  • Killing for Krishna
    Sulochan dasa (Steven Bryant) (ACBSP) (1952-1986) Memorial Service on the 32nd Anniversary of his death Cheviot Hills Park, Los Angeles (May 22, 2018) Note: The statements and philosophies promoted in the following tributes may not necessarily be those of the organizers of this memorial service, but we believe we must allow devotees to express their sentiments and realizations even if we may disagree with their conclusions. TRIBUTES Henry Doktorski, author of Killing For Krishna. My dear assembled Vaishnavas: Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. My name is Henry Doktorski; I am a former resident of New Vrindaban and a former disciple of Kirtanananda Swami. Some of my friends know me by my initiated name: Hrishikesh dasa. I am the author of a book—Killing For Krishna: The Danger of Deranged Devotion—which recounts the unfortunate events which preceded Sulochan’s murder, the murder itself, and its aftermath and repercussions. Prabhus and Matajis, thank you for attending this memorial service for Sulochan prabhu, the first of many anticipated annual events for the future. Although Sulochan was far from a shining example of a model devotee, and he was unfortunately afflicted with many faults, he should nonetheless, in my opinion, be respected and honored for (1) his love for his spiritual master, and (2) his courageous effort to expose corruption within his spiritual master’s society. His endeavors to (1) expose the so-called ISKCON spiritual masters of his time as pretenders, by writing and distributing his hard-hitting and mostly-accurate book, The Guru Business, and (2) dethrone the zonal acharyas, with violence if necessary, resulted in a murder conspiracy spearheaded by two ISKCON gurus, several ISKCON temple presidents and several ksatriya hit men from ISKCON temples in West Virginia, Ohio and Southern California.

As the residents of this remote religious commune in West Virginia’s northern panhandle chant in unison, their voices rising and falling over the hourlong service, robed worshippers offer a series of objects to an image of Krishna to stir up their lord’s love for the Earth. The flame of a ghee lamp is waved before the image, offering Krishna the pleasure of warmth and light produced from the milk of the community’s sacred cows. Then the lamps are carried to each of the devotees, who, one by one, briefly hold their hands over the flame before placing them on their heads, transferring the warmth of the lamp to their own bodies. Next, a pink flower is held up to Krishna before again being carried to the devotees.

  • Swami Bhaktipada, Ex-Hare Krishna Leader, Dies at 74
    Swami Bhaktipada, Ex-Hare Krishna Leader, Dies at 74 By MARGALIT FOX Swami Bhaktipada, a former leader of the American Hare Krishna movement who built a sprawling golden paradise for his followers in the hills of Appalachia but who later pleaded guilty to federal racketeering charges that included conspiracy to commit the murders-for- hire of two devotees, died on Monday in a hospital near Mumbai, India. He was 74. Mike Appleton for The New York Times Swami Bhaktipada presided over a Hare Krishna service in 2004 at the Interfaith League in the East Village. New Vrindaban Community The cause was kidney failure, his brother, Gerald Ham, said. Mr. Bhaktipada, who was released from prison in 2004 after serving eight years of a 12-year sentence, moved to India in 2008. The son of a Baptist preacher, Mr. Bhaktipada was one of the first Hare Krishna disciples in the United States. He founded, in 1968, what became the largest Hare Krishna community in the country and presided over it until 1994, despite having been excommunicated by the movement’s governing body. The community he built, New Vrindaban, is nestled in the hills near Moundsville, W.Va., about 70 miles southwest of Pittsburgh. Its conspicuous centerpiece is the Palace of Gold, an Eastern-inspired riot of gold-leafed domes, stained-glass windows, crystal chandeliers, mirrored ceilings, inlaid marble floors, sweeping murals, silk brocade hangings, carved teak pillars and ornate statuary. New Vrindaban eventually comprised more than 4,000 acres — a “spiritual Disneyland,” its leaders often called it — with a live elephant, terraced gardens, a swan boat and bubbling fountains.

  • TRANSCRIPT Intro [Sound of Child at Zoo: “Wake Up, Lion!”; Lion Roar]
    From Cages to Conservation - American Zoos: Inside Out TRANSCRIPT Intro [sound of child at zoo: “Wake up, lion!”; lion roar] RUSSO: The zoo is one of America’s most popular institutions. Millions pass through its gates every year. And the best zoos say they’re more than a good time. BOYLE: As we urbanize more and more, as we lose species, zoos are playing a very important role in connecting people to nature. RUSSO: I’m Christina Russo, and this is “From Cages to Conservation—American Zoos: Inside Out.” Top zoos say they provide great animal care, are big conservationists and inspire visitors to save wildlife. But critics aren’t buying it. FARINATO: All it means is you’ve got a bunch of people going through the gate, looking at what you put in front of them, and walking out the gate. RUSSO: In the next hour: just who are zoos serving—the public, the animals or themselves? “From Cages to Conservation—American Zoos: Inside Out” is next. First, this news. Part I RUSSO: This is a special report from WBUR Boston. “From Cages to Conservation— American Zoos: Inside Out.” I’m Christina Russo. [Oakland zoo carousel ambience; children and calliope music] RUSSO: Going to the zoo—it's one of America’s favorite pastimes: peanuts, a merry-go- round, and some Sunday afternoon family fun with the animals. [Oakland zoo carousel ambience; children and calliope music cont’d] RUSSO: There are 2700 zoos and other animal exhibitors across the country. They range from tiny ramshackle attractions to modern facilities hundreds of acres in size.

He was certainly a “personality.” What you would imagine a “Vegas performer” to be, he was. I would encourage others to read the book and draw their own conclusions. On the other hand, we in the accordion world remember him as one of two performers that actually kept the accordion alive. Myron Floren (Lawrence Welk) was the other. When we lost Dick Contino, we lost the icon that encouraged us to keep the accordion alive during the “guitar age.” June Meeting The June meeting will be held on shy about playing alone, some of us will play Sunday, June 11, at 3:30 pm. with you.

I would also like to extend my gratitude to Dr. Cory Crawford – for agreeing to be my second reader – and to my parents, Dennis and Natalie Eberly – for always supporting my intellectual endeavors. Additionally, I owe many thanks to the New Vrindaban community for welcoming me graciously. Finally, I must thank Dr. Tom Carpenter – whose generosity has not been forgotten. I dedicate this thesis to him. iii ABSTRACT: If you were to visit New Vrindaban, West Virginia (or any number of ISKCON centers in the United States) in the late 1960s or early 1970s, you would have primarily encountered young, white, counter-culturists. These Americans, with their Sanskrit spiritual names and Indian garments, moved to the commune to live off of the land in exchange for their service to the community and to the growing movement.

    San Francisco Accordion Club APRIL 2012 NEWSLETTER Next Meeting, April 15 @ 2 p.m. A Musical TRIBUTE The World’s First to VALERIE KIESER Accordion Club since 1912 On February 13th, 2012 Valerie Kieser lost a brave and valiant battle with cancer. She was one of the greatest and most active promoters of the accordion in the Bay Area and truly was the heart and soul of the San Francisco Accordion Club, serving the Club continuously since 1995— from President to Newsletter Editor. Whenever there was a task to be done, Val was the first to volunteer. She displayed energy and enthusiasm in all that she took on, leaving others half her age in the dust. Val knew how to live life to the fullest and she was both gracious and generous to everyone she met—there wasn’t anyone who didn’t become an instant friend. Val will be missed beyond measure. We were Val’s family and she was ours. As a tribute to someone who gave so much, the San Francisco Accordion Club is dedicating our regular April meeting to Val, to honor her memory and all that she has done for us. The San Francisco Accordion Chamber Ensemble and the San Francisco Accordion Club Band, two groups very dear to Val, will be performing, as well as other members and guests who have requested to pay tribute to Val. Her nephew, Jeff Trabucco, will present a slide show looking back over Val’s life and there will be an opportunity for people to say a few words and share a recollection or two.
