You need to be a member of ISKCON Desire Tree | IDT to add comments!
You cannot make anyone Krsna conscious, that is Krsna's job. You can simply show the path.
What you do when you go to meet your friend is - pls carry some prasadam from the temple for him and his family. That is most powerful. If he has mind problems, you can tell him that there is something which is above the mind. Like how we have 5 senses, then superior to that is mind, superior to mind is intelligence, superior to intelligence is soul. Therefore, if mind is giving trouble, we can use our intelligence to curb/ ignore the mind and continue to do what is correct.
You can give him a copy of Bhagavad Gita As It Is and ask him to read it. Tell him he should ask questions wherever he doesnt understand.
You can tell the family to chant and each member should chant one round of mahamantra everyday for your friend. This way, everyone will be praying for him, which will ultimately benefit him. You can tell the family to become fully vegeterian, no onion or garlic, and to offer the food to Krsna before anyone eats it. This way, your friend gets prasadam every meal, whihc is the surest way to heal. You can tell the family to read Gita along with or separately from your friend. You should invite the full family to the local temple for Sunday feast program and make it a habit every sunday.
Automatically, all problems will be solved.
Take care prabhu,
Really nice of you to try to help your friend and his family in this way. I pray that you succeed.
