World Holy Name in the Middle East

Chanting in the Middle East from Ekalavya Das on Vimeo.

Sept 11 - 17, 2010

Celebrating World Holy Name Festival 2010, I, Ekalavya Das, visited devotees of Mathuradesh in the Middle East.

Due to restrictions from the Muslim Government, I had to attend the programs dressed not in dhoti, but in pants.

We hung a sign, "Personality Development Seminar", in case any of the locals chanced to visit our program.

Every day there were blissful Kirtans in a basement rented hall so that the general public would not be aware of the programs.


Devotees enjoyed satsangas like a blissful Radhastami celebration with more than 400 in attendance.

"Vaishnava Relationships" and "Glories of the Holy Names" were the topics of some of the lectures.
