Tolerant of you
Janardana Dasa
HA HA HA HA HA
Do you think I am talking to you, or him, or maybe them over
there.....
No, I am talking to any haters, who offend Devotees.
I was at a Goverdhan Puja ceremony (two actually) last week.
One at the Hindu Temple, they celebrate Annakat, and then at
an ISKCON home program, where the host is Non-Sectarian....
He invited me over on Friday night, then impressed upon me
his anxiety about his house being dirty, so I offered to "help"
clean.....
I started in his private bathroom, then moved to the other, then the
floors, kitchen floors,
Vacumed his carpets, re-arranged his alter, to take off all the demi-
gods
and arrange a more ISKCON alter since one Brahmachari was coming....
After I cleaned, the host decided to Grade me, and I got a B.
He informed me that I didn't do the windows! So I cleaned his Mirrors
He even called me a "Bitch" because I was acting offended......
The Bramachari insisted that I be Tolerant and Patient, my question
for him was
Witch one......he said, BOTH.
HARE KRISHNA
idd
The brahmachari was right of course, but having been in similar
situations I can appreciate the difficulty.
I try to understand that Krishna is kindly showing me my own lack of
humility when faced with such treatment, but to be honest it's definitely
not the first thing that comes to my mind. :)
Haibol!

HOWEVER, I find some similarities in those that take advantage of
the sweet disposition of Krsna's devotee's....
Exploiting them for their Material Gain, I can't tell you how many
have tried to get me to work for them, for practically nothing, to
profit
I try not to get angry, but, I do tend to shy away from them
involving me
any more in their Maya, pretending to be such advanced devotees.....
This is all my own doing, I know, because, I do create my own world.
Make my own decisions, and grow from the mistakes I've made.
HARI BOL
I am, Your Servant
Janardana Dasa
(Janardana=chastiser of wicked men) I looked it up, although my name
came from Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 11, Verse 51
kalkidas
Also the name of the particular Vishnu form that is the supersoul.
