Scarborough/Brampton
I was happy in my heart to see my recent driver, Leo seated on the chair delivering a class on the Bhagavatam. Everyday the Bhakti Academy slots in different speakers for giving a talk on the ancient text. The qualification for the person transmitting the information is that he or she is a follower of the guidelines given during their stay in the ashram and that they prepare for the class.
Leo’s presentation was much appreciated by those sitting to listen in the conference room which is approximately 25 students and visitors. The class goes for an hour, from 7.30am to 8.3o am, just before breakfast. Tonight the same room was occupied. By the same devotees and also to include some well wishers of Bhakti Academy in a gathering called isthaghosthi. The program was more ore less a chill out session, as appreciation gathering for all who participate in the Academy. The group also presented a film they put together carrying the theme of the Academy’s benefits.
In between the two sessions at the conference room I found the time to slip into my Kyboot sandals and go for those strolls in the woods. After a look at some possible buildings for purchases for our Scarborough congregation. I was able to hit the trails on he the Discovery Walks by Rosedale Valley Road and Maitland Park in Brampton. These happy excursions area a break from indoor activities which are all virtuous in themselves. Whether in or out, service to Krishna is the agenda.
