description: Srila Prabhupada-lilamrta tells the story of a remarkable individual and a remarkable achievement. The individual is A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami philosopher, scholar, religious leader, saint. The achievement is the revolutionary transplanting of a timeless spiritual culture from ancient India to 20th century America. In this volume we encounter one of the most important periods of Srila Prabhupada's life, as he courageously establishes and develops his movement in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district, the counter-culture capital of the West Coast. There, in 1967, hundreds of thousands of hippies gathered for a "Summer of Love," and in that unique environment of radical exploration and experimentation, the Swami and the chanting of Hare Krsna were warmly welcomed and celebrated. "This work by Satsvarupa das Gosvami is an eloquent tribute to the memory of a man who played a central role in American religious history during the counter-cultural '60s and '70s.
