Notes that could be added to the article

 * Soon after taking sannyasa, he went to Jagannatha Puri and, although Westerners are not allowed in the temple, managed to get in to see the beautiful Jagannatha deities.
 * He met Mohammed Ali in 1981 and became one of his spiritual advisors.
 * He became a member of ISKCON's governing body in 1982 and an initiating spiritual master in 1985.
 * He went to Africa, where Pusta Krsna Dasa, Brahmananda Dasa, and others were preaching, and opened it up in an unprecedented way. He stayed there, on and off, for sixteen years, meeting and working with the country’s most distinguished dignitaries, celebrities, and leaders, including Nobel Peace Prize laureate Nelson Mandela.
 * In 1990 he was honored by being given the position of a high chief in Warri, Nigeria, in recognition of his outstanding work in Africa. He was widely accepted as an authentic religious leader throughout the African subcontinent.
 * He has sixteen books in print and three more ready for press. His international book team consists of translators working on the following languaged: German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Macedonian, Croatian, Russian, Hebrew, Slovenian, Balinese, and Italian. Many of the books have already been printed in these languages, and a few are still in the process of being translated.
 * As he became something of a well-known international spiritual leader, with numerous college lectures, TV and radio talk shows, and inter-religious conferences lined up for years to come, the ravages of time manifested in an unexpected way, changing his plans forever.

From Here. I'll add them personally if I find the time, otherwise if someone else can that'd be excellent. Dwayne Kirkwood 21:50, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
