 A Review of Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism
by Daniel Clark–longtime Radha-Krishna devo­tee
It’s evi­dent the book is a prod­uct of a lifetime-to-date of expe­ri­ence and con­tem­pla­tion. Steve, you’ve put not just your thoughts, but your entire self on the pages. As a per­son­al­ist should. Thank you for not hid­ing behind words.
I hope every­one who is or was a “Hare […]

Since the ques­tion of my ini­ti­a­tion has come up again, let me tell you a lit­tle story about myself by way of anal­ogy. In 1976, I received an unac­cred­ited BA in Gen­eral Stud­ies through Study of Reli­gion and the Whole from Paideia,  a university-without-walls in San Fran­cisco. This was based on my expe­ri­ence with ISKCON […]

Steve Bohlert shares his life’s story in this intro­duc­tory pod­cast and tells more about rea­sons and inspi­ra­tions that prompted him into the voy­age through the sea of Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism.

I’m read­ing a very inter­est­ing book, From Where You Dream: The Process of Writ­ing Fic­tion, by Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Robert Olen But­ler. It seems the process of writ­ing lit­er­ary fic­tion is quite sim­i­lar to the process of nat­ural devo­tion in which we enter into a lov­ing rela­tion­ship with Radha-Krishna. They both involve a daily entrance […]

The Method (PDF): is a descrip­tion of the process Lalita Prasad Thakur taught me for becom­ing a girl­friend of Radha in my per­fect spir­i­tual body. I explain it in such a way that you can use it to develop your own iden­tity in the ide­al­ized real­ity of Braj. It is another draft chap­ter from my […]

NEW ❦ “How I Learned This Process” (PDF): is a 65 page draft sec­tion from my sec­ond book, Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism: A Spir­i­tu­al­ity of Nat­ural Devo­tion. It is an except from my auto­bi­og­ra­phy, Full Cir­cle. It por­trays the years 1971–1974 when I became the first West­erner of my gen­er­a­tion to receive ini­ti­a­tion into the process of […]

I just posted a draft sec­tion of my new book, Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism: A Spir­i­tu­al­ity of Nat­ural Devo­tion, in pdf for­mat. It is avail­able here: http://www.stevebohlert.com/Writings.htm. I’m open to com­ments and sug­ges­tions. Aloha.

For many months now, I’ve been work­ing as an edi­tor and pub­lisher get­ting Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism ready for release. I’m just wait­ing for Zvon­imir to fin­ish his won­der­ful design work, and it will be out soon.
Mean­while, it feels really good to be work­ing as a writer on my new book titled Expe­ri­enc­ing Radha-Krishna: A Guide for Entering […]

I just started my sec­ond book which will expand upon the final chap­ter of my Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism book, “Remem­ber­ing Radha-Krishna Through­out the Day.” I gave the philo­soph­i­cal basis and an intro­duc­tion to the praxis of nat­ural devo­tion in Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism. Now, I will give a detailed expla­na­tion of the prac­tice of involv­ing our­selves in the […]
