I don't want to start a dispute either. I would hope discussing this most

important subject amongst mature adults wouldn't necessitate a dispute.

It is difficult in this age no doubt. That is why there is the facility of

bonafide guru. The varna is there in everyone. Krsna said catur-varnyam...

Besides, it is not of utmost importance to find out an existing inclination in

someone, inclination we can take advantage of sometimes and it IS helpful, but

TRAINING is the key. Almost anyone can be trained into a varna by a qualified

varnasrama-dharma program as designed by the pure devotee, Srila Prabhupada.

He took candalas and trained some of them to become brahmanas.

 

But without even a glimpse of training facilities (varnasrama colleges) in

ISKCON how can we expect to train?

Amongst other means, a bonafide guru surely must be able to determine this,

don't you think? Thus my inquiry.

 

Did you know of some ISKCON gurus who are dividing according to varna?

 

Sincerely,
