Perhaps the best ever film of a Rathayatra festival. This film features Srila Prabhuapda chanting and dancing in ecstasy in front of Lord Jagannatha. It is a huge scale Rathayatra festival with three big carts that have an arrangement so the tops are raised and lowered as Melburne has trams and the carts have to be able to fit under the tram lines. So it is quite a wonderful arrangement...

An amazing television news documentary film of Srila Prabhupada's first visit to Sydney, Australia in 1971. It shows the first ISKCON temple in the Sydney suburb of Paddington. The film features Srila Prabhupada performing the installation ceremony of the Sydney Deities, Sri Sri Radha Gopinatha. They interview one young girl who has recently joined the temple and her mother and aunt. Her mother is not at all happy that she has joined the Hare Krishna temple and the mother comments that in Srila Prabhupada's class she heard him say that to have unrestricted sex life was like animals. She was quite disturbed by this and said, "That is not the way I brought up my daughter." But it is a very positive, favourable interview and even admit that the girl is very happy now that she has joined the Hare Krishnas.
