An Open Letter To Janmastami, Hrishikesha and the Editors of Vaishnava Websites:
The Sampradaya Sun recently published two articles: “Reply to Bhaktipada or Bhaktifraud?” from Hrisikesha prabhu and “A Reply to Hrishikesha dasa”from Janmastami prabhu. In each of these articles my name was given as an example of a minor who was sexually abused by Kirtanananda prabhu in the mid 1980’s. I want to point out that this use of my name was done without my knowledge or consent.
