"My dear King, in the place where pure devotees live and purely consciously engaged with great eagerness in hearing and chanting the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, in that place if one gets a chance to hear their constant flow of nectar, which is exactly like the waves of a river, one will forget the necessities of life-namely hunger and thirst-and become immune to all kinds of fear, lamentation and illusion." SB 4.29.39-40
Many devotees on their way to the Hari Katha Festival with Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Maharaja in Northern Italy from June 21st through 27th (www.purebhakti.com/preachers/tours/2004/bvnm_eu.shtml) can join us here in Zurich, then proceed to Austria (Innsbruck) and then on to Italy on Sunday, June 20th.
Thank you for considering my humble invitation. If you need any other assistance then please contact me at radhe@pamho.net. I am happy to help you.
Your servant, Krishna Chandra dasa.
