Paoho.

Thanks you very much, Maharaja.

I am Pablo of the Parikrama, from Spain.

My thoughts about Vraja-Mandala Parikrama...I have been thinking, and I have been watching my " treasures ", the VRAJ MANDAL PARIKRAMA 2003 GUIDE BOOK, the SRI SRI 84 KROSH VRAJAMANDAL MANCHITRA DARSHAN by Baba Sri Swarupa Das Maharaja, photos, THE COLOR GUIDE TO ( RADHA KUNDA, GOVARDHANA, and VRNDAVANA ) by Rajasekhara Das Brahmacari, and the images of my memories.

Is so dificult choose, separate. Very strongs feelings on all sides, but, being natural, there are things that I always remember more;

Bhajan Kutir of Rupa Goswami, the one that is in the middle of the fields, a little hut.

He wrote intense stories there!

Radha Kunda, together the tonge of Govardhana, where the blood come out.

Puspa samadhi of Gaura Kisora das Babaji.

The Yamuna and her banks.

The Bhajana Kutir of Sanatana Goswami??, next where we camped, a school??, there was a little house-temple, nothing special, with one old Brahmana, doing the Sundara arati at nigth. NO sound sophistication, hitting two Karatalas, an old man singing, the aroma of ghee, the ligths and shadows, the ecstatic face of continuos services, his years and the raw devotion. 

ASA - M/P -   !!! ! !

The beautiful and wonderful deity of Syamasundara of Syamananda Pandita, I love he.

The intimate and wonderful Rasa-Lila arena, Seva-kunja. My body hairs stand on end to make the trip. It seemed that at any time, before an unforgivable offense, the hundreds of monkeys go to carve me, but, instead, was intense but quite, beautiful. Surrealistic.

The new donated ISKCON temple of Vrinda Devi and her Kunda. All full of Tulasi.

The incredible Maha-prasadam of Krsna-Balarama Mandir...cupcakes-muffins!!.

The Samadhi of Rupa goswami and other.

The towers of Radha-Madana-Mohana Temple, that color !!, it seems the lust of pure heart.

The Joker and beautiful Radharamana of Gopala Bhatta Goswami.

The wonderful Kesi-ghata.

The wonderful and mistic Vamsi-Vata and the Murtis and Salagram-silas of Gopiswara-Mahadeva.

The Govindaji Temple that You taught me, with the next small temple of Hanuman, the Protector.

The pink Dresses of Krsna-Balarama Mandir.

Radharani in the Krsna-Balarama. Is so young, I think that is the only place that I see She so young, so beautiful.

The Prabodhananda Sarasvati samadhi. 

ASA - M/P -   . . .     .           .                   .!.. 

The rare and surprising Kaliya-ghata, with his tree.

The back side of the Krsna-Balarama mandir, next to go-sala of ISKCON.

Of course, Govardhana and his Balarama sila, together with Govardhana sila.

The sugar cande of the Vrajavasis, and their chapatis.

The hill where we stop and could see the place where Akrura saw Krsna-Balarama expand on Vishnu before gone.

I always give thanks to Yamuna for letting me across her water swimming. I will never forget that.

And finally, the forest, particularly at morning, with the parrots and birds, and the fog, or at evening next the banks of Yamuna, with the condensation.

The Majestic Kusum-Sarovar, and the wonderful rhyme and letter of Damodarastaka.

Is impossible to describe all what I mean.

At your feet.

HARE KRSNA.

By following the Instructions of Rupa Goswami!  Nectar of Instruction!

Soldier!   Are you changing 16-rounds?!
