Free parking will be available all day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do I get there?\n\n\n\nAddress Bhaktivedanta Manor Hilfield Lane Watford Sat-Nav: WD25 8HE \nNote: Entrance to temple is via Hilfield Lane only. There is no entrance to the temple through Letchmore Heath village. For driving\, use approximate driving postcode WD25 8HE and follow road signs. Do not use WD25 8EZ\, as this will lead you to a nearby village. \nFor Public Transport & Map\, please CLICK HERE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Bhagavad-Gita \nBhagavad Gita is organised into 18 chapters and contains 700 verses. The Gita can also be divided into three sections (6 chapters each): \nSection 1: Karma Yoga\nSection 2: Bhakti Yoga\nSection 3: Jnana Yoga \nThe word “yoga” is nowadays associated with stretching postures and exercises\, yet its true meaning is “the process of linking”. Specifically\, it refers to the process of linking our activities to the Supreme Person\, God. \nThe daily reading of Bhagavad Gita together with chanting the Hare Krishna mantra can bring about rapid spiritual advancement for any person. \nOut of numerous translations of the Gita\, “Bhagavad Gita As It Is” shines foremost as it brings to bear the purity and competence of its author and offers answers carefully preserved by a chain of teachers which can be traced back to Lord Sri Krishna. \n“Bhagavad Gita As It Is” consists of Sanskrit verses together with translations and purports by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Within the pages of the Gita\, the workings of karma\, reincarnation and yoga are to be found\, as instructed by Lord Krishna to Arjuna. \nWe invite you to explore this marvellous work. \n\n\nRefresh your soul in the company of senior vaishnavas. The entire 700 verses of the Gita will be recited\, and chapter summaries will be presented. A fire yajna will be conducted throughout the recitation. \nGita Jayanti offers the opportunity to celebrate the appearance of Bhagavad Gita and to distribute this gem to many others. You are invited to sponsor Bhagavad Gitas and distribute them to your friends\, family and colleagues. Alternatively the Temple on your behalf will place them in schools\, universities\, hospitals or prisons through its various programmes. \nThe Bhagavad Gita is a transcendental dialogue between Lord Sri Krishna and His devotee Arjuna. Spoken at the outset of a great battle\, it is an encyclopedia for humanity. \nIn contrast to the atheistic scientist’s purely physical (and hence incomplete) description of everything\, Bhagavad Gita makes a distinction between the spiritual self and the material body. \nThe mind\, intelligence and senses are discussed in terms of their strengths and limitations\, and guidelines are given for their intended use.

SUMMARY:Appearance of Sri Nrisimhadeva

SUMMARY:Pandava Nirjala Ekadasi
DESCRIPTION:Mon 14 Jun 2027 | Schedule\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\nMorning Programme\nMangal Arati\, Darshan & Guru Puja\, Class \nEvening Programme\n5pm – Kirtan & Glories of Ekadasi\n7pm –  Gaura / Sandhya Arati\n7:30pm – Kirtan\n9pm – Shayan Arati\n9:30pm – Finish \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Nirjala Ekadashi: More Than Just a Fast | Spiritual Power Explained\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Ekadasi \nEkadasi is one of the regular celebrations in the Vaishnava calendar. It is observed eleven days after the full moon and eleven days after the new moon of every month. Ekadasi is known as the day of Lord Hari and is said to be the mother of devotion. Keeping the fast on Ekadasi is one of the sixty-four items of devotional service listed in Srila Rupa Gosvami’s Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu. In fact\, it is one of the first ten. \nThe Nectar of Devotion\, Srila Prabhupada’s summary study of Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu\, states\, “In the Brahma-vaivarta Purana it is said that one who observes fasting on Ekadasi day is freed from all kinds of reactions to sinful activities and advances in pious life. The basic principle is not just to fast\, but to increase one’s faith and love for Govinda\, or Krsna. The real reason for observing fasting on Ekadasi is to minimize the demands of the body and to engage our time in the service of the Lord by chanting or performing similar service. The best thing to do on fasting days is to remember the pastimes of Govinda and to hear His holy name constantly.” \nPandava Nirjala Ekadasi \n“Pandava” refers to the Pandavas\, the sons of Emperor Pandu. One such son was Arjuna\, to whom Krishna spoke the Bhagavad-gita. Another son of Pandu was Bhima\, a most powerful warrior and a most voracious eater. He was not one who welcomed fasting\, and admitted to not being able to follow Ekadasi. However\, he was told that if he observed complete fasting on one particular Ekadasi day annually\, he would get all the spiritual benefits of having followed every Ekadasi fast of the year. He and his brothers thus all agreed to fast on that day (Pandava Nirjala Ekadasi). \n“Nirjala” means “no water.” Strict followers of Pandava Nirjala Ekadasi observe a total fast today\, even from water. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWill there be parking available?\n\n\n\nYes. Free parking will be available all day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do I get there?\n\n\n\nAddress Bhaktivedanta Manor Hilfield Lane Watford Sat-Nav: WD25 8HE \nNote: Entrance to temple is via Hilfield Lane only.

SUMMARY:Jhulan Yatra
DESCRIPTION:Thurs 12 – Tues 17 Aug 2027\n\nThe five-day celebration of Jhulan at Bhaktivedanta Manor\, when Sri Sri Radha Gokulananda are placed on a swing and swung by Their devotees\, is a joyous occasion. \nDuring this special time all of us can throng to the temple and please the transcendental eternal forms of Sri Sri Radha Gokulananda. These transcendental forms of the Lord\, called Archa-Vigraha\, are installed in the temple and are non-different from Them personally. These forms are expanded by the Lord by His internal potency to facilitate the devotional service of His innumerable devotees who are in the material world. \nSince our material senses cannot perceive the spiritual nature of Sri Sri Radha Gokulananda\, They accept such Archa Vigraha apparently made of a material element such as marble\, but actually there is no material contamination. The  Supreme Personality of Godhead and His eternal consort are waiting for us to fill our hearts with transcendental happiness by serving Their beautiful transcendental forms as They swing at Bhaktivedanta Manor during Jhulan-yatra. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Schedule\n\nMorning 7am \nEvening 4:45pm-6:15pm \nPlease bring your own flowers to offer to the deities \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Frequently asked questions\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWill there be parking available?\n\n\n\nYes.

SUMMARY:Appearance of Lord Balarama
DESCRIPTION:Tues 17 Aug 2027\nThe Supreme Personality of Godhead\, Krishna\, is the fountainhead of all incarnations. Lord Balarama is His second body. They are both one and the same identity. They differ only in form. In Lord Krishna’s pastimes\, He plays as Krishna’s older brother. Together Krishna and Balarama enact many pastimes as cowherd boys in the land of Vrindavan. \nLord Balarama exemplifies the service attitude to Krishna. His only mission is to please Krishna by rendering service to Him\, whether it is in the creation of the material worlds\, maintaining the spiritual world or as His personal paraphernalia.  \nLord Balarama is the eternal companion of Sri Krishna. He came as Laxman with Rama and later as Sri Nityananda Prabhu with Lord Caitanya. He is the original spiritual master\, and any one desiring to make spiritual progress must first get the mercy of Lord Balarama. \nBalaram Jayanti\, the appearance of Lord Balarama\, celebrates the activities and pastimes of Lord Krishna’s brother\, Lord Balarama. There will be kirtans\, dramas\, ceremonies\, and a feast.
