Hare Krsna Dear Devotees,
Please accept our respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada,
We would like to start with a big thanks to our beloved leader and spiritual master His Grace Vaisesika Prabhu and his dear wife Her Grace Nirakula mataji, who have super busy schedules, yet they magnanimously agree to devote half a month for us, so we can get the benefit of Sri Dhama Mayapura to the fullest! It was due to their causeless mercy that we were able to visit Yoga Pitha, Srivas Angan, Advaita Bhavan and Gadahara Angan, the Ganges and Nandana Acharya's House, Nrsimha Palli, Samadhi of Jagannath Dasa Babaji, Vishnu Priya’s temple in Navadweep, Caitanya Math, the house of Murari Gupta, Shantipur the house of Advaita Acarya, the seventh Goswami Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s house Surabhi Kunj and to the Jagannath temple . This took care of the morning halves. In the evening we had even more nectar flowing as everyone assembled in the Academy Hall for more Krsna Katha.
Our special thanks to His Grace Navina Nirada Prabhu and his team including Shrisha Prabhu whose Vaisnava Academy is like second home to us. Hari Bol!
We would like to dedicate this year’s yatra to the kids in our group. Their behavior was impeccable, their enthusiasm catchy and their service attitude laudable. They were there everywhere: as flag bearers, kirtaneers, kartalists, mrdanga players, prasadam servers, errands boys,… the list is endless. Hari Bol!
We would also like to thank the numerous devotees in USA and in India (some helped from remote) to make this yatra a success. A Big Hari Bol to all of the volunteers and the participants without whom the yatra could not be a success!
Thanks to the efforts of Ramananada-sakha Prabhu,Vinod Prabhu, Nilesh Prabhu, Jamuna Mtj, Rajesh Virani Prabhu, and Yadurani mtj we have pictures, audio and video recordings of this memorable event.
The videos are huge in size and still need extensive editing. We have got just a couple ready. Recently our dear Godbrother Madana Murari Prabhu volunteered to help edit the rest of the videos. He took training this weekend and is already started to work on it. He will continue to post them here. Thank you Madana Murari Prabhu we deeply appreciate your help!! Please do note that this is a very time consuming process and we are looking for more volunteers. Audio files for the videos are available from here.
If you can’t wait for the video to be ready, then unedited audio files are available fromhere.
In Bhagavad-gita 18.48 Lord Krsna says: Every endeavor is covered by some fault, just as fire is covered by smoke.
Both Mukharavinda and I are aware that we are full of faults. We would like to take this opportunity to beg for your forgiveness for all the mistakes that we are sure we have committed. We hope and pray you will forgive us.
Hoping to get an opportunity to serve you better at the next yatra.
Sri Dhama Mayapura ki Jaya!
Hari Bol!
Your servants,
Mukharavinda Dasa and Shraddha-devi Dasi
