A Parade In Honor Of The Bhagavatam

Indradyumna Swami: On the invitation of Pundarik Goswami of the Radha Raman temple in Vrindavan, myself and several devotees journeyed to Nathdwara in Rajasthan for a festival program. After taking darshan of the famous deity of Sri Nathji we participated in a parade, along with several marching bands, through the city in glorification of the Srimad Bhagavatam. The sacred book was respectfully carried on the heads of several devotees along the way. Throughout the route people came out of their homes, offices or stores and throw rose petals on the Bhagavatam. When the parade concluded there were discussions on the Bhagavatam in a large tent which were attended by many thousands of people. That evening my Russian disciple, Vrindarani dasi, performed an Odissi dance for the large crowd. People were amazed by her talent. Afterwards, many people came up to me and complimented Srila Prabhupada and the work he did in spreading Krsna consciousness around the world. All glories to His Divine Grace!
