WEDNESDAY, August 27 - HH Hanumat Presak Swami and HG Gadhadhar Pandit Das EDUCATION IN ISKCON "Without education nobody has any social position and all our students in Krishna Consciousness are expected to be preachers. So preachers must have sufficient education because they have to meet with so many opposing elements. Education should be continued at the same time chanting should be continued. There will be no difficulty." [Letter to: Indira and Ekayani - San Francisco 17 December, 1967] Speaker: HH Hanumat Presak Swami and HG Gadhadhar Pandit Das Time: 6.00 – 8.00pm Discourse will be followed by Sandhya Arati and Prasadam SATURDAY, August 30 - Lord Kapila's instructions on the Movements of Living Entities In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna describes the process of birth as one of the four fundamental miseries of material life. Ordinarily, birth of a living entity is considered to be a happy and welcome event in this world. In the 3rd canto of Srimad Bhagavatam, Lord Kapila sheds light on the actual nature of birth in this world. Hearing from Lord Kapila on this topic makes one's steadfast in purpose to end the process of birth and death, once and for all.   Speaker: H.G. Vrindavan Priya Das 7.30 - 8. 15 am: Sri Brahma Samhita 8. 15 - 10.00 am: Srimad Bhagavatam Discourse on "Lord Kapila's instructions on the Movements of Living Entities" 10.00 am: Guru Puja and Prasadam SUNDAY, August 31 - Offering with Love and Devotion Offering a leaf, a flower or a fruit with love and devotion - Krsna accepts it. This is His Promise. The ingredients, skills and mood are important aspects in making a offering. Let's understand theses aspects. Speaker: H.G. Shankaranada Das. 4.00 – 5.45pm: Lecture on "Offering with Love and Devotion" 6.00pm: Arotik followed by Sandhya Arati and Prasadam If you would like to sponsor a Sunday Feast, to commemorate a special occasion (like birthday or wedding anniversary) or just in general, please write to us at isvconnect@gmail.com.
