9. Enlighten Ordinary knowledge obtained by a university education pertains only to matter. Knowledge means knowing the distinction between spirit and matter. In modern education there is no knowledge about spirit; they are simply taking care of the material elements and bodily needs. - Srila Prabhupada www.evo lvep un e.co m 09
10. Yatras or Retreats offers an opportunity to be away from everything that often keeps us distracted, and to absorb our consciousness in spiritual vibration, which is an essential food for soul. - HH Radhanath Swami 10
11. Engage Every living being is anxious for full freedom because that is his transcendental nature. And this freedom is obtained only through the transcendental service of the Lord. - Srila Prabhupada www.evo lvep un e.co m 11 Love means to serve and to serve means to please. - HH Radhanath Maharaj
12. Yes, a shiksa guru is anyone who can give spiritual advancement. You take instruction from my books, and if you are unable to understand any portion of the books, then you can get it explained by any senior devotee. Any senior devotee can be an instructor in spiritual subject matters. - Srila Prabhupada Letter, July 7, 1974 12
13. Entertain Our process is simple, all-embracing, we have something to offer for everyone. There is chanting, dancing, feasting and very perfect philosophy, so everyone may be satisfied with our Krishna Consciousness Movement. Srila Prabhupada Letter, Oct. 4, 1973 www.evo lvep un e.co m 13
