An example of a complete non-realistic teachings (bull-shit) of the great but false pseudo guru Johnny Baldwin Midgett aka Balakhilya das, who in his lectures in Poland or in Ukraine, insistently argued that nowadays we have all the facilities to "please our senses". Midgett's pseudo guru, who lives in a hacienda in Hawaii and when there is no electricity and water, it is a tragedy

By the way, there is an opportunity to verify the willingness to help foreign devotees. Recently, a member of the former SIF Poland died, father of many children, the hero of several media scandals - a tragically deceased child. Requests for financial support were sent out. Maybe it is worth checking if such support has reached the wife from abroad? Another example is the story of a devotee

One of the fans or activists recently published a quote on FB - the words: “The motivating force behind youthful suicide is lack of love at home, feelings of abandonment, or an overwhelming sense of aloneness and rejection.”~Jagad Guru (Chris Butler) Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa Prabhupada.
