Vishnujana Swami first joined the Hare Krishna Movement in 1967 in San Francisco, amid the 'Summer of Love.' His legand would become immortal. Vishnujana Swami's appearance on this planet is to directly assist Srila Prabhupada in distributing the transcendental sankirtan movement of Lord Chaitanya, and to forever inspire and enchant the heart of the devotees.
Within the sweet world of Krishna Consciousness, there are souls whose potency and charm attract our hearts, and we naturally want to serve them. Such is the nature of Vishnujana Swami. Remembering his life makes you think of Krishna, and how wonderful His devotees are. We naturally feel, "If I could just be one of them."
He danced through the streets, chanting like a 'transcendental madman', personifying Sri Chaitanya's sankirtan movement. Bringing form to Krishna bhakti, he enthusiastically helped Srila Prabhupada forever establish Krishna Consciousness in the world.
Thirty-two years ago, Vishnujana Swami mysteriously disappeared from our lives. Now, the transcendental radiance of his blissful personality again shines in this world, making its way into our hearts...
INITIATION
Srila Prabhupada has decided it is time to initiate his new disciple, who has been living at the Radha-Krishna Temple in San Francisco for a month. It would be at the dawn of Spring, on the morning of Easter Sunday, that Vishnujana das would appear in this world...
On returning to the temple from his morning walk around Stowe Lake, Srila Prabhupada enters the small storefronts double doors amid the excitement of the devotees, busily completing the final arrangements for the initiation cermony. Srila Prabhupada walks to the rear of the temple room and offers obeisances at the altar of Lord Jagannatha. He then walks to the cushioned seat which has been arranged before a raised mound of earth where the fire sacrifice will take place. Sitting in a meditative mood, Srila Prabhupada begins to play his kartalas, singing prayers to the maha-disciplic succesion of Lord Chaitanya.
After chanting, Srila Prabhupada gives a potent lecture about spiritual qualification. A nod from Srila Prabhupada, and the new initiate approaches him respectfully. After chanting on japa beads and reciting the regulations of initiation, Prabhupada hands the beads, saying, "Your name is Vishnujana dasa. 'Vishnujana' means 'one who serves the devotees of the Lord'. Hare Krishna."
Everyone in the temple cheers as the new Vaishnava accepts his beads and offers obeisances to his eternal spiritual master. Srila Prabhupada begins the fire sacrafice, formalizing the rites of initiation. As he continues ladling the ghee, the small flame quickly turns into a fiery blaze
Just prior to the Christmas of 1970, a hippie street market scene has spontaneously manifested right in front of the University of Texas on Guadalupe Street, a broad roadway running along the edge of the campus. Many hippies begin to lay down blankets and sell their wares. The area soon becomes known as 'the Drag,' and a favorite haunt not only for hippies, but for the fifty thousand students on the campus across the road.
News of 'the Drag' soon reaches the devotees in Houston. Vishnujana is especially intrigued, "What's happening up there in Austin? Let's go check it out," he suggests. The next morning, Vishnujana announces his intentions to the assembled devotees. "I'm going to Austin. I want you all to stay here and maintain the temple." After breakfast prasadam Vishnujana loads the van with a few cases of BTGs and KRSNA books, and he and one other devotee drive off to Austin.
The first place Vishnujana wants to see when they arrive is 'the Drag.' And there it is right across the street from the campus, crowded with hippies and students. Immediately, Vishnujana recognizes that this is the ideal situation to plug into with his preaching. He has no mrdanga drum, no harmonium, no kartalas, nothing. He always travels very light, taking only his danda staff, a woolen blanket, a toothbrush, one change of cloth, and Bhagavad-gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam.
