January 2023 Video Diary

Lord Damodar Lamp Offerings
Kartik comes but once a year - and never disappoints. The visitors kept coming in droves, and the temple was awash with lamp offerings to Lord Damodar, Krishna in His form as a small boy.
For the festival of Diwali in the middle of this month, all ISKCON guest houses, ashrams, offices and other buildings were decorated with special lights to celebrate the return of Lord Ram to Ayodhya. This can be seen towards the end of the video
A special feature of this video is the Damodarastakam prayers sung in a beautiful arrangement of Asavari Raag.
