Tell me if I am wrong. There is a growing trend among ISKCON devotees including seniors to shy away from three very important aspects of the movement.
1. Hesitation to use always the name KRISHNA while referring to God
2. Wearing of TILAK in a clear and Eye catching manner. It would be nice if devotees from West choose to apply Tilak with Radha Kund Sacred Mud which will contrast with their white skin.
3. SHIKA. It appears the days of shaven heads with golden shikas are gone. More and more devotees display long hair with "SHIKAS" made of a bit of longer hair.
Along with Hare Krishna Mantra these three aspects form four pillars of ISKCON Movement. Erosion of these pillars may please be checked in time
