The Yuga dharma for this Age of Kali is "Nama Sankirtan", the congregational chanting of Lord's names. Harinam Sankirtan, also known as Nagar Sankirtana, was inaugurated by Lord Chaitanya over 500 years ago to publicly chant these names and not only benefit oneself but also give it out freely to others. Lord Chaitanya stressed that the chanting of the Hare Krishna Maha-Mantra Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare is the easiest means of self-realization.

You are cordially invited to join us for performing the Yuga Dharma Harinam Sankirtan in Palo Alto. Please join us for a happy dance party and musical chanting of the Lord's Holy Names.

Want to experience spiritual joy? Come and hear the ever fresh and nectarean pastimes of Lord Ramachandra in the association of Vaishnavas this Saturday at ISV. 

7.30am: Brahma Samita Recitation followed by Ramayana Reading led by H.G Gandharvika Radha Devi Dasi

SATURDAY, March 21: The Complete Yoga Package

You are invited to the complete yoga package which includes Yoga asanas, breathing exercises (pranayama), Vedic wisdom, and introspective meditation. We strive diligently to overcome many fears, however the necessary security measures like insurances, helmets, health checkups fail to remove from us a disconcerting sense of fear and insecurity. The Vedic texts explain that all fear originates in an unbalanced material conception of life. Beyond the stage of material activity that preoccupies our mind lies a vast, unexplored realm of spiritual tranquility.

When: Saturday, March 21, 2015, 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Where: 1965 Latham Street, Mountain View, CA 94040
