Interim decision from the GBC executive commitee concerning Dhanurdhara Swami

I certainly hope the GBC is intending to provide a thorough theological/shastric justification (via a combination of guru, sadhu, shastra precedents) to the community for the rationale behind its radical decision to not allow Dhanurdhara Swami to initiate within ISKCON and, if it decides to do it, the theological justification for instructing him to give up sannyasa. This latter restriction in particular seems rather strange in light of shastric descriptions about the nature and characteristics of sannyasa and such a decision would be curiously demonstrative of the way in which the concept of sannyasa has come to be uniquely interpreted and applied by the Governing Body Commissioners of ISKCON.
