TUESDAY, June 16 - Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura Disappearance Day Festival

THAKURA BHAKTIVINODA - The Powerhouse of Bhakti

Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura (1838 - 1914) is a prominent preceptor acharya in our succession of spiritual masters and disciples coming from Lord Krsna. He was a pioneering spiritual leader, a householder, a magistrate working in colonial India under the British rule, a prolific preacher, writer and a poet. He brought the teachings of Lord Caitanya to the world and re-opened the Marketplace of the Holy Name: Nama Hatta. He wrote over a hundred books on bhakti and thousands of devotional songs (bhajans).

In many ways, aspiring devotees of Lord Krsna today owe a significant debt to Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura for charting the course and laying the foundation for the modern-day Krsna consciousness movement. We welcome you all to join us on Tuesday night to celebrate this auspicious day wiith pomp and show.
