Krishna Consciousness Parts 1 & 2

Description
I am just about done with digitizing these old cassette copies of episodes from the ancient past. I have no honest idea as to the air dates of these. I suspect we're talking about the very early years of the new century. Sometime between 2000-05? Probably. The 1st part is a conversation with Srivas Das, one of the early pioneers of the Hare Krishna movement in Ghana & other African countries. Here we discuss the very basics of Vaishnavism, the branch of Hinduism that Krishna devotees represents. By the way, the Hare Krishna movement is explored in more detail in Episode 35 & 90. The 2nd part features Naraharidev Das. This one has a distinct local flavor, as our guest had recently moved to Grand Rapids and hoped to establish a center here. That never materialized, but the ashrams in the Detroit area occasionally send people here to conduct programs. Please ignore any phone numbers given.
