CALENDAR, Jul 14 (VNN) — Dear Maharajas, Prabhus and Didis, Please accept our dandavat pranam. Sri Sri Guru-Gauranga Jayatah!

The Nectar of Bhakti Tour of Sripad Bhaktivedanta Padmanabha Maharaja will be flowing here in the UK! From the 16th July he will be visiting many places throughout England and Wales and our hope is that this will enable you to take advantage of his purifying association. Maharaja has been travelling around the world and will be coming to England directly from a tour of Russia where he was received with great enthusiasm and affection, as always. Especially we wish to call your attention to the first weekend of his visit, the 16th, 17th, & 18th in Birmingham, when we will be celebrating the glories of Pujyapada Nitya Lila Om Visnupada 108 Srila! Bhakti Raksaka Sridhara Goswami Maharaja, whose disappearance is on the 17th July.

Sripad BV Padmanabha Maharaja has had much intimate association with Srila B R Sridhara Maharaja and all are encouraged to attend our three-day festival in his honour and hear the glories of hari-katha and the holy name as presented by one of the greatest acaryas in the Rupanuga Guru-Varga. Please take a few moments to look over the schedule detailed below and mark your calendar for when you will get your bhakti nectar. Maharaja is here for 15 days of pure nectar! Please take full advantage of this golden opportunity. Invite everyone you know.

Please let the hosts, of the programmes you will be attending, know when you will be coming. This allows us to prepare in advance for you.

Should you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

See you there!
