Hare Kristos: comparison between religiosity of adherents to Krishna Consiousness Community and Catholics
Aleš Črnič
Sažetak
The article analyses the differences in intensity of religious practices of Slovenian adherents to Hare Krishna and Catholics. Furthermore, it measures their influence on everyday life of believers. It uses the data of the first systematic case study research of any new religious movement in Slovenia and compares them with some results of international surveys Aufbruch 1997 and ISSP 1998. The findings prove that Krishna adherents are considerably more active in their religious activities than Catholics and quite orthodox when it comes to applying religious rules in everyday life. But contrary to popular belief, it does not lead to noticeable shutting off or isolation of the Krishna community from the society, nor to higher than average conservatism of its members.
