VedaBase => Letter to: Yogesvara -- Bombay 28 December, 1971 I wonder if the "in this way" that Srila Prabhupada wrote in this 1971 letter to Yogesvara prabhu was refering to some specific point in question? The general instruction stands very relevantly in any case: ---original message--- Our process is to show Krishna Consciousness as it is, not as others want to see it. By showing KC in this way, you are making the thing less important. It is not that we should change to accommodate the public, but that we should change the public to accommodate us.... If we simply present Krishna Consciousness in a serious and attractive way, without need to resort to fashionable slogans or tricks, that is sufficient. Our unique asset is our purity. No one any where can match it. That will be noticed eventually and appreciated, as long as we do not diminish or neglect the highest standard of purity in performing our routine work, not that we require to display or announce ourselves in very clever ways to get attention. No, our pure standard is enough. Let us stand on that basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
