Vaishnavi Ministry
What is the ISKCON Vaishnavi Ministry?
In May 2016, ISKCON’s National Council appointed HG Krishnarupa devi dasi (ACBSP) as the Women’s Representative on the National Council for ISKCON Australia. In May 2017, the title was amended to Women’s Minister, ISKCON Australia. From there, in order to better serve the interests of Vaishnavis in Australia, it was agreed that local Women’s Representative/s would be appointed by the various Temple Presidents, in discussion and collaboration with the Women’s Minister - Krishnarupa devi dasi.
AIM OF THE VAISHNAVI MINISTRY
The Vaishnavi Ministry aims to provide local Women’s Representative/s in every Temple throughout Australia, who work in confidence with HG Krishnarupa devi dasi, to help develop programs and initiatives that support Vaishnavis in their local centres.
The Women’s Representative/s can provide support and relevant information about Domestic & Family Violence. The Women’s Representative/s can support Vaishnavis to give Srimad Bhagavatam Class and to Lead Study/Reading Groups, encouraging Vaishnavi Leadership and initiatives wherever possible.
