Testimonial by Param D.D.
Testimonial by Param Devi Dasi (Chile)
It's
not something I want to write about because it's been hard for me to find
inspiration to do it, I've also been afraid of reprisals because I have a
little baby, but in sorority to my sisters and in honor of justice I'm going to
tell my truth. Those who know me can confirm that I sincerely believed in the
Vaisnava ideals and that I loved the gurus as a dog loves its owner.
I
served for 14 years mainly in Chile, in a certain occasion I sought refuge
in GM and he invited me to India, that's where it happened... I'm going to tell
you as it is, GM called me to go to his side, I approached to hear him face to
face and he very big-eyed with his hands turned me and put his hand on my
waist, me, motionless... Then he lowered his hand to my ass and left it there
for a long time, pressing. I didn't say anything because I was very
embarrassed, I had a hard time understanding what had happened, it's like a
mental breakdown, he's the boss and you don't want to be fired for saying it
like that and according to the philosophy you have to please him, then here in
Chile it happened to me again, but this time it touched my breasts.
I
left the Vrinda mission, but I still have faith in the mantra, although now I
even doubt a bit of philosophy, or rather I think that it should be used within
a context, within margins where the basic norms of respect and human rights
cannot be transgressed. My reverences to all beings who try to be good at
heart, I hope these revelations do not discourage you from pursuing your full
happiness daily, dandavats.

This barking is some kind of witch-hunt by dogs? Hunting? What does swami say? Where is his statement on this matter?
