When Srila Prabhupada had hired a lawyer who once worked for Mr. Nair the former owner of the land in Juhu who Srila Prabhupada was opposing in a Court against Tamals objections then Tamal Krishna complained to Nara Narayan Prabhu that Srila Prabhupada was F***en senile in those exact words.This was in 1971 Nara Narayan told me the story himself. I know Nara Narayans wife Rupa Manjari or Roopa Manjari is on face book you could get verification. In June 1970 when Srila Prabhupada was in San Francisco preparing to attend the Ratha Yatra Brahmananda repeatedly warned Srila Prabhupada that he should not attend the Ratha Yatra because the Black Panthers had threatened that they were going to come and violently disrupt the Ratha Yatra. Srila Prabhupada kept ignoring the warnings and insisted he was going to attend no matter what. Finally on the day when it was time to go Brahmananda locked Srila Prabhupada in his room and informed him that, he (Brahamananda), was managing things in the movement not Srila Prabhupada. Everyone then went to the Ratha Yatra and Brahmananda informed the devotees that that Srila Prabhupada was not coming for his safety due to the threat of the Black Panthers. Later when the devotee who was cooking in the basement finished and came upstairs to clean up to go to the Ratha Yatra Srila Prabhupada heard him and banged on the door and made noise and the brahmachari heard him and let Srila Prabhupada out of his room. Srila Prabhupada then attended the Ratha Yatra. When the Black Panthers did attack Karandhar, Keshava, Guru Krpa, Madhuvisa, and a cast of hard core devotees beat the shit out of them. Unfortunately I was in New York and was not there for the fight. Tamal was in Europe either England or Germany. So he had nothing to do with this whatsoever. I am assuming you are talking about Jhanava as the one who prays every day. She was most likely there in San Francisco. I know Nara Narayan told her about the things that Tamal said in Juhu. The China order was a serious argument. I could hear them shouting from down the other end of the buildng at the top of their lungs. NOOO Tamal shouted I will not go to China. I AM THE GURU AND I ORDER YOU TO GO Srila Prabhupada shouted back. It was terrible. Guru Kripa told me the details later of the parts of the conversation that were not being shouted that I missed. Tamal just blatantly defied Srila Prabhupada. He was really upset about this situation being publicly humiliated in front of all the devotees by having his position taken away as head of the Radha Damodara Party and made to go to China. It maybe that at that time he again reiterated that Srila Prabhupada was senile. However at the time I did not hear anyone tell me that he said that.
