Tell her to make Him a kirta of deep forest green. Are you going to the San Jose Math? Is the arati starting on time? This dress is from Guru Mahraja's appearance day. It's deep forest green, silvery grey and black. As with most names for outfits it hits me in such a way that it leaves no doubt, this one is Parsely Sage Rosemary and thyme
Today most of the people gave thanks. The roads were quiet except for the police who were watching for speeders and those whose thanks had made them just a bit too happy.
A recent pilgrim returned bearing gifts for the Deities both large and small. Jewelry, wigs and incense. Also tirm for future dresses. Also stories of holy talks.
This evening the night dress has multiple names. The one i'll use tonight is Krsna is a brahmacari. Once the gopis were going to serve Durvasa Muni but first they needed to cross the Yamuna river. There weren't any boatmen to take them across. So they asked Krsna how they would get across and carry out his order. He told them to say "Krsna is a brahmacari". In this dress Krsna has orange dhoti and kirta something like those in the brahmacari asram wear so that's how this name came.
