Dangers in India and Ukraine

Advisory Notice
Devotees and friends of ISKCON are advised to take extra precaution in planning visits to holy places in India, taking all possible steps to ensure the safety of themselves, their families, and their traveling
companions.

We particularly advise pilgrims to take caution when visiting isolated holy places in the mountainous regions in India including Badrinath, Kedarnath, Muktinath, Gangotri and Yamunotri. This is especially true for new members and visitors to India, and for devotees organizing tours for others.
Anyone who chooses to visit these places should do so only after fully deliberating upon the risks involved. India is full of spiritual havens connected with the pastimes of Lord Krishna, Lord Caitanya, and the Lord's many avatars and devotees. Visits to most of these tirthas are relatively safe; some are less so. 
Thus, remembering Srila Prabhupada's loving words "to not take unnecessary risks," we strongly advise that ISKCON members apply extra care and caution while visiting any of these holy places, and we pray always for your safety.
