Hare Krishna!
As many of you already know, Bhakti Marga Swami has been spending a little time at Gita Nagari. The Sunday service was absolutely great! Not only did Maharaja perform the kirtan but then the congregation was privy to a new play: "Lonely People", which was written by Maharaja and two other people. It depicts the problem of loneliness among people today - from the family to the nuclear family. It was hard hitting and certainly timely.
Please check out some pix below.
Also, work is going forward around the farm. The greenhouse is certainly living up to its name - lots of green plants inside! The garden is being prepared. Now let's hope for no more FROST this year and all will be well.
When you next come to GN you will notice a marked difference in front of the ashram. The large trees and bushes, which had been planted many years ago and had grown to rather large proportions have been removed and now the ashram can be viewed as a whole! The large roots were undermining the foundation and the debris from the trees was filling the gutters and making them unusable.
I caught Nandakisore and his children working at the new house behind the kitchen. They were cutting electrical wire to get ready for the wiring of the house. I think the roof will be worked on this Tuesday.
Last but certainly not least was the Sunday feast cooked by Tamal Krishna, Astanga and M Svarga. I am not sure but this might have been the first time this year that we all had prasadam outside - It was truly wonderful :-)
Please come to the farm and offer your services - We need all the help we can get! With the garden planning and planting, as well as working on a schedule for the cows' grazing, etc etc etc, everyone is stretched to the limit. Anything you can do will be most appreciated.
Your servant, Ortrun
