From 16th to 18th of September 2022
At New Gokula/Australia
YOU ARE MOST WELCOME TO JOIN US TO:
* Deepen your relationship with the Holy Name.
* Spend these days in seclusion in beautiful nature - away from all usual distractions.
* Hear about the glories of the Holy Name in the association of like-minded devotees and practically apply what you have heard in kirtan and japa.
* Experience a different reality - associate with Krsna in person, through His Holy Name.
* Open your heart and allow the Holy Name to do His mysterious work on it.
* PRICE: The main price to pay for attending this wonderful event is an intense greed for deepening our relationship with the Holy Name. A small fee will be charged for the prasadam. The accommodation can be booked separately - either in the Guest House on the farm, or in the nearby towns.
*QUALIFICATION: This seminar is for seriously practicing devotees, since it is aimed to bring us to deeper levels of chanting. Therefore the participating devotees should be chanting some rounds regularly for at least one year.
We have rented the Community Hall in Millfield, so we can have a peaceful space in seclusion to conduct the retreat seminar. We could not find a suitable venue at the temple, and on weekends there are also many visitors coming which may create restlessness and distractions. So the Community Hall will create a sacred space for us to fully concentrate on deepening our relationship with the holy name.
The address of the Community Hall is:
Crawfordville/Millfield Community Hall, 25 Bennett Street,
Millfield 2325 View Map

As you may understand from the schedule above, this retreat requires full attention and deep absorption in order to receive a transformational experience. All presentations and discussions are systematically building up, and we gain most benefit by attending them all.
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer supervision to children of attending parents. We also cannot expect that children will quietly sit through all the seminar sessions. In order to respect the deep and silent mood of the retreat, we have to humbly request the parents of young children to make their own arrangements for the supervision of their children in order not to disturb the atmosphere of the retreat.
