Help Radha Krishna Das (Brian Linsley) Beat Cancer
Donation protected
Dear friends, I hope you are all well. I am going to share something that is very personal and difficult to talk about and I also need to ask for your help which is something that is even harder for me to do. So here goes...
In January 2017 Radha Krishna das (Brian Raymond Linsley) went for a routine medical checkup and was diagnosed with the early stages of prostate cancer.
Unfortunately, the cancer is continuing to grow. A recent PET scan showed a 5 cm (2 inch tumor) bulging the prostate capsule with possible seminal vesicle involvement. The doctors have described this as “locally advanced.” Fortunately the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes or the bones, which means if we act now there is a very high chance of a good outcome. But we have to act fast. There is some urgency to treat it before it spreads so we want to start treatment the first week in June.
After extensive research we have found a clinic overseas that has been treating prostate cancer with a highly successful specialized protocol not currently available in Australia. The treatment lasts six weeks with daily injections directly into the tumor as well as two hours of IV drips. Radha Krishna das has been in contact with seven men from around the world who have attended the clinic and they were full of praise for the treatment and the clinic and extremely happy with their outcomes. One of the big pluses of this protocol is that there are minimal side effects, so Radha Krishna das will hopefully be up and running as soon as he is back.
So many people's lives have been touched by the kindness and efforts of Radha Krishna das. For 35 years he has worked tirelessly to share the life changing wisdom of Bhakti Yoga and the Holy Names of Krishna. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he has reached out and made a difference to tens of thousands of people through his efforts.
It's hard to adequately express the contribution Radha Krishna das continues to make to the spiritual lives of people in Australia. He is a mentor to so many of the yoga and meditation teachers here and those who work with him find his guidance and leadership inspiring and motivating. The way he cares about people on a deeply personal level is something I have always aspired to. He is passionate about youth mentoring, he's got thousands of ideas for fresh and innovative ways to share kirtan and the teachings of Bhagavad Gita.
The wonderful words of Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita tell us this about the preachers of the spiritual science: "There is no servant in this world more dear to Me than he, nor will there ever be one more dear." Bhagavad-gita 18:69
I truly feel that the world would be the worse for losing Radha Krishna das, he still has so much to give and so I humbly ask for your support to help him continue his life’s work. Even a small contribution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for reading this. We have set up a bank account specifically for this and assure you not a cent will be used for anything but improving Radha Krishna das’ health.
With heartfelt gratitude
