Let me begin by offering my obeisances to my Prabhuji, Sri Lalita Prasad Thakur, his father and guru, Sri Bhaktivinode Thakur and all those who led me on my spiritual path.

I am able to be a vaishnava among vaishnavas, a Christian among Christians, etc. I am basically an eccelectic universalist and don’t get hung up […]
My wife and I are quite comfortable living on our land for the past few weeks. Occasionally, several days of rain are a little trying, but all in all we love it. Friday, we engaged a designer to start work on our house. We will be owner builders and hope to be in it by […]
