A sad day in Gokulam

It is truly a sad day today. After practice today, like everyday I came out of the shala to get a coconut from the sweet coconut man named Begg. Well, he was not there today and when I inquired why, I was told that he died suddenly last night of a heart attack.

I will always remember his smiling face, his hard work getting up so early every morning to supply hundreds of ashtangis with coconuts.

I don't know what else to say. It is a sad day for all of us I am sure.
