Abstract

E. Allen Richardson is a Professor of Religious Studies at Cedar Crest College in Allentown, PA. This places him 45 miles from Vraj, the Pushtimarg center in rural Pennsylvania, which announces, from the roadside, its presence (in Hindi) as Lord Krishna’s sacred playground in the Western world (paścim jagatkā śrī kṛṣṇa līlādhām, p. 107). Thus, Richardson is ideally situated to study the manifestation of this sect of Krishna devotion in America.
