My name is Dulal Chandra dasa. I am in my late fifties and live in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. I run a new age retail and web store called Kindred Spirits and KindredShop.com. But primarily I am disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. And although I lack any personal qualification to write on the lofty subject of Krishna Consciousness, I will humbly attempt to repeat what I have heard from my spiritual masters and pass it on without adulteration in this forum. In this way I hope to serve the desires of my guru and provide you with some gems of transcendental wisdom that this lowly soul has picked up by the causeless mercy of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna's devotees.

I am a simple hillbilly from the back woods of southwestern Pennsylvania, but my life has been fully enriched by Krishna Consciousness despite my lack of high education and cultured lifestyle. I hope to become more and more spiritually enlivened by associating with Krishna's devotees in this wonderful forum dedicated to transcendental conversation.
