Dear friends and
prabhus,
I hope you are well. I would like to eagerly invite
you to Gaura Purnima festival on Saturday 30th March to
celebrate the wonderful appearance of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, the
most merciful avatar of Divine Love. We hope you will be able to come
and join us to make this a joyful festival to remember, the more
people who come and participate, the louder and more powerful the
kirtan will resound.
Lord Caitanya is Krishna Himself, who
appeared as a devotee to teach us how to love and serve, especially
through the sublime process of chanting Maha-Mantra. He gave a very
simple formula by which we can revive our dormant Krishna
consciousness: chanting, dancing and feasting. This is the
easiest and most effective way to achieve spiritual success in the
present age of quarrel and hypocrisy. He also taught us to
spread this Krishna consciousness movement to every town and village
and in this way, increase the ocean of transcendental bliss.
To
this end, we will be congregating first in George Square, Glasgow
City Centre at 12pm for an ecstatic Maha Harinam (street
chanting), so please join us and bring your dancing shoes!
After
the Harinam we will be holding a grand festival back at the temple
beginning at 4pm including lots of kirtans, bhajans, arati and a
sumptuous feast. Please come and bring your friends, the more
the merrier. Lets make this the biggest and best yet. Gouranga!

look forward to seeing you soon,
