Twig Tooth Brush - Datong is there?
Srutakirti: When he stayed on the second floor at the Radha-Damodara temple in Vrindavan he said, "You can place a bucket of water outside on the roof, and the sun will heat it sufficiently for taking bath." That usually worked, except when the monkeys decided they wanted to drink from it and proceeded to knock over the bucket. There were countless mornings when Srila Prabhupada passed by me on the way to his bathroom. "Datong is there?" he said. When he said that, I knew it meant I had forgotten to put his twig in the bathroom so he could brush his teeth. When I was with him, Srila Prabhupada used a twig to brush his teeth, not a toothbrush. The best was from the neem tree. This was easy to get in India. You could go to a store, and buy them by the bunch.
