Guyana
 
Down With The Sin!

At the location of a weekend marketplace Day Three of padayatra was held. I share the stage with two senior members of the Krishna community, Paramatma and Haridas, both of Guyana. The theme of our discussion basically defined what is padayatra. One way to describe it is "a journey with feet and heart".

I am so impressed with the receptivity of people as we go on proceeding through the villages, and also of their innocence and simplicity. It is something to be admired. The dichotomy is the trash found in the canals and beaches, otherwise I love the place.
      
Here's another plus: like Cuba, fruit and vegetables are organic and are not genetically modified. Fresh food is in abundance. Eating becomes a big attraction. Delivered from the home of Paramatma are, papaya, guava, black spice bottle mangoes. There's Suriname cherries and new to me are these small tasty dunks and karambola. Mostly eatables are served on lotus leaves. It's Paradise!

When all  is good and flavourful, why must we cater to the forces of artificial foods? I don't care to use the word "demons" on people, but in the case of those companies that have tampered with earth's food sources, I believe that the word is most appropriately used. Down with the sin!
 
May Guyana stay clear of their nonsense!
 
And may the Source be with you!
