On April 24th, a dream close to my heart came true. I had been having this desire ever since I had started going to ISKCON. It was to see devotees leading a nice ecstatic kirtan in my colony and imbuing everyone with great bliss of hearing and chanting the beautiful names of Lord Hari. Frankly, it was just a desire that I kept close to my heart, but never ever practically did anything to make it come true. But Lord is so merciful. Being inside my heart in his paramatma form, he knew my desire and mercifully reciprocated by fulfilling it. Who can be more kind than Krishna? Who in this world can be more compassionate to a fallen person like me except the supreme personality of Godhead Krishna. Though I had no qualification, yet he lovingly without considering much, like a loving parent chose to satisfy me. It was an occassion of great joy for me. Finally the moon of Lord Chaitanya has risen in the colony I live. The pastimes have begun.......Now we will wait an watch, the miracles manifesting, the mercy of Lord Caitanya overflowing and flooding the people, the saving of people from the most miserable and hellish conditioned life. It will all come true...Chaitanya Mahaprabhu himself predicted that his name will be spread all over the planet. In every town and every village, his name will be chanted. I pray that by mercy of my Spiritual master I get an opportunity to be an instrument in this preaching movement.
