Of course you cannot have 'healthy' brahminical culture, unless the brahmins

are inependant. Which basicaly means that they are individualy in control of

the means of production, in other words, land.

 

In order for them to get on with farming their land, they need to be

protected, it goes on, and on. Without Krsna Conscious village culture, we

wont have independant brahmins. I wonder how many brahmins we have in the

society, who are afraid to go against their ISKCON providers?

I am still inspired by Srila Prabhupadas vision. I dont think it is that

difficult to engage people according to their propensities, they will

certainly be into it. The problem is that sometimes the leaders want to

engage people according to the leaders perceived needs.

 

That is what has to be changed, the vision. A vision statement that does not

include varnasrama goals, is hopelessly incomplete. Do we have a vision

statement? I guess that would be the constitution that Prabhupada wanted us

to make, is that being done?
