Top Ten Signs You're Turning into "ISLCON"
(The International Society for Laxmi Consciousness)
#10. You got your diksha guru from an Internet website.
#9. You have deities of Shiva and Ganesh on the side altar to keep the laxmi coming.
#8. You’re having non-devotee weddings in front of the deities.
#7. You're going out of your way to create luxurious living quarters for visiting GBCs and sannyasis.
#6. Many of your devotee friends living in the temple have side jobs.
#5. Your ability to move up in the organization is influenced by your Laxmi Points.
#4. When you say you’re concerned about philosophical issues, you’re told that it doesn’t matter what the problems are because it’s Prabhupada’s organization, and faith in Prabupada means faith in ISKCON.
#3. Rather than getting trained in the philosophy, you're asked to donate $1,100 to become a Life Member.
#2. There's a plaque in the same room as the deities showing how much you donated.
And the number one sign you're turning into "ISLCON".…
(Drum Roll)
#1. You're told not to distribute books without direct approval because it is taking money away from the temple.
