He has presented papers on Vedic environmental philosophy at international conferences and is also the author of /“Human Devolution: A Vedic Alternative to Darwin’s Theory”/ and /“Forbidden Archaeology”/ (with Richard L.

He is a member of the History of Science Society, the Philosophy of Science Association, and the World Archaeological Congress. Born in 1948, he became an initiated disciple of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda in 1976.
Bhūtātmā Dāsa (Austin Gordon, 1950-2020) earned his PhD in Political Science from the University of California, Irvine, after which he taught a variety of courses in American politics at the university level. He later taught at Saddleback Community College, in Mission Viejo, California, and seminars in American Politics at University of the Visayas in Cebu City, Philippines. Bhūtātmā was initiated in 1971 by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. During his life he traveled extensively through India and the Far East to study spiritual traditions. Along with publishing articles in his academic discipline, he also wrote books on Eastern thought.
Mukunda Goswami, writer, researcher, editor, and one of the earliest members of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, has lectured in thirty-eight countries and published newspaper and magazine articles on spirituality and contemporary issues. Coauthor of four books, including /“Divine Nature: A Spiritual Perspective on the Environmental Crisis”/ and /“Coming Back: The Science of Reincarnation”/, he now resides in Australia, where he continues to write.
Kūrma Dāsa is one of the world’s leading proponents of pure vegetarian cuisine. Dubbed “Australia’s Vegetarian Guru,” Kūrma has been writing cookbooks, teaching students, and hosting internationally broadcast TV shows for over thirty-five years. Kūrma’s innovative cooking continues to shake off the outdated notion that vegetarian food is lackluster. He lives in Perth, Australia.
The lucidly explained recipes in each of Kūrma’s four cookbooks provide an adventure in world culture, taste, and nutrition. He has also published two recipe-card sets, “Quick Vegetarian Cards” and “Cooking With Kurma Vegi Cards.” For more information, visit kurma.net
