With Sri Guruji’s grace and blessings, we had wonderful Janmashtami sathsang for 2 days, on Sep 3rd and Sep 4th.
As part of Janmashtami celebrations, we celebrated Radha Kalyanam Utsavam at Calgary Hindu Society on September 3rd. Radha kalyanam took place in a grand manner with our satgsang children and ladies singing Thodayamangalam, guru keertanai, ashtapathi and Madhura gitams. It was the first time people in Calgary heard maduragitams and are very delighted to have more and more of our sathsangs.
In Edmonton, we had Dasama skandam parayanam from Krishna jananam till Rukmini kalyanam on Sept 4th, at the residence of Srinivasanji. We started parayanam at 5.30 AM and completed at 2 PM. We celebrated Nandaothsavam and Annakoota utsavam at one of our sathsang family members’ house (Sethumadhavan and Subha) that afternoon starting around 4 PM. Children sang many madura gitams and danced around Kutti Krishna’s cradle. Children also enjoyed making Govardhan giridhari with various rice and food items.
We pray at the lotus feet of our belived Guru maharaj and Madhuri sakhi sametha Premika varadha Takurji to give us more and more sathsang and sri Guruji kainkaryam.
