Gaura-purnima (Sunday March 24th this year) is the most auspicious appearance day of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu - the Golden Avatar of Lord Krishna. The Lord appeared in His previous incarnations as Lord Krishna, Lord Rama, and Lord Nrsimhadeva but Lord Chaitanya is extra special for 'Gaudia Vaisnavas' (aka the Hare Krishna Movement) as He transformed the hearts of everyone He met through singing of the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra and re-establishing the Bhakti-yoga tradition.
His legacy is carried on to this day all over the world, a special gift by our Founder Srila Prabhupada who brought this ancient tradition from India to the whole world.
This Friday, in preparation for the actual day on Sunday, we will be having a drama, illustrating the pastimes of His appearance and special ceremony for Lord Caitanya where lamp, incense, flowers are offered as we all sing and we will have ecstatic Kirtan, dancing and a special veggie/vegan feast at the end.
Please join us and we look forward to seeing you there!
