Hare Krsna.

ASA[e] vad, sannyasa; and sankirtan, hari-nam.

Aindra Das told us that Brahmananda Das told him that Srila Prabhupada told him that if a Sannyasi does not have a Danda, he should have an umbrella or cane.

Since Brother Ass was a little chld we have always been attached to walking sticks.

Like retreivers always have a stick in their mouth.

We looked up Cane Fighting on the internet (cowherd boys have mock fights all the time). It is wonderful.

Hope we never have a real one except for Krsna.

Sad we were when the airlines allowed canes on the aiplane but not full size umbrellas. 😕

(Actually if you just declare a cane as a Personal Mobility Device it is legal everywhere. s/a Google, "Fighting Canes")

If permitted, then we could of had an umbrella which would have been a walking stick in one, and even better is a colorful one, because then it looks great on Hari-nama Sankirtan!

HnS is five times better with flags (and even parrots on perches chanting Hare Krsna when public offers them crackers).

CCD/SDD sent us the attached letter! Something the carry while we strut around the Transit-lounge.
