I want to acknowledge that Jay Vijay from Brisbane passed away today. He was an ecstatic servant of the sankirtan movement and a kind and blissful Bhakti yogi. He took care of his family and led the temple community by example. I will never forget his drumming and how he reminded me of Visnujan swami.
I’m so grateful for knowing him.

Bhagavad Gita AS IT IS
2:14

O son of Kunti, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.

PURPORT EXERPT
In the proper discharge of duty, one has to learn to tolerate nonpermanent appearances and disappearances of happiness and distress. According to Vedic injunction, one has to take his bath early in the morning even during the month of Magha (January-February). It is very cold at that time, but in spite of that a man who abides by the religious principles does not hesitate to take his bath..

Jay Vijay Prabhu.

About half way through you can see his warrior tactics in a play.
