Staying Connected

During Romapada Swami Maharaja’s visit to Minneapolis in Winter 2011, a devotee asked me if I would like to drive Maharaja to the airport. It seemed like a good idea. I wanted some time with him to ask many questions about bhakti that had been on my mind. As it turned out, I was only able to ask one question, but, not because there wasn’t an opportunity to ask more. Rather, his answer to this sole question was so profound that it took me the rest of the ride to even understand what he meant.

Ratha Yatra Time and Lessons on Faith, Commitment & Sacrifice

Ratra Yatra [Festival of Chariots] time was always very busy for Romapada Swami, and because we were a part of his crew, for us as well. He paid close attention to obtain a number of city permits, which he had been doing since the first New York Ratra Yatra festival in 1976. One year, he asked me to pick up the permits from the police precinct in midtown Manhattan.
