Today the Deities are wearing white satin with yellow gold trim turban and rhinestone crowns
the shimmer before my darkend eyes like a millions rising at one time and calling me to leave this mundane universe
so as all the outfits, i've given this one a name, This one was offered last year on Srila Govinda Maharaja's appearance day so it's called across the universe.
Srila Sridhara Maharaja taught us thataffection is above all else and that everything in devotional service is based on affection. In the eleventh verse of the tenth chapter of Bhagavad-gita, He gives a unique translation saying that Krsna being conquered by the lovein the hearts of the pure devotees described in the preceeding verses, when they feeling the darkness of separation from him, he comes before them to say "here I am, see me here'. He says that once mother Saci had cooked Nimai's favorite dishes and began to cry saying "Nimai's favorite dishes and he isn't here to eat". Then for a brief moment through her tears she saw Nimai eatiing. Then she doubted herself saying "But Nimai is now a sannyasi in Puri how could he come here?"
Later he sent Jagadananda to Navadvipa with prasadam and news of his life for Sacidevi. Mahaprabhu told Jagadananda to tell Sacidevi not to doubt that vision, that he really did go there eat what she had cooked.
So important to have an affectionate relation with the Lord and his devotees.
One day i hope the devotees will bless me with enthusiasm for developing that kind of affection.
This evening the Deites wore red and cream colored Chinese silk, which is named the touch that kills for it was offered on one Nrsimha caturdasi, the cloth being given by Yudhamanyu Prabhu.
