Conviction

I saw one devotee in ISKCON chennai, whom I was not familiar, atleast I havent interacted with him.He was distributing dhonna prasadam for all the public. He was making everyone (doesnt matter whoever you are) to chant mahamantra loudly and then he gave the prasadam. Some of them took time, the queue were growing big but he dint seem to bother all those things. Sometimes when the kids were in the line, he taught them word by word and made them chant.I was also waiting on the queue.

My pb got his prasad and came out and asked me did you hear what that prabhu answered the mataji who asked "why are you making us chant louder?" I said "No" (anyways i was very focussed on getting my prasad) .My prabhu continued he answered "Krsna is saying us to do. Do it. Chant loudly." That lady dint know what to tell him. She chanted once, took the prasad and left.

I felt coooooool...when my turn came, I listened to him, told one time mahamantra and took the prasadam from him.

All glories to the Supreme Lord Krsna !
All glories to Srila Prabhupada !
All glories to Srila Gurudeva !
