International Sri Krishna Mandir (ISKM) — Attraction in Singapore

Hare Kṛṣṇa. Definitely, I’d put in no stars if there had an option but for the sake of writing a review, I’ve generously given this fraud organization a 1 star. Śrīla Prabhupāda was clear in his May 28th conversation with GBC that in the future, these now 11 Ritviks would no longer be giving initiation on his behalf after his (Śrīla Prabhupāda) disappearance. Not only does this fraud organization (ISKM) run on manipulated ideas and propaganda about genuine ISKCON gurus but they also make a great deal of purposely portraying letters and conversations in a way to very conveniently confuse and mix things up so that person buy into this hoax. This fraud organization (ISKM) is giving poison to those genuinely interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and is pushing out guru Aparadha because they couldn’t read or understand Śrīla Prabhupāda correctly. All this May 28th conversation is telling us is that the formality is that his disciples are to initiate on his behalf only when he is physically present. If we were to assume that Śrīla Prabhupāda was on with the Post Samādhi Ritvik hoax, he would not have clearly said that the initiate would act as his (Śrīla Prabhupāda) grand disciple. I advise all genuine persons to stay away from this dirty organization whose only goal is to poison ISKCON.

Satsvarūpa: Then what is the relationship of that person who gives the initiation and the...

Prabhupāda: He's guru. He's guru.

Satsvarūpa: But he does it on your behalf.

Prabhupāda: Yes. That is formality. Because in my presence one should not become guru, so on my behalf, on my order... Āmāra ājñāya guru hañā [Cc. Madhya 7.128]. Be actually guru, but by my order.

Satsvarūpa: So they may also be considered your disciples.

Prabhupāda: Yes, they are disciples. Why consider? Who?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No, he's asking that these ṛtvik-ācāryas, they're officiating, giving dīkṣā. Their... The people who they give dīkṣā to, whose disciple are they?

Prabhupāda: They're his disciple.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They're his disciple.

Prabhupāda: Who is initiating. He is granddisciple.

Satsvarūpa: Yes.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That's clear.

Satsvarūpa: Then we have a question concer...

Prabhupāda: When I order, "You become guru," he becomes regular guru. That's all. He becomes disciple of my...

Hare Krishna,

Just want to inform that this is not ISKCON place but follow ritvikvad philosophy, not sure why they are using name of ISKCON I am ISKCON devotee and visited singapore for 3 days business meetings and went there for Prasadm with my collegues but the person in saffron there was after me and was blasphemy ( cursing) all major ISKCON senior Maharaj and hearing was a vaishnav aparadh for me and doing this was major offence foe him. I said to stop speaking during eating the Prasad but this person was difficult and do not understand. 2 of my colleague who are not krishna devotee was annoyed by his behavior and this was major dusprachar he was doing. he made difficult to finish us the Prasad and was continuously cribbing senior vaishnavs and we quickly finished prasad with difficulty. My advise if you are ISKCON devotee then hide your kathi mala using muffler and eat Prasad there and do not disclose you are ISKCON devotee otherwise they will do aparadh (offence) and hearing this would also not good for your devotional life.

The deity there are very beautiful and in you can go to have Prasad which is 10 dollar and worth in singapore where majority of people live life in ignorance mode ( tamo guna). Again do not disclose you are ISKCON devotee otherwise you will not enjoy your Prasad.

as they are taking krishna name so they are vaishnava but as ISKCON devotee we need to be very careful and clever.

There is also aISKCON center in singapore (place - little India). There we have Jagannath, Baldeva and Subadhra deity, there they offered me free prasadam and give respect when I told them I am ISKCON devotee. They are associated with Mayapur temple. please do visit there ( little India Gujarati Bhavan) and be blessed and take...

Used to visit this temple often, after a few visits I was called in by a old man, he made me sit down in the office and made me sign up for monthly donation. Since I was in NS I had some income and I signed up. After I ORD, I didn't had money as I went back to study and they would call me every month and ask why I didn't pay/ what happened to the payment. Even made yearly Janmashtami donations where I bought their goodies and all. They will constantly call your number and ask for donation, milk donation, flower donations for this and that. It was quite overwhelming.

This place is actually a good for those who want to learn Hinduism, about God the Lord Krishna but the way the people behaving will definitely not attract anyone to the temple except their own people.

If I go to a mosque or church they would just let me pray, teach me some stuffs about their religion and that's it they will never force me to sign up for this and that. YES I know the temple is running in donations then keep your expenses low.

There is also many people and families staying in the temple so I think the money donated will be used for them more then the deities. So be careful where you put your money. If you wanna do seva go to India and do GoSeva it's the best seva anyone...
