## Resource

A quiet hilltop in Gjirokastër, a funny climb through the market path, a sweet old woman asking, "Who is Krishna?", and a very real reflection on peace, memory, and prayer in Albania. In this JuicyMagiK On the Go episode, Srimati Dasi and Madhumangala dasa share a tender little travel moment that turns into something deeper. There's laughter, there's chanting, there are candy "lovefare weapons," and there's also the weight of history, as they speak from a place marked by suffering and ask what peace actually looks like, not just as an idea, but as a lived practice. Along the way, they speak about kirtan, sacred food, simple kindness, and the small ways devotion can meet people right where they are. Soft, human, a little playful, and very much on the road.
