What is ISKCON's basic philosophy?

Question: What is Iskcon's basic philosophy? Answer: The Vedas teach us that our real identity is spiritual. All living beings in this world are souls identifying with the bodies they inhabit. Though we souls are tiny and God is infinite, like Him we are by nature eternal, full of happiness and full of knowledge. Though we belong to God, Krishna, in the spiritual world, we must stay in the material world until our pure love for Him awakens and we lose all desire to try to enjoy separately from Him. We must understand the pitfalls of living in the material world. Sensual pleasure is temporary and fleeting. We suffer from old age, disease and eventually die. The reactions to our activities or karma, compel us to take repeated births in various species. Enlightenment involves coming in contact with a realized soul or guru, who can teach us how to purify our consciousness and reestablish our love and service attitude for God. In the current age, the easiest method of purification is to chant the holy names of God, the Hare Krishna mantra, in the association of like-minded spiritual seekers or devotees of Krishna.
