I think I understand your sentiments well. I am very happy that there is someone (or maybe more) who can appreciate and understand our (mayapur residents) situation after every gaura purnima festival! it's really painful to see beautiful, joyful pandals turning into skeletons made of dry bamboos right after the devotees leave. in fact the thought of this scenario itself brings in our hearts fear of separation from wonderful vaisnavas who come to Sridham Mayapur from all corners of the world. of course, by the mercy of the Lord, the various festivals we celebrate in mayapur keep us busy and give some relief. > But one thing was nice, it was quiet. in mayapur this quiteness after the devotees leave makes us even more sad. > We returned to the ruins of our camp where soon all > the tents are going to disappear and there will only be sun, sky, and > sand. certainly you have a vaisnava heart, prabhu! my dandavats at your lotus feet! > Kumbha Mela 2001 ki Jaya!
