BY JEYANTHY PILLAIDamodara month is a special month in Malaysia. It spurs up every devotee to give every person they meet an opportunity to light a lamp for Lord Damodara and give them an opportunity to perish all their sins and not take birth in this material world again. To signify the start of this wonderful month, devotees in Klang set up a lovely display of a scene in Gokul. Amidst blowing of conch shells and song of Damodarastaka, a screen was removed to reveal a miniature model of a scene in Gokul. It was a sweet sight just watching this scene. It seemed like Vrindavan had just come alive. At one corner, there was baby Krishna eating his butter with broken pots all around just outside a little miniature house. In the center Lord Damodara is being tied by other Yasodha to a grinding mortar with little fawns looking at them. The other end of this model had a river running through with deers, monkeys and fawns gracing the area. The little grove above the miniature model with lush shades of green, blossoming flowers and birds added the final touch to this model.Click here to read more
