Dear Mataji
Hare Krsna
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada
One week ago we had a disciple meeting and a decision was taken on how to celebrate the event and disciples were given responsibilities of their service on that day. On the Vyasa Puja day some devotees were busy preparing Ekadasi feast, some were decorating the temple, the Asana of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudev.
The celebration started with noon aarti followed by kirtanas and reading of Vyasa Puja offerings. We also had the opportunity to hear the glories of Guru Maharaj from senior devotees and the temple president, His Grace Vijay Das Prabhu of Sri Sri RadhaGolokananda temple. The latter told us that the Bhumi Puja ceremony followed by putting the first stone of this temple was performed by His Holiness Lokanath Swami and devotees louded a big HARIBOL.
We also had the opportunity to hear Guru Maharaj and His instructions. The ceremony ended with Pushpanjali, Guru Puja. A sumptuous Ekadasi prasaad was served for about 800 plates for all guests, disciples and devotees.
The pictures of this event was already sent to you by His Grace Kaunteya Prabhu.
Disciples were very enthusiasm on that day and we pray to Krsna to keep Guru Maharaj in good and sound health.
Your servant
Mahamanjari Devi Dasi
