Members of Parliament and police in Iskcon Auckland\u2019s Holi (Album with photos) Members of Parliament and police in Iskcon Auckland’s Holi (Album with photos)
\nAuckland NZ held its annual Holi festival today with over 10 thousand guests turning up to our hare Krsna temple in Riverhead. We served out over 5 thousand plates of prasadam and distributed lots of Srila Prabhupada\u2019s books.
\nWe started the Holi festival 5 years ago with around 1500 guests, the feedback is Super positive lots of the guest saying it one of the best festivals they have been to and are planning to return the following year, they are amazed how they can enjoy a day without any intoxication and love the vegetarian meal.
\nOne of the many great things about our Holi festival is that we can hold it at our temple so its full on Hare Krsna.
\nThe guests got the opportunity to have Darshan of Lord and hear the Kirtan which goes on in the temple during the day.
\nThe local members of Parliament were the special guests, and the police always enjoy spending the day with us and they are favorites for throwing the colors at. Also, the Fire Brigade turn up each year and spray the guest with colored water.
