ISKCON

 Disciple  Course  
(A  mandatory  course  for  all  initiated  and  aspiring  devotees)  
 

The ISKCON Disciple Course is a training program which

deepens devotees understanding of guru-tattva and guru-
padasraya within the multiple guru environment of ISKCON.
Designed primarily for new devotees preparing to take initiation
in ISKCON, the course is also recommended for initiated
devotees, preachers councilors and educators in ISKCON. The
course was developed under the direction of the Guru Services
Committee, with the combined efforts of leading educators in
ISKCON. The course is based on the teachings of Srila
Prabhupäda and current ISKCON Law and gives reference to
the writings from the broader Gaudiya-Vaishnava tradition.
The course includes presentations, interactive workshops and
assessment exercises.
