We're as much influenced by everybody else as they are by us, if they are. It's just all a part of the big thing.

Definitely, I think it's much more acceptable, the idea of meditation or yoga. The idea of God trying to contact the soul within ourselves. Back in the 60s it was a bit like, you know , the hippies or the philosophers were the only people.

If there is a God, I want to see Him, not only His energy or His light, but Him.

With our love, we could save the world.

Krishna is God, the source of all that exists, the cause of all that is, was, or ever will be.

If you visit a temple, you can see pictures of God, you can see the Deity form of the Lord, and you can just hear Him by listening to yourself and others say the mantra. It's just a way of realizing that all the senses can be applied toward perceiving God, and it makes it that much more appealing, seeing the pictures, hearing the mantra, smelling the incense, flowers, and so on.

Krishna is God, so He's absolute: His name, His form, prasadam, it's all Him.
