seven years. On the maturity of these Fixed Deposit receipts created from Rs. 750/- monthly interest for the first seven years, the said sums shall be invested by the above named persons in some Govt. Bonds, Fixed Deposit recepits or under any Govt. Deposit scheme or shall be used to purchase some immovable property so that the amount may remain safe and may not be dissipated. In case, however, the aboved named persons or any of them violate these conditions and use the said sum in purpose or puposes other than those described above, the ISKCON authorities will be free to stop the payment of the monthly maintainance of such person or persons from the original Fixed Deposits of Rs. 1,20,000/- and they shall instead give the amount of interest of Rs.. 1,000/- per month to Bhaktivedanta Swami Charity Trust. It is made clear that the heirs of the said persons will have no right to anything out of the said sums and that these sums are only for the personal use of the said persons of my previous life during their respective lifetimes only.

I have appointed some executors of my said Will. I now hereby add the name of Sri. Jayapataka Swami, my disciple, residing at Sri Mayapur Chandrodoya Mandir, Dist. Nadia, West Bengal, as an executor of my said Will along with the previous already named in the said Will dated 4^th June, 1977. I hereby further direct that my executors will be entitled to act together or individually to fulfill their obligations under my said Will.

I therefore hereby extend, modify and alter my said Will dated 4^th June, 1977, in the manner mentioned above. In all other respects the said Will continues to hold good and shall always hold good.

I hereby make this Will codocil this 5^th day of November, 1977, in my full conscience and with sound mind without any persuasion, force or compulsion from anybody.

A..C.Bhaktivedanta Swami

Witnesses: (signatures

If Srila Prabhupada had considered any of his DIRECT INSTRUCTIONS to be "to a certain extent a liitle vague" he would have certainly amended or "clarified" his directives and their "intentions".

After all - is it reasonable to imagine that Srila Prabhupada's concern for his former family - and what they would and would not recieve as a monthly stipend for life - would occupy a more prominent and pressing concern for HDG - than the future of the mission he had strained his whole life to create - the contiued availability of the books he rose each morning for nearly 10 years at 1:00 AM to produce and the faith and most importantly, the faith and morale of his 4734 initiated disciples spread across the globe?

Hardly.

So - what he ordered to be done - he placed in the Public Record and expected that though there might be some from OUTSIDE his mission who might attempt to slander or minimize his instructions, claiming them to be "misrepresentative" of "authentic' Krsna Consciousness - at least his loyal and faithful disciples - all tethered to him via their "OATH OF ALLEGIANCE" would need nothing more than those simple and sublime DIRECT ORDERS to guarantee their undying and perfect acceptance of those DIRECT ORDERS as their "heart and soul".

This is what "should have been done" and what "should be done" still.

Analysis of Srila Prabhupada's last Will

I. "The Governing Body Commission (GBC) will be the ultimate managing authority of the entire. International Society for Krishna Consciousness." Srila Prabhupada's Will Point 1

(N.B. Note that the Governing Body Commission (GBC) is NOT described as the ultimate authority but as the "ultimate managing authority". [That is a big difference.] The GBC is the ultimate for management, but the ultimate in ISKCON is Srila Prabhupada, himself and his instructions. These instructions cannot be changed even by the ultimate managing authority, the GBC. The GBC may only implement Srila Prabhupada's instructions and never change them.)

2. "Each temple will be an ISKCON property and will be managed by three executive directors." "The executive directors who have herein been designated are appointed for life. In the event of death or failure to act for any reason of any of the said directors, a successor director or directors may be appointed by the remaining directors, provided the new director is my initiated disciple following strictly all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my books, and provided that there are never less than three (3) or more than five (5) executive directors acting at one time." Srila Prabhupada's Will Points 2, 3, 6.

(N.B. All ISKCON property to have 3 to 5 initiated disciples of Srila Prabhupada's of good spiritual standing, as executive directors or GBC committee members. Note .here that Srila Prabhupada clearly says, that the executive directors or GBC committee members are to be [Srila Prabhupada's] initiated disciples, in good spiritual standing (ie: "my (Srila Prabhupada's) initiated disciple following strictly all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my [Srila Prabhupada's] books")

In order to ensure that an "my [Srila Prabhupada's] initiated disciple," who is "strictly following all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my [Srila Prabhupada's] books," will always be available to replace the "executive directors" or "GBC committee members responsible for the particular property".

3. "The system of management will continue as it is now and there is no need of any change." Srila Prabhupada's Will Point 2.

(N.B. Srila Prabhupada as the Founder-Acarya and ultimate authority of ISKCON could make changes in the system of management at any time during his physical presence with us. By saying "The system of management will continue as it is now and there is no need of any change." Srila Prabhupada is insisting that now and in future only his initiated disciples act as trustees for ISKCON properties, and there is no need of any change.)

Therefore taking into consideration all of the above. In accordance with the will of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Founder-Acarya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, we call upon the executors of Srila Prabhupada's will in cooperation with the GBC body of ISKCON to kindly furnish written proof that they are following each and every mandate given to them by Srila Prabhupada in the above documents, as a sign to all the assembled vaisnavas that we can have faith in them to lead Srila Prabhupada's movement. Specifically we call upon the executors of Srila Prabhupada's will and/or the GBC body to show compliance with sections 2 through 6 of Srila Prabhupada's will by:

1. Publishing the complete list of ISKCON properties [see below] and the list of names of the 3 to 5 "initiated disciple(s)" of Srila Prabhupada's who are the "executive directors" or "GBC committee members responsible for the particular property" and who are "strictly following all the rules and regulations of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness as detailed in my books" along with corresponding notarised recorded documents, proving that the GBC are complying with sections 2, 3,and 6.

In accordance with Srila Prabhupad's written will, that system of management was to continue on as it was, without any change. The system of management that Srila Prabhupad had worked so hard to put into place and used in managing all of ISKCON for years prior and at the time of those instructions and up to the time of his passing physically from this material world; that system has changed dramatically. This is a deviation from Srila Prabhupad's order. It is our duty to undo those changes and revive the original system of management that our beloved Founder-Acharya worked so hard to establish.

Direction Of Management For An Elected GBC

September 18, 2000 VNN6260
BY URDHVAGA DAS

USA, Sep 18 (VNN) — PETITION

To all Iskcon devotees world wide temple-presidents, Sannyasis

Dear maharajas, prabhus, matas and didis. Please accept my respectful obeisances. All Glories To Srila Prabhupada.

As an initiated disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and as a member of the International Society for Krishna consciousness, I herewith call upon all devotees world wide to reject Iskcons bogus GBC/Guru leadership and elect a new Governing Body Commission as outlined by Srila Prabhupada in his DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT FOR AN ELECTED GBC.

“Importanly, the GBC was to be elected from the body of temple presidents.”

He created the DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT, which was signed, witnessed and notarized. This document created the GBC, and gave the EXACT DIRECTION AS TO HOW THE GBC SHOULD ACT ...Importanly, the GBC was to be ELECTED FROM THE BODY OF TEMPLE PRESIDENTS. The Temple presidents were instructed to hold elections every three years, and either re-elect existing GBC members, or elect new ones from a ballot of candidates chosen from the body of Temple Presidents.

Srila Prabhupada also wrote several letters stating that the temple presidents were to be elected by vote by the congregations of the individual temples, and that the GBC would have practically no AUTHORITY over the individual temples.

The devotees who live in ISKCON temples should be educated so that they understand the full extent of their constitutional powers. By the constitution of the ISKCON temple corporations, the members have the legal right to elect a new leadership. This is a little-known fact, but it is a law.

They also have the right to vote to impeach that leadership if they lose their qualification as leaders. Legally, they have voted to accept the appointed leaders by failing to vote them out. That is, unless the members assert their right to vote it is assumed they wish to follow the appointed system.

Because the GBC assumed dictatorial powers NOT PROVIDED in the DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT, they were in a position to "cover up" crimes committed by each other, and to terrorize the temple presidents by threatening to "kick them out" for insubordination. Since they were not authorized to do either of the above, we can see that their pattern of abuse followed the typical pattern of abuse in "rogue states" and other dictatorships and oligarchies that ARE NOT ANSWERABLE TO THE PUBLIC. It would have been almost impossible for the molestations of the children in the Gurukulas to have taken place if Srila Prabhupada's DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT had been followed.

The only thing that can be said in our (congregational member's) favour is that the GBC VERY CAREFULLY HID THE TEXT OF THE DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT UNTIL THE 1990'S. (Over twenty years!) So that NO CONGREGATIONAL MEMBER OF ISKCON REALIZED TO WHAT DEGREE THEY WERE (AND SITLL ARE) BEING RIPPED OFF!

The devotees should assert their rights under the law, at least in the United States, and immediately hold elections to force the GBC to resign as managers and trustees of all ISKCON properties. This is the only chance to save Srila Prabhupada's legacy from total destruction. If after the prosecution and defense presentations in the court, where all the details of the GBCs' intransigence will become public knowledge, the jury finds the defendants culpable, and if they did not resign when the case first began, this arrogant attitude will influence the judge and jury to increase the penalty.

A similar thing happened in the case the Turley firm recently won against the Catholic Church. None of the church leaders who covered up the abuse resigned, and partly because of this insolence the damages were in the tens of millions of dollars for only two victims. The ISKCON case may ultimately have over 1,000 victims. The GBC resignations will save ISKCON millions of dollars and win support from the court and all right-thinking people.

Srila Prabhupada: "Yes. This was the system, that one must retire. Just like at the present moment, although people are asking the president that 'You retire, you resign,' he is not resigning, obstinate. Because he knows, 'This is the first and last chance. I am not going to be elected again. So stick to the post and take as much money as possible.' That's all." [Lecture, 12/17/73 LA]

The GBC will not resign, they will stick to their posts and take money from Srila Prabhupada as long as they possibly can. Now the consequences of their actions threaten to destroy the entire ISKCON society.

Therefore the only chance to protect Srila Prabhupada's reputation is a general rebellion by vote of the members of ISKCON against the GBC. They have frustrated Srila Prabhupada's orders by mismanagement, by changing his books, by preaching bogus philosophy, and in countless other ways. They have driven away thousands of Srila Prabhupada's disciples and they have failed to maintain his institution. Now they deserve to be impeached.

As explained by Dasanudas, the member ship of any nonprofit religious corporation has the legal right to remove its leaders because nonprofit corporations are institutions meant to serve the needs of the community.

Therefore, a constituent assembly consisting of the current members of ISKCON (past and present Srila Prabhupada's disciples) should now come forward and do the needful, even another lawsuit if necessary, for electing a new GBC body.

There should be an organized petition presented to the GBC stating our demands for attaining the goal of an elected GBC as Srila Prabhupada outlined in his Direction of Management for the GBC.

Please contact Harinamdas at harinam@ilhawaii.net. [email no longer valid] He will send you the PETITION FOR CARRYING OUT SRILA PRABHUPADA'S DIRECTION OF MANAGEMENT FOR AN ELECTED GBC (GOVERNING BOARD COMMISSION OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS)
