Akasa Puspa. Flowers of the sky. Today was pusya abhiseka of Sri Krsna. A shower of flowers and this dress is covered in them. A sign that the winter is begining to move on and spring is coming soon. With so many flowers there really seems no need for jewelry. To the poorer folks gold, diamonds, rubies, jewels like those are very atractive. But to those rich enough to have them the natural things like flowers, leaves and fruits are valuable jems. And since Krsna is Laxmi Pati, the husband of the Goddess of fortune, what use are millions of oppulences?
Today i felt like i was racing with the rain storm. For some time the rain would come down in buckets and then the sky would clear and the sun would shine. Once a rainbow appeared. So as i pedaled away i thought that at any moment the rain would sneak up behind me and soak me good. Fortunately it didn't.
The rain might be ending this evening, the sky is clearing a little. So the cold is back in the night air and on top of their most blessed event night dress they once again are showing winter chodders.
