Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Racism has been a problem in Iskcon from the very begining and is still toda my main concern is why it has never been discussed openly. This is a serious problem that cannot be ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 the iskcon organization is made by humans.. so there's no surprise if there are problems by human materialistic/egoistic mentality but in iskcon principles as given by srila prabhupada and gaudya vaishnava tradition there's no problems so there's no surprise and no fear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Evidence? Not saying it may not be true but without evidence, it's just another useless claim.

theist Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 I have brought it up several times on this very forum and the subject never gotm disscussed rational but rather emotionally. That can never be very productive. I suggest broadening the discuss instead of trying to confine it within ISKCON. Any organization will carry what it's members bring to it. There is certainly nothing in the teachings of Krsna consciousness that foster racism, quite the opposite. Define what you mean by racism as has been suggested and let's roll. No fear here.

This is a serious problem that cannot be ignored. The colour of ones material body is not a problem. There shouldnt be a problem. We are all one family. All sons of the almighty Purna Purshottam. WHat is colour?Lol. Krishna was dark Balram was light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
