When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?
Youtube, while I was surfing on internet, i saw a video of Dr. Vivek Bindra sir on "how to control your mind and emotion" where he explained beautifully with reference to a sloka from the glorious Bhagavad Gita. Then i started watching more of his videos and then he made a video on A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Shrila Prabhupada Ji, then i came to know about ISKCON.
Name the nearest or most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.
I have visited the Kolkata ISKCON temple near Park Street but only twice as currently it is not open due to Covid-19. As of now, I do not know any devotees there. once things get normal I'll definitely connect with them.
Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.
I think a lot. i try to regulate my thoughts towards good things and things I currently need to focus on as I'm a student and studies are important. I delay things which are centered around me and like to do things for other people. I do things which aren't good for me, knowing it's not good but still do it ( like using mobile) but I've limited it recently. Although I still use it for quite a while for online studies, whenever I'm free, or have time, I've regulated myself to watch things which provide me higher values ( watching/ listening Ramayana/ mahabharat/ bhagavad gita/ shrimad Bhagvatam). I registered myself for SMA Program by ISKCON, which gave me a clear picture of my positives and negatives and the ability to deal with it. I started chanting the Hare Krsna Maha Mantra instead of songs, started reading Bhagvad Gita & Shrimad Bhagvatam.
What are your expectations from this community?
Guide me to the path of righteousness and Spirituality.
Describe any specific service you would love to offer to Lord Krishna & His devotees?
I'm up for any service I'm capable of.
