SUMMARY:‘50 years at a glance’ with Shyamasundara Das
DESCRIPTION:Sunday 4 June 2023 – Sri Krishna Haveli\n\nReflections on 50 years of Bhaktivedanta Manor with one of the pioneers of the Hare Krishna movement in the UK. \nBio of Shyamasundara Das \nI was born in the body of Samuel Speerstra\, in Salem\, Oregon in May\,1942. From early childhood I thrived on adventure and risk. After graduating from Reed College in 1965\, I met Bhaktivedanta Swami in San Francisco in January 1967\, and immediately became his disciple Shyamasundar Das. The Swami wed me to my girlfriend Melanie (Malati Devi Dasi) in a smoke-filled storefront in Haight-Ashbury we called the Radha-Krishna Temple. \nIn 1968\, to please Swamiji\, I traveled with five chosen devotees to London. There\, we witnessed firsthand Krishna’s magic display; we befriended the Beatles and\, courtesy of Apple Records\, spread Hare Krishna Mantra around the world. In October 1970\, the Swami took twenty of his Western disciples to India\, and together-as Prabhupad and his Dancing White Elephants–we barnstormed the country. In June 1971\, Prabhupad accepted me as his Personal Secretary. I was by Prabhupad’s side\, day and night\, in Europe\, USA\, Africa\, Asia\, Australia-even behind Brezhnev’s Iron Curtain. I never saw him sleep\, I never saw him make an error of any kind. How did I get this lucky\, to observe close-up the life of the Perfect Person? Srila Prabhupad\, the Magic Man himself! \nPlease note: This event will be not be broadcast live \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Frequently asked questions\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo I need a ticket to attend?\n\n\n\nNo ticket is required. Free for all to attend. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWill there be parking available?\n\n\n\nYes.
