By the mercy of Srila Prabhupada and under the guidance of HG Sundar Gopal prabhu ISKM Dallas conducted a blissful Pallaki Utsav celebrations last Sunday on account of Gaura Purnima. Every person who came was only applauding & glorifying the activities. They were thanking again and again for conducting the programs, as each of them said personally that -“this kind of exposure to their children and to them (parents) is rare to find it in today’s world, not even in India. They are surprised how it’s all happening here in Dallas suburbs.”
After Pallaki, there was a class on the significance of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s appearance and everyone chanted one round including kids This was followed by a Arati and a grand Feast Prasadam.
Due to the association of the devotees, parents are more connected to the temple than before because of these festivities. They are more than enthusiastic to attend the programs together with their children. The Sunday Love Feast programs have been running from November but the numbers have grown exponentially since the launch of the Gurukul.
We pray for the mercy and blessings of all the Vaishnavas and Vaishnavis on ISKM Dallas devotees to carry on this incredible preaching work and also to bless them to build a temple in Dallas.
SB 10.3.34-35 Purport: The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, therefore, is teaching people not to adopt artificial means of happiness, but to take the real path of happiness as prescribed in the śāstra — the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra — and become perfect in every aspect of material existence.
