| Prabhupada Chanting In Tompkins Square Park Posted: 29 Jun 2011 02:00 PM PDT
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, Simhachalam, 2011)
The tree in Tompkins square park that witnessed Prabhupada's chanting…that tree became completely transformed – what did that tree possibly do, for how many lifetimes was this tree a pious soul to become that paticular tree which was sharing in that mercy? Now that tree is being worshipped by so many devotees – and the nice thing is that it is not organised, there is no schedule that: 'Ok, now this one and then this one has to do worship' 'The devotees from the east will take over and then……' No, the worship of the tree is just going on, every day there are fresh garlands on the tree – nobody knows who does it. That is far out, when I think of this tree in Tompkins square park how garlands just appear on that tree. It is not just organised, it is wonderful, it means that the hearts of so many devotees has just been captured by Srila Prabhupada and this scene of Srila Prabhupada chanting there in Tompkins Square Park. Just as one can meditate on pictures of Lord Nrshingadeva – Lord Nrshingadeva coming out of the pillar; one can mediate on Prabhupada under that tree in Tompkins Square Park, and that picture can be fixed in our mind.

| Four days in the Czech summercamp Posted: 29 Jun 2011 12:57 PM PDT
From the kirtana weekend in Slovenia, it was off to Modra in Slovakia. There Guru-Maharaja took two days of rest, just doing one evening program, to get ready for the upcoming summercamp in Czech. The camp started with a warm welcome by the Czech devotees, performing nice kirtanas. Later the kirtana was taken over by Dhanavir Maharaja, who arrived shortly after Kadamba Kanana Swami, on Thursday afternoon. In the evening Guru-Maharaja gave a nice class about obstacles and solutions on our way to pure chanting. Whereas the weekend in Ljubljana was focused on bhajanas, the Czech camp realy was built on fiery and ecstatic kirtanas, which got everyone to dance. Enjoy part one of the pictures!

I appologize for the delay of the pictures, but I had a major issue with the old computer I was working with, in other words I dropped and broke it. That is why now, in this first post done with the new computer, I want to really thank Paramesvara Prabhu and Gopali Mataji for so kindly and spontaneously sponsoring a new laptop. It’s now due to their kindness that you can enjoy these pics!| You are subscribed to email updates from kksblog.com To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
