Dear Friends
15 Days to the 40th Anniversary!
Srila Prabhupada's 50th Anniversary Bus Tour
With His Grace Kshudi Das, His Grace Medhavi Das, and His Grace Srutakirti Das
Saturday • 4 October • 9am
“My lord, devotees like your good self are verily holy places personified. Because you carry the Personality of Godhead within your heart, you turn all places into places of pilgrimage.” SB 1.13.10 When Srila Prabhupada visited Durban 50 years ago, he went on morning walks, gave talks, and stayed at a rented house. Join us on a memorial tour of these holy places. We have planned a wonderful tour in comfort and association. We will chant together, reminisce together, and honour prasad together. There will also be a historic quiz with prizes!
