SWAN BOAT FESTIVAL

If you want to experience something extraordinary, almost out of a fairytale, come to the Swan Boat Festival, which will mesmerize you every Saturday summer night. A magical torch-lit procession makes its way from the temple to Swan Lake amid kirtan (singing of Krishna’s names) and dancing. The deities of Sri Sri Radha Vrindaban Chandra are worshiped and then taken on a ride on the lake in a beautifully decorated swan boat, culminating in a small fireworks display.

If you want the rare opportunity to serve the Lord during these festivals, including preparing flower garlands, altar decorations, and food (bhoga) offerings, and doing other personal Deity services, please contact Vilasini Dasi a few days before every festival: vilasinidd@yahoo.com or Vanessa Marcelo on Facebook.
