The time between Lord Nityananda's and Lord Chaitanya's* appearance days is our annual japa marathon. Each 1st - 6th grade student has a daily japa meditation goal which they commit to during this period as an offering to Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. To date our students have chanted close to 700 rounds of japa together.
As a nice way to finish off this special offering, we are hosting a Holy Name Gathering at the school, where students and parents can chant japa together.
We would like to extend an invitation to you and your child to join us for this special event on Tuesday, March 26th (Gaura Purnima Day) from 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. in the Audarya Bhavan classroom. We will have a japa circle and set the space for a focused attention on the holy name of the Lord.
We look forward to seeing you!
*Lord Chaitanya is the 15th century incarnation of Lord Krishna who brought us the practice of chanting the Hare Krishna maha mantra:
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
