WEDNESDAY, Jan 14 - Ecstatic Krishna Katha by HG Vaisesika Das "Every day and night we are hearing something. There is television. There is radio. There are newspapers. There are so many things to hear about. But that is not the hearing that will help us to become self-realized.You should devote your time to hearing and chanting about Vishnu, Krishna. If you simply do this then you shall become free from this material entanglement." - Srila Prabhupada Time: 6.00 – 8.00pm 6:00pm: Ecstatic Krishna Katha by HG Vaisesika Prabhu 8.00pm: Arati followed by Prasadam SATURDAY, Jan 17 - Overcoming Pride It's hard to deal with failures in life. It takes a lot of tolerance and spiritual wisdom to remain calm and march forward towards our goals in life.  Even harder than that is to deal with success in life, as it takes a lot more tolerance and a lot more spiritual wisdom to remain humble and continue to serve without pride. In this session, we'll discuss some of the instructive verses and stories from Srimad Bhagavatam that help us avoid becoming prisoners of success. 7.30am: Brahma Samita followed by lecture on Srimad Bhagavatam by HG. Govinda Caran Das SUNDAY Jan 18 -Four Kinds of People who surrender to Krsna In the Bhagavd Gita, Lord Krsna talks about four kinds of people who begin to render devotional service unto Him. They are called sukritinah or those who obey the rules and regulations of scriptures, the moral and social laws and more or less devoted to the Supreme Lord. In this session, we will hear about them and their purpose towards rendering devotional service.  4:00pm to 6:00pm:  "Four kinds of people who surrender to Krsna" - Bhagavad Gita Discourse by H.G Srivas Pandit Das 6:00pm Sandhya Aartik followed by Announcements and then Sunday Feast 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.
