2. “Give them all facility to perfect
their lives by protecting them
and instructing them nicely,
that is now the duty of my
senior disciples.”
- Letter to Karandhara - Delhi, 3 December, 1971.
3. Every devotee in ISKCON is to be provided
with the spiritual, emotional, physical
and social care they deserve as parts and
parcels of Krsna according to Srila
Prabhupada's instruction and example. This
should be done on the personal and
institutional level.
4. We strive to care for the
spiritual, emotional, physical,
and social well-being of the
devotees of ISKCON. We want
devotees to be encouraged,
inspired, and empowered to be
happy and make progress in
Krsna consciousness, and
thus be enthused to expand
Srila Prabhupäda’s mission
5. We assist with the
overall management
and facilitation of the
leaders of ISKCON
in taking care of
devotees who have
dedicated their lives
to Srila Prabhupada's
movement.
