  • Hare Krishna Gopal Prabhuji,

    Please accept my humble obeisances, all glories to Srila Prabhupada,

     It is great news that you are planning to create a model Krishna conciousness village.
    As Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has preidcted, each and every place/village will get a chance to chant Sri Krishnas name.

    I guess you are heading in the right direction, so all the best, may Sri Krishna offer the strength to keep you going. Please keep us posted here about your plan as how it is going.

    May be you can open an Google doc which can be shared online for all to see about the plan , goals and how far the goals are been reached. 

    One way  of making the goals is

    S -Specific   ie what we wish to achieve
    M-Measuarable ie how can we measure whether we have reached the goal
    A- Attainable ie what actcions we have to take to reach the goal
    R- Realistic ie do we have to make any modifications to the goal to be able to achieve it
    T - Timely - approximately how long it takes to accomplish the goal.

    I guess we have a large community of Hare Krisha Devotees on this site who are from different walks of life. Once we have broken down the goal into small bits , then we can post here to seek specific assistance. For example there may be many software professionals here on this website who may offer to create website without fees or some doctors may offer some one off or ongoing support, or some may wish to do voluntary work. Even some of the devotees living abroad may be interested to voluntarily work if we can provide proper infrastructure like accomodation/food to the devotees who wish to offer their support.

     

     These are some of my thoughts, we shall get the ball rolling and see as how it goes.

    Any way I wish to appreciate you that you have taken a bold step to make a whole village Krishna conciousness, you aim is very lofty.

     Shall be in touch

    Your servant
