How can we worship Shri Krishna at home? Is it enough to install an idol, or are there other rituals that are mandatory?

The most important thing here is faith , love and devotional service. Shri Krishna is not someone whose hell bent on my way or the highway or an extremely strict disciplinary master or a psychopath. In whatever mood and approach one does, he or she or they will come to me thus Shri Krishna does not care about our measly offerings and stinking bodies even if we shower a billion times in the Ganges River. What wins him over is your faith, love and devotional service. And also with how you treat others.. if you see that Shri Krishna is in all beings , then love flows naturally and you will feel naturally blessed.

But. . . to be honest with you , a lot of Vaishnavas in India and South East Asia that I know personally , at home cooks with onion, garlic, carrots . . . so yeah . . . they only avoid eggs, meat, cigarettes, alcohol and illicit sex..

4. and no gambling (pretty obvious as this is additive forming)

Where's the Civil War everyone on the left said would happen?

3. no intoxication (no tea, no coffee, no chocolates, no alcohol , no narcotics and no cigarettes),

I’m a 25 year old teacher teaching at boys school & I have colleagues younger than me. I caught one of my students telling her he wanted her as his teacher instead & it hurt my feelings. They compliment her a lot. It makes me jealous. What do I do?

Meditate and do japa and feel the immense blessings Shri Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi brings forth. May Lord Shri Krishna and Shri Radhe blesses you.

1. no meat-eating (including onion, garlic, eggs, mushrooms, carrots?),

Om Shri Krishnaya Namaha ,

2. no illicit sex (only for serious marriage, procreation and love; not for one night stands),

Why do American conservatives say that America is a constitutional republic and not a democracy? Would it not make sense to call America a constitutional republican democracy?

So worship away in happiness and gladness, learn how to do the simple panchoupachara puja.

4. Offer Dheepam ( one edible desi ghee oil lamp and one pure edible sesame oil lamp )

This is just my own opinion.

What is your opinion? I am 150-152 and I feel short. I’m 15 years old. I feel like this makes me look like a baby and ugly on most clothes.

2. Offer Pushpham ( fresh fragrant flowers such as jasmine and red roses )

In my opinion , anyone can worship Shri Maha Vishnu ( Naaraayana ) and Shri Lakshmi Devi. To gatekeep and to prevent others from worship and bhakthi is nonsensical. Shri Maha Vishnu Naaraayana and Shri Lakshmi Devi are not so uptight as us humans. If you look carefully at the images and artwork of Shri Maha Vishnu , he embodies all opulences , beauty, grace and powers. He is also a flamboyant archtype . . not as rigid as what others made him out to be.
