Why do we need a World Vaisnava Association?

As Century 21 approaches, it is a very happy reality that many Vaisnava Acaryas, sannyasis and other devotees have come forward making an unified effort to revive the true spirit of the Visva-Vaisnav-Raj-Sabha (World Vaisnava Association).

Let us dwell for a moment on the many advantages such an association has to offer to all of us. After careful consideration, we will realize that the Association envisioned by Srila Jiva Goswami and our founding fathers is actually a necessity from many angles of vision. We cannot really go on well without it. Here are a few points to highlight this thesis.

While these traditions have numerous important sanctuaries across India and the diaspora, the WVA distinguishes itself by being the first to actively work for the collective benefit of all. There is much more that can and should be done in this regard.
