For certain devotees wearing a dhoti in daily life might not seem to be realisic but I don't see from few selected quotes how it comes to mean "not desired by Srila Prabhupada". Haven't Srila Prabhupada shown to us his own example of always wearing the whole set of Vaisnava signs? Your servant Visista dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
