In remembrance of Bhakta Andy Goss who at just 24 years of age in 1988 was killed while preaching on the Travelling Temple Bus (hit by a car) during the Australian Soviet campaign to free his Hare Krishna friends in the Soviet Union.

Dedicated to Bhakta Andy Goss who at 24 years of age in 1988 was killed while preaching on the Travelling Temple Bus (hit by a car) during the Australian Soviet campaign to free his friends in the Soviet Union.

In 1985 I sitting in a shop and heard the song below over the radio, being a child of the 1960s, I was very moved by it and thought in a similar way we are trying to help Hare Krishna devotees in the Soviet Union.

And like in the song, some of our wonderful Hare Krishna heroes also died trying free others.

1985 was a time in ISKCON's history when we needed inspiration for our campaign to help free imprisioned and persecuted Hare Krishna devotees in the Soviet Union imprisioned for their religious beliefs.

It is a beautiful song understood by those who lived through the turbulent times of the 1960s who are all now in their late 60s early 70s.

Srila Prabhupada told us we can use anything to inspire our Krishna Conscious endeavours and that even if a fool gives good advice it should be followed.

Even Gold he said is covered by stool that does not take away the value of the Gold bar.

At the time this song to me that there still are good people left in this world despite all the turmoil happening in the 1960s.

This song is dedicated to Bhakta Andy Goss who at 24 years of age in 1988 was killed while preaching on the Bus (hit by a car) during the Australian Soviet campaign to free his friends in the Soviet Union.
