Met Prabhupada before and after he went to America

Sankarshana Dasa: I first met Srila Prabhupada in 1970. Before that I met, that was in 1964. No that was 1963 when he was in Vrindavana in Imlitala. So I went with his sister Bhavatarini Devi. Actually Bhavatarini Devi was to meet Srila Prabhupada. So she took me there. So that time he was writing the books, translating the books, so he was very busy. Just a friendly visit with Bhavatarini Devi. This is my first visit in 1963.

Then Prabhupada came back in 1970 in the month of August in Calcutta, Hindhustan Park road. That was my second meeting with Prabhupada with some foreign disciples. This is a miracle to us that how he converted all American devotees into Krishna consciousness.
