The day after Woodstock was reserved for cleanup and packing. No small feats!

If the face is an index of the mind then the following faces at Woodstock will surely reveal the bliss that everyone who came in contact with Krsna consciousness experienced.

Sixteen more festivals to go along the Baltic Sea coast. Dear Lord Nrsimha! Please watch over, protect and give strength to your valiant Vaisnava soldiers, who although exhausted after months of preaching, are determined to continue spreading the glories of the holy names!

Ever Fresh
Krsna’s Village of Peace at this years Woodstock festival in Poland exceeded the expectations of everyone. With a steady stream of people passing through our site the lines for prasadam got longer and longer, large crowds spilled out of the Mantra Yoga Tent and all other activities were fully packed. From this one can appreciate that Lord Krsna is truly ‘all-attractive.’

Diary of a Traveling Monk – Volume 14, Chapter 15
“Sacred Ground”
“I hate you people and all you stand for!” shouted the school’s headmaster. “There’s no way I will ever, and I repeat, EVER, rent this school to you during Woodstock.” With that he slammed the door, leaving Nandini dasi standing dumbstruck with no alternate accommodations for most of the 700 devotees coming for the event.
Fifteen minutes later her 4 year-old son, Alex, who was playing with his friends nearby wandered over and casually walked into the headmaster’s office. “I want to tell you something….” he began. The headmaster, startled by the youngster’s bravery, decided to listen to what he had to say.
Years later the headmaster told Nandini, “I never heard a 4 year-old speak so articulately in my life, what to speak of his convincing arguments why you people should have the school!” Back then he had granted permission for us to use the school after Alex convinced him it was the right thing to do.
That was in 2013. Since then the headmaster has welcomed us back every year during Woodstock and has become a great admirer of our movement. As always, he was even there to greet us last week when two of our buses from Ukraine and Moldova arrived at his school two days before for the twenty-third Woodstock festival……..Continue here

A Spiritual Meditation on the Upcoming Solar Eclipse
“Vedic astronomers of five thousand years ago could predict
eclipses of the sun and moon just as well as our modern astronomers can. The knowledge of the ancient astronomers went much further, however, since they understood the karmic influences of such events. Solar and lunar eclipses are generally very inauspicious, with certain rare exceptions. But just as the otherwise inauspicious Ekadasi day becomes beneficial when us.See More

Yesterday my family and I attended your event, the Festival of India, in Mielno. It was a wonderful experience.
I read about Lord Krishna as a teenager when one day, by chance, I came across a book called, “The Science of Self Realization” in a local library. I was only 10 years old at the time and it wasn’t easy reading. Even today I am still trying to grasp the deep knowledge within that book. One thing I have understood from reading it is that my present life i..See More

Today is our last festival of the summer …
“The fortunate town of Navadvipa remains on the earth. The seashore remains. The city of Jagannatha Puri remains. The holy names of Lord Krsna remain. Alas! Alas! I do not see anywhere the same kind of festival of pure love for Lord Hari. O Lord Caitanya, O ocean of mercy, will I ever see Your transcendental glory again?”
[ Srila Prabodhananda Sarasvati, Sri Caitanya Candramrita, Chapter 12, Text 140 ]

I have come to Vrindavan for a week to plan and organize our Kartika parikrama in October. We are expecting 350 devotees this year. After two intense, but fully satisfying, months on the preaching field it’s good to be back Home. Ananta Vrindavan dasa is accompanying me. Jaya Srila Prabhupada! Jaya Sri Sri Radha Syamasundara!

On the auspicious day of Radhastami we visited Raval, where Srimati Radharani made Her divine appearance and Varsana, where she lived as a young girl. We joined several other groups doing parikrama along the way. It was wonderful to be in such sacred places as the Vrajavasis celebrated their most favorite day of the year in the simple rural setting of Sri Vrindavan dhama. Jaya Sri Radhe!

Tonight I am leaving Vrinadvan and heading back to the west. I’ll join the devotees in Ukraine for a couple days for their annual yatra festival and then fly to the USA for our September ‘Discover India’ tour. Desiring a last drop of mercy before I depart, I visited Nityananda Vat this afternoon and was blessed once again to chant a few rounds on the sacred japa-mala beads of Srila Jiva Goswami.
