A Day of Polishing Up
I gave a crash course in acting to Lautaro. I’m always looking for prospective actors for future dramatic productions. Lautaro has that classic yogic body. He’s young and bears this ksatriya(warrior) knot at the top of his head. It’s a great profile for a common Vedic character, a sage perhaps.
This were happening at the temple. Govinda’s Dining Room was busy. Items were piled up high in the hallway, ready for loading into the van for another one of those Yoga Wellness shows, this time held at the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE). The public goes for our food. They love it.
So, two food distribution outlets at one time were going on.
What else? Well, Tamohara and Meramala came from South Africa to offer services. Polishing the brass became Mera’s task while Tamohara took to putting a shine to all wood surfaces in the building. Oh and yes, everything became brighter and glowing with the help of some pledge.
Our building improvement committee pooled together to discuss and plan for a better use of the building. We came up with some good ideas for new classrooms and an improved men and women’s ashram.
Finally a party was thrown. I turned sixty-six, the other day. The community came by to observe. We also pulled in Subha Vilas, a godbrother whose birthday was today. The event went on happily—always another excuse for a roaring kirtan, a joyful chant.
May the Source be with you!
