How can we worship Shri Krishna at home? Is it enough to install an idol, or are there other rituals that are mandatory?

begin with the simple and basic 4 Regulative Principles set out by

4. Offer Dheepam ( one edible desi ghee oil lamp and one pure edible sesame oil lamp )

But. . . to be honest with you , a lot of Vaishnavas in India and South East Asia that I know personally , at home cooks with onion, garlic, carrots . . . so yeah . . . they only avoid eggs, meat, cigarettes, alcohol and illicit sex..

Do you believe that Jesus was God on Earth?

This is just my own opinion.

5. Offer Naivedhyam ( food and drink offerings )

Dhoopam samarpayami

What might be the social consequences of an ethnic as opposed to a civic conception of the nation?

But if you are serious about following a spiritual path and journey ;

Gandham samarpayami

the Gaudiya Vaishnavas or in general by all Vaishnavas ;

According to the Gita, how do I abandon fruits of my karma? Should I donate my whole salary and stay hungry?

In my opinion , anyone can worship Shri Maha Vishnu ( Naaraayana ) and Shri Lakshmi Devi. To gatekeep and to prevent others from worship and bhakthi is nonsensical. Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi are not so uptight as us humans. If you look carefully at the images and artwork of Shri Maha Vishnu , he embodies all opulences , beauty, grace and powers. He is also a flamboyant archtype . . not as rigid as what others made him out to be.

So worship away in happiness and gladness, learn how to do the simple panchoupachara puja.

Dheepam samarpayami

How mentally ill are Republicans who think Trump is mentally sane? He literally said immigrants eat pets.

Meditate and do japa and feel the immense blessings Shri Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi brings forth. May Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radhe blesses you.

2. Offer Pushpham ( fresh fragrant flowers such as jasmine and red roses )

1. no meat-eating (including onion, garlic, eggs, mushrooms, carrots?),

Why don't younger men like older women?

Om Shri Krishnaya Namaha ,

Pushpham samarpayami

The most important thing here is faith , love and devotional service. Shri Krishna is not someone whose hell bent on my way or the highway or an extremely strict disciplinary master or a psychopath. In whatever mood and approach one does, he or she or they will come to me thus Shri Krishna does not care about our measly offerings and stinking bodies even if we shower a billion times in the Ganges River. What wins him over is your faith, love and devotional service. And also with how you treat others.. if you see that Shri Krishna is in all beings , then love flows naturally and you will feel naturally blessed.

Can I have a comfortable life as a nurse in Sweden? Can I buy a house and not worry about the cost of living?

1. Offer Gandham ( sandalwood paste to the picture of statue )

3. no intoxication (no tea, no coffee, no chocolates, no alcohol , no narcotics and no cigarettes),

3. Offer Sugandham Dhoopam ( incense cone known as dhupa or incense stick known as agarbatti )

If you’re an atheist, what would be your motive in spreading atheism, and why would you care what others believe?

Naivedhyam samarpayami

4. and no gambling (pretty obvious as this is additive forming)

Jai Hind, Jai Shri Raam , Jai Shri Krishna.

What does it mean when I have a dream where my friend died? I had this dream last night where one of my friends died in a shootout and I woke up crying.

2. no illicit sex (only for serious marriage, procreation and love; not for one night stands),
