Mathura Trip

Just came from a trip to the land of Lord Krishna's Birth. Got tip of the life from the driver we hired to get us there. We asked him to also be the part of the PARIKRAMA we was about to do in GOVARDHAN. But he refused to do so. We asked him that you might be visiting this holy place at least once in a month. Than you are so lucky person to get DARSHAN of krishna in such short periods. He said its not like as you think. The driver community has a tradition of not visiting temples when they escort someone to that place. Its not good. As he said there is another person who is paying for the trip, we are just the medium to take them to the destination. So as we are not paying for the trip we don't visit any of the temples. We may go to the same place more than twice in a week but don't get our feet in those temples. We only visit them when we invest our money to come to that place, not otherwise.
It touched me so deep inside. The people who live on the grass root level of INDIA can have such a high thinking. This was the best incident which happened on this trip. Well after such a long time i visited a temple, was good experience in that regard also. Feet are still in pain by giving PARIKRAMA of GOVARDHAN, but who cares now. Njoyed the trip to the fullest and got such a nice thought of life.
