Mayapura, India
Flowers of Wilt Restored
Interesting day which started off with flowers in a park and
bowing before an icon or deity of the sage, Vyasa, author of Vedic wisdom. That was fragrant and sweet in its own way.
I did get quite worked up at a meeting (our second-last day)
when we began speaking about the topic of our overall sessions—the Vaishnavi
Diksha Guru. To put it more clearly, we
are referring to the approval process for allowing females to become official
teachers (gurus). I've been passionate
about showing fairness and compassion to women of a mature standard. There was an overwhelming concern amongst a
bunch of us that the proposal for approval, from last October, may be
rescinded.
I was shaking in sensation when registering my name, a daily
routine to confirm one's presence. It's
true. I could hardly write. I was nervous.
It took some time for varying authorized groups, who are the
voices of the people, along with members of the Governing Body Commission, to
go over this touchy topic. Fortunately,
the decision of last October holds and will not change. That is the conclusion for now. The proposal welcomes areas in the world to
have female diksha gurus, while other parts, due to cultural realities,
will stick to their traditional and cultural ways.
By the end of the day, I was calmed down, especially after
watching our cast perform the last day of "Grandsire".
May the Source be with you!
