Focus of the Mentorship System (MS) is on the all-encompassing care, both spiritual and material, of existing devotees and not on expansion. Mentees have the facility also of having one-to-one personal meetings with their mentor based on Sacinandana Swami\u2019s \u201cTree of Life\u201d concept. Devotees feel part of an extended family and by regular training and positive, healthy, devotee association, they will naturally become more stronger in their spiritual lives and happier too! After some years of being in ISKCON we often tend to mechanically perform our sadhana and service, by getting together in the mentee groups we are reminded of the most important regulation which is to \u201cAlways remember Krsna, and never forget Him\u201d. Mentors assist us in becoming more conscious of Krsna and keep us focused on our ultimate goal of life of going back home, back to Krsna. As a result of feedback, to cater for devotees of differing levels, our meeting formats have flexibility to be more tailor-made for the individual groups. We are very delighted to be able to offer a new prasadam service to those in the MS and we are looking for more devotees to assist in our new initiative of cooking and\/or delivering prasad to mentees in times of illness etc. Please email us at mentorship@krishnatemple. com if you can help. To find out more about the MS visit the \u201cdepartments\u201d section on krishnatemple.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
