Mumbai October 29th 2006
Well I wrote an entry yesterday to share this special occasion with our readers, but unfortunately somehow it didn't make it into the blog. I don't know what happened.
I very much appreciated being here in Mumbai for this special occasion. I heard news from Vrindavana - 6500 plates of prasadam were served on this special occasion. This indicated the largest number of devotees and guests participating in the festival there in Vrindavana for the last four years!!
Here at Radha Gopinatha Mandira, there were three of Srila Prabhupada's disciples present on this occasion - myself, my husband and Drutakarma Prabhu - who is here to promote recently republished editions of his books which challenge modern scientific theory.
In the morning my husband spoke at length and shared a simple slide show of images of Srila Prabhupada that the devotees warmly received and after that I spoke some recollections.
Actually I always prefer not to speak ,on this occasion because I always become overly emotional, but the devotees were so sincerely eager to hear, that such a consideration felt very selfish.
Here are some photos from the program. Sorry they are a bit fuzzy - not using the best of camera's!!!
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
