No, I am not a preacher, but I have seen many preachers hiding behind the doors humbly waiting for leftovers from the managing men after a whole day on sankirtan. Those devotees in women bodies who have sacrificed everything personal, living in bananaboxes for years to uphold temples and communities, while still not being asked to share their undoubtedly valuable realizations with others. And if they do, they are accused of trying to seduce the men. The preacher quoted was Srila Prabhupada, not me. I certainly make material distinctions and I know that for me to simply follow my husband is the most safe path right now, since I am not very advanced spiritually but rather completely attached to my family. However that does not mean that every body else in a womens body are nessecarily on the same platform. Regarding welcoming guests, as long as they dont hurt eachother and my husband dont disagree, I will welcome any devotee the Lord sends to my home. Your servant Gunamani d.d.
