A young teen indian boy stood by the table suddenly & i asked him what is ur name.
He replied " Caitanya" I became instantly happy & showed him Caitanya MahaPrabhu Photo.
Then i explained him about bhagavad gita & the concept of soul.I asked him holding his hand
" what is this "
He replied " This is my hand "
Then i pointed at his nose & he said " This is my nose"
then i pointed to his eyes & he said " this is my eyes"
& Then i asked the billion dollar question " THEN where are YOU ??"
He started laughing & then i showed him the soul transmigration picture & explained him " we not this body but the soul within
the body" I was so happy explaining him because he was simply grasping every concept with good understanding like a Sponge
Later he told me that he is reading Harry Potter So i told him i have here every book on philosophy & only one story book
ie: Krishna Book & showing him i tried to convince him to take it but he said his mother won't buy
seeing his eagerness i said " then cry to her to buy it as you do for a chocolate" .
He then went to his mother & they seemed to have a discussion
Later as they were getting into the car his eyes met mine & it said that he wanted the book but mother is not listening.
So i took the Krishna Book & went to her & said " Your child like this book " & i explained it containing Krishna pastimes showing the pictures in it .
She said " Oh we have Bhagavad gita " i said this is bhagavatam the stories of Dhruva, prahalad & narshima comes from these
Then she immediately bought the book & i put the book in his hand & he smiled & wisked into the car saying
" I am going to read it right away"
I suddenly felt jealous about him because he accepted the Absolute Truth so easily & at such a young age.
But i am happy to be an instrument in connecting Caitanya With Lord Caitanya.
