Sraddha dd That's the point, Mataji. We don't say that one should have faith in the *misapplication* of the ideal system but to have faith in the *ideal* system as given by Krsna, Srila Prabhupada, his books, etc. (as you mention). You are "Sraddha" dd So with full faith in and dedication to execute the instructions of Krsna and Srila Prabhupada, his faithful followers will certainly eventually establish ideal gurukulas. --gkd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
