Latest articles, July 8th. The DOM has finally gained public notice and many devotees have taken up the isuse. (See Direction Of Management). I have written 2 new articles on the topic on The Amazing DOM, ISKCON's Bright Future, and Were the GBC of the 1970's capable of Hiding the DOM? And we have posted an email by NaraNarayan V. Prabhu who wrote a preliminary historical account of the DOM papers. See, The Chronology of the DOM. The Direction of Management is a very important paper Srila Prabhupad wrote up in 1970 giving the direction of how the management of ISKCON and the GBC was to be set up and run. This was NEVER implemented, despite the fact that Srila Prabhupad had written a letter in 1974, labeling that letter as TOPMOST URGENT and instructing that the letter be addended to ALL ISKCON temple's legal documents and therein that letter/addendum again instructing that the GBC adhere to the Direction Of Management. And, in other letters also referred to the following of the DOM. Yet, the GBC and Temple Presidents NEVER followed or implemented the DOM. Instead, it appears that they purposefully kept this most important document Hidden awy from the general devotees. Please, this topic is important, please read further.
Bhakti-Vedanta Pur [Bhakti-Vedanta City] -
The beginning of a complete presentation on developing a true and actual Self-Sufficient functioning Vedic Village - farming - Community.
A detailed outline of the community's development plans. The complete civil engineering will be presented, as well as the social engineering. How it will function, both in practical terms of types of occupations - how members of the community will earn their livelihoods - as well as the social cultural and social standards or social structure as well. Why it is needed and why the modern society is inferior. Schools and how they are to be structured. As well as the governing of the village community.
Of course I will be open to input from others, but, I have a keen vision of what I want the community to be, and how it must be developed - which is the result of much contemplation on the topic for many decades. It is time to start putting all that planning and thinking to work and start working seriously toward doing it.
The point of this presentation will be to interest people both currently within ISKCON and also currently outside to donate the needed funds to creat the first functioning working model community. The first community (communities) will need to also include exhibits, etc.
This is a most important project - and my time is limited right now, but please stay tuned. Donations toward this project are always welcome. A Trust-Fund account will be opened and donations will be able to be made toward that fund. A full account would then be posted on the web detailing where those funds go. - Stay tuned - but progress will be slow at first due to my lack of time to dedicate toward this.
