Real nice down to earth guy named Dave from London who moved to the states a few years ago and now lives in the alphabet city area of Manhattan. He grew up as a Catholic but lost interest and became disappointed with Catholicism because it didn’t give him the answers he was looking for. About eight years ago he started practicing yoga and became interested in transcendental meditation TM where he received some Sanskrit mantras to chant and meditate on. He tried TM for a while but then became disheartened and gave it up. He began looking for other mantras to chant on YouTube and found the “Hare Krishna” Maha mantra and began chanting it that same night. The next day he met a devotee who distributed a “Bhagavad Gita as it is” to him and he’s been reading it daily with great appreciation. Today he met me and I showed him our set and he wanted to get it right away. He’s been looking for devotee association and a temple to visit so I invited him to our Sunday feast program.
