Hare Krishna
A sure cure for depression and job stress-Harinam!!!!!! I never ever think about my job or any other problems when I am doing Harinam!!!! It is so much fun!! Plus it is considered "Doing service" so you get "spiritual credit" for having so much fun!!! Now that is a real win-win situation. I don't plan on taking a vacation soon but I am thinking that for my next vacation I would like to take a "Harinam vacation". Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have heard that the Sadhu Sanga festival is very wonderful. Last year, I was told that it "sold out" very quickly. If you want to go, please sign up ASAP so you don't miss out.

Hare Krishna. Yes, the Vrndavan Temple is the very best! However, the last time I visited, I only found one small group one time outside the Temple doing Harinam. Perhaps things have changed now? Are they going outside the Temple more often these days doing Harinam with the general public in Vrndavan?
