Traveling to the Russian Border for Krishna. On Saturday 1 November after an ecstatic morning program at Tallinns Hare Krishna temple capped off by my giving a lecture on the Srimad Bhagavatam, we drove 210 kilometers east from Tallinn to Estonias border with Russia, to the border city of Narva to do a home program for the local Hare Krishna community. The cold weather was more than offset by the wonderful, warm welcome we received from the devotees upon our arrival. The living room of Antons small Soviet era apartment could hardly accommodate the many guests. So everyone squeezed in as tightly as possible utilizing every square inch of space. In this way we were able to get almost everyone into the room leaving only a few to join the kirtan and hear the lecture from outside in the hall. After a rousing Hare Krishna kirtan I explained to the assembled devotees how the Krishna consciousness movement must now take the leadership role on this planet to guide the human society in all spheres of activity since the current world leaders are completely unqualified and incompetent to give peace, happiness, and prosperity to the earths people. Following my lecture there was a wonderful and enlivening question and answer session as well. We had to make the program brief so that we could get back to Tallinn in time for my evening lecture at the Hare Krishna temple there. In this way our day was super charged with nectar and we could feel the sublime satisfaction of knowing that we had fully engaged our day in the service of Srila Prabhupada and Lord Caitanya. This is the perfection of the human form of life. Sankarshan Das Adhikari Have Questions or Need Further Guidance?
