About the evening
Join us for an evening of spiritual wisdom, focusing on the glories of the Srimad-Bhagavatam. Of the innumerable collections of spiritual teachings found in Vedic literature, Srimad-Bhagavatam is considered the topmost. Vedic literature is sometimes said to be a “desire tree,” a tree that can yield whatever one might desire, and of that tree the Srimad-Bhagavatam is said to be the ripe and most relishable fruit.

About the speaker

From an early age he received training in devotional scriptures, philosophy and Sanskrit language. Thus, he had first-hand experience of Vaishnava tradition and culture as part of his upbringing. He met ISKCON devotees in 1993 and has been associated with ISKCON ever since. Srimad-Bhagavatam is his favourite literary work and he loves to enthusiastically share what he has learnt from guru, sadhus and shastras. His other interests are in Children’s Education, Sanskrit Aesthetics, Paninian Grammar, Linguistics and Philosophy of Science. He lives in North West London with his wife and two children.
