When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?

Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.

Despite his advanced age, his frail health, and his hectic preaching tours and powerful and pure preaching, Maharaj is still accessible to everyone, even the little child who comes to play at the temple ground. He still insists on washing his own clothes, and cooking his own meals. To many devotees around the world, whether they are his disciples or not, Maharaj is still the kind loving spiritual father that we all can turn to inspire us in our moments of spiritual struggle, and guide us in this age of quarrel and strife. Truly, H.H Mahavishnu Gosvami is a beacon of light in a darkened world.
