mercy day

yesterday we went to the sunday feast to the cologne temple nearby, where we are living. there, one of the most senior devotees of our movement, and actually the first german devotee, bhakti busana swami, was giving the class.

after the class was finished, i sneaked into his room, where i happened to take prasadam with him.

i told him about my little chanting experiment, and he said , that he also has to chant his rounds even before mangala aratic, because after mangala aratic, his busy day starts, and there is not much time left for chanting.

amazing! i thought, only householders have a hard time getting there rounds together!

maharaja mainly preaches in south america, where he is gbc along with guru prasada swami.

maharaja briefly told me about the problems in the south america yatra, mainly arousing, because the devotees do not chant their rounds and follow the morning program.

when we chant our rounds, that is like watering the bhakti lata bija, our devotional creeper. our spiritual life is starting from there, maharja added.

i felt encourged very much by his association.

that was definitely the spiritual highlight of the week.
