He wanted this to be a magnificent temple, just like his temple at Govardhan , which will become the focal point of preaching his message of purebhakti. Now, by his divine mercy, his desire is becoming a reality. It will be a historic festival in the history of Srila Gurudeva\u2019s North American sanga.<\/p>\n<p>Several sannyasis and senior devotees from all over the world have confirmed attendance at the festival. So, there will be nectarean hari-katha, remembering the glorious pastimes of Srila Gurudeva, melodious kirtans, beautifully choreographed cultural programs and of course delicious, sumptuous prasadam. So, please make sure not to miss. Come with your family and friends and immerse yourself in four days of pure spiritual bliss.<\/p>\n<p>Please read through this announcement for festival details.
