A SUNDAY DOUBLE HEADER ON SEPTEMBER 12th
On Sunday we had a real treat in store, two
dramas in the same evening! The second year students from
the Brindavan campus presented a drama called ‘Bhadrachala
Ramdas’. The drama begins with a group discussing
that Bhakti is the best means of pleasing the Lord.
They thus recount the story of Bhadrachala Ramdas, a staunch
devotee of Lord Rama, who won the Lord’s protection.
Ramdas, a tax collector
under a Muslim king, used some tax receipts to build a temple
for Lord Rama. For this he was imprisoned and even flogged
in prison. In a touching scene, Lord Rama and His brother
Lakshmana came in their divine form to the Muslim king and
paid off all the money owed by Ramdas, including the penalty
and interest, to protect their devotee. After the drama Swami
walked down the steps and posed for photographs with all the
students.
