Buenos Aires, Argentina
Fast approaching
The Chariot Fest fast approaches,
mañana (tomorrow) to be exact. Many visitors from different locations in the
country have arrived. From outside Germany, comes a monk, Bhakti Bhushana
Swami, a wonderful peaceful monk if ever I knew one. I already mentioned about
Mahavishnu Swami, who’s from the U.K. And then there’s myself, from Canada.
I met Mark, a New Yorker, now
living in Santa Fe, who was startled to hear a kirtan party in one of
the sections of Buenos Aires where he was on an art assignment. He sought out
the temple and came over. Nice guy.
I also met Ricardo, an Ayur-Vedic
therapist. He agreed to work on my stiff thighs, so we made a much-needed
appointment. I now have happier legs.
I have been coming to Argentina
since 2006 so I’ve become acquainted with many of the youth, whom I’ve engaged
in the plays in the past. Two brothers are now members of a band, playing at
nightclubs. It’s not what I recommend, but I’m glad they love Krishna and I’m
glad they come around.
A fourteen-year-old, the son of
one of my disciple students, asked me what I thought about his school teacher
asking him to accept Jesus in his heart. I explained that Krishna is
that heavenly father that Jesus talks about. So, both father and son give good
guidance, but to compare notes, Krishna, though the disciplinarian, is more fun
and you can accept both persons as guides.
May the Source be with you!
