Guest guest Posted October 30, 2000 Report Share Posted October 30, 2000 Dear Prabhus, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Here at Sri Sri Radha Gopinath Mandir in Chowpatty Mumbai, we are holding mock debates in our daily Brahmachari (shastra) class. The first day, we had two teams, the athiests against the theists. There was an audience, a judge and a moderator. The teams chose representatives to repond to challenges set by the opposition. Then there were counter challenges. There were time limits for each team to discuss privatly and then send forth their champion. All the devotees were very enlivened by this. The same day, one of our devotees met an athiest on the train and defeated him in the same manner as our debate. He agreed to start chanting Hare Krishna. Would anyone like to comment on this? Has anyone any experience in Vaisnava debates that would like to share that could help us organize our debates? Could someone mention something pertainent regarding the history of Debate in Vaisnavaism? Always hoping to remain your servant, Ekalavya dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
