When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?
In high school- (completely bewildered) i came upon Prabhupada's book, "The Science of Self-Realization." SAVING me from the slaughter house.. and really giving me insight, of which i felt i had ALWAYS KNOWN on the true nature of the soul. Years later i met a travelling sankirtana devotee (Brigupadi prabhu) who gave me Bhagavad-Gita as it is, and the veda base. And after getting deeper into the movements works i really got a taste for just how deep this knowledge goes.. all the way to the root, stemming from even. Hare Krsna.
