This makes me so happy. Women need to be able to share their love of God with potential disciples just as men. Hare Krishna

He tenido siksa gurús excelentes que son mujeres. Devotos sinceras que algún día podrían desempeñar esa tarea de ser profesores entregados a tiempo completo.

Following the guidance of Srila Rupa Gosvami, please uncover Bhakti Devi from the influence of karma (varnasrama) thus allowing Her full potency to continue to flood the world with the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu freed from material, bodily designations.

Duhkhahantri-devi dasi (acbsp72ny) Let's walk the talk. We are not these bodies.

A fair and balanced way to introduce Vaisnavi diksa gurus in ISKCON, per Srila Prabhupada's desire.

Let's bridge the gap between what we preach and what we practice!

Beyond even Jāhnavī Devī, there are several female gurvīs (gurus in feminine gendered Sanskrit) in our dīkṣā lineage. No reason to do any differently now!
