why is so much importance given to ritualistic practices in isckon. in the past and even today the "brahmins" in the society have exploited the ignorant in the name of rituals.

I am sorry if I offended you.please don't get offended.
In the indian society the pandits prescribe a host of rituals for every occassion which usually involves lots of puja and donations to themselves. how to decide which rituals are to be followed and which are not and in which form.
by "brahmins" I meant the people society calls brahmins because of the surname(last name)that they use.
I'm not saying that one should dispose of rituals, but if you don't have faith in it then you should rather have faith in doing the Maha Mantra. The Maha Mantra is the most powerful Mantra in the universe. It's free so you will save lots of money too.
