New Delhi’s District Judges Receive Guidance from Bhagavad-gita As It Is (Album with photos and videos)
\nSrila Prabhupada once stated,’Someday the judges will be wearing tilak.’ Well in the present day we do have a step towards just that. Every Wednesday Ramanroop Prabhu, Iskcon New Delhi’s minister for foreign affairs has a home program at alternating judges homes. These judges act from within mediation services to life and death sentencing for criminals, all the while catering to political prisoners on all levels.
\nThey participated with a Tulasi, Gaura Arotik, Nrsimhadeva Puja, kirtan, bhajans(several Judges were quite accomplished harmonium players, one senior most magistrate played the khol), and reading 3 verses and purports from Bhagavad-gita. One Brajabasi judge from Mathura led the chanting of one round of japa, and got so absorbed that we actually chanted around 3 rounds.
\nEven there was so much excitement in the chanting that they were singing along with the lead singer as well as the refrain.
\nThe Gita reading was shared with quite exacting questions being raised almost as though we were in a courtroom! It was delightful that the sharpest governmental minds were refining and bathing their minds in this original law book of the Lord.<\/p>\n
Prasadam became a highlight and after the meal some of our public servants who stayed to the end partook in a group picture.<\/p>\n
Jokingly I quipped,’Here is where material law meets spiritual law.’ Everyone laughed…I guess tilak in the courtroom is next…
