I am back !!!

Its been a while since I blogged. Now that I am back here in punya bhumi, I think I should start writing again.

Yesterday, I was in Guruvayur. Guruvayurappan darshan is durlabha. So. I just paid obeisances to the kodi maram (flag post) and satisfied myself. I went there because HH Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaja was coming there en route to COimbatore. Maharaja gave a nice lecture from Bhagavatam 3rd canto - Kapila siksha portion. The verse spoke about becoming disinterested in sense gratification.

Maharaja jokingly mentioned that there are more churches in Kerala than in the whole of Italy, the pope's place !!! I guess its true. Kerala is like that !!! That makes it a challenging task to distributes Prabhupada's boooks in Kerala. He also mentioned that Caitanya Mahaprabhu had visited the whole of South India and converted everyonne into vaisnava. Somehow, they all seem to have turned into other things by passage of time. Anyway, I pray to the Lord of Guruvayur, Lord Sri Krishna to help the movement of Srila Prabhupada to gain a foothold in "God's own country".
