Ancient flutes in the air, soft grass under us, Aztec stones at our backs, and a simple heart chant together in the Avenue of the Dead. Join Madhumangala Dasa and Srimati Dasi (Mark and Maria) and our dear friend Caro in Teotihuacan for a very gentle Gauranga breathing practice, some jaguar sounds, a little laughter, and a soft reminder to enjoy the moment you are in right now, just as it is. We are sharing how this wandering, juicy little pilgrimage turned into a daily relationship with sacred names, teachers, and friends. We talk about receiving new names from our guru, what it feels like to finally have a “supreme female friend” to serve, why Harinam Sankirtan is like a Vedic “Hallelujah,” and how daily prayers with you all became a simple way to pause, breathe, and remember who we are. There is Mexico sun, goofy jokes, Caro behind the camera, and a lot of gratitude for the kindness we keep meeting on the road. We chant, we talk about gratitude, fasting, allergies, dogs, Kiki the cat, and where this wandering Juicy MagiK caravan is heading next in Mexico and Central America.
