Suresh,
That way ISKCON is good for the white worshippers. Some White Hindus can help there.

Many times, I've tried to explain to people that Christians are not as compassionate as they pretend to be, and their so-called love is hatred in disguise. I've explained this with numerous instances, citing from Teresa's dubious distinction to North East to Inquisitions to what else not.
Yet, all I've recd. from Hindus so far has been verbal abuse, NO understanding whatsoever. It becomes frustrating after a certain point. I can't speak for North India, but at least Hindus here have developed such a terrible complex vis-a-vis westerners (obviously due to skin color) that they regard anything from the west as god sent. It's evidently easy to convert such people, which is why Christians are succeeding here.
You won't believe it, but when I attended one of the satsangs, even scholars giving lectures on Gita were praising St. Thomas or whoever!
