Food is offered and the statues washed is rose water, honey etc. Statues are not seen as idols but material incarnations of the deity.
Men are separate from women and children in the service.
During the initiation period of 6 months, the contact is instructed on how to develop Krishna consciousness. To realise we are not our bodies. Our bodies are a temporary manifestation of the energy of Krsna. Our souls are a part of Krsna awaiting reunion with him. No illicit sex.
