Back in Chowrasta Square... |
||
 |
 |
|
| ...some people join in with the Kirttan... | ||
|
|
|
|
| ...and soon the devotees are surrounded by large numbers of people, dancing and singing along. | ||
|
|
|
|
Ladies circumambulate the devotees singing "Hare Krishna! Hare Krishna!" |
||
|
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, Jaya Gauranga and Sushen Prabhu distribute flyers spreading the message of Mahaprabhu to an inquisitive audience. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
Jagadananda Prabhu enchants all with his 'full-fledged' kirttan. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
On the other side of the square, Buddhist monks sat to watch the Harinam, a few took flyers and gave donations! |
||
|
|
|
|
|
Later that day it started raining and we took refuge under a shelter by local shops, which were closed due to a complete strike. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
But neither rain nor strike affected the people's cordiality and we made several new friends. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
The service mood of these three was so strong that they spontaneously distributed our Math's leaflets to everyone who passed by. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
Taking shelter from the rain in the main square, some photographers were happy to be joined by our Harinam party. They danced for almost an hour. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
The next day, the police provided stranded visitors a means of leaving Darjeeling. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
Peace and serenity offered by the green hills made up for the cramped condition on the buses. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
From a distance, Darjeeling beckons us to return at some future date and again spread the joy of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's wonderful mission. |
