This was the 17th annual Rathayatra here. The weather had been really bad, with lots of rain for days, but this morning the rain eased off and we managed to hold the festival with no problems.

Srila Prabhupada: Because people are suffering for want of this knowledge, therefore our Krsna consciousness movement is the only movement – I can declare very proudly -which can actually do some benefit to the human society.

Harinama by ISKCON Ljubljana devotees, Slovenia, 10 March 2018 (Album with photos)

Therefore, when a devotee who has taken shelter of the Lord’s lotus feet chants the holy name of Krsna with genuine love, the Supreme Personality of Godhead can never give up the heart of such a devotee. One who ...
