Please accept my obeisances at your feet.
Sri Guru Gauranga Jayatah!
All glories to His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada!

It is a privilege to be of service to the Vaishnava community. I feel blessed to be able to work in this capacity, but it would be folly to not expect opposition to our current efforts.

Today, a thoughtful young man from India wrote to me privately requesting for evidence of these copyright claims. He heard from his ISKCON authority that some "envious outcastes" are only fabricating trouble to disturb the minds of devotees.

As an embodied jiva, I will not pretend to be completely unshackled from envy, and I've written about my struggles with this if you are interested (link in comments). It is also true that I was born in impious circumstance. But the copyright claims made by ISKCON in various countries are, unfortunately, real — despite Srila Prabhupada's unambiguous guidance against this.

So to satisfy this sincere young devotee's request, I quickly compiled a document of current or pending trademarks by ISKCON for the sacred names "Hare Krishna" and the moniker "Hare Krishna Movement". I've linked this in the comments below.

This is not a complete list, but covers some major western countries and New Zealand where I reside. If anyone would like to further this research, please contact me directly via DM.

Thank you for all of your support. I had no idea how strongly the Vaishnava community would respond, but it has been overwhelming.

paraṁ vijāyate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam

Begging to remain your servant,

Oppose the exclusive trademark of "Hare Krishna" in New Zealand, Australia and elsewhere

Please support this petition. Your voice does matter.

You aren't a resource to be exploited within a dominance hierarchy where you aren't significant. That's not how Vaishnavism works. Krishna loves you dearly and wants you to "sing your song".

❤ ❤ ❤ Hare Krishna my eternal Vaishnava family. I will die on this hill:

Here's a petition to raise concerns about the trademark claims of "Hare Krishna" by some members of ISKCON leadership.

Please sign this petition and end this embarrassment so that future generations of Vaishnavas in the coming centuries will not get upset stomachs and wonder how the message of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu ever got through the decades of misappropriation and into their experience.

Jaya Narasimhadeva!

Here is a project I spent much energy and many hours recording, editing and producing. It's all of the recordings of Mayapur Kirtan Mela 2013 when my family was staying there.

Please take, and please send your Vaishnava blessings.

I offer my respectful obeisances unto Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya and Lord Nityānanda, who are like the sun and moon. They have arisen simultaneously on the horizon of Gauḍa to dissipate the darkness of ignorance and thus wonderfully bestow benediction upon all.

Today I set up a Patreon account to help support my dear friend and mentor Jaya Tirtha Carana Prabhu to help him to maintain the server cost for his Sri Shaligram Tirtha Pradarshini website. He has been single-handedly maintaining and footing the bill for this offering as a service to devotees of shaligram silas worldwide since the early days of the internet.

For as little as US$1.08 per month, you could help this worthy cause that has tied together so many devotees with a hub for sharing darshana, katha and information.

Think of something useless you spend $1.08 on per month, open your heart and be generous. You will experience the benefit.
