Here are some pictures that I took at Radhastami. They do not give a complete overview of the festival--perhaps someone else took pictures from the second class, etc.?
At the end of the first class, Guru-nistha received the saffron vesa from Guru Maharaja (saffron dhoti), thereby officially entering the second phase of Audarya's monastic training. Guru Maharaja said a few heartfelt words and asked for the blessings of all the devotees and asked that if anyone had any objection to please speak up. Everyone lovingly approved. Guru-nistha is the first to graduate to our second stage of monastic training in our new system, and we all felt that his receiving the saffron vesa was so fitting. We are proud to have him in the fold and have the highest hopes for him. Gurunistha dasa brahmacari ki jaya!
I'm very happy to read this! Congratulations, Gurunistha!
Congrats, Gurunistha! I had heard rumors about this coming up, and am very happy for you. Keep the flag flying high!
sorry i could not be there but i am extremely happy for Gurunistha who is very deserving of becoming a brahmacari and thanks for finally posting some pictures.
