NEWS FROM THE BRAHMACHARY ASHRAMA
By Padmalocan dasa
It’s been a productive year in the brahmachary ashrama at New Govardhana (Iskcon Farm Community in Australia) in 2019. The ashrama is headed up by Krishna Gana dasa, who has not only been traveling around Australia catering but also took Govinda’s catering over to France to help the New Mayapur team begin their catering venture.
The happy brahmachary ashrama residents: L to R: Jiv Jago, Garuda dasa, Krishna Gana dasa, Padmalocan dasa, Giridhari dasa, and Bhakta Jack Ruhle.

Garuda dasa has been up to his old tricks pushing Srila Prabhupada’s Movement forward through his never-ending preaching, hari-namas, amazing feasts and transcendental lectures.
Jiv Jago has played a big role here at New Govardhana this year, doing all kinds of services including some big catering events, plenty of Sunday feasts and ecstatic kirtanas.
Bhakta Jack, the fresh face of the ashrama, has been doing some wonderful things – from milking and looking after the cows, paraphernalia cleaning, care for the many banana trees and many other services.
It’s also been nice having Sudama Clark visit from Mayapur. He’s been working hard on some great building projects around the farm and has been instrumental with the festival setups and decorations.
