How do religious groups reinvent themselves in order to attract new audiences? How do they rebrand their messages and recast their rituals in order to make their followers more diverse?
In Branding Bhakti, Nicole Karapanagiotis considers the new branding of the Hare Krishna Movement, or the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Known primarily for their orange robes, shaved heads, ecstatic dancing on the streets, and exuberant Hindu-style temple worship, many contemporary ISKCON groups are radically reinventing their public presentation and their style of worship in order to attract a global audience to their movement. Karapanagiotis explores their innovative and complex approaches in both the United States and India by following three new ISKCON brands aimed at gathering new followers. Each is led by a world-renowned ISKCON guru and his global disciples, and each is promoted through a mix of digital and social media and the construction of an innovative "worship-scape." These new spaces trade ISKCON's traditional temples for corporate work-life balance programs, posh yoga studios, urban spiritual lounges, edgy mantra clubs/lofts, and rural meditative retreat facilities.
Branding Bhakti not only investigates the methods the ISKCON movement uses to position itself for growth but also highlights devotees' painful and complicated struggles as they work to transform their shrinking, sectarian movement into one with global religious appeal.

Описание: This is a systematic description of how bhakti-yoga works, the practice and philosophy of it, and how to become successful on this spiritual path. Bhakti-yoga is the process that can take a person beyond mere faith and give direct experience of the spiritual strata and one's real spiritual identity, beyond the body, and to the joy that is on that plane of consciousness. It is the spiritual process that is especially recommended for these difficult times. Herein is a revelation that such a realization and experience is not only possible, but leads us to taste the greatest happiness when the soul finally reconnects to its natural condition and joyful disposition. It is like finding the home you have been looking for all your life. And now, at long last, you can reach the ultimate platform of realization, peace, comfort, bliss, and connection with Divine Love. The hankering for this has motivated all of us to seek out our real spiritual nature for many lifetimes, and now upon attaining this knowledge we have found our real destiny. Some of the additional topics within include: * What is so special about bhakti-yoga, the universal path. * Mantra-yoga, the importance of it in this day and age. * How to make sure you have a genuine guru. * Feeling ecstatic reciprocation from the Lord. * Beginning to understand and perceive God. * How the Lord reveals Himself to His devotee. * Having your own realizations of the highest levels of spiritual truth. * Manifesting your spiritual identity. * And ultimately attaining freedom from material existence and entering the spiritual world. This book is based on and includes numerous quotes and references from the Vedic literature to authorize the knowledge that is presented within.
