Different colors everywhere, every color in the rainbow. Makes it good for an ekadasi dress since all the colors of the week are there. Quite a day, they were dressed and had their bath with enough time to spare for me to make the small deities garlands, clean the bath tray and pick the noon arati flowers with time to set the noon plate.
Sickness will surely take the mind where minds can't possibly pedal. Today it was over the Gauranga setu in Navadvipa. Only this time, unlike the days there, there were no ricksaws, water buffalo, flat bed ricksaws loaded with bricks, straw and odd pieces of metal known only to a dham vasi. Nor were there people walking either by themselves or in groups. They weren't carrying baskets on their heads or on poles balanced over their shoulders. The pavement wasn't lumpy or uneven with unplanned speed bumps. No gundas collecting tolls.
This evening the lotus nails is the night dress. "I can't put Gandharvika's sari on her" Bhakta Blade told me. i suppose not every boy knows how a sari is put on. Nonetheless the service was completed and they go on enjoying like anything.
