Hindsight

Subsequent to yesterdays post titled: "White Supremists, Male Superiority, Slavery," this blogger felt the concluding comment clear. Any misogynist with a heart for nonviolence to others and dedication to Prabhupada, would awaken.

Afterward recalling the chronic stinking-thinking most misogynists preserve, realizing they would never accept responsibility for their actions, only turn it back on the accuser.

Last nights final comment: "Misogynists, you proudly admit to bigotry, enjoy intimidating others - keeping them beneath you, and are not following His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, regardless how many times you deceptively insist you are. However, you're doing a terrific job at ruining his reputation on the net."

Direct, honest, and to the point, isn't it? Then memory of their dealings returned. They do not permit themselves to feel bad about anything at all, for a moment at all. Then they would have to change something in their cushy life where they are the central point. More likely a misogynist would interpret and react to it in this way:

"WE are not spreading anything bad over the net, YOU are, and if you'd just shut-up, then they could become devotees. After that, then we could preach to them these higher truths, that what you call abuse, are not abuses, but in line with Prabhupada. Just stop your preaching on this matter and let us handle it."

An inability to accept they can be in the wrong, a trait which runs high amongst misogynists. Definitely their beliefs are not in line with Srila Prabhupada.

Referring to difficulties this age of Kali we're all currently living, Srila Prabhupada also pointed to what we have operating in our favor. He gives the example of Mother Bhumi in the form of a cow. Each of her legs represents a certain quality. In Kali yuga three of her legs are broken. However she is still able to stand on the one leg she has left. That leg is the quality of truthfulness. The last leg of religiosity is truthfulness. We have this in our favor.

Freewill is present too; no one can force another to be honest. Repeatedly misogynists select dishonesty, based on their belief they're preaching what is right and what is good, therefore it nullifies a need for honestly. That's bogus.

If what they're preaching is so right and so good, they wouldn't have to conceal it from the nondevotee, or the new devotee, or gentle Hindu's. Krishna Consciousness is beautiful, compassionate, kind. What is there to hide? Only those wishing to misuse this love of God are desirous to hide, for example, polygamy, belittlement, abuse. These are not coming from God, they are coming from misogynists.

What is most unfortunate be some ISKCON authorities are too, misogynists. Don't blindly follow, as some might comment: "But Maharaja said this or that." Always check, what did Prabhupada say on that subject matter?

Likewise, don't blindly accept my perspectives either. I have naught interest in that, instead interest is in following Prabhupada's instructions to preach to all. Should anything I've said on my blog hit home for you, double check it with Prabhupada as well.

The fear ISKCON authorities (and some non-Iskcon Authorities) hold toward putting misogynists back into their place has become mind-boggling. Nearly each and every male authority of any sort, are friends with, or friendly toward, misogynists. Be it sentimentality making it so they don't engage in correcting misogynists, or agreement, how can there be hope for reform under these circumstances.

Many authorities are not misogynists, countless devotees are not misogynists, but most everyone, with significant inner strength, is yet scared to take them on. What result do they expect to come of this?

Like Gurukuli abuse that remained ignored after incalculable efforts of parents, or the small devotee, trying to get it corrected but no one would truthfully correct it, or "didn't want to get involved," everything crashed and burned. From lawsuits to children growing up and taking their own style of revenge.

Such problems don't evaporate, they are irreligiousity. The price will have to be paid. Dodge it they may, but karma will find a route to their doorstep if they continue pretending like this. A conflict to the genuine teachings and instructions of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. Wondering if the importance of that has been forgotten.
