On October 12, the bullock cart padayatra reached the village of Danthalapally, which happens to be my birthplace. I had already performed harinam there many times before with other devotees. As a result there are now around ten persons doing japa regularly and a group of thirty devotees offered us a warm reception and garlanded us to the sound of a lively kirtana. On the 16th we had a program of chanting and preaching, attended by eighteen devotees and thirty villagers. Harinam Sankirtana ki jaya!
