Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Dear Family, Namaste! When I was young I had a small Sri Krishna idol in wood that I would play with. I had a pink Shawl that I would wrap him with and everyday I would bathe Him and affix chandan on Him. This was 30-35 years ago. I think after 8th grade, I stopped doing this and the world took over and I forgot. In 2000, I met our Beloved Maa and Beloved Swamiji and since then they have demonstrated to me again and again how to love God. This is just one of the beautiful gifts They have given me. The love they shower on all of us is infinite and inconceivable. I feel it everyday. How can we offer our gratitude to these two wonderful souls? What are concrete ways for us to demonstrate our thankfulness? How can we complete the circle? We receive, how do we give back to Them so that the circle of love remains fresh and complete always. I look forward to your replies. with love and prayers srini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 think of them as your parents. what do they need. are their physical bodies hungry, can they pay for their internet connection? it is a part of both responsibility and devotion to support saints according to the gita and other places. think, how can i enable them to do their work in this world. then give them what they ask for. both literally and ultimately. if they do not ask, try and read between the lines. it's not personal. you do it for your own connection with the Self. each according to his ability without judgment. , "srini_sadhu" <srini_sadhu wrote: > > Dear Family, > > Namaste! > > When I was young I had a small Sri Krishna idol in wood that I would play with.
