Google plus
Running out of time for writing long blog videos.
Add me on google plus if you want to stay in touch:
I have most probably given many people troubles in the mind. Some of them might have thought about me that I am their enemy because I was obliged to speak the plain truth for service and devotion towards the Absolute Godhead. I have given them all those troubles only for the reason that they may turn their face towards the Personality of Godhead without any desire for gain and with unalloyed devotion. I hope some day or other they may understand me rightly.
Excerpt from the last lecture of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati. Translated from the Bengali and printed in the first edition of BTG magazine By Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupäda.

Kali yuga agents
After the time of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, those faithful to Him kept apart from nondevotees, to avoid contamination. Seeing this, the personality of Kali sent his representatives in disguise to pollute the Vaisnava sampradaya. Posing as Vaisnavas, they spread their wicked doctrines, and appeared so intelligent and devoted that only pure devotees could detect their real identity. Most devotees -- not only the most neophyte -- were enchanted by their tricks. In this way Kali's agents expertly introduced karma, jnana, and anyabhilasa in the Vaisnava sampradaya and caused suddha-bhakti to vanish from the world.
>From Sajjana Tosani 18.2.13-14 (1915); probably written by Siddhanta Sarasvati.
