About me:

I was born in the Hare Krishna Movement. My parents, Narada Muni Dasa and Rasa Lila Devi Dasi are disciples of Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. I went to gurukula (private religious boarding school) until I began college, at the age of 15. Half way through college I became frustrated with materialistic life and selfish enjoyment. In search of happiness and meaning I began to study other philosophies and religions. This lead me to study the Bhagavad Gita, again, and I was convinced of what I always knew, life is meant exclusively to serve God, and only by serving God can one really be happy. I took a break from college and went to India to study with my spiritual master, Srila Radhanath Swami. After a year I returned to finish my "education." I graduated from the University of Florida with a Bsc. in Psychology. Since then I have been living as a brahmcari and travelling precher. I am currently living in the Bay Area serving as part of the Iskcon Silicon Valley team.
