Krishna Ksetra Swami: Prof. Ravi M. Gupta poses holding the book we co-authored: The Bhāgavata Purāṇa: Selected Readings. This is at the recent American Academy of Religion annual conference in Denver (a conference which some 8000 members attend). This photo is at the Columbia University Press booth, one of ca. 200 publishers of academic books on religion who display their books at the conference. What’s interesting is that Columbia has featured our book, setting a stack of them out in front. The note in front of the stack of our books says “Free with examination copy request”, which means the scholars were invited to take a copy of the book free if they fill out a form which encourages them to consider using the book in one of the courses they teach, which means their students would be required to purchase the book.
