In the port of Calcutta on August 13, 1965, carrying only a small suitcase, an umbrella, and a bag of dry cereal, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, as he was known at that time, climbed up the steep gangway onto a cargo ship named the Jaladuta.
This voyage marked the beginning of one of the most far-reaching religious movements of our time. But that thirty-five day voyage almost resulted in tragedy. Find out about the crisis of body and spirit that could have changed history for the worse.
Hardbound, 103 pages, 8 color and 20 B&W plates, reproductions of many documents and letters, 9.75″ x 10.25″.

Just as a note – I wanted to mention that years ago I wrote Nagaraja prabhu at BTG about a picture (a different one than this) that was published (in the BTG) showing Srila Prabhupada with Krsna. Although I had no reference from Srila Prabhupada or scripture as to whether this was bonafide or not, I felt it improper. Brahmananda prabhu also saw that picture and told Nagaraja prabhu that Srila Prabhupada told him we should not show him with Krsna. His comment was then published in the following BTG. Hare Krsna.
