Message from the Founder of the VCC
TThere are certain experiences in life that are
unforgettable. They leave an impression that
helps to define who we are, what we may aspire
for in life, where we want to live, why we desire
certain things, how we will conduct ourselves
in life, and when and how we shall make the
moves necessary to attain our goals. For me, I
have had three supremely divine experiences
that have profoundly shaped my life.
First, I was most fortunate to meet genuine
devotees of Lord Krishna who introduced me
to the Bhagavad-gita As It Is by His Divine Grace
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. My
greatest fortune was to be accepted by him
as his duly initiated disciple. Secondly, I was
stunned beyond belief when I first visited the
holy land of Vrindaban, India and witnessed
firsthand the transcendental abode of Lord
Krishna who appeared there 5000 years ago.
Third, I felt blessed to be able to visit the
holy temples of Sri Ranganath in Sri Rangam,
Sri Varadaraj in Kanchipuram and Sri Balaji
