All Glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga

On Wednesday 13 October the devotees went to a children's  hospital in Caracas called 'J.M. de los Rios,' to the oncology unit, to give the children and their mothers some cookies and milk that were offered to Their Lordships Sri Sri Paramakaruna Nitai Gaurachandra the day before.

These cookies were baked with love by Nanda Priya Didi and her sister Kamala Nayan Didi.

Amita Shakti Didi, Isvara Prasad Prabhu, Rasa Moi Didi, Mohini Didi, Gaurachandra Das and myself were all involved in this program. Isvara Prashad Prabhu made the arrangements for our visit and Gaurachandra Das was the photographer.

So, we went chanting the Maha-mantra to them, playing some games and telling the story of elephant Gajendra, hoping that in their hearts they would remember the always smiling Krishna.

The next day Isvara Prasad Prabhu took all the pictures to Srila Gurudev in Soquel and when he saw them he expressed full satisfaction and gave his encouragement to keep going with this program.
