Prabhupada New Vrindaban 1976

New Vrindaban’s Transcendental Throwback Thursday – 06/05/14.

Each week we highlight an earlier era of ISKCON New Vrindaban.

This week’s challenge: In this photo with Srila Prabhupada there at least 10 devotees whose face can be seen, including a number of ladies. Who can you identify?

Extra credit: Where are they and who currently lives in that location?

What to do: Post your guesses on the “who, what, when, where & why” in the comment section at the New Vrindaban Facebook Page.

Technical stuff: We share a photo Thursday and confirm known details Sunday. Let’s keep it light and have a bit of fun!

Special request: If you have a photo showing New Vrindaban devotees in action, share it with us and we’ll use it in a future posting.
