Dear devotees,
Recently I visited my hometown of Murwillumbah, situated in the Tweed valley area of northern New South Wales Australia, near to New Govardhana farm where I had the great fortune of spending my childhood.

2. O heart, please worship the splendour that bears the name Radha, a splendour that with its crown fills the circle of the directions wit

We were invited to teach mantra meditation at a small hatha yoga group's gathering in Taiwan. About 15 students came. In the course of our presentation we mentioned the uncontrolled senses being like untamed horses, pulling the chariot each to its side, the reins being the mind, the driver the intelligence, the passenger the soul... and passed around a Bhagavad - gita open on the painting of that description.

When you ran around the house getting ready, I knew there would be a few minutes for you to stop and say hello, but you were too busy.
At one point you had to wait fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit in a
