Russian Ambassador Launches Vedic Disneyland

[Guest guest]

Incredible! And devotees conduct it! Anything is good to preach KC. If I can

give you an advice, keep this kind of politic for countries where such

ridiculous comments may play a role. But don’t publish it on Internet. You

will just demonstrate our Iskcon is naive and opportunist. Don’t we have any

ethic to stand for or should we also transcend good and bad in political

relationship. What is next? A smiling picture of the Chinese ambassador with

Gopal Krsna Maharaja in Hare Krishna World proclaiming religion as the

solution for the world problems?

 

“Russian Ambassador, who was the Chief Guest at the ISKCON opening, said: "In

today's world we have seen how bad it is when people are driven by horror, by

a desire to impose something on others. In this connection, compassion and

peace, harmony and coexistence, respect for each other's ideas and beliefs,

has been a very constant and one of the brilliant features of the ISKCON

movement. We do have very close cultural, religious, ethical cooperation with

your society.”

 

Yes, I read well: “We do have very close cultural, religious, ethical

cooperation with your society.” I hope not.

Russian Ambassador Alexander Kadakin, who was the Chief Guest at the opening,

acknowledged the outstanding contribution of many Russian devotee artists to

this multinational project. "In today's world we have seen how bad it is when

people are driven by horror, by a desire to impose something on others," said

Mr. Kadakin in his speech at the opening function. "In this connection,

compassion and peace, harmony and coexistence, respect for each other's ideas

and beliefs, has been a very constant and one of the brilliant features of the

ISKCON movement. We do have very close cultural, religious, ethical

cooperation with your society. As you know, there are more than 150 branches

[of ISKCON] throughout Russia and the republics of the former Soviet Union. It

only shows that the message of your religion has attraction for the people,

among other things, because this is the message of peace, of love and of

compassion," stated the Ambassador of Russia.
