Today I had several devotees asking me to teach them how to care for Tulasi. Im happy to hear that these devotees here in LA are anxious to learn how to care for Tulasi Devi properly. I am willing to give the class. If I do give the class it would be my first time ever giving a class. I never gave a class before in my life. And now Tulasi Maharani by her mercy is allowing me to do this opportunity to teach others about her.
I have to talk to the temple president Svavas and see if he would let me do the class. I also emailed my guru Maharaj for his blessings on teaching others about Tulasi.
There is a lot of information one must know before taking care of their own Tulasi plant. The first and foremost rule for caring for Tulasi is that you CANNOT think of Tulasi as an ordinary plant, she is a PERSON, a pure devotee of the Lord.
I've had several experiences with Tulasi to where she let me know she's a person. I often feel her "Talking" to me. I've even had dreams of seeing her and communicating with Tulasi. My guru Maharaj says that dreams of Tulasi are very real and should be cherished. He also told me that since I had dreams of Tulasi, he said that I had her blessings and that she is very pleased. I do the best I can to serve Tulasi Maharani. She's given me so many realizations. Maharaj also told me awhile back in an old email that Tulasi will help me stay anchored in Krsna Conciousness and to continue serving her. So I took those instructions to heart and now I am extremely attached to Tulasi, Lord Krsna's pure devotee. I am still aspiring to be her maidservant. I love serving her so much. Being attached to Tulasi is my guru Maharaj's mercy. The credit goes to him.
So we will see about the Tulasi Seminar class. Many devotees told me that they would attend the seminar and I was quite surprised by the number of devotees who said they'd come if I gave the class. Let's see what Krsna arranges. And if it goes well I'd love to get the same seminar about Tulasi to others in Toronto that might be interested there.
