Upcoming- Acharyadeva's 40th Sannyasa Anniversary Celebration

vp2008a

Dear devotees,
Please accept our humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada & Srila Acharyadeva!

Almost 40 years ago on Nrismhadeva Caturdasi 1972, at the age of 23, Srila Hridayananda das Goswami Acharyadeva bowed down at the lotus feet of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, and recited vows to live the rest of his life as a renunciate, a sannyasi, and to dedicate his life’s work towards the service Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai, the development of ISKCON, and the expansion of the Hare Krishna Movement. Over the course of these 40 years, Acharyadeva has distinguished himself as a courageous leader, Sanskrit scholar, writer, commentator, and guru. Thus, in honor of Acharyadeva’s remarkable achievements, it is our great privilege to announce Acharyadeva’s upcoming 40th Anniversary Sannyasa Celebration & Retreat Weekend.

Please mark your calendars for the dates of May 4-6, 2012 (Nrsimhadeva Caturdasi weekend) to receive intimate association with Acharyadeva in a peaceful and relaxing setting in the foothills of Southern California. The weekend promises daily darshans with Acharyadeva, precious association with godfamily, enriching morning and evening kirtans, intellectually stimulating classes, first-class prasadam, comfortable accommodations, and more.

Reflections after visiting Srila Acharyadeva

The following letter was written by Sri Govardhan das after a recent visit with Acharyadeva.

I would like to talk a little bit about my visit, during the last days of December and the beginning of January, with my spiritual master, His Holiness Hridayananda Das Goswami Acharyadeva (trying not to repeat what HH Dhanvantari Swami has so nicely described in his letter written several months ago).

As a brief personal introduction, my name is Sri Govardhana das. I was formally initiated by Srila Acharyadeva approximately one year ago. Although when I was born, he gave me the name Giri Govardhana. I am 20-years-old, and I am studying my BMA in Engineering. Both of my parents are disciples of Srila Acharyadeva. In addition to their individual professions, they are the owners and administrators of a Radha Govinda restaurant and a preaching center in Leon, Guanajuato.
