| Summary: | The article focuses on the Hare Krishna members in Belgium. The movement owns a temple on the outskirts of a provincial city in the south of the country. Fieldwork was carried out among the temple residents' (at Radhadesh, the Petite Somme'), those who live in its vicinity, the congregationalists' in the local centres, and those who are on the way of being initiated. The article focuses on the development members undergo from adepts' to devotees', that is from congregationalists' to becoming full-time temple residents' in Radhadesh. The question we address concerns the process of members' growth in Krishna consciousness and sacredness. |
