  • On his last visit to Australia as part of his annual world lecture tour in 1986, Swami Ranganathananda was interviewed by Ray Martin on his midday show broadcast nationally in Australia. There was a tremendous response to the interview with people calling from around the country asking "Who is that man?"
    With our deepest thanks to Channel Nine in Sydney for retrieving the interview, still in good condition. We're also thankful to Melissa Garner at The Footage Company for digitizing and editing the interview clip.

      @@mishraamit9652 To be fair, Vedic Aryans were beef-eating guys who mocked much of what was to develop as "Hinduism", such as the worship of the Lingam. Study Vivekananda if you don't believe scholars of history: "You will be astonished if I tell you that, according to the old ceremonials, he is not a good Hindu who does not eat beef. On certain occasions he must sacrifice a bull and eat it."
