Every year for the last 25 years devotees have had a presence at the bi-annual Westtheimer Art/Street Festival in Houston Texas. Over one million people attend. For the last 10 years Dr. Guru Bhatki dasi has arranged for a prime spot and set up a prasadam distribution site with appealing rock Hare Krishna Mantra and book table. This year Mahatma dasa and Das Brother Dirodatta dasa played and appealing rock mantra interwoven with hot guitar licks. Danavir Swami also lead an appealing electric keyboard mantras. This is such a big festival that many deovtees form Dallas and beyond come to help bring the mercy to the vast legions of festival attendees. Guru Bhakti's prasadam of samosa, rice,subji, and burfi was distributed to 4000 festival attendees. One lady from crowd asked if she could help serve out the dinners. Quite a few people thanked the devotees and said them visit the site every festival. There were also 5 devotees mingling in the crowd distributing various BBT books. The melodious mantra sounds and smell of the cooking samosas intermingled in the air and helped the one million attendee rise from the bodily platform. For weeks after the festival people float into the Sunday program at the temple Your servant, Pandava vijaya dasa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
