The chanting started slowly but rythmically, and little by little it spread throughout the ballroom, enveloping everyone. Hippies got to their feet, held hands, and began to dance as enormous, pulsing pictures of Krsna were projected around the walls of the ballroom in perfect sync with the beat of the mantra. By the time Srila Prabhupada stood and began to dance with his arms raised, the crowd was completely absorbed in chanting, dancing, and playing small musical instruments they had brought for the occasion.
Ginsberg later recalled, “We sang Hare Krsna all evening. It was absolutely great-an open thing. It was the height of the Haight-Ashbury spiritual enthusiasm.”

Krishna Camp Videocast 09 - The Rainbow Swami
Posted by admin in : Video, Media , add a commentRadhanath Swami’s conviction that the Rainbow people were natural allies in the battle against darkness and illusion was evident throughout the gathering. He freely gave his association to anyone, just as his spiritual master, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, had shown his love and compassion for the wandering youth of the 60’s. His melodious kirtans and captivating talks really did earn him the title of the Rainbow Swami.

Krishna Camp Videocast 08 - The Holy Name
Posted by admin in : Video, Media , add a comment“I do not know how much nectar the two syllables ‘Krish-na’ have produced. When the holy name of Krishna is chanted, it appears to dance within the mouth. We then desire many, many mouths. When that name enters the holes of the ears, we desire many millions of ears. And when the holy name dances in the courtyard of the heart, it conquers the activities of the mind, and therefore all the senses become inert.”
-Srila Rupa Gosvami quoted in Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Antya-lila 1.99
