Maha Yajna for Gita Jayanti

8,229 views

An annual highlight in Bhaktivedanta Manor’s calendar, Gita Jayanti is a celebration of Lord Krishna’s timeless dialogue with Arjuna. In the run up to the event over 1800 Bhagavad Gitas were sponsored by individuals and businesses for distribution.

Several hundred people braved icy and dangerous driving conditions to participate in this year’s celebration at Bhaktivedanta Manor. The recitation was led by Kripamoya das with chapter summaries provided by guest speaker Gauranga das.

Over a period of 6 hours, with two short breaks, the entire Bhagavad Gita was recited. Gauranga das presented a topic based analysis of the chapters, with headings such as co-operation, commitment and selflessness.
