Hare Krishna. Please accept our humble obeisance’s. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
We are aware that you are on the verge of resolving that lady devotees can act as diksha gurus within ISKCON. This idea has several negative consequences . Female diksha gurus can pose serious treat to our esteemed organization.
We submit our opposition to your desire to resolve in favour of female diksha gurus within ISKCON and remain.
There is no need. They can preach, be siksa Guru, do Harinam, distribute Srila Prabhupada’s books and raise Krishna Conscious children. If they are seeking after it then automatically they disqualify themselves.

So many things could be said (pros and cons) but as a whole and to summarize, as a husband of a lady devotee whom I served up until her last breath while uttering the Name of Krishna all together with her mother and father before she went straight to Krishna as per the very words of our Spiritual Master Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami, there is a natural order and law of nature which we have to follow and respect. Further details and explanations can be provided if need be. Thank you

siddhanta.com explains the matter authoritatively based on sastra that FDG is only credited to liberated perfected souls. Devotees can go by how they feel, or turn to sastra to come to correct conclusions.
