Krsna Comes To Sedona Arizona
BY GAURIDASA PANDITA DASA
 USA, Jan 17 (VNN) — Dear Prabhus, Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to jagat guru Srila Prabhupada!!!
I am happy to announce to you all that Krsna has come to Sedona Arizona. As you may know Sedona is a spiritual seekers paridise with some of Krsna's most beautiful creations and powerful healing energies on the planet. People come from all over the world to hike out and experience the vortex electro-magnetic and comes from the ground in special places. It makes the Juniper trees grow in a spiral way kind of like the trees in Vrindavan that were touched by the lotus hands of Srimati Radharani and or Lord Sri Krsna.
There are male and female vortexes that relax or inspire you. I personally have been inspired to write some new songs about Krsna here. In fact, my wife and I have been so inspired by hiking to all of the 5 main vortexes that we decided to move here and Krsna made a very nice arrangement for us. After looking so long in San Luis Obispo and a few other places and not finding anything tangible, we now understand that Krsna wanted us here to help take people to a higher level. He arranged a nice location for us at the base of the biggest mountain in Sedona. In just a few hours everything manifested.
We will start regular Harinams and Bhakti yoga programs in our center, in other yoga centers and out in the amazing nature. There are so many people living here and coming here for spiritual advancement and now we will be offering them the highest Truth, Krsna Consciousness. As Srila Prabhupada told me and the Radha Damodar Bhakta's at our first meeting on July 8th 1974, "Now that you are fortunate; make others fortunate. Preach this message of Lord Chaitanya's all over the world!" We will be studying and teaching the transcendental message of Sri Sri Guru and Gouranga from Srila Prabhupada's original books to all of the fortunate souls we can.
I am surprised that there has not been a Krsna temple or preaching center here to date. It is one of the ripest places for Krsna Consciousness that I have found in my many years of travels, outside of India.
Sedona is perfect for a yoga retreat also and that is what we have on a small scale now. Krsna willing it will expand. I would advise any serious devotees who can to visit and see for your selves how nice life can be. I and my good wife Nandapriya and child Sukadev Sarasvati Pandit, are very happy and enlivened to be here. We take japa walks in different beautiful trails every day and are finding it more and more amazing. Just out the temple room window is a million (Billion!)dollar view of a mountain that looks like Goverdhan hill and everywhere it looks like Vrindavan. So we are remembering Krsna naturally and it is very nice. We have therefore named our new center, New Goverdhan Dham. If you would like to come and experience Krsna's energy and Krsna of course, let us know and we will be the best hosts we can be; as Srila Prabhupada wants.
We have a Kesava Krsna Deity and little Sri Sri Radha Damodar Deities with an ecstatic dancing Laxmi Nasringadev and Pralada Maharaja; Kaliya Krsna and Gopinath. We have all of Srila Prabhupada's original books and good Prasadam, the winning combination!
Hoping this meets you all in best of health and happiness, KC!
Your servant,
Gauridasa Pandita Dasa
