After a visual feast..we will go over to the Krishna Temple and have a savory vegetarian and auditory feast. They take donations- probably $5 (bring some plastic dishes since throwing away food there is BAD!!!). The dinner begins at 5 p.m. Here is some info from their website- It is a window into the dynamic and exciting life of the Hare Krishna temple.   Please come to the next Sunday Feast, held every Sunday!   Here are the elements in order that make up the Sunday Feast: •Bhajans (5pm): these are songs 
(hymns of praise or hymns made 
up of the names of God) sung while 
seated on the floor with harmonium 
(pump organ), Mrdungam (temple 
drum), and of course, singing. •Lecture (5:50pm): The lecture is a 
chance to hear directly from a 
senior member of the tradition 
about the philosophy and practice 
of the ancient tradition embodied 
by the “Hare Krishnas."  It will 
include readings from the religious 
classics of India like the Bhagavad 
Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam.  
There is also an open question and 
answer period at the end that you 
are encouraged to take part in! •Arati and Kirtan (6:45pm):  Arati is the 
offering of such diverse elements as Lamps 
of burning ghee, fragrant incense, opulent 
flowers, pure water and peacock feather 
fans and yak-tail whisk fans.  Included is the 
pleasing and energetic singing (Kirtan) of 
hymns of praise to God and His beloved 
servants.  It is accompanied by drums, 
bells,  gongs, singing and dancing. •Prasadam (7:20pm): this is the 
Feast part of Sunday Feast!  The 
Prasadam is absolutely fresh, 
utterly delicious vegetarian food, 
cooked by expert kitchen staff and 
offered to God for His pleasure.  
What remains is His mercy or, in 
Sanskrit, His Prasadam.  Delicious 
and like nothing you've ever had 
before. Please bring your appetite! WE HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE!
