Re-Membering
When peers get together magical things happen. For instance one of my god brothers helped
another one to get back on track to chanting his prescribed amount of japa
meditation. The fellow had fallen short
of his vow to his guru in this regard for some time. So it took his buddy (a roommate)
just a little coaching and hence the derailing is now history.
The person who had fallen from grace (so
to speak) is now a happy chappy. It was
four of us god brothers who took to part 2 of going down memory lane. Our additional person was Danapati who has
this photographic memory about the past.
We visited our old temple, an impressive Victorian home on 187 Gerrard. Currently an accounting firm occupies the
space. Around the corner on 109 Pembroke St.
We also ventured over to Allan Gardens Krishna
devotees would sit amidst banana and papaya trees and do their japa chanting- meditation. It was in those days, the early seventies,
that a lotus flower just might have gone missing from this horticultural centre
and would have made its way to our temple across the street, to find itself on
the altar.
But I don’t think it was Gods doing. In general I would say we were a family. Yes the four of us were members of a family. We were re-membering.
May the Source be with you!
