Guest guest Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 During the auspicious installation ceremony of the Panca Tattva deities, the Mayapur Festival is expected to attract a record number of devotees from all over the world, providing a wonderful opportunity for devotees and well-wishers of ISKCON to render a unique and valuable service to those visiting the Holy Dham. As prasadam will be distributed to the over ten thousand visiting devotees and guests without any fee, fortunate souls may take advantage of the opportunity to sponsor prasadam during the festival. Srila Prabhupada explains in the purport to Srimad Bhagavatam 3.16.8: "If one can feed a brahmana or Vaisnava, it is better than performing hundreds of thousands of sacrifices." When such an act is performed in the Sri Dham Mayapur, where even taking a step is considered to be more beneficial than ten million horse sacrifices, one can well imagine the benefit derived. The rates for sponsorship are as follows: $1 (Rs. 45) sponsors one devotee's prasad for one day. $5,000 sponsors an entire day's prasad for all the devotees. Please feel free to contribute according to your means. The total amount required is $100,000 and every contribution will bring us closer to providing this service to the assembled devotees. Sponsorships are required urgently as the festival dates are quickly coming upon us. In Europe, donations may be submitted to the following ISKCON account: IT76F0350033920000000010800 (IBAN code) For deposits from other parts of the world BIC code BCABIT22121 must also be mentioned. US donors and those seeking further information may address inquires to: Radha.Sundari.RNS (AT) pamho (DOT) net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
