Sridhar Swami LOVED New York Ratha Yatra.He often said:"I am from Vancouver by birth,but actually I consider myself a New Yorker."His "motivational talk" from the main stage to inspire everyone clean up the park after "Festival of India" was a "trade mark" of New York Ratha Yatra.With lots of humour he would jokingly "push" both -"big" and "small" devotees - to help packing the tents and cleaning up the site....
