Poem for Jan 10



Personal Stanza


Ayatakshi from Italy
is attracted to visiting us at Viraha Bhavan
and rendering service. She is
an initiated disciple of Sacinandana Maharaj
and she had a guilty feeling,
thinking maybe she was being an “unchaste daughter”
by associating so much with me.
She went to visit him at the temple where he resides
in Germany for a Sanga Mela. While there
she spoke to him personally
and expressed her mixed feelings.
She asked him for his blessings
to associate with me. Sacinandana Maharaj
said ISKCON is not a cult personality movement.
He freely gave her his enthusiastic blessings
to continue visiting me and keep in touch.
She felt very relieved and happy about this,
and so did he, and so did I.
