Thursday April 2nd is Rama Navami, the appearance of Lord Rama. Lord Rama is an incarnation of Krishna who appeared in Ayodhya (in current day Uttar Pradesh, India) as the son of King Dasaratha. During Lord Rama’s reign, all the citizens were happy, religious and their necessities of life were provided for. He was a virtuous, charitable and dutiful King. He is particularly known for his victorious battle with the ten-headed demon Ravana, the evil King of Lanka thereby freeing his wife Sita from the demon’s captivity. Through his life, he exemplified heroism, morality and good governance.
Due to COVID19 precautions the Temple remains closed to the public (CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION), as such we will be hosting special virtual celebrations.
Celebrations will begin on Monday March 30th and continue through Thursday April 2nd. Monday through Wednesday we will be hosting dramatic readings from “RAMAYANA, INDIA’S IMMORTAL TALE OF ADVENTURE, LOVE, AND WISDOM”. These readings will be facilitated by HH Bhaktimarga Swami from 7:00pm – 7:20pm EST. These live readings will be broadcast on our Facebook Page “ISKCON Toronto: The Hare Krishna Centre”.
Celebrations will conclude on Thursday when HH Bhaktimarga Swami will give a special Class from 6:30pm – 7:30pm EST. This live class will be broadcast on our Facebook Page “ISKCON Toronto: The Hare Krishna Centre”.
