SUMMARY:Gita Jayanti Yajna - Bhagavad-gita Recitation

Keshava Swami\n – Fire yajna (Havan)\n – Your sponsored family name displayed\n – Your copy of the Gita offered\n\n\n\nTo participate\, we invite you to sponsor Bhagavad-gita’s\, for the spiritual benefit of society \n\nSponsor Bhagavad Gita’s\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Schedule\n\nDoors: 8am\nRecitation: 8:30am\nBreaks every 6 chapters\nRecitation Ends / Lunch: 2pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Live Stream\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYouTube\n\nClick here to view the live stream \n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Connect on WhatsApp\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhatsapp\n\nClick here to chat to us on WhatsApp \n\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. \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\n Do I need a ticket to attend?\n\n\n\nNo ticket is required. We ask everyone to sponsor Bhagavad-gita’s to participate. \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:Bhakti Janani
DESCRIPTION:Utthana Ekadasi – Friday 4 November 2022\nAs part of the daily Krishna Pastimes for Kartik series between 6:30pm and 7pm\, on Ekadasi days\, a special talk will be given. \nLife is filled with unexpected challenges. These challenges come from all directions and affect our bodies\, minds and lives in so many ways. When challenges come they test our wit\, resilience\, adaptability and beliefs.

The name itself comes from Dipavali\, a Sanskrit word referring to the countless rows of lamps which His citizens had lit throughout the kingdom to welcome Him back home (dipa means “lamp\, light or candle\,” and avali means “rows”). During a different era\, this was also the day when Lord Krishna performed His childhood pastime of breaking pots of yogurt and letting His mother bind Him with rope. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Five Days of Diwali\n\n\n\n\nThe first day of Diwali is called Dhanvantari Trayodasi\, which is when Lord Dhanvantari appeared on this planet in order to give Ayurvedic medicine to mankind. On this day\, Hindus pray for protection from untimely death. \nThe second day of Diwali is called Naraka Chaturdasi\, and is the day upon which Lord Krishna destroyed the demon Narakasura and liberated the 16\,000 princesses which the demon had been holding captive. \nThe third day is the actual day of Diwali\, which is when Lord Rama returned to His kingdom after successfully rescuing Sita and defeating the demon Ravana. On this day\, Hindus pray for the blessings of wealth and prosperity\, and for the triumph of good over evil and light over darkness. \nOn the fourth day\, Hindus perform Govardhana Puja\, or worship of the sacred hill of Govardhana\, a tradition which Lord Krishna Himself started roughly five thousand years ago. \nThe fifth day of Diwali is called Bhratri Dooj\, which is a day dedicated to honouring the bond between brothers and sisters. Brothers visit their sisters to enquire about their welfare\, and sisters pray for their brothers’ safety\, success and wellbeing.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnnakuta / Govardhana-puja\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Preview from previous festivals

SUMMARY:Sadhu Sanga with Radhanath Swami
DESCRIPTION:Friday 16 September 2022\nRadhanath Swami is one of today’s most beloved and respected spiritual teachers. He spent his youth wandering through disparate countries and cultures yearning for an experience of truth; after finally meeting his spiritual teacher in India he has spent the last 50 years internalising that spiritual practice and sharing it with others. He is not only a guide\, but a community builder\, activist\, and a New York Times Best selling author. Rooted in his study of ancient India’s mystic devotional tradition\, Radhanath Swami’s message is as profound as it is simple: by cultivating a rich inner life of self-awareness and a genuine practice of service\, we can become instruments of compassion and agents of sustainable change in the world. \nJoin us for an evening of katha and kirtan in the Sri Krishna Haveli. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLive Broadcast \nThis program will be broadcast live\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/bhaktivedantamanor/live/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Krishnatemple/live \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Listen\n\n\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\nDo I need a ticket to attend?\n\n\n\nNo ticket is required.

SUMMARY:Snana Yatra
DESCRIPTION:Sunday 28 August 2022\n\nBathing ceremony for Lord Jagannatha\, Baladeva\, and Subhadra in the Sri Krishna Haveli at Bhaktivedanta Manor. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Schedule\n\n9:15 am – Arrival and Welcome of Jagannatha\, Baladeva & Subhadra \n10:15 am – Abhishek \n1:00 pm – Sringar & Raj Bhoga \n2:oo pm – Hathi Vesha Darshan (Elephant Outfit) & Kirtan \n4:00 pm – Vaikalika Bhoga \n4:20 pm – Arati \n4:40 pm – Jagannatha\, Baladeva & Subhadra depart for London \nGuidelines for bathing during Snana-yatra\nPlease approach in a clean condition and follow the instructions of the pujaris. Do ask if you are unsure about anything. \nPujaris are unable to carry your children so kindly carry very small ones (1 child per adult)\, unless they can walk. If a child is distressed\, please wait until they have calmed down before approaching to bathe. \nYoung children (those under 7 years) will not be given a conch of their own and will need to share with an adult. They can hold the adult’s arm or body. \nDo not touch the Deities. \nPlease only bathe the Deities once\, even if you wish to bathe on behalf of someone else. Before or on receiving the conch\, silently declare to the Lord the names of the one or two people you are bathing for (including yourself). \nDo not carry bags while bathing. You will be asked to put them down and collect them again once you have finished bathing. A rucksack is OK. \nBathe from the top only. That means the head of the Deities only – not the feet or arms. \nDo not take selfies while bathing. Give the camera or phone to someone else who is not on the stage. \nPlease offer your obeisances off the stage. \nDevotees are always eager to serve. Please do so at the Snana-yatra festival by bathing the Deities. Kindly do not approach to wave a fan or hold the Deity\, even if you are brahman initiated. You will be refused\, and we do not wish to offend any persons. \nSri Sri Jagannatha Baladeva Subhadra ki jaya! \n  \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:Friday 12 August 2022\n  \nThe Supreme Personality of Godhead\, Krishna\, is the fountainhead of all incarnations. Lord Balarama is His second body.

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.

SUMMARY:Jhulan Yatra Swing Festival
DESCRIPTION:Monday 8 August – Friday 12 August 2022\n\nThe five-day festival 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\nEarly Morning – Monday 8th – Friday 12th \n7:00 am – 7:30am \nEvening – \nWednesday 10th –  9:00-9:30pm \nFriday 12th – 7:00-7:30pm
