Bhagavad Gita

"I would identify myself primarily as a Vaishnava, which means servant of Vishnu or God, secondarily as a family man and thirdly as a writer. The first role began in 1979 when I came across the Krishna movement and dived headlong into it, as was the style back in those days, when many of us were searching for ourselves rather than a worldly career. I can report that I am still looking, but I am hopefully closer now than I was then. My second role as a family man began in 1985 when I met my good wife Chintamani, with whom I have had three beautiful children, Madhva, Radhika and Janaki. I am now retired from the day job and will hopefully be able to produce a few more titles before my appointment with God.

You can hear more from me over on my website, where I will publish my occasional musings and news of my activities. You can also subscribe to my newsletter, which appears every blue moon. Hare Krishna"
