I agree. We have to remember that we are representatives of our tradition

and should therefore make sure we behave in a way that reflects well on

Vaisnavism and Srila Prabhupada. Being respectful of others' traditions at

a time like this goes a long way. It's not the time to try to cram our

philosophy down other people's throats (although answering questions about

our understanding of death is obviously another matter) or insisting on

doing things "our" way.

Ys,

Madhusudani dasi
