[S]he calls herself a swamini... and she sounds very male to me. First guess - Hridayananda, she is actively defending his dress code recently... and says:

Unless ISKCON radically changes it'92s teachings from a Prabhupada-centric take-no-prisoners style of '93everyone is crap but us'94 style of teaching, to a more traditional style of teaching where theology is taught...

There are some western European countries where ISKCON is doing alright, certainly better than the United States, Canada and Latin America ....

Like I already said-I accept him as being empowered some of the time, when he sticks to theological teachings...

No, as far as I know her identity is real. Some people know her in person. The one thing she shares with Hridayananda is being a Jewish intellectual.

Very close to a story from Holywood movie :-)

Vrajabhumi is most likely to be a pen name of someone. See: http://tapati.livejournal.com/478290.html

Vrajabhumi, her I do not know, but read too much of what she wrote. Appears she is highly intelligent but untrained, not given enough time or care when in ashrama I think I read her say somewhere. Now burnt, having own ideas. Much she does not understand but thinks to know it all. Reading her blog, she says how do we know Prabhupada is pure devotee? Hurt my heart. Other sites too were troublesom. Especially motivated me start one to clear Srila Prabhupada name of their misgivings of him.
