Hey everyone,
I came awhile ago saying I was feeling compelled to draw pictures of Krishna after having a few dreams about him. A few members here added me on facebook and added me to other Hindu groups and one of the admins. told me what I am doing is called "bhakti". So, I am excited to learn this and have finished my first bhakti and wanted to share.
Here is the link to the picture.
If the link doesn't work you can find my art page on fb at Stephanie Celeste Chateau
Also, I did take some others advice and try to find an ISKON temple in my area (Birmingham, AL.) to get advice on some things but the address leads to my work place Books, Beans, and Candles MS. Apparently, meetings used to be held there but they are gone now? So second part of this post is me wondering does anyone know where Birmingham ISKON members meet now? The search function is not updated. It still lists my work place as Krishna's temple (ISKON) of Birmingham. You can imagine my shock when I found out. I first looked up the address and thought it meant it was on the same street and went up and down the same street confused, then gave up. It was because of another person who came into my work looking for Birmingham ISKON and saw me drawing my bhakti and asked if he was at Krishna's Temple that it finally clicked that my work address is the listed address for the temple, not just that it's on the same street. So, I inquired with my boss why that might be and the only thing he could think of was ISKON members used to meet up there.
Thought I would inform everyone here. Hare Krishna!

Not at all! I have much more Bhakti to do!
Zola.. Your words encourage me greatly! I know they are the truth!
I'll come back with more Bhakti soon. Hare Krishna.
what a beautiful painting. love how the butterfly is enjoying the music :) Think this qualifies for my wallpaper of the month on one of my devices, probably the iPad :) thank you mataji.
Oh Thank you Radhe! That is so flattering.
Krishna will be very happy that we are sharing in devotion.
Please if others feel compelled draw or write or make music about him.
I think it will help in this troubled time of Kali Yuga.
Hare Krishna friends.

Thanks for the address. But that is an apartment?
Is that safe? I thought it would be an actual temple building?
it is in contacts in the right side top.
please check Mataji and please let us know if that is true address. If no then we have to inform the admin.
Thank You so much!
