President Obama does not believe that change can happen overnight. He is right. If he is waiting for change to “happen”, then yes, it cannot happen overnight. But, if you are willing to “be the change” without waiting for it to happen, then it can happen in an instant. It can happen here and now. You do not have to wait for a single moment. An Indonesian national of Indian descent, Anand Krishna is acclaimed as “phenomenon” by both. his critics and sympathizers. His critics wonder, “What makes him popular? There is nothing extraordinary about him.” His sympathizers appreciate his passion for promoting peace among different sections of society and acclaim: “He comes from The Source of All Wisdom.”

In the last 18 years, Anand has spoken to millions of people through television shows, radio broadcasts, in house trainings, books, newspaper interviews and articles. He is recognized as one of the most vocal of speakers in his country today, addressing subjects including climate change, ills of the society, faith freedom.

"When you speak, Indonesia hears," thus said one of Indonesia's former ministers about him.
