Do You Have Anything We Can Read?


by Bhaktin Rita We can touch people’s hearts by talking with them in the temple — even if they originally came to New Vrindaban only as tourists. For example, on Sunday, a bus from New York visited New Vrindaban. All the guests were from Russia. Although they toured the Palace as a group, they split […]

He Has Good Handwriting


by Bhaktin Rita Today, another bus load of school children from Wheeling’s inner city toured New Vrindaban. There were eleven children, age 8-11. The first stop was Prabhupada’s Palace of Gold. The children loved everything! They saw the hills and forests of West Virginia from the balcony. They visited the rose garden and threw coins […]

I Can’t Get That Song Out Of My Head


by Bhaktin Rita On Tuesday, a group of fifteen 12-15-year old kids from the inner city of Wheeling visited New Vrindaban. They arrived promptly at 10:30, and went straight to the temple room.

Almost right at the beginning of the festival, I saw a young lady, Elizabeth, standing in one corner of the tent. She was listening and watching, and seemed to be enjoying the festival. She was very pretty, dressed in […]

As I type this, about 11 hours of the 24 Hour Kirtan still remain and HH Radhanath Swami is singing to a packed temple.
