Might that have been the first time you understood the label on your soap? :-)

How have you been keeping yourself safe from the (misguided) arms of the law?

How different is it from one community to another? Do they function from the same script, or all they all basically doing their own thing? Also, how did the community you were in support itself?

btw, many years ago I used to visit the ashram in Chicago on Sundays for the free food. If you were willing to put up with the proselytizing, that food was delicious!!

It sounds like there are many Hare Krishna communities. Are they affiliated somehow, or do they function independently?
