Hare Krsna To  one and all
Obeisances, repects, and love to all
All glories to Srila Prabhupada

THIS JANMASTAMI/VYSAS PUJA FESTIVAL WAS THE BEST ONE YET.
If you missed it, then you really missed something special. And these same words were spoken by everyone present.  All the vaisnavas, both local and visiting said there was something special about this particular event. One said it was like a seed has been planted...another said, they had never seen anything like this, another said it was ecstatic, etc etc.
For me the best part is always the kirtans, and now lets take a look and see what unfolds in the picture department.
This next set of photos was taken by my wife Daria, while we were totally immersed in the Transcendental sounds of the Holy Names while Sukadev prabhu was pumping away on the harmonium.

 

Below we have some shots of the altar and offerings, approximately 120 differents types of foodstuffs offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead Sri Krsna, including Gulab Jamuns (distributed the next day)
(note the watermelon peacock with grape, blueberry, cantaloupes, and raspberries, on skewer sticks.)

 

Hare Krsna to one and all. Obeisances, respects, and love to all.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada
 
     Below are more pictures of our Janmastami/vysas puja festival.
We had one section of the program where I opened some presents we made or bought for the Lords pleasure, as well as some given by others.

     Coincidentally a large box arrived on Janmastami day from our old friend Jitarati, which included two items, a positive and a negative impression of Prabhupada's Lotus Feet. Two separate lotus feet plates made of some kind of stone material or plaster, but very solid. They are beautiful and thank you Jitarati for sending them. The devotees loved them.

     We also opened some presents which included new jewellry made by myself, and some also from Hasti Gopal from Toronto, Canada. My wife Daria and I also bought a ruby slippers pink flowering Dogwood Tree which will be planted in the front yard so that when it blooms in the spring, our Deities will be able so see the flowers thru the large 8 foot picture window in the spring.

     The Deities also received tulip bulbs, lots of incense, milk jugs, a block of sandlewood and many other things.  Thank you all for your kind donations. Oh , and my friend Hasti Gopal also gave me an "official" Toronto transit bus shirt and tie to wear-just in case I ever want to drive one of those buses.

Here Kanhaiya prabhu, who was given ritvik initiation last year  by Srila Prabhupada,is performing acama before the ceremony begins. He received brahmana initiation. To his left side was a new bhakta who recveived Hari nama initiation and is now known as Nityananda Rama.
