Karthik Month has started.... ISV this week

Dear esteemed ISV Devotees,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

The Karthik month started from Tuesday Oct 11 and everyone is planning to make incremental progress.

As part of CHAD - Chapter a Day initiative you can chant Chapter 8 from Bhagvad Gita everyday (Sanskrit or English Transalation or both) for the entire month of Karthik.

You can also listen everyday in Vaisesika Prabhu voice by downloading the MP3 from:

Also, i am enclosing the Chapter 8 in CHAD format in this email.

Please register at chad.isv@gmail.com if you are doing CHAD in Karthik or let Gandharvika Radha Mataji know abouit it (sanatanagandharvika@gmail.com )

Every Weekday and Saturday evening we are having special Damodara Aarti at 8 pm providing all devotees Wick lamps, to offer to the Lordships. This is one of the most auspicious activities recommended in scriptures and we wish you take benefits from this.

IMPORTANT PARKING INSTRUCTIONS: We will NOT be able to park in any of the

spaces in front of the shops next to the temple. (Including the Check Cashing

 store,  the barber shop, etc.) We will also not be able to park along the wall

adjacent  to the temple. The landlord of these shops has a new parking policy

 and will tow  any cars parked there that are not patrons of their shops.

Street side parking is available on streets near the intersection of Del

Mar  Ave and Lynnhaven Dr (for example on Lynnhaven Dr, on Roenoke Way, on Del

 Mar  Ave, etc.). If you park your car in front of a home, please do not block

 their  driveway. Del Mar Ave runs parallel to Bascom ave. There is a small

drive  way  (belongs to Streetlight Records; you can see this on Google maps

satellite  view)  that joins Bascom and Del Mar Ave located in between Lynnhaven

Dr and Roenoke Way. This is a short cut way to walk to the temple after parking

your  car.
