2012 Offering to HDG Sripad Aindra Dasa Babaji Maharaj:
...I know that someone will censor and delete my Offering like they did in 2010 - has anyone here wondered why i am not on the original audio?...
This year is the 2nd anniversary of the disappearance and ¨Lift-off¨ to the Bauma-lilas of the Lord, of your Divine Grace.
We would together always do the "last rites" (meaning farewell kirtans), for other devotees here in Vrindavan. But you expertly tricked us. You, left without saying goodbye!
Now all we can do is cry...and try to not to ruin OUR voices, and somehow or other sing pleasantly and sweetly, to make you increasingly happy and satisfied with our crow-like sounds in the temple hall every day and night.
The Krishna Balaram Mandir is getting too small for the huge crowds that come not only on weekends but every day now, what to do?
Srila Prabhupada says that all the material and spiritual worlds are contained within the four walls of the Krishna Balaram Mandir - sounds a little bit hard to see, but then again - i guess not.
Your Divine Grace would always hammer on the point of Srila Prabhupada's teaching's about "lazy intelligent preaching" - that not everyone in the movement can get a grasp on. What is it?
That just by sitting (without getting a 'charlie horse' or a leg cramp, that is), in the Kirtan Mandap - in the middle of the temple hall - one gets the most results of that preaching work with the least amount of energy; money; and cost.
But because the word lazy has a negative connotation, those that have a spiritually-conditioned passionate nature (those that may be told or that feel themselves that they have to get their passionate 'ya-ya's out'), will tend to opt or choose for the "active intelligent preaching", which of course is better than the "foolish intelligent preaching".
Babaji, please don't be angry with me. Please don't shoot me, like they would say in the old American cowboy movies, "Don't shoot, i'm just the piano player"
Please be merciful upon this fool, for having no adhikara, and no brains. Everyone knows that you alone carry the king's mace. You are the transcendental gopi emperor of kirtan, for eternity!
You are the Jimi Hendrix of Krishna kirtan alone!
You are and will be for the next 10.000 years!
Thank you for instructing us in the-goal-of-life, Vraja bhakti.
Thank you for teaching us selfless (not selfish), Para-bhakti - to live in Vrindavan for the benefit of others.
Thank you for loving us and everyone you meet!
Thank you for enlightening us on the 1000-fold spiritual benefit, of performing any devotional activity in the Dhama, for the pleasure of Krishna.
Thank you for preaching Raganuga-sadhana-bhakti and highlighting the BBT mistakes as later on described in "Waves of Devotion", by H.H. Dhanudhara Swami.
Thank you for my first Krishna Shila, and all of Them for that matter.
Thank you for the Krishna-Balaram Mandir 24 hour kirtan mandali!

Your most insignificant something,
