Is Pranami sector being criticized?

Greetings (Pranam) everyone. This is a blog that is dedicated to address issues happening currently in the Pranami community around the entire world.

Instead of simply demanding a simpler answer to that question (on the title), why not we ask - what had led to those people to criticize at the first instance? Won't people always react to what they see and what they feel?

Pranami sector has been primarily divided into two separate sectors. Differences in thoughts and livelihood can be seen more or less between the two. The first sector is pre-dominantly well known in the Hindu society as "Shree Krishna Pranami Dharma" whereas the other sector only defines itself by its original name known by the name of "Nijanand Sampradaya" universally.

Let's address this burning issue firstly by analyzing "institutional strategy" from both sectors in the field. Let us try to answer these questions or try to seek answers of the following questions from religious leaders (or true followers) of both the sectors – 

Q#. How do you identify yourself at first?
Q#. How do you then approach to non-sundarsaath community (who are almost all the Hindus) for transmitting Prannath's wisdom?

Phew! That's plenty of questions right there. I know these questions are tough and some of the leaders may find it hard to swallow and may start playing blame games.

Now let’s start digging the answers. I will keep updating this post. Meanwhile, share your thoughts by giving your valuable comments. I would like to invite everyone out there for a meaningful discussion to the topics raised. If you want to add few more questions, you’re most welcomed in that case. So, let’s discuss.
