'Aindra: Kirtan Revolution' Book Launch
2023-04-16 16:15 - 19:00 | Sri Krishna Haveli, Hilfield Lane, Watford, WD258EZ, United Kingdom
Sunday 16 April 2023 | Sri Krishna Haveli

In the last 15 years, Kirtan has taken ISKCON by storm. There has been a revolution! Aindra Prabhu was perhaps one of the main reasons for this revolution. Who is AIndra Prabhu really though? This new book, ‘Aindra – Kirtan Revolution’, takes us on a journey through his formative years as a soul searching musician surviving on 3 figs a day, to finding the Kirtan Party, creating a master piece of a moving temple built by hand, starting the 24 hour Kirtan in Vrindavan, being forced to record his now famous Kirtans and ultimately going very deep into the esoteric nature of Vraja Bhakti via Krishna Nama.
A prominent feature of this book is how He gained internal realisation of his eternal relationship with Sri Radha Krishna, by always remaining loyal to Srila Prabhupada and ISKCON.
Join us as we launch the book, and celebrate the life of Aindra Prabhu with kirtan, words of offerings, and prasadam.

‘50 years at a glance’ with Shyamasundara Das
2023-06-04 17:30 - 19:00 | Sri Krishna Haveli, Hilfield Lane, Watford, WD258EZ, United Kingdom
Sunday 4 June 2023 – Sri Krishna Haveli

Reflections on 50 years of Bhaktivedanta Manor with one of the pioneers of the Hare Krishna movement in the UK.
Bio of Shyamasundara Das
I 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.
In 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!
