Some important guidelines:

  1. Lots of friendly, warm, on-going relationships with devotees who genuinely care about the new contacts' spiritual progress.
  2. No mention of the regulative principles until the person is well-acquainted with devotees and Krishna Conscious philosophy.
  3. No esoteric ISKCON terminology which may be useful among devotees but would cloud or confuse relationships with persons who are new to Krsna Consciousness.
  4. Best to engage mostly young devotee preachers, who are already naturally stepping forward in their lives, to encourage young people gently toward Krishna.
