Iskcon Disciple Course.
By Krishnarupa devi dasi (ACBSP) New Govardhana recently hosted its second ISKCON Disciple Course this year. The course was held over two weekends, with 13 attendees – four from Brisbane, two from Kingscliff and the balance from the local community. As facilitator of the course, I was impressed with everyone’s enthusiasm and commitment. Since Janmastami 2015, any devotee desiring to take either first or second initiation must have undergone the course and received a certificate proving that they have passed the assessment. It is recommended that the course be taken well before the initiation stage for first initiates. It is expected that New Govardhana will be hosting the next Disciple Course around April next year.
