As you may have noted from the above, the Festival schedule has lightly

changed: the whole program last for 18 days, and the Parikrama is now taking

place in the middle of the Festival, rather that at its beginning.

 

Basically, the festival will be thus divided into three parts:

1) Seminars and classes - 3d to 7th March (5 days),

2) N. M. Parikrama - 8th to 14th March (7 days),

3) Programs and happenings - 15th to 19th March (5 days).

 

This changes are meant to facilitate GBCs and senior devotees to extend

their stay after the meetings and give seminars, classes and association to

the devotees attending the Festival, during it's first part.

 

The N. M. Parikrama will run as usual.

 

In the last part of the festival, classes and seminars will be also going on

as in the past, but the concentration will be focused more on programs.

HH Jayapataka Svami is organizing a full day to day schedule yet to be

published.

address or by phone. Hari bol.
