When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?
2006; Bangalore - India;
Reading Srila Prabhupad's "Bhagavad Gita As It Is" and other books I bought from a book distribution at CMH Road really attracted me to ISKCON.
Upon doing a web search about ISKCON I was completely convinced about the authenticity of this movement by two statements:
Statement # 1:
I am not here to make followers... I can not break the Vedic rules ... if anyone wants to be my disciple he has to follow 4 regulative principles - no nonveg, no intoxication, no gambling and no illicit sex.
-Srila Prabhupada
Statement # 2:
We do not make our own philosophies ... we simply repeat what is said in scriptures or by great Vaishnava Acharyas.
-Srila Prabhupada
Name the nearest or most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.
Sri Sri Radha Govinda Mandir (ISKCON Kolkata)
HG Vallab Chaitanya Prabhu
HG Ananga Mohan Prabhu
HG Sri Govind Ghosh Das Prabhu
HG Abhimanyu Prabhu
Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.
I am an aspiring devotee. I love reading philosophies and spiritual books. I would like to see myself as a much more humble and more useful servant from what I am now.
Though not very good, but, I love writing and contributing in spreading Krishna Consciousness through a blog and Facebook Page.
