Hare Krsna,
7.15
It was a fantastic experience doing the Mangala Arati, Narasimha Arati and Tulasi Arati along with the kids. Harinii led the kirtan for Mangala Arati and Tulasi Arati. Hasini led the Narasimha Arati. We have the presence of Kalapana Mataji. I am planning to call all the kids parents for these Arati at 9.20 am every Sunday. It was such lovely experience. I am sure you would love it too.
Being GIta Jayanthi month, I requested all the kids to sell the Bhagavad Gita to whomever they meet - better to fellow kids/ their parents / they can gift the Gita to others also. This month alone, Softbound English / Tamil Bhagavad Gita costs Rs 50. I look forward parent's support to the kids for accomplishing this deed.
We had chanting of 108 times of Hare Krsna Maha Mantra, followed by Q&A on Sloka:
7.15
na māṁ duṣkṛtino mūḍhāḥ
prapadyante narādhamāḥ
māyayāpahṛta-jñānā
āsuraṁ bhāvam āśritāḥ
prapadyante narādhamāḥ
māyayāpahṛta-jñānā
āsuraṁ bhāvam āśritāḥ
Those miscreants who are grossly foolish, who are lowest among mankind, whose knowledge is stolen by illusion, and who partake of the atheistic nature of demons do not surrender unto Me.
Thank you
