Philosophy

Who am I?

We usually answer
this question by defining ourselves
in terms of our body, occupation, family or locality,
as I do on my home page.

However, this is all temporary. We have no real identity in relationship with matter.

Our real identity is as eternal spirit soul, loving servant of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krishna.

This body is merely one of millions we pass through
during our sojourn in this material world.

So?

This philosophy was given to the world by His Divine Grace Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Founder-Acharya of the modern Hare Krishna movement, ISKCON, and author of many books on Krishna Consciousness, including Bhagavad-Gita As It Is.

I try to follow Srila Prabhuapada's teachings and be a vaishnava, a Hare Krishna devotee. Vaishnavism involves respect to all living entities, so that means I'm also a vegetarian and an environmentalist.

For more on Krishna Consciousness, see iskcon.org.uk (which I look after), Ksyberspace (which I neglect), and iskcon.com.
