Festivals
Govardhana Puja On Monday 4th November we celebrated the Govardhana Puja festival with great pomp. The Temple was decorated beautifully with pictures of Krishna holding Govardhana hill, and the gopas and cows, all around the Temple room.
Hill began at 12.30pm and continued until 1pm amidst kirtana by Krsna lila dasa. After this, a sumptuous feast was served to all the guests in two sittings. In the evening Abhisheka was performed of Govardhana Silas, and then the Radha Krishna drama group performed drama depicting the pastime of Krishna lifting Govardhana hill, followed by Damodarashtakam prayers.
Morning class was given by HG Radha Raman dasa and evening class was given by Syamananda dasa on the lessons to learn from Govardhan lila. At noon, a splendid Darshan of Govardhana Hill in the centre of the Temple room was arranged by the pujaris with loads of colourful offerings of sweets and savouries. Circumambulation of Govardhana
