My name is Mansi Patel (Manasi Ganga Devi Dasi). I was born and raised in Surat, Gujarat, India. I later immigrated to Toronto, Canada, where I lived for 15 years and became connected with ISKCON Toronto. Four years ago, I moved to Waycross, Georgia, USA, and have continued my journey in Krishna consciousness.
My favorite Deities are Shree Shree Radha Shyamasundara of New Raman Reti Dham, ISKCON Alachua. Their beautiful darshan, loving service, and the devotion of Their devotees deeply inspire my heart.
I wish to study deity worship because I see it as a beautiful path to develop a more intimate relationship with Krishna. Understanding the meaning behind each service, offering, and procedure allows one to move beyond simply performing activities and instead serve with awareness, gratitude, and genuine affection. My desire is to learn how to serve the Lordships at home with greater attention, humility, and devotion, while cultivating the proper consciousness of a servant. Through this learning, I hope to bring more sincerity into my daily seva and deepen my remembrance, love, and connection with Shree Shree Radha-Shyamasundar.
