    14. april 2024, Italien ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    Today was a special day for our angel,Heeranya, and we managed to sing happy birthday to her. She was so thankful for the presents we left for her before leaving on our trip......We embarked on going to the Iskcon temple Villa Vrindavana, which is about 15 km from Florance. You have to take a tram for two stations and board a bus for 9 stations. We had to walk 2.5 km uphill, which was challenging for but received a warm welcome at the Villa....After our abeyance at the altar, we joined the devotes for a lunch feast . Stayed for the evening program where the devoties sing and chant the hare krishna mantra near the cows, and they then walk to the stable. They,the cows, follow a protocol. First, the bull
    named Krishna, goes toward to stable, followed my Dharma, and the rest of the crew with a calf . They enjoy the chanting and pampering from the visiting guest .We joined in the chanting and dancing outside the stable and followed the devotes to the temple, chanting all the way....The evening satsang was fantasic then came thd evening feast!!! One kind devotee gave us a lift back to Florence station, and in a few minutes, we were back into our cozy room. What a lovely day . The maha mantra chanted is : 16 celebyes ..8 each as a meter ....Hare krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare.Hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare. Enjoy chanting! 😉
