Yorkville, Toronto
Show Support
I am picking up my pace, since knee surgery
on July 20, so I’m doing quite well three months later, though my distances are
short. I’m happy to pull off 3 kilometres per day and could do more. I get
busy, frankly, and a lot of that business lately entails helping orchestrate a
major protest-chant across Canada. Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg,
Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Halifax – 8 cities – are geared up for chanting
in defiance of recent violence incurred by extremists in Bangladesh.
The approach will be a peaceful one, today,
on the 23rd of October. Anyone who wishes to attend and show support
is most welcome. With this endeavour, which is going on in the States as well
as globally, participants are seeking justice that the perpetrators of death
and violence be punished and that people of minority traditions be safe and
protected.
To make a point, those who practice native
customs of South East Asia follow Vedic or Hindu ways and are the original
people. Their beliefs and peaceful practices need to be respected. Those of us
who follow ISKCON are, in some cases, new to the ancient ways, but the world
has recognized the integrity of purpose by members of ISKCON.
History tells that Hindus have experienced one of the greatest genocides in the world over the last one thousand years. The indigenous population of that part of the world has been under duress for centuries. The sad story of intolerance persists to this day. Please come out and support.
May the Source be with you!
