The foam on ghee, that's how the seamstress described the color of this dress. It has a rich fabric and sheer chodders for Mahaprabhu and Giridhari. Mahaprabhu's sash is similarly wispy. Gandharivika's veil is chiffon like in it's texture. A fesitival for our eyes. The Deities appearing so wonderful to invite us to associate with them in an eternal service connection with Sri Guru and all his entourage.
"You still pedal on this hot day?" "How could i not?" Today was the aids ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The whole distance takes five days to pedal but they went through here today. So many interesting decorations on helmets, pedalers and bikes. One had a dragon on his helmet another had wings on his bike. Many jerseys with slogans and names of people for whom they were pedaling. Along Mission Street, through town and onto highway one and along the coast to Los Angeles.
Red and gold. Chinese silk this evening. Pleats all around for Gandharvika and Giridhari while Mahaprabhu has a plain and basic dhoti, chodder and kirta. Still that elegant feeling that leaves people asking in surprise, "That is a night dress?"
