Week Ahead 21 - 26 April

Dear Friends
Hare Krishna
His Grace Swarup Damodar Das explains: “The story of Hanuman is detailed in a book of the Ramayana called Sundara-khanda, or the ‘beautiful book.’ Each book of the Ramayana is titled such to describe the events in that book — Aranya-khanda describes the forest pastimes and Yuddha-khanda gives an account of the war in Lanka. Sundara-khanda describes that what is most beautiful, is the manner in which the devotee gives everything in the service of the Lord. Since time immemorial and amongst all devotees, it is acknowledged that a sterling example of the Supreme Lord’s pure servant is Hanuman. Hanumanji is a devotee who lives only for the pleasure of his master, Lord Ramachandra. Thus he is the benchmark and a hero for all aspiring devotees of Lord Krishna.”
On Thursday, 21 April we invite you to the Sri Hanuman Jayanti celebration at 7pm.
