Guest guest Posted September 5, 2000 Report Share Posted September 5, 2000 Hare bol, PAMHO.ALGTSP. We have a very interesting community of devotees in Houston, Texas. The devotees with Indian bodies add something very special in their relationship with our Dieties Sri Sri Radha Nila Madhava. I can only name a few of the special relationships because I don't know everybody's. But… 1. a devotee and his wife have a lily pond in their backyard. They Grow lilies and give the flowers to the dieties. 2. this devotee cooks dinner for the dieties 2 days a week. He grows almost all the vegetables he cooks in a little vegetable garden at his House. 3. a few devotee living next door to each other have a big flower garden in the combined backyards. These flowers make much of the flowers for garlands and decorations 4. Jewelry-a few of the devotees own a jewelry business and make all kinds of beautiful ear rings and necklaces for the dieties. There is more…but for many of the devotees have a personal relationship with Krishna-the dieties. This is one of the remarkable things I have noticed about the Houston community. By the way , the dieities are painted with colored chandan,tilak everyday like the dieties in India. It is very beautiful. They are also cooked very special tasty prasdam. Also everybody has jobs and there are no temple devotees-even the president works.
