Boat Festival 2008 Report

Hare Krsna everyone!!

With the boat festival, the major festivals of the 2008 have concluded.

The day was cloudy and just prior to the commencement of the festival, the clouds seemed to threaten us with a heavy downpour. They were pitch black, covering the entire sky except the moon. It seemed as if the Moon of Nadia Lord Gauracandra was witnessing this great festival. After all, the festival is His pastime.

Probably owing to this rain, the attendance was not much. About 200 people assembled. The kirtan was really first-class as was the prasadam. Extra prasadam was distributed to the needy outside the stadium complex.

We shall put up the pictures very soon.

Hare Krsna!
