Dear Friends
I trust you had a blessed Sri Krishna Janmashtami Festival. Thank you to those who rendered service to Sri Sri Radha Radhanath. My hope is that everyone who attended the festival feels closer to Krishna and will come forward to spend more time at the temple.
On Sunday 9 September is the Soweto Cultural Festival of Chariots. Since the inception of this festival, Sri Sri Radha Radhanath Temple has assisted with sponsorships, logistics, and organisation. I think this festival will bring great pleasure to Srila Prabhupada.
In 10 days we will be celebrating Sri Radhashtami. It will be a 3-day celebration and will include a pusha abhishek (flower We will be sharing festival details soon.
Hare Krishna!
Your servant
