Harinam Utsav 2018 Mumbai (Album of photos)
“Come one, come all, chant the names of Lord Krsna,” said Lord Nityananda even to the most downtrodden. This holy name of the lord is non-different than him. Chanting his glories with all your heart in the association of like-minded devotees will yield the ultimate satisfaction for Lord Gauranga. Here are some moments of sankirtan we enjoyed.

Decades ago, HH Indradyumna Swami met HH Vishnujana Swami and other devotees for the first time in his life right at the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. That started his spiritual journey. Many of us have heard of the famous 'Silver Spoon' story. So it was the dear-most desire of our heart that when Maharaja is in Michigan after such a long time, we would visit that place with him and hear the epic event that changed not only his, but in due course of time, many lives on this planet. So...

Giridhari Swami: Devotees from Hong Kong, China and the Philippines came together at Vraja Eco Village to glorify Srila Prabhupada through their spoken offerings and song. Some devotees wrote offerings in advance, while others spoke extemporaneously.

I was reminded of what Srila Prabhupada wrote about this own spiritual master in the preface pages of the Srimad-Bhagavatam:
"H...

Mukhya devi dasi: Delhi temple is so alive, there are about 200 devotees at mangal arati daily, I think 150 are blissful brahmacaris. It's quite impressive. But more impressive are the kirtans, I think the best singers in ISKCON might be in this one temple. Every kirtan of the morning program is led by a different devotee, and each one sings beautifully, words perfectly pronounced, and only one mrdanga and one pair of kartals, increasing the prayerful mood. Those brahmacaris come from several Indian templ...

On his way home from work on Friday, September 21,
Dvarkadhish das was in a car accident. All we know is that he had severe head injury and trauma to the brain. The doctors had to perform emergency surgery. After the surgery they said his brain function was at 1% and there was no hope for recovery.

We had a truly remarkable experience yesterday to serve the Lord alongside so many stalwarts and dedicated devotees who came together to beautify the Temple room. The painting project was a great success not only in giving it a much-needed facelift but also provided a great opportunity to come closer to each other as family members united under the shelter of Srila Prabhupāda in the auspicious occasion of Thakura Bhaktivinoda’s appearance.
