Vaisnava Sadacara and Sanskriti Course
We are glad to welcome you to the “Vaiṣṇava Sadācāra and Saṁskṛti” course, offered by Gauravāṇī Institute for Vaiṣṇava Education.
In this course, we will explore how our daily actions, words, and interactions can be harmonized with devotional values, based on the injunctions of the guru, śāstra, and sādhu. This course is designed to help us deeply understand and apply the principles of Vaiṣṇava sadācāra—the pure and respectful conduct that upholds our spiritual life and deepens our relationships within the devotee community and with the Supreme Lord
In the next few days, we will explore:
• What is Vaiṣṇava sadacara and culture, and why it matters
• Śāstric foundations of devotional conduct
• Relationships with seniors, equals, and juniors
• Respectful dealings with guru, devotees, and newcomers
• Temple behavior, public presentation like kīrtana, lecture, and devotional lifestyle
• Etiquette in preparing bhoga and honouring prasāda
