"Sadhana for Parenting in Krishna Consciousness"
Involving children in regular sadhana as part of family and temple life, this workshop considers obstacles and useful practices. (note: this seminar is similar to The Vocation of Teaching in Krishna Consciousness, Part II: Inspired for Life, except that it is geared toward the specific needs of parents and their daily practice of spiritual life.)
