Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 On behalf of the management and all the devotees of Sri Sri Krishna Balaram Mandir, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to His Holiness Radhanatha Swami and the devotees of ISKCON Chowpatty. For almost 6 months, 6-8 devotees remained here in Vrindavan on rotating basis to give special training, classes, and association to the brahmacarys here in our ashram. Many devotees took advantage of their classes and association and were enlivened in Krishna Consciousness. Included among the devotees who came were four of the rotating temple presidents of ISKCON Chowpatty, Govinda, Shyamananda, Sanat Kumara, and Radha Gopinatha Prabhus. Gauranga das, who is a vice president and is very much appreciated for his Bhagavad Gita lectures on the Atma Program of Star Plus, also came and enlivened the devotees with his wonderful classes. During Srila Prabhupada's Disappearance festival, ISKCON Chowpatty sent over fifty devotees at their own expense to help with guest reception and serving Prasadam. This was highly appreciated by all the visiting devotees. This was a very open hearted and broadminded offering on behalf of His Holiness Radhanatha Swami to extend such a wonderful example of cooperation between temples. We had approached many people to help us to improve the conciousness in one of Srila Prabhupada's most important temples, but Maharaja was the only one who responded in such a generous manner. We hope that the spirit of cooperation and reciprocation between temples will continue in the future also. We remain eternally gratefull to His Holiness Radhanatha Swami and the devotees of ISKCON Chowpatty. Hare Krishna!
