Friday 1st August - Tulasi - the sacred plant of devotion

This week, our very own Bhaktin Sipra will give a talk on the sacred plant Tulasi devi, how she is respected as a goddess and how she relates to Krishna Bhakti.

In temples all over the world. prayers are recited each morning along with an Arti to Tulasi devi while devotees circumambulate Her in the plant form.

vrndāyai tulasī-devyai

priyāyai keśavasya ca

visnu-bhakti-prade devī

satya vatyai namo namah

“I offer my repeated obeisances unto Vrinda, Srimati Tulasi Devi, who is very dear to Lord Kesava. O goddess, you bestow devotional service to Krishna and you possess the highest truth.”

As usual we will also have Kirtans (chanting with musical instruments) and finish with a Veggie/Vegan Spiritual Feast.

We look forward to seeing you there!
