Hare Krishna dear Volunteers,

We extend our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to each and every one of you who helped make today's Nrisimha-chaturdashi celebration a grand success. Your dedication, hard work, and enthusiasm were truly inspiring and made all the difference in creating a joyful and memorable experience for everyone who attended.

We would like to express our special thanks to His Grace Charu Chaitanya prabhu for leading a memorable fire sacrifice and to the Mahabhavas band (Siddharth, Suneeta, and the amazing mridanga player) as well as Ravneet mataji and other kirtan singers for their enthusiastic chanting. Your contributions added a beautiful dimension to the event and helped to uplift and inspire us all.

We are also grateful for all the other tasks that were taken care of by our volunteers, including preparing the grounds, installing the shed and toilet, cleaning up before and afterwards, putting up and disassembling the tents, cutting up, cooking, and serving prasadam, and bringing preparations and flowers for offering, among other helpful tasks. Each one of you played an important role in making the event a success, and we appreciate your efforts and hard work.

Once again, thank you all for your time, energy, and dedication in making today's celebration a grand success. We look forward to working with you all again in future events.

Hare Krishna, dear Contributors,

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to all the generous individuals who gave donations of money, groceries, flowers, and other items for the Nrisimha-chaturdashi celebration. Your contributions helped to make the event even more special and meaningful, and we are grateful for your support and kindness. Your donations have helped to cover the costs of the event and have enabled us to continue serving the community with devotion and enthusiasm. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and hope that you continue to support us in our endeavors.

Hare Krishna, dear Guests,

Finally, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all those who attended and participated in the Nrisimha-chaturdashi celebration. Your presence and participation added joy and enthusiasm to the event, and we are grateful for your support and encouragement. We hope that the devotional activities of the day, including the yajna, kirtan, and katha, have inspired and uplifted you, and that you have felt the loving embrace of Lord Nrisimha. We look forward to seeing you all again at our regular temple programs and at the Goshala, whether it is to feed the cows, to offer some service, or just to enjoy a good time with the community.

Thank you once again for your support and participation in the Nrisimha-chaturdashi celebration.

With gratitude and appreciation,
The Gopala Krishna Gopala community.

Hare Krishna,

We extend our warmest greetings to the devotees and guests of Gopala Krishna Gopala who will be joining us for the Nrisimha-chaturdashi celebration on Sunday, May 7th.

We would like to emphasize the importance of attentive participation in the devotional activities of the day, including Nrisimha-yajna, kirtan, and katha (lecture). These activities are very auspicious and provide eternal benefits to the participants and their families. Moreover, the celebration is a tribute to the Lord's appearance day, and we invite all of you to join us in offering our heartfelt prayers, gratitude and devotion to Him.

Furthermore, we would like to bring to your attention that a very inauspicious solar eclipse has just occurred, and a very inauspicious lunar eclipse is expected to occur tomorrow morning. The best way to counteract their malefic effects is to render devotional service to the Lord by chanting His Holy Name and listening and discussing His astonishing pastimes.

While chit-chatting and socializing are welcome on this auspicious occasion, we urge everyone to keep the main focus on the Lord and devotional service to Him for maximum benefit.

We would like to express our gratitude to the guests and their children for treating the Lord's cows and His goshala property with respect and consideration. We request parents to watch over their children at all times. Although we take utmost care to ensure the safety of our guests, all responsibility for their safety lies with them.

Once again, we welcome you all to this joyous occasion and look forward to spending a wonderful day in the service of the Lord.

Thank you.

Your servants,
The Gopala Krishna Gopala community.
