A Special Event: Kadamba Kanana Swami’s Visit

On Friday March 5, we had the honour of hosting Kadamba Kanana Swami, a leading teacher in the Hare Krishna movement. He took time out of his busy schedule to have a special Friday night Satsang, kirtan and dancing saptah chant.

After an effusive welcome, the ashramites had a feast prepared for Kadamaba Kavana Swami and his party. We shared a good meal and good company. Swamiji spoke about bhakti yoga and Kadamba Kanana Swami gave a lighthearted and insightful talk about the nature of love. And then it was time to dance: we chanted the divine name as we danced in an ever-speeding circle around the meditation hall. Kadamba Kanana and Swamiji lead the chanting from the sidelines, exhorting us to dance faster and chant louder. It was an evening of ecstasy.
