One year on July 4, when I was leaving the Dallas/Fort Worth airport, a large American flag flying in the wind caught my eye, and I was surprised by how happy I felt. I reflected on how fortunate we are to live in a country where we have freedom of religion, and how Srila Prabhupada said, “America has been so good to me to give me money, men—everything. I have no designation that ‘this is my country,’ but because they have given me so much facility, I cannot forget my obligation to them. I want to make them happy and through them the whole world.”
Hare Krishna.
Yours in service,
Giriraj Swami
