The Prabhupada Vani Reseach Academy is establishing a new website named “Vanipedia” ([vanipedia.org|vanipedia.org]). It will be launched at Gaura Purnima 2008.

Vanipedia will not only feature all Srila Prabhupada’s teachings but also compilations on various subjects that he discussed in his books, lectures, letters, and conversations.

These compilations will be built in a section called Vaniquotes and once a specific subject is thoroughly researched and developed it will be published as a “Vanibook” in the section “Vanibooks”. The result will be a fantastic resource and shelter to better faciltate the devotees in the pursuance of both their individual spiritual lives and their respective services.

However, to make all these research activities and compilations relevant for you, we would be very interested to hear which subjects in Srila Prabhupada’s teachings you think need to be better understood, both in devotees’ personal lives and in the Hare Krishna movement as a whole.

We would, therefore, be most grateful if you would kindly take a few moments to answer the three questions below.(*)

Please send your answers to me personally at [email protected]

Thank you very much for your time. With kind regards and appreciation,

Your servants at Vanipedia

You can answer these questions briefly with one word or give more extended answers if you prefer. You can also give the same answer to more than one question. And if you want, you can add more than three subjects to each question. All replies are confidential. However, we do intend to publish statistics of how many persons consider the same subjects to be important.
