Dear Friends,
Hope this meets you all well.
Thank you visiting the ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV) last week as we participated in the World Holy Name week and experienced the bliss of holy names through our discourses, kirtans and harinaam. We would like to extend a warm invitation to you to join us for yet another eventful week at ISV packed with nectar.
Tomorrow, September 25th, marks the anniversary of Srila Prabhupada's arrival in America back in 1965. He came to America at the age of seventy with no money but with a suitcase full of spiritual literatures, the wealth of which is immeasurable. He single handedly preached the message of Bhagavad Gita in the streets of New York and slowly after many struggles started the International Society for Krsna Consciousness in 1966. He fulfilled the prophecy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu that one day in every town and village, the holy names of Lord Krsna will be sung. We are eternally indebted to Srila Prabhupada for the immense wealth of Krsna consciousness he has given us,
This week at ISV, join us as we honor our dear Srila Prabhupada and his dear disciple and offer our gratitude to them.

SPECIAL KIRTAN EVENT WITH THE MAYAPURIS
The Mayapuris have crash-landed into the kirtan/chant genre, quickly becoming the most talked-about group in this growing scene of kirtan music. Their story starts in the quiet backcountry of North Central Florida, Alachua, a small village-esque town known to some as the capital of the underground grassroots-kirtan movement in the West. With their debut album, Mridanga (June 22, 2010/Mantralogy) they have brought youthful and new energy to kirtan. Please join us for this unique experience of unheard bliss and energy.
Venue: ISKCON of Silicon Valley
