Alfred Ford Exclusive

Raipur: Spirituality can work wonders, and many people in their lifetime are drawn towards it to seek answers engraved within their subconscious minds. In a similar instance, Henry Ford's (the founder of Ford Motor Company) great-grandson, Alfred Henry Ford once visited India and fell in love with the spiritual offerings. Alfred Henry Ford is now known as 'Ambrish Prabhu' and is devoted to Lord Krishna.

He said, "India has very friendly people. I was looking for answers to my questions when I was in college. I wanted to know about God and Universe as a whole. I began studying books about Shri Krishna and was inspired by them. Lord Krishna is God, creator, and everything."

"My wife is Vaishnava and my family is devoted to ISKON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) and Sanatan Dharma. This is the age of kalyug ( modern age), we will be having arguments and fights more often, but the solution is to bring everybody together on a spirtual platform. I see India and USA as very special friends," he added.

Replying to why spirituality is needed in the modern era, he said, "My great grandfather Henry Ford was an entrepreneur and was successful. Although, towards the later stages of his life, he was not satisfied because he gave up his simple life to become part of the industry. Even though we are involved and evolved, we should not give up our spiritual roots ."
