Krishna Dasa’s Review of Universalist Radha-Krishnaism

Monday, August 8, 2011 Review of Steve Bohlert’s Universalist Radha-Krishnaism There are books which are the result of a life-long engagement with a subject.

A Review of Universalist Radha-Krishnaism by Daniel Cooper Clark

Daniel Cooper Clark is one of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami’s original New York disciples. We met at the 26 Second Avenue temple in January 1968 when I visited there from my Santa Fe temple.

A Post-modern Map of Faith

The time has finally come for creation of a new map. The world has changed and is constantly changing. Long gone are the times of desert prophets, runaway princes seeking deliverance, heroes of the impossible, gods and goddesses...

See Beyond the Veil

As a life long seeker myself, open to both Eastern and Western religious ideas, I consider this book a portal to enlightenment. Bohlert leads the reader up a spiral staircase to the light, winding through the Christian and Hindu faiths as we ascend. – Nori Muster This book comes as a cooling breeze on a hot day. It offers a glimpse into an eternal world of love that actually surrounds us at all times....
