Na dhanam na janam na sundarim
Mahaprabhu prayed this way in his siksastika. I have no desire to gather followers, wealth or beautiful women or salvation. In today's garlands some pink lilies made their appearance. A few days ago the same lilies were among the arati flowers but today is their first garland showing. They have a strong fragrance, they last a long time and look good. What draws my hasya mood is the name. With a name like that why would Mahaprapbhu have them in his garland? (ha ha) “If the people get word of this, they will whisper about you” one of Mahaprabhu's associates cautioned him about meeting with the son of a young brahmini. If that much would make the people talk then with these flowers would cause them to spread it like wild fire. By another name these are fine and cause rememberance of bhavatad bhaktir ahaituki tvaya, in each birth, one after the other, my only prayer is that I have Your causeless devotional service.
Pedaling along by the flower market, I saw a child of God speaking into his mobile phone. “bhaja gauranga, kaha gauranga laha gauranger nama yei jana gauranga bhaje se haya amar prana” I heard him say I repeated that phrase throughout my travels to the gecko, cruiser king and the whalers all the back winding down the road for the waking and vaikalika service. Next I went to the wharf and opal cliff to the toad and the sufferer's shop the hospital and football field. A women's game was going on the soccer pitch since they all spoke the Spanish I couldn't decide who was becoming victorious.
Winding once again along the road for the sunset I came past another pedaler loaded with groceries and I passed him asking “How you doing?” “Great” he replied, “You're hauling it there, all those groceries and still speeding along!”
Next I came upon a fawn that had come to the end of it's time here.
It's a miracle mom! This dress was made that fast. It was designed to make them swirl and dance 'till the night time turns into the day.
