Sanga 13

Welcome to Episode 13 of the Krishna.com Sanga podcast.

In this episode, Nagaraja reads "A Life of Ideal Service" from the March / April 2007 issue of Back to Godhead magazine. This is an obituary article about the life of His Holiness Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami, a life-long devotee of Krishna who recently passed away. During his lifetime, he spread Krishna consciousness around the world, especially in his home state of Manipur, India. He directed the Bhaktivedanta Institute to further the scientific study of the soul. And he organized two world congresses for the Synthesis of Science and Religion, attended by scientists, nobel laureates and religious leaders including His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

In news from our web gift store, Loka talks about some of the items we've received from India: musical instruments like tablas and mrdangas, and new women's clothing.
