A woman came into Kindred Spirits the other week with her young baby. We ended up speaking about karma and on parting I said “I hope your child finds the way to burn up all of his karma in this life so that he will be free to not take another birth again in this material realm” With an exasperated, somewhat hollow expression of hope, as if she had been contemplating it for a long while, but had come up with no tangible solution, “Oh, if only there were a way..” It is for this woman and anyone else who wants to become un-snared from the effects of karma, from the cycle of birth and death, that I have asked Swami Tripurari to speak on this topic Thursday, March 31.

I just returned from a profound experience at the residence of a devotee named Prema Kishore, a Canadian man who I’m guessing is in his early 60′s. He has lived here in Vrindavana for over 20 years, and it is definitely his home in every sense of the word. He has some land, cows and bulls, gardens where he grows flowers for the Radha-Shyamasundara deities at Krishna-Balarama Mandira, and a beautiful, yet modest house.

Vrindavana means harmonious living, and a daily reminder of that lifestyle here is the presence of all kinds of animals. I have seen cows, bulls, horses, camels, donkeys, goats, sheep, buffalos, pigs, dogs, chickens, beautiful bright green parrots, and of course, lots and lots of monkeys! I have seen all of these animals just on the road with me and everyone else. They become part of the landscape, part of the daily life. The sweet part about having these animals here in Vraja, is that many of them remind me of Krishna and his pastoral pastimes here.

We first walked on the main road, but then cut through a gate and entered the inner path around Govardhana. This path is not paved, but simply soft sand, and is right at the base of Govardhana. I watched women making cow dung patties, arranging them on the grass in formations to allow the best drying in the sun. Their children ran around, playing together. There were dogs, big pigs with lots and lots of little pink piglets clustered together, and the occasional cow that crossed our path.

Out of compassion for the fallen souls, Sri Krishna Caitanya came to this world with His personal associates and divine abode to teach saranagati, surrender to the almighty Godhead, and to freely distribute ecstatic love of God, which is ordinarily very difficult to obtain. This saranagati is the very life of the true devotee.
