The Grace of the Master shines in the heart of a devotee as the blissful experience of Radha Krishn love. The following are some experiences from past participants of the akhand namsankirtan:

"
I remember in one of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj's speeches, he said our mind is impure because of our material attachments, and it can be purified through continuous remembrance of Radha Krishn. He said, in the beginning, we have to do some effort to keep the mind engaged in remembrance, and slowly, affinity for the name of Radha Krishn is developed. Through the 12-hour "Hare Ram" sankirtan, these teachings helped me to increase my affinity for Radha Krishna.

"
After immersing myself in the 12-hour chanting at Radha Madhav Dham, I felt such a devotional upfliftment, my devotional mind had been revitalized. I felt Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj closer to me than ever before and I also felt such a deep sense of happiness. I now truly understand the importance and the immense benefit that can be gained by akhand namsankirtan.

RAYS youth convention includes trip to Radha Madhav Dham

Rajasthanis Abroad Youth Samaj (RAYS) hosted a very successful youth convention in Austin, Texas this past Labor Day weekend. At 32 attendees, the turnout was great! The group was well engaged throughout the weekend, as could be seen by the substantial participation in all of the weekend's organized events. The scope of these activities ranged from a fun excursion to Zilker Park, where the group enjoyed a cool dip in a nearby river, to a fruitful discussion on the grounds of Radha Madhav Dham.

The weekend culminated in a Sunday afternoon trip to Radha Madhav Dham. The group engaged in a fun and highly competitive game of India-themed Jeopardy while snacking on delicious samosas and donuts. The "Final Jeopardy" question was "What does it mean to be Marwari".
