Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.
I am from a village in Kerala, Trichur Dist (known Tharavadu - means old farmers home) with more than 80 acres of land, many cows (local type) may be more than 80, bullocks, buffalo etc.. now all members have become working class and in Bombay, and other cities, in our village all the people left off these type of living. I being born and brought up in a straight and strict pure village life...we were vegitarian...everyday morning and evening prayers were compulsory..I used to go with my late grandfather to sleep in some of our homes in the farm house....every day he used to sing Krishna Bajans in Malayalam...this I heard when the land is dry in the summer...in the new rain day...the tough rainy season with thunder and lightening...the winter period and full moon beautiful days ..all I head these Bhajans in Malayalam language......it continued from age 5 till 15 and that cultivated love towards Krishna in me....we had our own 4 natural ponds...at younger age itself got spiritual knowledge from mother, father, grandfather, siblings...I was 9th, youngst and last. Especially the knowledge learnt from home is that everything is Vishnu Amsha... the full home was decorated with different pictures of Vishnu,Krishna and other Devadas. life has become difficult after moved to Bombay with my sisters...I used to visit Juhu Iskcon temple and Kochu Guruvayurappan Temple in Mattunga...after coming to Mathuradesh and joining ISKCON, some percentage of happiness that I left off at my village Elanad has come back to me....and that holds on my life(soul) still to this earth....Hare Krishna...Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare....Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare...
What are your expectations from this community?
Simple life and high thinking and always try to spread Krishna Conciousness to the world..as told by Gurus..
Describe any specific service you would love to offer to Lord Krishna & His devotees?
Now I am 54, the body is not listening the way the mind wants it...however, whatever way maximum possible...I want to do the seva without getting any name, fame or status.. and remain at the end of the que... Dasanu Dasanu Dasa.....as I left all the name, fame and status my own to have my own way of coming up and succeeded in that a bit...Ofcourse what I used to do on my yearly visit to native place in Kerala, arrange 2 to 3 Satsangs in new places and preach to the new devotees.. so preaching is my area of interest...Hare Krishna..
