Burnaby, B.C.

Bhakti Yogis Are Precious

It was a full day of rain and I’m not used to this, but such is nature.

Special about today, though, is that it’s the birthday of Vrnda. Who is Vrnda? Well, she’s a very sweet and intelligent woman who is doing a lot for this movement. She has an incredible devotional and legal head and is most helpful in so many capacities, most of all acting as the zonal secretary for our North Zone here in North America. She assists me in my GBC responsibilities. GBC stands for Governing Body Commissioner.

It is interesting to note that she resides in the dead-centre of the continent – that is Winnipeg, Manitoba – and Manitoba is the place in the world known as the polar bear capital. No, you won’t find them roaming around at the Winnipeg location for Krishna Consciousness; at 108 Chestnut Street. Those big burly predators are found in the northern portion of the province.

While the local community paid homage to her, being that it is her day of appearance, I received a call that one of our Mauritius members, mother of Aindra, from Oakville, Ontario, passed away today at the age of 80. Her name is Coosmootee and she is a bright spot in this world, along with Vrnda.

I pray that Vrnda will be with us for a long time to come. Practitioners of bhakti yoga are precious.

May the Source be with you!
