Dear Friends,
Hope this meets you all well.
The principle of Ayurveda is that we cannot digest food if we have no hunger. Digestion is the key to good health. Similarly the grace of God is key to an auspicious life. Grace is all-pervading, just like the sunlight is all-pervading, but we have become so habituated to live in dark places that we do not sufficiently access the divine grace. In order to digest and assimilate that grace we have to be hungry for it. Because there are powers beyond our intelligence, beyond our physical strength, beyond our will power, it is important that we seek for the grace of the Divine. This grace cannot be attained simply by our efforts. But when we are sincere, serious, humble and are eager to serve the Supreme Lord and all living beings through Him, with no ulterior motives, then Lord Krishna, the source of all grace, is eager to deliver us.
One of the ways, we can easily attain the grace of the Lord is by associating with people who are sincerely pursuing the path of devotion. Such sincere practitioners congregate at the temple of the Supreme Lord and just by hearing the transcendental messages of the scriptures in the association of such devotees, one gets the grace of the Lord. With great happiness in our hearts, we welcome you to the ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV) this week for our events.

Since then, this weekly Sunday Love Feast festival is celebrated in all Hare Krishna temples around the world. We extend a warm and hearty welcome to you, your friends and family. Please join us at ISV for this wonderful event every Sunday.
Furthermore, to offer sumptuous prasadam to the devotees is an auspicious activity.
