Interesting, yes, also from the point of wiev of training some

algebra. Like, from the above we may calculate that:

 

100'000'000 uninitiated = 1 sannayasin, or:

1'000'000 brahmacaris = 1 sannyasin

----

So, in ISKCON we got cca 100 sannyasis, and that is the

equivalent to 10'000'000'000 bhaktas, or 100'000'000 brahmacaris,

or 1'000'000 grhastas...

 

 

I just forgot, what did it say, equal in term of *what*???

In advancement in Krsna consciousness, or is it in something

else?
