Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu Jayanthi Celebrations in North America

By the immense grace of Guru Maharaj HH Maharanyam Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji, G.O.D. USA & Canada celebrated Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu Jayanti by conducting an online North America-wide Nama Saptaham from March 22nd to 28th, as well regional celebrations in several GOD Satsang centers.

In the nationwide Nama Saptaham, which became global with devotees from several countries participating in it, Mahamantra was chanted daily for 12 hours via an online meeting platform. Around 355 devotees took turns to lead the chanting, while many others chanted along (on mute) throughout the day. Devotees from 37 different North American cities from 25 states, were also joined by devotees from India, Australia, New Zealand, and UK in the enthusiastic flow of Nama kirtan.

Each day’s Nama commenced with a prayer from our Madhurapuri Ashram by disciple of Sri Swamiji, Sri Ramanujamji, and concluded daily with a katha by him on the greatness of the divine name through incidents from the lives of various sadhus who have embraced it.

These kathas are available to listen to on our YouTube channel – https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf2GTja1Pr3PLJPgibEbB1LolHt4ghJB-
