MOSCOW DISCOURSES 2014

Managing Trustee Sri. A.V. Srinivasan, fondly addressed as Swamiji by his devotees is currently on a 10 day visit to Moscow. Yielding to loving pressure from his Moscow devotees, Swamiji took time off from his busy schedule to pay a brief visit to Moscow. Swamiji’s day begins well before dawn and ends late at night while taking them through the mysteries of meditation, the joys of Japa, the dynamics of Yoga, the intricacies of acupressure therapy and healing marma massage and finally guiding them on their inner journey through inspiring spiritual discourses.

CHRISTMAS 2014

Christmas was celebrated with joy and enthusiasm on top of the newly raised Kubera Hill along with our overseas devotees from Lithuania and Russia. What was special about Christmas this year was that this hill was built by the efforts of the Lithuanian devotees who put their hearts and souls into the project; enthusiastically going about the job with seeming ease helped by their bhajan singing and more importantly the presence and participation of Swamiji in the activity; the youngest member was a 12 year old working alongside a 73 year old grand mother!

Christmas was celebrated on the eve of Christmas with a gaily decorated christmas tree atop the little hill; there was cake cutting, distribution of gifts, singing of carols in Russian and Lithuanian languages and a discourse by Swamiji.
