It was a very unique preaching opportunity indeed! A few weeks ago, one Chinese gentleman came to our Sunday Love Feast. He invited us to a joint celebration of all the societies, organizations and clans of Geylang Lorong 29 on the occasion of Mid-Autumn Festival which falls on the 13th of September, wherein each society, clan, etc. have to display their unique activity on stage for 5 minutes. Sundar Gopal Prabhu, our President here, accepted the invitation.
This is a Chinese traditional festival. Nevertheless, they opened up and invited all socities thus making it a multi-racial event. Dr. Fatimah Binte Abdul Lateef, the MP for Geylang Serai Community presided over the festival as Guest of Honor.
As soon as she arrived, a small girl devotee of Sri Krishna Mandir, Bhaktin Pavitraa, presented her some transcendental books of Srila Prabhupada in a nice gift pack thus making her very fortunate.Amongst all the items displayed, our item stole the show!! It was HARINAMA!!
Everybody present there really appreciated the kirtana.
One comment was particularly notable. The Event Manager commented, "How is it that your temple is full of youngsters?" All the Chinese clans comprised of old people.
This is the dynamism of Srila Prabhupada! Srila Prabhupada ki Jaya!
Srila Prabhupada ki Jaya!
