Halifax, Nova Scotia
Folks and Fiddleheads
One generous donor left us four
hefty bags of the local fiddleheads from New Brunswick. The province boasts
being the capital of this delicious forest edible. We had some for breakfast
and some for dinner.
A sweet treat. Healthy. Green.
It was also our pleasure to make
it to Sunnyside Mall in the next province over – Nova Scotia. Just north of
Halifax is the community called Bedford, and it was advertised at this shopping
centre that the Walking Monk, along with the dream team of musicians –
Mahadeva, Annapurna, and Ryan – would be conducting a walk-talk and
meditational music.
The mall was dead for a Saturday,
due to it being a long weekend (Victoria Day is Monday) and the weather was
nice. However, those who did come to hear, see, and sing were quality folks. I
must admit, there were some real seekers in that mall. Ryan has gifts with
bringing people in to our space, a former clothing shop. Indeed, the public is
interested in pilgrimage, journey and self-discovery. Here in the Maritimes
people take the time to stop and talk, unlike the mega cities.
I must give a special thanks to
Angiras, Kadamba Priya, Savyasacin and others in the Maritimes for arrangements
made. We all feel a special connection to our guru, Prabhupada, who has so
kindly given us a way of living that is soul-satisfying.
May the Source be with you!
