Wednesday, May 20th, 2026 Christie Pits, Toronto I sometimes like to record or give an account of the brief encounters I had with people during the course of the day. I find it fun and fascinating. Today’s interactions occurred at Ramsden Park near our ashram temple although my legs carried me much further to Christie Pits Park. Anyways, here goes: I smelt the marijuana at the dog park.

But more particularly she tells us of the magnanimous ways in which the Founder of the Krishna movement, Prabhupada, engaged women and emp

Thursday, May 14th, 2026 Black Creek Village, North York It was a day of joy. Three classes I gave today and one was a zoom call with a group of brahmacharis (monks) from different European countries. That is the good side of technology.

What triggered that subject is we see that at times spiritual practitioners can
