Jagat

I thank God that entering Vrindavan is so arduous. Arduously pleasurable at every step. I thank God that Radha and Krishna's sweetness is infinite, and that it will take an infinity of lifetimes to relish it, but that even then I will still not be filled. And I thank God for Srila Rupa Goswami's insight into the Divine Couple. Jai Sri Radhe! May everyone see the sweet presence  of Radha and Krishna in all phenomena, in separation and union, relishing the rasa. (9 years ago)

My friend Braj Khandelwal, a senior journalist of the Times of India, whom I had met through Jagannath Poddar, invited me to be a part of the Taj Literature Festival. It was being held in Vrindavan for a special session about Braj literature. Several notable persons were honored on this occasion and for some reason I was also chosen for a minor award.
