Not Wanted

In 1969, His Divine Grace wrote to Yamuna dasi…

"Of course there are many Hindus who may be delighted to have a Hindu temple there, but we are especially interested in something else.
Our plan is not to sponsor the Hindus or any other individual group. Our real purpose is to spread Krishna consciousness."
This and other relevant quotes can be found in Siksamrta, a compilation of Srila Prabhupada's letters.
(Compiled in a Sun article, To Be or Not To Be…?")

Here in August 2010 at Bhaktivedanta Manor, the following flier is being distributed.
A picture is worth a thousand words.

It should be noted that three of the people involved in this are disciples of HH Sivarama Swami.
It should be noted that one of the people involved in this is a disciple of HH Bhakti Caru Swami.
Also…
While Srila Prabhupada's school is right there at Bhaktivedanta Manor…
Two of HH Sivarama Swami's disciples, namely Sruti dharma das (Temple President) and Sita Rama das, both have their children enrolled in the Hindu school.

The Obvious question is…
just what are the Swamis teaching their respective disciples?
Is this in line with what the Founder-Acarya of ISKCON, HDG AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, was teaching us?
And...
if not,
why do the UK ISKCON management and the respective Swamis allow it?
I seem to remember being taught not to disobey the order of the Spiritual Master.
Do we not repeat this every morning?
Is it not an offence against the Holy Name?
