SRILA PRABHUPADA ASHRAYA :

In addition to fulfilling the above mentioned commitments of

Krishna Upasaka, I will fulfill the following additional standards

of devotional service and I shall receive the blessings of Sri Sri

Jagannath Baladev and Devi Subhadra to practice Krishna

Consciousness as a Srila Prabhupada Ashraya :

1. I will chant atleast sixteen rounds of the Hare Krishna maha-

mantra everyday.

2. I will strictly avoid intoxication including coffee and tea,

meat-eating, gambling, cinema, sports and illicit sex. I will

also abstain from taking onion and garlic.

3. I will be well versed in the basics of Krishna Conscious

philosophy by reading the books of Srila Prabhupada

systematically and actively engaging in preaching ( according

to my capacity) to others about Krishna Consciousness.

4. I will follow a strict sadhana programme at home by rising

early in the morning and following a program similar to the
