SUMMARY:Appearance of Lord Balarama
DESCRIPTION:Thurs 27 Aug 2026\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.
