Be humble, be tolerant, and respect everybody: the iMonk hears this instruction repeated over and over as he begins his sixth month in West Bengal, India, at the lotus feet of his Gurudeva.

Week 1
India: West Bengal: Calcutta

Ten offenses
What are the ten offenses against the Holy Name, and why is it so important to avoid committing these offenses?

Week 2
India: West Bengal: Calcutta

Four regulative principles
How important is it to follow the four regulative principles — no illicit sex, no intoxication, no meat-eating and no gambling?

Week 3
India: West Bengal: Calcutta

Srila Gurudeva's order
Incredibly, even in our own society, some "devotees" think that it is not necessary to follow the four regulative principles!

Week 4+
India: West Bengal: Calcutta

Sincerity is invincible
Hope for the hopeless. Don't be discouraged if you cannot always follow the four regulative principles, but don't be insincere!
