I did not omit the sentence for any other reason than my point. Obviously, you don't know the difference between varna and asrama. I suggest you go back to Srila Prabhupada's books and study varnasrama a lot more. Brahmacari is asrama, not varna. So my point was they are teaching asrama first, varna later. This was not Prabhupada's as he presented it in Vrindavana 1974 nor in Feb 1977 wherein he clearly described and defined the direction he wanted his movement to go in. It has not been going in that direction for 25 years. Clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
