In May 1971, he emigrated to Australia where, on the second day of his arrival, he met the members of the newly emerging Krishna Consciousness movement. He was duly accepted as an initiated disciple by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on April 9th, 1972 in Sydney.<br \/>\nIn August 1975, he moved to the newly opened ISKCON Krishna Balarama temple in Vrndavan U.P. India, where he served as temple commander. In November of the same year, he joined A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada\u2019s personal entourage, remaining as His Divine Grace\u2019s servant for 16 months. In March of 1977, Srila Prabhupada appointed him ISKCON\u2019s Governing Body Commissioner for Australia, New Zealand and Indonesia, a service he performed for over 7 years. During that period, he oversaw the growth of the ISKCON society in the South Seas from 4 temple and ashrams, to 17, including 4 farming communities, 2 schools and several restaurants. He was also instrumental in establishing branches of the<br \/>\nBhaktivedanta Book Trust in Australia and Indonesia.<br \/>\nIn 1986, he began the work of transforming the diary he kept while traveling with Srila Prabhupada into a book, or rather a series of books. In 1990, he moved to America and worked as publisher for Back To Godhead magazine, the Krishna<br \/>\nconsciousness movement\u2019s spiritual periodical, for a year.<br \/>\nHe lives at ISKCON World Head Quarters, in Mayapur W.B. India, near Kolkata, with his wife and daughter where he continues to publish his memories of being with Srila Prabhupada. He is currently the director of the Bhaktivedanta Reseach Center in Kolkata an academic resource of Gaudiya Vaisnavism and an archive library of ancient vaisnava text. These ancient texts are being both digitized and preserved in the original state.<br \/>\nWatch it here: <a href=\"https:\/\/is.gd\/HZpTzc\">https:\/\/is.gd\/HZpTzc<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/64.media.tumblr.com\/f210eb97ba90bbbebf80c443453fe099\/2e08a80914ab312c-4b\/s500x750\/50c8a6beca8e89bdf59386efa934d69b89383153.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>By Hari Sauri Das.
