The Bliss London temple will be quieter than usual for the next three days. Why? The devotees will be sharking! So watch out, Londoners...
Bliss London devotees go sharking
Bhaktin Dora mataji has been appointed the Bliss Sankirtan leader, and every day she's encouraging the devotees to get more serious about distributing Srila Prabhupada's books.
One should engage in practical service to the Lord. In our Krsna consciousness movement, all our activities are concentrated upon distributing Krsna literature. This is very important. One may approach any person and induce him to read Krsna literature so that in the future he also may become a devotee. Such activities are recommended in this verse. Such activities will always remind the devotees of the Lord’s lotus feet. By fully concentrating on distributing books for Krsna, one is fully absorbed in Krsna. This is samadhi. SB 10.2.37
Ahead of our upcoming group trip to Germany for Gaura Purnima at His Grace Mathura Pati Dasa's temple, the devotees will be sharking from Wednesday to Saturday.
What is sharking?
Like sharks, devotees waste no time in getting to the sustinence - the laksmi! The idea is that after the morning Guru Puja, devotees get ready for the day, take prasadam during the class and then head out, leaving behind the leisurely kirtan and prasadam in the temple room...
With bags full of transcendental literatures and sankirtan snacks (chocolate and cheese preferable), the devotees will hit the streets of London to try and collect as much as possible before we put our temple to temporarily rest for the duration of the trip!
