Gaura Purnima!

Warm welcome on Saturday the 3rd March to celebrate Gaura Purnima with us, the appearance of Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Gaura – the Golden Avatar (a.k.a. Nimai)

Sri Krishna Chaitanya is Krishna Himself – svayam bhagavan – coming "secretly" 500 years ago in the form of a devotee of Himself, to by His own example show the souls in the material world how to go to the Innermost Realm of the Absolute, 
the heart of God. 

We will sing devotional songs, there will be lecture, abisheka (Deity bathing), arati (Deity greeting), and lots of wonderful Prasadam – spiritualized vegetarian food.

17.00!

Natures Hidden Teachers - Personalities Of The Trees

Tulasi - Ocimum tenuiflorum/sanctum

Nimaihusets favorite tree personality Srimati Tulasi devi!

Of all the plant teachers and sacred trees in this series Vrinda Devi is the most important for those of us practising Gaudiya Vaishnavism. All of our nonsense and sinful activities can be removed by her association, or even touching her… thankfully for us a gracefully simple act to achieve!!
