Dear Friends and Patrons
Hope this meets you all well.
Nothing is impossible for the Lord and therefore nothing is impossible for the one who takes shelter in the dust of the lotus feet of the Lord.
There is no dearth to festivities at ISV. It's a place of sheer joy where the heart is filled with love and the lives are enriched with devotion. We invite you to join us with your family and friends this coming weekend as we celebrate the appearance day of our dear leader, H.G Vaisesika Prabhu on Saturday (typically referred to as Vyasa Puja) followed by a spiritual initiation (diksa) ceremony on Sunday where our friends from the community are formally accepting a Guru to advance to the next phase of their spiritual lives. Don't miss it!
This week we have:
Saturday: Vyasa Puja celebrations of H.G Vaisesika Das
Sunday: Initiation Ceremony & Sunday Feast Talk by H.G Vaisesika Das
Watch us Live! In case you are unable to make it, you can also join us through audio conference or watch live broadcast. The details are available at www.IskconSiliconValley.com.

SUNDAY, SEP 10 - INITIATION & SUNDAY FEAST
It is our language, either spoken or written, that moves and shapes our lives. In fact, all creations, including the creation of our universe, are preceded by language. What then is the power of repeating the Maha-mantra or the Gayatri mantras, which emanate from the spiritual world? There will be a number of devotees taking Harinam initiation from H.G Vaisesika Prabhu on this day.
We cordially welcome to our Sunday feast program this week which includes Kirtan, Krishna Katha, Arotik and delicious prasadam!
3:00pm - 5:00pm: Initiation Ceremony & Talk by H.G Vaisesika Das
5:00pm: Sandhya Aartik followed by Announcements and Prasadam
If you would like to sponsor a Sunday Feast, to commemorate a special occasion (like birthday or wedding anniversary) or just in general, please write to us at isvco...@gmail.com. We will offer the bhoga to the Deities and serve prasadam to all the devotees in your name. Donation amount for the Sunday Feast is $301 only
