TOP MOMENTS BY RESIDENTS

Ramsden Park, Toronto

I am back at my service and I went around asking our resident devotees what was eventful on this day when Holi is celebrated by many people from India, especially.

Vatsal: I came back from work at Boosters Juice to the temple, and I noticed some people with their faces covered with that coloured powder and I had a major flashback that took me to my childhood when there was so much fun and colour in the atmosphere.

Jiva Doya: I went on an early morning walk after a long time, saw the eastern sun on the horizon with spring birds chirping. Another sign of spring was seeing the raccoon perched on a tree. Spring cleaning happened for me on the balcony where there’s a mess. Lots yet to be done.

Vishesh: Out of 100 invitations, one curious soul at the university outreach program showed up with an Iranian stringed instrument. He is from Iran and loved singing with us.

Nityananda: Today was my first time doing an arati for the main altar by myself (and Supersoul).

Subhadra: We had this guru puja song and sang it out in the winter snow. It was wonderful.

Sarthak: University students were playing Holi with Bollywood songs and we (devotees) were denied to play any devotional songs, although Holi is very devotional by nature. Still, we were happy they were connecting to the culture in some way.

Alexander: I was dancing like a wild man during the kirtan. It was really special.

Bhaktimarga Swami: During our Bhagavatam study time we were exploring the attraction the gopis (milk maidens) had for their heart throb Krishna and Balarama. Another highlight was making friends with the two Caribbean carpenters working on the new conference room of the balcony.
