Namarupa Issue 25-Winter 2019

Shyamasundar das beautifully narrates major moments in spiritual and material history in his series of books, Chasing Rhinos with the Swami, Volumes 1&2. He invites readers on the ride of his life, behind the scenes to the first words Srila Prabhupada spoke to John Lennon, his thoughts on the moon “landing’ and how Krishna would pierce the Iron Curtain. As A.C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada’s personal secretary, Shyamasundar das circled the globe with the Swami spreading Krishna Consciousness throughout North America, Europe, Russia, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, India, and more. This issue of Namarupa is composed of book excerpts from the Chasing Rhinos Series, Volumes 1 & 2 and Shyamasundar das’s commentary on the excerpts.
