Nov 5, MATHURA, INDIA (SUN) — Hundreds of Lord Krishna devotees today went out on 'Vrindavan Parikrama' to mark the 'Nirvana' day of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) founder Prabhupada. The devotees comprised both Indian and foreign ISKCON members, who were showered with petals along the Parikrama path.
Krishna Balaram temple, from where the 'Vrindavan Parikrama' started, was chock-a-block with the devotees during Mangla Arti. The temple town reverberated with the holy chants of 'Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Ram Hare Ram Ram Ram Hare Hare'.
The rituals are to continue for the next day with special prayers and devotional songs.
