We would like to share with you a seminar H.G. Kaunteya Prabhu gave in Juhu, Mumbai, on Sunday, 20th of October.
The following is a list of topics he covered along with the times at which they were presented:
Unity in Diversity – in which we analyzed the many instructions of Srila Prabhupada on the idea of empowering people to preach from their homes and even install Deities. (0:00- 1:13)
The 50 percent principle (proportional giving for grihasthas):* – Srila Prabhupada spoke and wrote about this in various circumstances, but sometimes there is still confusion on what “income” means; and certainly the application of giving 50 percent is far from widely implemented. (1:13- 1:40)
Women in KC – ladies are an essential part of our communities and therefore we need a “philosophy of women’s engagement,” a policy. The lesson explores various quotes from Srila Prabhupada and encourages devotees to take these directions in their totality and carefully implement them according to the candidate. (1:42-2:46)
Seeing the Temple through the Eyes of the Guests:* – which includes a discussion on what guests look for when they visit – especially for the first time – an analysis of our experiences on *our* first visit, and a tour of the temple to identify how new persons will see and relate with the various aspects of his visit. The goal is improving the quality of their experience and their chance to integrate in the Vaisnava community. (2:46- 3:06)
Tools for Congregational Development (Damodara Program, Sraddha-kutir, Sadhana Charts & Siksha Program): *– Regardless of the style of the community, these tools can help getting people closer and closer. (3:06-4:32)
