We had experienced so many exciting adventures with Prabhupada, dashing from place to place in such rapid order — now it feels like a holiday, a vacation from crowded cities, reclined at Prabhupada’s feet while he sprawls in his easy chair on the front porch [in Vishakhapatnam] and laughs and kids with his buddies, watching hummingbirds and seagulls play, noon sun shimmering on a chartreuse sea… Each morning, Prabhupada leads his throng of merry pranksters along the beach while we pick up shells and skip flat rocks. He tells us of Lord Chaitanya, how much He loved this coast, how the Lord and His devotees would swim and play in this sea in great jubilation. Nanda Kumar asks Prabhupada, “Isn’t this really just sense gratification, this playing around in the ocean?” Prabhupada replies, “The sun is there — Krishna is the light of the sun. Ocean is there — Krishna is the taste of water. You are surrounded by Krishna. How can you forget Krishna? He is all around you.”
