During the day we performed sa\u1e45k\u012brtana with the local devotees and in the evening we had Hari-n\u0101ma at the hall. When all the devotees arrived we showed a documentary about \u2018The All India Padayatra\u2019. It explains how we travel to different places in India preaching and distributing the Holy Names. Everyone was very inspired and happy to hear the glories of Sri Sri Nitai Gaurasundar. Afterwards, the children performed a drama about Sakshi Gopal. This was followed by other cultural programs and abhishek of the deities, which we arranged. Their Lordships were offered 56 bhoga preparations that day.<\/p>\n
More celebrations<\/strong><\/p>\n Later that evening Rupa Raghunatha Maharaj who had joined the p\u0101da-y\u0101tr\u0101 on the auspicious day of Balaram Jayanti, gave a talk on the Janma (birth) lila of Lord Krishna. The lecture was translated to Malayalam for the locals. His lectures are very inspiring and they encourage us to continue on with this p\u0101da-y\u0101tr\u0101. We are very happy that he joined us again; his presence gives us spiritual strength so we can better serve Guru and Gauranga. A few hours before midnight we went on sa\u1e45k\u012brtana with the assembled devotees, who danced with ecstasy! Afterwards, we returned to the hall at midnight for maha-arati of Sri Sri Nitai Gaurasundar, followed by pras\u0101dam.<\/p>\n We wish to thank Caitanya Rasamrita Dasa, the disciple of Jayapataka Maharaj who helped us a lot during our almost one month long stay in the Kannur district. He not only spread the news all over that the \u2018All India Padayatra\u2019 was coming to the towns and villages of Kannur but he also made sure to tell everyone to make arrangements for us. We had a good time and distributed a lot of books \u2013all by mercy of Sri Sri Nitai Gaurasundar.<\/p>\n
