Yep, mayavad--who aren't liberated, but nonetheless want to give up?

That's the "holy" festival... observed with great enthusiasm... especially

famous at Varsana (Barsana) on "Falgun Purnima" (the full moon day in the

month of Falgun) that is also observed by us as "Gaur Purnima"... since

we're all in Mayapur on that day (many of us...) we've probably missed the

fun! :-)
