no need for fancy organisation

[Guest guest]

The formula for ISKCON organisation is very simple and can be understood by

everyone. The world is divided into twelve zones. For each zone there is one

zonal secretary appointed by Srila Prabhupada. The zonal secretary's duty is

to see that the spiritual principles are being upheld very nicely in all the

temples of the zone. Otherwise each temple shall be independent and

self-supporting. Let every temple president work according to his own

capacity to improve the Krsna consciousness of the centre. So far the

practical management is concerned, that is required, but not that we should

become too much absorbed in fancy organisation. Our business is spiritual

life, so whatever organisation needs to be done, the presidents may handle

and take advice and assistance from their GBC representative. In this way

let the Society's work go on and everyone increase their service at their

own creative rate. (See letter to all temple presidents, Prabhupada 1987:

1966–7)
