Spiritual gatherings
A friendly sacred space
Association with like-minded people is important for those willing to progress on the spiritual path. In order to facilitate this, there are various community groups and gatherings run by the Bhaktivedanta Manor community. There could be something right up your street. Have a look at the options available below and get in touch directly.
Sanga Groups
The word “sanga” denotes a gathering of like-minded people. In these monthly groups, individuals come together for an evening of meditation, spiritual discussion, vegetarian food and spiritual fun! It’s usually held at the house of a host, and the relaxed environment allows members to gradually enter into the Krishna conscious philosophy at their own pace. Different speakers enlighten the audience on various topics, drawing out teachings from the scriptures which we can apply in our daily lives.

UK groups
Feel like you’re interested in Krishna Consciousness, but you’re the only one in your town? It may feel like that sometimes, especially when you’re based in a town that is further away from the Manor or other major temples in the UK. However, it is very likely that there are practitioners of bhakti yoga in your town or nearby, and maybe even a regular group meeting taking place. Getting in touch and finding out might be a (spiritual) life saver!
