Readjusting my consciousness
In the guru-centric world, everything is properly adjusted; in the
egocentric world, everything must be constantly readjusted.
To Donetsk — by bus
For the first time, iMonk travels to another tour city by bus.
Another world
At a planetarium, iMonk explains that "reality exists not in the objective
world without, but in the subjective world within."
Week 2
Ukraine: Donetsk, Kharkiv
Newspaper interview
Interview with a reporter from the Government Courier.
Another TV interview

Many contrary conceptions of Krishna consciousness duel for the minds of the

Week 4+

Where do they go?
My mission is not to make "new" devotees, but to enthuse and inspire the
"old," existing devotees... but where are they?
Late nights

Crimean scene
Sankirtan on the Lenin promenade, alongside Yalta Bay.
The simple life
The charm of the Krishna conception of Divinity is that God, in His original
