Although during our life we know everything really belongs to the Lord and we use it in His service, when leaving our body this fact becomes even more clear. It therefore behooves those of us who have significant assets to decide how they will continue to be used in His service in a responsible way when we leave this world for the next.<\/p>\n<p>Donating to charities, non-profits and religious\/spiritual organizations in one\u2019s Last Will and Testament is a common and respectable act. Within ISKCON this has also become a regular affair and the results can make a very significant difference to a temple in need. We hope those with the means will consider the TOVP in their thoughts when creating their final distribution of wealth.<\/p>\n<p>Click to read a <a class=\"postlink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.protective.com\/learning-center\/estate-planning\/using-a-last-will-and-testament-to-donate-to-charity-after-youre-gone\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">short and simple explanation<\/a> of three different types of contributions you can make in your Last Will: Fixed Sum, Specific Legacy and Residuary Legacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-tjrP1T9fVf8\/W9bHXvWbdfI\/AAAAAAAAnbY\/TgCuFm_W0pEZffKFs6i9Z76PLXmgVOFpwCHMYCw\/s0\/2018-10-29_09-39-56.jpg\" alt=\"Hare Krishna\"\/>For a devotee, death means leaving everything behind and continuing our wonderful spiritual journey of gradual progress back to Godhead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[118],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-68038","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-recent-media"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=68038"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68038\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":68041,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68038\/revisions\/68041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=68038"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=68038"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=68038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
