What a delightful surprise to spend my first Christmas in Radha K***a! It was truly a blessing to be a part of welcoming Thakura-ji, Sri Sri Radha Vinoda-Bihari, into Their new home at Kunja Kuti ashram. The morning unfolded with sweet bhajans and nourishing hari-katha, followed by lunch prasadam, including cake.

Especially touching were bhajans like Bimala Vaisnave, Nitai Guna Mani Amar, and Radha-K***a Tata. The program concluded with Madhukar das singing a beautiful offering of Sri Sri Radha-Vinoda-Bihari Tattvastakam, followed by bhoga-arati led by Kishori Mohan das.

The speakers spoke beautifully on the glories of Radha-K***a, Gaura-tattva, the path of sadhana following in the footsteps of the six Gosvamis, and heartfelt remembrances of our beloved Srila Gurudeva, Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja.

In honor of Christmas, Srila Prabhupada’s words glorifying Jesus Christ were also shared, touching on the essence of Christ’s teachings and the universal call to develop love of God.

Feeling deeply grateful for these precious moments with spiritual family and association.

🌿 New Music Video Release: Vrnda Devyastakam 🌿
https://youtu.be/dnyDEypKetg

In celebration of Kesava-vrat, I’m so happy to share this offering with you—a meditative, visual journey of the Vrnda Devyastakam, now available to support and inspire your daily worship.

Kesava-vrat is a powerful and auspicious month-long devotional practice where we lovingly water Tulsi Devi and bathe Salagram or Giriraja daily. One beautiful practice during this time is to sing the Vrnda Devyastakam each day, deepening our connection with Sri Vrnda Devi.

I offer this video as a heartfelt gift for your practice during this sacred time. May it bring you joy, inspiration, and a sweet moment of connection with Her divine presence.

Join us in Oregon this September 11th - 14th for the Heart of Vraja: Women's Retreat ! We will be singing this prayer along with many more together every day.

Feeling deeply honored to have presented the transcendental art of Srimati Syamarani Dasi at the Conference on Spirituality and the Arts at Harvard Divinity School last week. Thank you for sponsoring and organizing this beautiful service opportunity.

I presented a talk entitled, "From Canvas to Living Color: The Ritual and Sonic Dimensions in the Bhakti Art of Syamarani Dasi."

It was a joy to share about Syamarani didi's life and personal journey with her diksa and siksa gurus, Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudeva (Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja) -- highlighting her creative process and techniques, culminating in her masterpiece, "Seva Kunja," which powerfully illustrates how kirtan (sacred sound) serves as the very life force of Bhakti Art.

Endless gratitude to and Prema ji for their incredible love and support throughout the conference. To Prema for his invaluable help with the original proposal and encouragement over the past few months, and for introducing me and giving me the confidence I needed on the day. And Vasanti for the late night discussions, edits, and help putting together the slideshow, for organizing the entire trip and so much more. I couldn’t have done it without you! 🙏

Truly a team offering.

And to the entire community of friends and spiritual family who have been a part of this offering, my eternal gratitude and heartfelt pranam. ❤️🙏

Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Jayati!

I'm beyond excited to announce our next Heart of Vraja: Women's Retreat this September in Oregon! 🌿💛

There are only 3 Early Bird spots left—one of them could be yours! If you feel called to join us, now is the time. And if you know someone who would love this experience, please help us spread the word!

This retreat is so close to my heart, as Srila Gurudeva personally instructed me to support women in bhakti, and this is a direct way to fulfill his vision.

Each year, this gathering grows in depth and strength. For many of us, it has been truly life-changing — deepening our sadhana and relationships with each other, our mentors, and our sisters in bhakti in ways that continue to resonate and inspire us long after the retreat ends.

I can’t wait to share this sacred experience with you. Will you be there? 💫

Re-reading the Caitanya-caritamrta systematically from beginning to end has been a heartfelt dream of mine for so many years—and I’m over the moon to finally be living this dream! ✨

I started alone, but when a few friends asked to join, things grew from there into our "CC Daily" reading and discussion group.

This has been such a source of strength and joy in my life and it's too wonderful not to share.

Tomorrow, we’ll begin Adi-lila, Volume 2, and you are warmly invited to join us! Each session, we dive into the beautiful Bengali verses, their translations, and Srila Prabhupada’s purports. Along the way, we share reflections, questions, and meaningful insights that bring the text to life in fresh and personal ways.

This is a chance to immerse ourselves in the teachings of Lord Caitanya and connect with each other in bhakti. Whether you’re reading the Caitanya-caritamrta for the first time or it’s been a cherished companion on your spiritual path for years, there’s something deeply transformative about coming together to explore its profound messages relish its nectar together.

And it really is a case of "the more, the merrier"—the insights and questions from the group enrich the experience for everyone in ways I could have never imagined. 💛

This is a virtual meeting held on Zoom (not live-streamed or posted publicly), and we’d love for you to join us. To receive the links, please join our WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/IyLFrkgdHcVCMrf3mYafxK
