TUESDAY, MAY 25 - IN-PERSON NARASIMHA CHATURDASI DARSHAN & EVENING CELEBRATION WITH H.G. VAISESIKA PRABHU @ ISV! Narasimha Chaturdasi, is the appearance day or birthday of Lord Narasimha, the half-Lion and half-man incarnation of Lord Vishnu. The Narasimha Chaturdasi festival is of great significance to all Vaishnavas and is observed by fasting till dusk. Lord Narasimha Deva removes the obstacles in the path of devotional service. Devotees who pray to Him are always protected from all kinds of calamities. On Tuesday, May 25, ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV) will be celebrating Nrsimha Chaturdashi, the most auspicious appearance day festival of Lord Nrsimhadeva. On this occasion, all the devotees are cordially invited to visit ISV and take in person darshan of Their Lordship during the following darshan schedule by signing up using SIGNUP LINK (one per family).
