WE ARE NONSECTARIAN IN EVERY RESPECT~ So this is the warm invitation of Krishna Consciousness. It has nothing to do with black or white, young or old, or believe me, Christian or Jew or Hindu or anything like that. We consider these to be as much a part of false ego—Christian, Hindu, Jew—as we do black, white, young, old, man or woman. Because they were delegated to this body—Im born in a Christian family, I call myself a Christian; Im born in a Hindu family, I call myself a Hindu—so because of this body Im a Hindu, because of this body Im a Jew, and if I was born a million years ago would I be a Hindu, Christian or Jew? No. But Id still be a servant, Id still have my consciousness. See? Suppose youre born a hundred thousand years from now? Are you going to be a Christian or a Hindu or a Jew? No. But youll still have your consciousness, youll still have to serve, and youll still want to be happy. (VISNUJANA SWAMI - Festival Address Oregon 1/6/75)
