A while back I sent out a survey. If you were one of the people who filled it out… Thanks!

The response has been fantastic and the results have been really interesting (and  a little surprising also!)

The survey revealed four main challenges that devotees are facing right now.

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

By His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedānta Swami Prabhupāda

Meat eating means killing animals
