Week Ahead 3-9 October 2019

Dear Friends 

Kartik 13 October – 12 November  

The Month of Damodar or Kartik is an invitation to dive deep into the ocean of devotional practice. When Srila Prabhupada took the devotees to Vrindavana during Kartik for the first time, he gave Nectar of Devotion (NOD) classes every day. In honour of Srila Prabhupada’s personal practice, we will be offering a NOD class every evening. There are numerous other devotions you can add to your spiritual practice: offer a lamp every day, read a Chapter of Bhagavad-gita (CHAD) every day, join the japa club every Sunday at 5:30pm. Note the evening schedule during the month of Kartik:  6:30pm Gaura-arati & Kirtan
7:00pm Damodarastaka followed by Offering of Lamps
7:30pm Nectar of Devotion Class
