6. Krishna Consciousness Isn't Just At Airports :-)

they serve pretty good meals... free too!

[OffWithTheirHeads]

7. Well, that's very cool

feeding hungry people is good shit but I worry about organized religeon in general and kind of tend to lump Krishna people in with Catholics.

[patrice]

9. There's less separation of Good and Evil in Krsna Consciousness

than in Christianity. Krsna Liberates the Demons he kills. Their entitities migrate to greater union with Krsna even though they were Demons.

That is essentially the anti-thesis of "Christianity".

8. Chanting feels good. It is focusing.

10. My friend Maria took me along w/ her once.

The food was very good and they were some of the most welcoming people that I have ever met.
I have no problems saying hi at an airport. I think they're pretty cool people.

[skooooo]

13. Mmm...the food from the Hare Krishna places..

...around the world is great. I've eaten at there places in Germany, Russian, and the US, of course.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

17. Do they make you listen to proselytizing

like the fundie, so called Christians?

[skooooo]

20. No, not at all...

...the food wasn't free though. Usually there was nice music playing, incense burning, and just a nice calm atmosphere.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

22. sounds pretty cool.

[patrice]

26. Nope.

You may chant and dance with them, though, if you wish.

23. Lighten up, Francis

"Some day, one of these men may save your life".

"But then again, maybe one of us won't".

:rofl:

[skooooo]

12. I've been..

..attracted to Hinduism and these images of Krishna ever since I was a kid. I'd like to get back into reading about it again...

[patrice]

27. I find it's conception of "What is happening" to be more mature

and complete. Though, that conception is ir-relevant. What is relevant is humble, actually rather simple, service at Krsna's Lotus Feet - faithfully within the empirical interaction of Krsna Consciousness, i.e. service and chanting, discipline and obediance from within the empirical interface of Krsna Consciousness in your life, i.e. the Lotus Feet. This is what is important to Krsna devotees.

[skooooo]

14. Do you know of..

....a Hindu or Krishna temple in West Virginia? up in the mountains? I think it's kind of a retreat. I visited there one time with some friends.

18. "Chant in the name of the Lord and you'll be free"

Many thanks to George's "Awaiting for you All" on "All Things Must Pass."

[patrice]

28. And also his subsidization of Sri Prabhupada's translation of Krsna's

past-times - The Bhagavad Gita.

Harebo!

[flamingyouth]

19. I've always like this chant we say before an Anusara Yoga class:

Om Namah Shivaya Gurave
Saccidananda Murtaye
Nisprapancaya Shantaya
Niralambaya Tejase

You can hear it at: www.elizabethrainey.com

[skooooo]

21. What does it mean??

[flamingyouth]

25. Translated:

(I do not speak Sanskrit, so I can't vouch for the accuracy of this translation)

I offer myself to the Light, the Auspicious Self.
who is the true teacher within and without,

Who assumes the forms of Reality, Consciousness and Bliss,

Who is never absent and is full of peace

Independent in his existence,
He is the vital essence of Illumination

[patrice]

29. The SuperSoul!

Entity, and More, of Entities.

Hare Krsna!
