It is truly another milestone of achievement that we can all be proud of, and we are certain Srila Prabhupada is smiling upon us.<\/p>\n<p>The three month marathon being organized by Sadbhuja prabhu in preparation for the Chakra installations continues unabated. The Nrsimhadeva Dome Kalash is almost complete and the Main Dome Kalash is fast approaching completion. Between the Kalash mounting, painting and fastening the dome ribs and stars, assembling both Chakras and working on the Chatris, all the transcendental sevaites are working around the clock to bring the marathon to its completion by February 7th for the Grand Installation Ceremony of the Chakras onto Sri Sri Radha Madhava\u2019s and Lord Nrsimhadeva\u2019s Domes.<\/p>\n<p>Devotees are also encouraged to take advantage of the once-in-a-lifetime seva opportunity to sponsor the abhisheka of one or both Chakras. Many devotees have already done so and we are fast approaching our goal to get 1008 sponsors for each abhisheka. Don\u2019t miss this opportunity. Go to this link to find out how you can sponsor an abhisheka:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"0DI5ce0Mok\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/tovp.org\/donate\/once-in-a-lifetime-chakra-abhisheka-seva-opportunity\/\">A Once-in-a-Lifetime Chakra Abhisheka Seva Opportunity<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" src=\"https:\/\/tovp.org\/donate\/once-in-a-lifetime-chakra-abhisheka-seva-opportunity\/embed\/#?secret=0DI5ce0Mok\" data-secret=\"0DI5ce0Mok\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" title=\"&#8220;A Once-in-a-Lifetime Chakra Abhisheka Seva Opportunity&#8221; &#8212; Temple of the Vedic Planetarium\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Here are the current statistics for the Chakra abhishekas:<\/p>\n<p>Lord Nrsimhadeva Chakra \u2013 643 sponsors<br \/>\nRadha Madhava Chakra \u2013 506 sponsors<\/p>\n<p>This inspiring installation trailer video will give you an idea of what\u2019s to come at the installation ceremony: https:\/\/youtu.be\/ljUaWuXgD8U<\/p>\n<p>Below is a general invitation flyer for the ceremony which you can copy and share with other devotees online and print and post at your local temple.
