Hare Krishna movement and sexual orientation >From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Hare Krishna and Homosexuality) Hare Krishna views of homosexuality, and especially the view of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) towards LGBT issues, are generally typical of most fundamentalist religious movements. Nevertheless, same-sex relations and gender variance have been represented within Hinduism from Vedic times through to the present day, in rituals, law books, mythical narratives, commentaries, paintings, and sculpture. The extent to which these representations embrace or reject homosexuality has been disputed within the religion as well as outside of it. The Hare Krishna movement, as a distinct Hindu sect, and especially ISKCON, generally view all sex and sexuality (even heterosexual sex within the context of marriage) as being "illicit" unless it is done with the intention of bringing Krishna Conscious children into the world.[1] The focus of one's life is supposed to be geared towards spirituality and not sexuality. Nevertheless, there have been a number of LGBT people involved in the Hare Krishna movement over the years. snip
