When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?
In 1988, Coimbatore. A devotee came to my shop (electrical shop) to distribute books and i bought one Bhagavat Gita. In that book there was one bit notice about the temple programs and an invitation for the Sunday program. I was very much curious to see the 4:30 am mangal arati. So did go to the temple early morning after a couple of weeks. And got the blessings of the deities and the devotees. From there onwards I continue to be in ISKCON till now.
