Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.
Hello. I am a fellow devotee. I like to study Sanskrit language and scripture. I like to listen to the Amala Bhakta das narrations of Srila Prabupada's translations of Srimad-Bhagavatam, Bhagavad-gita, and others too. I am also studying the Chinese translation of Bhagavad-gita along with the Sanskrit as translated by ISKCON devotees. Its fascinating! I also like to study Tai Chi. I am openminded to all religions as long as they focus on developing good qualities in their followers.
What are your expectations from this community?
Good prasadam(spiritualized food offered to the Lord),
Good devotional music, Good fellowship, Good Scripture classes, Good Hare Krisna Holidays celebrations,Good spiritual guidance, happiness, humility, forgiveness, peace, devotional servce, charity(such as Food for Life), modesty, chastity,etc.
Describe any specific service you would love to offer to Lord Krishna & His devotees?
Devotional music, charity work, spiritual artwork, etc.
I also like heavy metal music and I play electric guitar and sing,
maybe I can use that in service of Sri Sri Radha-Krishna!
