Initiation ceremony in the ISKCON temple in Ulan Ude in Siberia, Russia (Album with photos)
Bhakti Chaitanya Swami: In the photo, there is Srinatha Pandita prabhu, the chief priest. He is a yajna expert and can do a whole yajna with many mantras without referring to a book. This morning we had a small initiation ceremony in the ISKCON temple in Ulan Ude in Siberia, Russia. The movement has been active there for many years but has had difficulty becoming strongly established. But still, there is a nice group of devotees here, trying to practice and spread Krishna consciousness to the best of their ability.
