PRACODAYAT: The Meaning of Encouragement 

 

 

Vaisnavism is a culture of encouragement. The sastras encourage us to reach our highest potential and to go back to Godhead. From within our hearts, Krsna encourages us inspiring our intellect, showing us the way back to Godhead. The Guru encourages us by illuminating the sastra and encouraging us to surrender to Krsna. Join us to get encouraged in our process to surrender to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

 

Speaker: HG Vaisesika Das

Venue: ISKCON of Silicon Valley

1965 Latham Street Mountain View CA 94040

Join us to learn the art of living in today's world.
