San Diego Temple

Well I managed to go to the other temple near by in San Diego. This time I made it to the 12 noon Aarti. It was wonderful to see Srila Prabhupada and the Deities. It made me to forget about all the bad things happening outside the temple. I felt completely at peace once again. That IS where I belong is in a temple with peace and quiet and not being tempted to fall back into my old ways again which were very stressful. Living the life of a devotee makes one peaceful. Now that I look back Im glad I gave up all of what I used to do for a simple life and Im enjoying it. Its like early retirement for me lol. You got the freedom to travel and visit places as long as you want, you don't have to worry about bills hanging over your head. All you have to do is serve Krishna's devotees and Krishna Himself And Krishna will take care of us in return for the services we give Him with love and devotion. I feel most comfortable at the temple in Toronto with the devotees there and I can't wait to return back. I believe that is where I am happiest.

Anyways the day at the San Diego temple was very peaceful and quiet. I met a few devotees there and they invited me to have lunch with them. It felt so good to have prasadam from the temple again. I relished it. And once again Krishna knew I was coming because this time there was sweet rice!!!!! Krishna knows I love sweet rice LOL. Thank you my dear Lord Krishna for letting me have some of that! All glories to You! Sweet rice is my favorite type of dessert at the temples. I could have three or four helpings of it and Im bouncing off the walls ha ha! Its better than what most people do now days like drink and smoke...I can get hyper by just eating sweet rice which is pure and of course has only rice, cardomom powder, milk, and sugar, NO intoxicants like alcohol and all that other garabage people do now a days.

And outside where we were eating I got to see sweet Tulasi. She was in Her greenhouse. And She looked so big and pretty. Her leaves were so green and full as well. Made me happy to see Her. Tulasi is a very special Holy plant.

This thursday I am going back to the LA temple again. I will post more later.
