So Natural!

Caledon, Ontario

On the previous night a program for Bhakti-yoga was cancelled. Our new following in Scarborough (east Toronto) was renting a space with another spiritual organization but the group became somewhat jealous when they saw members of their group gravitating to our sessions. The end result, our going there weekly is no more.

Everyone Likes Bhakti!

What was original today was a retreat at the Hart House farm where Devadatta was an instructor for a yoga class while I taught a workshop in Bhakti-yoga. Our twenty registered guests had a great time. They especially scored well in their composing prayer and poetry. They also had an incredible knack towards remembering details of friends newly-made and relaying those details before our group. Where it went really awesome was during Kirtan time. Chanting and dancing were activities that were relished beyond description.

The food rated high. To our surprise our cook, Shyama Mohini came up with a Kheer made from Soy milk mixed with vermicelli noodles. It became our dessert. The only stumbling block was a nature walk when the mosquitos forced our group to change direction. Otherwise, yes, everyone loves Bhakti. It comes so natural.
