The Holy Appearance of His Divine Grace Sri Srimad Bhakti Gaurava Narasingha Maharaja was celebrated on September 3rd by disciples and well-wishers alike.
The program began with the auspicious adhivasa-puja performed by Bhakti Vijnana Giri Maharaja and Nanda-kisora Dasa. Srila Narasingha Maharaja was presented with the new Vyasa Puja book which contained many philosophical articles written by our acaryas, news of the asrama and offerings and appreciations by disciples and followers.
Srila Visnu Maharaja was invited to speak first. Maharaja spoke on the many contributions of Srila Narasingha Maharaja and the various sevas that are going on due to his continous enthusiasm and inspiration.
Next, H.H. Bhakti Srirupa Madhava Maharaja gave his offering which was a song that he had written in Bengali extolling the transcendental virtues of Srila Narasingha Maharaja. Maharaja led all the devotees in singing this song and punctuated it by reading the meaning of each verse in English. Other devotees also read their offerings and Srila Narasingha Maharaja spoke in between each offering.
The program concluded with puspanjali and arati to Srila Narasingha Maharaja and a feast in honor of his appearance.
