Padayatra Slovenia is a caravan of song and dance, a festival of Vedic and Vaishnava culture. \u00a0Its motto: from pure consciousness to a pure heart and a clean environment and fulfilling relationships. The 2018 slovenian Padayatra was thus a renewed opportunity to sincerly serve the devotees and Krishna. This year we toured\u00a0 the central part of the country and Ljubljana, the capital, from July 3rd to 20th. We also went to Bled and Portoroz for one day.<\/p>\n
For the third \u00a0year in a row, devotees’ accommodations were arranged at the Ljubljana Sri Panca Tatva temple, at \u017dibertova 27. We walked in the afternoon, from 4 pm to 8 pm, starting from the temple.<\/p>\n
This year’s summer\u00a0 marked our 17th padayatra – a wonderful pilgrimage with beautiful Sri Sri Nitai, Gaura-Nataraj, Srila Prabhupada, Tulasi devi and the Lord’s devotees. The walk was accompanied by loud singing of Lord Krishna’s names and stunning dancing.<\/p>\n
Padayatra is the mission of Caitanya Mahaprabhu and the path of self-realisation for this age, for all people and all living beings. It is is also a wonderful opportunity for devotees to associate among themselves everyday through spiritual programs and entertainment. All kinds of devotees get the chance to experience the constant chanting of the holy names, distribution of prasadam and of Srila Prabhupada’s books to people in general.<\/p>\n
Slovenian devotees and devotees from other countries had been warmly invited to join this unselfish form of preaching of love of God. The response was amazing, especially because many young devotees from 10 to 18 years old participated in the \u00a0walk. \u00a0Lalita Govinda prabhu, the padayatra organizer, is very happy to see this program is so well accepted among youngsters. They could associate among themselves in a spiritual atmosphere and experience first hand the mission of Caitanya Mahaprabhu. They also found it interesting because they could meet their peers from Spain.<\/p>\n
This year’s special guests were Bir Krishna Goswami, Prahladananda Swami, Devadharma Prabhu and \u00a0Bhagavat-purana Prabhu.<\/p>\n
The devotee who participate on padayatra remain friends forever, every devotee is\u00a0 convinced of that.<\/p>\n
