scratch that last link…

It saddened me to hear you say how u felt being confused regarding what your place was, and if you were doing the right thing by staying or participating in the project of what will be NV,a generation later.. fulfilling Prabhupadhas dreams..how can u NOT be a part of that??
u told me it’s hard but even more blissful to overcome the bumps in the road..(something along those lines)and inspired me AGAIN!

You only showed dedication,love and what i viewed as genuine care and detail for everything you did while i was in your association that week..I’m sure all the devotees would agree.. to feel at home in a place that was new to myself & sharing your service with all of us was very kind..HARE KRSNA!

.
From the divine associations of Guru Maharaj RNS which I was so blessed to have had that week..to the devotee family atmosphere that is thriving in NV..I cannot imagine it being the experience it was without you to show by example..with love,devotion and kindness..to everyone there.humility attracts the Lord .
,the feasts,(pizza,breads,salads, the home-made ice cream with fresh berries.).it wasn’t just preparing prasadum & allowing everyone to be part of your service..BUT…

The sincere love & devotion you exude when serving KRSNA,Prabhupada, & Guru Maharaj RNS is something that made what was my long awaited first association with him even sweeter then I ever could have anticipated..He is the initial reason i was lead to KRSNA Consciousness(RNS), and having that feeling towards him is something I have only had to myself up until I came there & met all of what may be my Godbrothers & Sisters..

Having Maharaj accept me as his aspiring disciple in a place filled with such blessed spirit souls only adds to the fire in my heart desiring to serve Krsna,Prabhupada & his holiness.

I feel childlike and brand new because of the mercy I have been given..

having the association of all the Kirtan leaders,instrument players and dancing for KRSNA thru the halls out to the grass…is what made the 24 hour kirtan a blessed monumental event…chanting the holy name,JAYA!!

there may have been darkness when the lights first went out, maybe for one split second but the light within all of the devotees made the deities come out & dance (it has been said)….it was heavenly to be a part of such bliss..and knowing there are souls serving KRSNA,Prabhupad along with the devotees in a place I will call home ignites my fire inside once again to begin …a new devotional life!

Please forgive me for any offenses I have made ..

I never expected such mercy and compassion to fill my life..

Your humble servant
K

(there may be repeated lines because i edited it and not sure if it came out the way i typed..lol)
that is why i say im a baby student devotee..

For your nectar account…

Even though I wasn’t there, had no intention or ability to go, I felt so enlivened by hearing the graciously shared MP3, the youtube footage, the pictures and the stories. I’m feeling like a theif… running around on the net, trying to steal little drops of NV 24h nectar.

I was at a birthday party last Saturday and I even snuck onto the computer to watch some of it live. I was there… I’m still there. I will be there next year. I have to be.

Thank you…
