Giriraj Swami and devotees in Carpinteria and Durban shared memories and realizations of Tamal Krishna Goswami Maharaja via Skype.
“One of the main things I learned from Goswami Maharaja was that love is not just sentimental words and offering obeisances and garlands but it is expressed in the details of one’s service—details like serving one dhokla at a time to ensure that you get them warm, and to not speculate. I was thinking to bring a few at a time so I could leave you and Goswami Maharaja alone to discuss privately as far as possible, but I was speculating, and he immediately cut through all of that. He taught us not to speculate and to show our love in the details of our service.
