0:00.0 | This is Rambdas here and now, and I'm Ragu Marcus. |
0:23.4 | This talk from Rambdas harks all the way back to July 18th to be exact. |
0:31.4 | 1976 when he did the last darshan. |
0:36.4 | It sounds like a movie at his dad's farm in Franklin, Franklin, a New Hampshire. |
0:45.4 | And many of you know that people used to gather there over the years. |
0:51.4 | Starting when he came back from India in 1968. |
0:58.4 | It's a place that's actually document. You can go up on the site and you can see all the Sufi dancing and Rambdas giving talks and chanting and yoga. |
