Burlingame, CA
Observing special bhakti events and holidays like Janmastami, Ekadasi and Karttika, bring a cloudburst of life-giving rainwater to one’s bhakti garden.
Bhaktivinoda Thakura writes:
“With great care I observe holy days like Ekadasi and Janmastami, for they are the mother of devotion.” (Suddha-bhakata-carana-renu)
Such heavy showers fill the water tables below the garden, creating a reservoir of inspiration for the bhakti gardener to draw upon, even in times of draught.
With gratitude and affection,
Vaisesika Dasa
