Personally I don't understand why bridge seminars designed to reach out to non devotees are being held at Radha desh and other devotees' seminars. To me it all signifies a gradual infiltration and watering down by atheistic elements of Srila Prabhupada's pure process of devotional service. That's why I speak out against it. ys, jdd Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
