Information about the program…
… all of this in a festive, spiritual atmosphere
Visit the sacred sites of Krishna Valley during Christmas and the New Year! You can join two 1.5-hour parikramas each day, where we not only visit the holy places but also experience the spiritual moments, bhajans, and meditation together. The parikramas are conducted in English, led enthusiastically and colorfully by Ānanda Candrikā mātājī.
You can experience inner discovery in a festive, communal atmosphere.
During the program, we explore the beauty of the sacred sites and collectively experience the joy of bhajans and the līlās associated with these holy places. Through the walks and spiritual experiences, the pressures of everyday life quiet down, and you too can feel the peace flowing from the heart.
You can experience all of this in the picturesque surroundings of Krishna Valley, away from the noise of the city and the stress of everyday life. On top of that, we will welcome you with delicious vegetarian and vegan prasādam, prepared from locally sourced, organic ingredients.
Be present, unleash the spiritual self within you, and experience the special power of the festive atmosphere in the company of a spiritual community!
