Description

Swami in a Strange Land: How Krishna Came to the West is an intimate biography that explores the life and teachings of A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. In 1965, a seventy-year-old man embarked on a journey from India to America with little more than a few books and pennies in his pocket. He landed in New York at the height of the counterculture movement of the '60s and went on to spark a global spiritual renaissance that transformed millions of lives. Through this narrative, Joshua M. Greene sheds light on why cultural icons such as George Harrison and Allen Ginsberg incorporated Prabhupada's teachings into their lives, and how his message of love and devotion continues to inspire people around the world today.
