How about - "Save yourself first", before one may attempt to save others, and I mean not only on the spiritual platform. Often we could see in out ISKCON history that devotees who are living together in a project are themselves made so dependant from others for their maintanance that they have problems to save themselves what to speak of others. To decentralize this autoritarian communistic structures and allow more privat personal initiative would be, I think also a favorable way to "help SP spread this Krsna Consciousness movement all over the world, utilizing (our) energys as best (we) are able to do it." What do you think? Your servant Harsi das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
