Apr 28, Jaipur, India (CNN) — ISKCON Bangalore is the place for all the enthusiastic Krishna devotees. Here, everyone attends the Mangala Aratik, performs Tulasi puja, sings Narasimha Aratik, chants 16 rounds of Hare Krishna maha-mantra will all the devotees in the main temple hall.
Govindam Adipurusham stuns the visitors during the Sringara aratik. Then, jumping devotees sing Sri Krishna Chaitanya prabhu doya karo more and Yashomati Nandana Braja-jana ranjana. After this the festive deity of Srila Prabhupada is taken 3-4 times around the main temple hall deities, and with Hare Krishna maha-mantra Sankirtana, Srila Prabhupada visits the Sri Prahlada Narasimha and Sri Sri Srinivasa Govinda Deities.
Then, Srila Prabhupada Deities are brought back to main temple hall, where the most wonderful thing of the day takes place – GURU PUJA. There are hundreds of devotees lined up to offer flowers to Srila Prabhupada. Devotees actually realize how Srila Prabhupada opens our darkened eyes and fills up our heart with transcendental knowledge. Srila Prabhupada is the external manifestation of Supersoul, so he can easily give us transcendental knowledge if we are sincerely looking for it, even during his physical absence from this planet.
When devotees are singing ‘ha ha Prabhu karo doya, deho more pada chaya, ebe jashak tribhuvana’ – they actually realize how coming under Srila Prabhupada’s shade (or umbrella) brings them unlimited security and happiness. Please experience the bliss yourself by visiting ISKCON Bangalore’s Hare Krishna Hill.
I request all the devotees from around the world to combine together as the Hare Krishna Party and come under Srila Prabhupada’s shade (or umbrella). Come join us for the Hare Krishna Explosion – the Hare Krishna Bang from Bangalore.
Your servant,
Bhakta Aniruddha
