On September 22nd-24th, 2023, the community of Radha-Parisisvara temple will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the installation of Sri-Sri Radha-Parisisvara on the most auspicious day of Radhastami.
On the 22nd, a Maha Harinam will proceed from place Saint-Michel (the historical location where devotees would go on Harinam back then) to rue Lesueur (which was the former location of the temple), passing by Luxembourg Park, where Srila Prabhupada once held an initiation ceremony.
On the 23rd, devotees will celebrate Radhastami and revisit moments of the installation of Sri Sri Radha-Parisisvara.
On the 24th, devotees will share the glories of Sri Sri Radha-Parisisvara, concluding with a cultural program and the presence of ambassadors and local representatives. A special invitation was extended to disciples of Srila Prabhupada and devotees who were present during the installation to speak on a Zoom call for the benefit of the assembled devotees. Guest speakers like HH Indradyumna Swami are already creating a lot of anticipation for the French Yatra. HH Janananda Goswami Maharaj and Dr. Gopaswami Prabhu are also expected at the ceremony. Everyone is invited to the Radha-Parisisvara temple to chant the holy names on this most auspicious occasion.
Local devotees will be able to add this jubilee celebration to the list of recent successful festivals like Krsna Janmashtami, the 35th Ratha-Yatra, and the visits of different honorable guests, including HH Radhanath Swami and HH Bhakti Vikasa Swami. In this way, the French Yatra continues to exceed all expectations and inspires hope for the future of Krishna Consciousness in France.
