Acerca de esta escucha
Miracle on Second Avenue is a short, carefully researched documentary book written in a you-are-there style that catalogs the start and growth of the Hare Krishna movement. Miracle on Second Avenue won the 2012 National Indie Excellence Award for Biography. The work is a memoir of Mukunda Goswami, one of the pioneers of the religious group that is now known throughout the world formally as the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Miracle is a series of historical events that include the movement's founder, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, and his interactions on two continents with the author over the three-year period, from August 1966 until December 1969.

In the four enthralling histories in this volume of Srimad Bhagavatam, we find out how Krishna reciprocates to whatever desire we have. Through the examples of great kings, gods, and celestials, we learn how to approach Krishna to attain all of life’s important goals. We hear the teachings of great sages, divine incarnations, and the Lord himself, which enable us to ultimately achieve the highest perfection: eternal life in the spiritual atmosphere.

Historia
The practice of what is commonly known as hatha yoga is but one of eight branches of the body of knowledge that is yoga. Yoga is a sophisticated system of self-empowerment that is capable of harnessing and activating inner energies in such a way that your body and mind function at their optimal capacity. It is a means to create inner situations exactly the way you want them, turning you into the architect of your own joy. A yogi lives life in this expansive state, and in this transformative book Sadhguru tells the story of his own awakening.

Historia
We all long for boundless love as we long for home. But how can we find our home our meaning and purpose if we don't know our self? Wise-Love is an exploration of the self, or consciousness, guided through the meditative eyes of saints, sages, seers, and mystics. As we embark on the journey to the self, we discover that the self's most charming characteristic part of its eternal, unchanging nature is that it is a lover, a lover who can be satisfied only when ordinary love evolves into wise-love.

In 1971, at age 20, Visakha had just published her first book and was beginning her ascent to fame and fortune through a career in photojournalism. Then, at the invitation of her college boyfriend, Visakha traveled east, where she first learned about bhakti yoga - the yoga of devotion - from a simple Indian sage. The bhakti tradition seemed irrelevant to Visakha. Five Years, Eleven Months and a Lifetime of Unexpected Love is Visakha’s deeply personal account of the emotional upheaval caused by her doubting her own cherished convictions....

But Ray has a gift and a dream—he’s determined to become a world-class professional violinist, and nothing will stand in his way. Not his mother, who wants him to stop making such a racket; not the fact that he can’t afford a violin suitable to his talents; not even the racism inherent in the world of classical music.

Two brown girls dream of being dancers - but only one, Tracey, has talent. The other has ideas: About rhythm and time, about Black bodies and Black music, what constitutes a tribe, or makes a person truly free. It's a close but complicated childhood friendship that ends abruptly in their early 20s, never to be revisited, but never quite forgotten, either. Tracey makes it to the chorus line but struggles with adult life, while her friend leaves the old neighborhood behind, traveling the world as an assistant to a famous singer, Aimee, observing close up how the one percent live.

Stanley Booth, a member of the Rolling Stones’ inner circle, met the band just a few months before Brian Jones drowned in a swimming pool, in 1969. He lived with them throughout their 1969 American tour, staying up all night together listening to blues, talking about music, ingesting drugs, and consorting with groupies. His thrilling account culminates with their final concert at Altamont Speedway - a nightmare of beating, stabbing, and killing that would signal the end of a generation’s dreams of peace and freedom.

Jimmy Webb's words have been sung to his music by a rich and deep roster of pop artists, including Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Donna Summer, and Linda Ronstadt. He's the only artist ever to win Grammy Awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration, and his chart-topping career has, so far, lasted 50 years, most recently with a Kanye West rap hit and a new classical nocturne. Now Webb delivers a snapshot of his life from 1955 to 1970, from the proverbial humble beginnings into a moneyed and manic international world of beautiful women, drugs, cars, and planes.

Historia
Susan Shumsky is a successful author in the new age/spirituality field, writing books on meditation, intuition, prayer, auras, chakras, and the like. But in the 1970s, she was one of only a handful of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s personal attendants and administrators, in India, Switzerland, and elsewhere. Following the teachings of Maharishi displaced Susan’s devotion to the hippie lifestyle, as she learned about meditation and grew spiritually self-aware. Maharishi founded the spiritual movement TM (Transcendental Meditation).

Historia
Bill Hayes came to New York City in 2009 with a one-way ticket and only the vaguest idea of how he would get by. But, at 48 years old, having spent decades in San Francisco, he craved change. Grieving over the death of his partner, he quickly discovered the profound consolations of the city's incessant rhythms, the sight of the Empire State Building against the night sky, and New Yorkers themselves, kindred souls that Hayes, a lifelong insomniac, encountered on late-night strolls with his camera.

Historia
In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a Black African father and a White American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a Black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father - a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man - has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey - first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family.

Historia
When journalist Steve Lopez sees Nathaniel Ayers playing his heart out on a two-string violin on Los Angeles' skid row, he finds it impossible to walk away. More than 30 years ago, Ayers was a promising classical bass student at Juilliard - ambitious, charming, and also one of the few African-Americans there - until he gradually lost his ability to function, overcome by schizophrenia.
Over time, the two men form a bond and Lopez imagines that he might be able to change Ayers' life. The Soloist is a beautifully told story of devotion in the face of seemingly unbeatable challenges.

Wonderfully first-hand account of history
This is a story that probably only Mukunda Goswami could write. Historic account at the ground level and in the midst of the creation of a global movement. My only request to Audible would be to include a PDF of the photos that are often referenced in the narration. They are an important part of the story and the listener is left a little disappointed when Mukunda describes the photo (to the listener, doesn’t seem to be part of the book reading) and we can’t see it. Still, very glad for the journey, Mukunda!

What a beautiful story
Hare Krishna,
This is a beautifully written and narrated first hand view of Makunda Goswami and his role in starting ISKCON in the 1960's. I fell in love with everyone in the book and have an even deeper understanding of A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and the profound love he had for the movement and his clear vision that he carried forth. A wonderful read, I finished in a few days because I could not put it down.

Great history poorly told.
The first hand account of the ‘Hari Krishna’ beginnings in the US is a gem. It is so poorly narrated by the author it detracts from the story. No doubt the author had little interest in presenting a polished piece by presenting a first run narration.

nice story but choppy monotone reader
the story was nice but the narrator was monotone, and sounded disinterested which made this a struggle to finish. the chapters were a bit choppy and seemed to end abruptly which made me revisit the app to ensure i was not missing any chapters. this feeling couldve also been a result of the narrators delivery.

Needs professional narration
Good story but delivery just sucks. First person perspective from Mukunda but the deli every leaves MUCH to be desired. Really distracting points - abrupt transitions, having to hear him flip the pages he’s reading from, listening to him swallow/mouth noises, recording setting (like sitting in an empty room and reading).
Would have been a lot more tolerable to get through if it had just been professionally done.
If I knew I would get a refund I would just return it
