Daily number of rounds of Hare Krishna mahamantra.

Last year I prayed 6 but now I fall down. One round

When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?

I am 21 years old and I was born in a Christian family. I have known about Sanathan Dharma, or Hinduism as it is popularly called, since I was a child. I loved and still love Kali Ma and Shiva. I accidentally found Iskcon in Sarajevo and my life changed. I loved Krishna more than myself. I am reading scriptures, I have read Bhagavad Geeta, now I am on Shrimad Bhagavatam. I wanted to do pooja and had no choice. Some reactions from devotees hurt me because I am too emotional and take things to heart. On one occasion I hurt the devotees very much because I said in an ugly way what was bothering me and I no longer appeared in Iskcon. I was given the deities of another Sampradaya Radha and Krishna and I love the Guru of that Sampradaya but I cannot see him as the main teacher but I am eternally grateful to him because he taught me. Iskcon is still in my heart and Srila Prabupada, I have Radha Krishna, Shiva and Kali but I don't know how to worship them properly but I improvise pooja.

Name the nearest or most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.

Iskcon Bosnia and Hercegovina/ Sri Niketau Vejo, Tulasi Devi Dasi, Jahnukanyaka Devi Dasi
