What is Hare Krishna Movement

• The Hare Krishna movement is a branch of
  Hinduism, formally known as Gaudiya Vaishnavism.
  Its name comes from its chant Hare Krishna
  which devotees repeat over and over. It was
  started in the 16th century by Sri Chaitanya of
  Bengal (1486-1533). He emphasized the worship of
  Krishna and believed that chanting the names of
  God was so powerful that in addition to one's own
  meditation on them, they should also be chanted
  in the streets for the benefit of all.

How does the Hare Krishna movement differ from
other strains of Hinduism?

• Devotees of the Hare Krishna movement consider
  themselves monotheistic. According to the sacred
  texts, Bhagavad Gita and Bhagvat Purana, Krishna
  is the supreme God, who oversees millions of
  demigods who are seen as administrators of the
  universal affairs. These demigods are needed to
  run creation. They have certain roles, but just
  as the secretary of state reports to the
  president these demigods serve at the pleasure
  of Krishna. Krishna is often accompanied by
  Radharani, the female aspect or counterpart of
  Krishna.

Reincarnation and karma what are those about?

• In Hinduism, karma what a person deserves for
  his past acts proceeds not only from what he
  has done in the present life but from past lives
  as well. According to Hindu philosophy, human
  beings are not always reborn as human beings.
  Some are, but others are promoted to still higher
  forms, forms beyond our present experience, and
  others are degraded to lower species. One's
  future status depends on whether one lives in
  harmony with nature's laws or violates them. Only
  human beings can gain freedom from the cycle of
  birth and death.

Why don't Hare Krishna Devotees eat meat?

• Hindus believe that animals are children of
  Krishna, created by God with a soul. Therefore,
  to eat an animal is an affront to God. Moreover,
  it's bad for your consciousness Because the
  slaughter of animals is violent, when you eat
  meat, fish or fowl, you are subjecting yourself
  to more violent thoughts and, perhaps, violent
  behavior. In Hinduism, cooking is intertwined
  with spirituality. Hare Krishna Devotees believe
  they are cooking for the pleasure of God. They
  never sample the food they are cooking, since it
  must be offered to Krishna first.
