So it's Monday night (aaaaah it's actually Sunday night--but it feels like a Monday)and somehow I still can't quite get pictures up on this thing--aaargh. But I am reviewing the last week for a couple of moments before I hit the sack. This weekend was sooo busy and so I usually like to sit for a moment and think of the highlights of the weekend. One of the highlights for me was seeing the community young and old alike really pulling together in a harmonious way. So nice to see the this group of people putting in so much of their energy for a common goal. I'm feeling an intense gratitude for the devotees and really seeing community grow in such a nice way. It is so amazing to be part of this growth that we have experienced in the last year. The quote that I keep on chanting in my mind the last 3 days is:
Forget the past that sleeps,
and ne'er the future dream at all,
act in time that are with thee
and progress thee shall call
-Bhaktivinod Thakur
It keeps me in the present moment. Especially when I am very busy it helps me stay peaceful.
So on Saturday afternoon when we were at the second festival of the day and we got rained out by a deluge of a storm I just kept on thinking "Godspeed" everything is moving in God's time:)
Try and not be attached to the result!!!
