The recently set up ISKM center at Calcutta is making progressive strides in spreading the saṅkīrtana mission of Lord Caitanya. The temple there had a recent program with a local nāmahaṭṭa group and convinced 20 devotees to accept Śrīla Prabhupāda as the real dīkṣā (initiating) guru. Many also took some copies of the IA77 position paper in Bengali to learn more about the ṛtvik system.
