Gaura Purnima celebration this Friday, March 9th 2012 at ISKCON Scarborough

We would like to invite you to join us for the Gaura Purnima celebration this Friday, March 9th 2012 at ISKCON Scarborough

Gaura Purnima means “golden full moon,” signifying that:
1) Lord Chaitanya was “born” during a full moon, and
2) The Lord blesses everyone with the soothing, moonlike rays of His sublime teachings.

Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is Krishna Himself, appearing as His own devotee, to teach us that we can gain full enlightenment simply by chanting the holy names of the Lord:

Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare

The schedule is as follows:

6.15PM to 6.30PM - Tulasi Arti
6.30PM to 7PM- Special Abhisheka (bathing ceremony of Sri Sri Gaura Nitai)
7PM to 8PM- Class on Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu
8PM to 8.30PM: Arati
8.30PM to 8.45PM - 1 round chanting of Hare Krishna Maha mantra
