A "sannyasi" is not the synonym for "Krsna's devotee", as I

know it.

 

If a brahmacari is devotee, if grihasta is a devotee, if a

sannyasi is a devotee, how can you now make the algebric

comparation among them in term of who is more advanced in KC,

based on the color of their ashrama merely?

 

A sannyas, grhasta, brahmacari... these are material designations

after all, while "devotee" is spiritual and has nothing to do

with the division on four ashramas.

 

 

Anyway, I've been always told that to remain a brahmacari is

much better than to marry, that to marry means you got 50%

less chance to go back to Godhead... So, finally, just see!

I (an ISKCON grhastha) and 100 times more KC than an ISKCON

brahmacari! (according to Vedas So, back to algebra; If

I got 50% chance to go back to Godhead, then a brahmacari

got 0,5% chance... and a sannyas 500'000 %. Well, luckily

I am not a brahmacari, at least.

How many devotees there are on the Earth? I don't know. But

I am sure it is more than some 100 ISKCON sannyasins. Hundreds

of millions perhaps. One doesn't have to provide a danda in

order to be "recognized" as a devotee of God.
