Krsna, Israel, and the Druze: An Interreligious Odyssey

A group of Hare Krsna devotees in Northern Israel discovers a community whose culture and religion remarkably parallel the vedic tradition. All sectors of Druze society, religious, educational, cultural and intellectual, become fascinated by the writings of the Hare Krsna movement's founder, Swami Prabhupada Swami Prabhupada, and the devotees and their lifestyle. From Cairo to Jerusalem, from the israeli army to West bank villages. The stories in this book intrigue and startle the reader with their seemingly impossible intermingling of people, cultures and religious traditions.
