Cry O my beloved India!

[Guest guest]

By my posting the article by Francis Gauthier I was not endorsing his views,

nor was I making any comment on modern Indian politics. I simply thought

that the article would be of interest and value to the preaching soldiers of

the Krishna Consciousness movement. Many ISKCON devotees who live outside of

India see modern India only through the perspective of the Western press,

and seeing another perspective may be helpful.

 

I would be hard pressed to find a modern political party or even a single

main-stream politician, in any part of the world, that can do much for the

Krishna consciousness movement except perhaps in a limited way under special

circumstances, and ISKCON should strictly avoid any kind of gross or subtle

policial endorsements, either formal or from the vyasasan. By our preaching

if we can make the people Krishna Conscious, then naturally they will exert

their influence on the country as a whole.
