Question: One of my friends has this question that every time she gets a new Tulasi at home, it doesn’t stay so long. Just for a week, something and dies. This has been going on for about two years till now. Before there was one Tulasi plant which grew very nicely and it was removed due to some changes in their home. She feels this is happening due to removing that Tulasi devi from home. How to understand this guru maharaj? Is she cursed by Vrnda devi not to grow again?

Guru Maharaj: I don’t know what she did with the Tulasi, if she threw it or disrespected in some way, that naturally could be offensive. She should bow down and worship the new Tulasi, putting water every day, arati, beg for forgiveness and hopefully Tulasi will stay....
