. . . austere vegetarian and yogi, Burton Greene . . .
from an interview, 2003, on paristransatlantic.com:
. . . It was Satchidananda who gave me the name Narada in 1974. . . We're all part of the same organic connection. Our existence is dependent on co-existence; the destruction of any other element is tantamount to our destruction. Until now there's been a cycle of animals surviving by eating other animals - maybe now we can change some of that, move towards a holistic universe which can allow for all elements to survive.
