When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?
In 2006 my brother Vishwajith Bhadrashetty joined Hare Krishna movement . In 2007 he inspired me to join .I denied.Then he asked me questions that challenged my intelligence .My brother made me listen to HG Radhey Shyam prabhu's lecture . I joined in 2009. I started believing existence of god through hearing to HG Radhey Shyam prabhu,HG Gauranga prabhu whose lectures and Journey home book led me to take shelter of my guru His Holiness Radhanath Swami maharaj.
Name the nearest or most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.

Nitya Navina Mataji,Vrundavan Prabhu,Devakinandan Prabhu,Gundicha mataji,Madhupati prabhu, Govinda Nandini mataji
Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.
I am very much inspired by HH B.T Swami's teachings and HH Radhanath Swami maharaj . I can not let pass day without reading their books or hearing their lectures. Based on their teachings only I have made my life's motto as to practice humility,to focus more on my internal purification . Some of my experiences while practicing humility,I get to see so much of dirt in me and see my ego hidden deep within me,they start coming out, which help me to become more humble and take shelter of Guru and Krishna.
I love to study philosophy scrutinizingly and go as deep as possible.My only satisfaction lies in pleasing guru and Krishna.
