What We Believe

The program aims at gently guiding and encouraging each individual in the group to be in harmony with all areas of life, while fostering close and lasting spiritual relationships and family feeling with each other. We love to share the message of the Bhakti Yoga tradition (Gaudiya-Vaishnava sampradāya based on the Sanskrit texts Bhagavad-gītā and Srimad Bhagavatam and the Bhagavat Purana). These are the historic texts of the devotional bhakti yoga tradition, which teaches that the ultimate goal for all living beings is to reawaken their love for God, or Lord Krishna, the “all-attractive one”.

Bhajans and Kirtan
Bhajans and Kirtan
Kirtan is the call-and-response form of chanting – it is the congregational singing of spiritually uplifting songs, prayers, or the sacred names of the Supreme Being. It is accompanied with traditional Indian instruments such as the mrdanga (drum) and kartalas (hand cymbals). Kirtan is the most powerful means of meditation to invoke the inner beauty of one’s own identity in relation to the Supreme spirit.

The mind, which follows in the wake of the wandering senses, carries away a man’s discrimination just as a gale tosses a ship on the high seas. – Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2 Verse 67
