Where: Lytton Plaza on University Avenue (220 University Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94301) Even the very sound of the holy name of Lord Krishna or Rama can at once surcharge the atmosphere spiritually.(SB 2.4.15 Purport) | | SATURDAY, JUL 27 - SPECIAL JAPA CIRCLE @ 6:00am
 The Sri Caitanya-caritamrita (Adi-lila, 17.22) says, "In this age of Kali, the holy name of the Lord, in the form of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra, is the incarnation of Lord Krishna. Simply by chanting the holy name, one associates with the Supreme directly. Anyone who does this is certainly delivered." In other words, it is this mantra that provides the doorway which leads directly to the spiritual realm. Furthermore, the use of it means that we change the vibrational level of our own consciousness and the environment in which we exist. This can cause the manifestation of that spiritual vibration and atmosphere in this material world. 6.00am: Special Japa Circle with H.G Vaisesika Prabhu
H.G. Vaisesika Prabhu has started this "Japa Circle" initiative to demonstrate the power of chanting in the association of devotees and deepen our love and attachment to Krishna's Holy Name. | | SATURDAY, JUL 27 - LECTURE ON SRIMAD BHAGAVATAM 10.10.41
 Hearing Srimad Bhagavatam from pure devotees is the most important means of attaining the ultimate goal of life. Through the process of submissively hearing sound vibration and chanting transcendental sound one attains a fearless state, free from darkness, free from doubt, free from the bewilderment of the accepting and rejecting nature of the mind. 7.30am: Lecture on Srimad Bhagavatam 10.10.41 by H.G Mukunda Datta Prabhu

"As Arjuna set aside his bow and arrows, let us set aside any sense of confidence in our own abilities so that we may hear Krsna's words with full heart and attention.This kind of submissive hearing is the primary requirement for advancement in spiritual life. The devotee who hears Krsna's words with a submissive heart immediately feels an ingress of causeless knowledge and detachment." – H. G. Vaisesika Prabhu CHAD is a worldwide alliance of devotees who chant at least one chapter of Bhagavad-gita As It Is every day. Please recite Chapter 2 (verses 1 – 36) of Bhagavad Gita every day along with one purport from 27 Jun 2019 to 27 Jul 2019.
