“Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura adopted many practices that were very unusual at the time in order to attract people. He was especially interested in attracting westerners. At the time India was under the rule of the British and perhaps the British looked down on them as a subjugated people. But, although he was so austere and simple, he dressed in a way that an English gentleman would consider him as his equal.”
