"Everywhere, wherever we have got our center, a varnasrama college should be established..." (Srila Prabhupada, Vrindavan, March 12, 1974
How could we go about establishing a varnasrama college in our movement today?
In this book, we examine Prabhupada's instructions, on varnasrama and varnasrama college, for understanding and for application in the real world of today, uncovering surprising insights - both personal and social - in the process.
Many devotees think of varnasrama as farms, but there is so much more to it. First we must understand the duties and qualities of each varna, and the proper way the varnas relate to one another. That alone is a subject matter worthy of deep study, and only after understanding the duties and qualities can we explore the almost unlimited varieties of skills one can choose to learn in each varna.
This book examines the duties, qualities and relationships, the possible structure for a college, and finally the resources for varna skills.
