ISKCON is teaching an alternative thought process completely. WHo else is saying you are not the body, you the soul which lives in the body, so please do some actiivty for the soul, this will give you fulfilment and make your life successful. Do not get into the rat race of possessing degree, job, house in gated community, most expensive car with latest accessories, woman, children. Simplify your life by limiting your needs. Focus on what is important rather than living up the expectations of society. Look for peace, quiet, happiness within and in the sublime, rather than in material things.
So how do you propose to make these thoughts mainstream?
There are enough grihasta devotees who are leading by example on how to lead a life whihc has best of both worlds - taking advantage of modern development in society and leading a very traditional, cultured life steeped in scriptures.
