My association with K (I call him K :-)) started from my school days where the newly opened Iskcon (Hare Krishna Hill in Rajajinagar) near my school organized few inter-school quiz competitions.
In that, we were supposed to answer few questions related to past-times of Krishna. We were given few wonderful books with beautiful pics of Krishna for free as study material.
I always did well as I was very much interested in K and his pastimes :-P.
Every year, we were called to the temple in Rajajinagar for prize distributions [probably will upload few pics of them later] and I was mesmerized by the atmosphere there. Though this was back in 1994-97 ish and we did not have a big temple as it is now.
And I was lucky enough to meet many true devotees of K and many are very very best friends of mine.

This day Krishna Janmastami has always been very special to me...2008: - I was in Iskcon at Orlando, Florida.
That was a very wonderful experience. I believe that I went to US just to participate in those celebrations there.
2009: - I was in Krishna Temple at Katmandu, Nepal.
- Awesome dance performances by nepalese. I realized very late that most favourite god in Nepal is Sri Krishna. You get to see his pic (kaalinga mardan) infront of every houseold, shop, office, vehicle in Nepal.
2010:
Obviously 2010 is very very special again.
I am gonna distribute sweets in my office today [it was pending from a long time though.....]
I am visiting the temple with my Love of Life. Even she is very excited about it.
Thanks to K. All glories to K.
Happy Happy Birthday.
I get to eat eggless cake [Cake=Radha :-P] today.
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare !!!!!!
