Please accept my humble obeisances. All Glories to our guru, His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada! Would it not be an insult to Radha, Krishna, and His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada's sampradaya to reject a veritable source of a qualified pure devotee's authentic ability in a committed service of their life's purpose to dutifully engage in spreading the Absolute Truth in such a way that His Grace Srila Prabhupada has modeled? We need not place limit of the power and intent of the Absolute Truth in any way such as to make gender a disqualification.

BG 9.32: "O son of Pṛthā, those who take shelter in Me, though they be of lower birth – women, vaiśyas [merchants] and śūdras [workers] – can attain the supreme destination." BG 7.27 Purport: "... This is their misfortune. Such deluded persons, symptomatically, dwell in dualities of dishonor and honor, misery and happiness, woman and man, good and bad, pleasure and pain, etc., thinking, “This is my wife; this is my house; I am the master of this house; I am the husband of this wife.” These are the dualities of delusion." CC Madhya 8.128: “Whether one is a brāhmaṇa, a sannyāsī or a śūdra — regardless of what he is — he can become a spiritual master if he knows the science of Kṛṣṇa.”

What currently exists is a human prejudice that prevents the expansion of Krishna consciousness. In other words, an attachment to body identification is preventing us from facilitating others’ and especially our own reunion with the Supreme and reconnecting with love itself. In amending the rule to incorporate women into Krishna’s task force, people across the world would be inspired to live in God’s service, in service to devotees, in service of their unique purpose to live and contribute to the world. This would be a life-saving measure to grant billions of people a way out of material bondage. Este prejuicio material que excluje a las mujeres nos está robando de un mundo transformado. Hay billones de personas sufriendo por no conocer a Dios. Ahora tenemos la oportunidad de calmar esta angustia a través de la propagación del conocimiento sagrado. Es urgente y esencial para que se siga diseminando paz y amor. Washington, DC / Buenos Aires

This step is very important to keep up-to-date with the development of human society. The role of women in modern world is increasing, and Srila Prabhupada recommented to take time, place and circumstances into account in our activity. Women have no less inteligence, wisdom, experience and devotion, than men. We need women leaders in our society, moreover, we need to have gender ballance in ISKCON leadership. I encourage everyone to sign this petition!
