Radhe Radhe Pranam to all devotees.
Today was all about Iskcon prasadam, my favorite.
My day started at 5:30 a.m.
We had plans to visit Iskcon temple Mira Road so I had to complete my daily sadhana, household duties, and individual schedule early.
First I did my sadhana.
After that, I quickly cleaned the kitchen (post-breakfast), swept the floors, and finished my 10-minute home tidy-up routine to ensure everything was in place and the house was neat and tidy when we got back.
One important rule in my house is to complete the non-negotiable duties (seva) before leaving.
We were going for lunch prasadam. Hence, no meal preparations today.
Breakfast was a Mango milkshake. (Forgot to click pictures)
We reached Iskcon temple in the late afternoon since we had a surprise visit.
The lunch prasadam as traditionally was heartwarming.
It’s deity resting time from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. so the temple reopens at 4:30 p.m..
We always love to hang out in the temple space after having prasadam.
At 4:30 p.m. Lord’s darshan is open again for everyone.
We attended aarti and had the beautiful darshan of the Lord.
In Iskcon Mira Road, there’s Sri Sri Jagannath Swami, Subhadra Maiyya, and Baldev Dau on the right, Sri Sri RadhaGiridhariji in the center, and Gaur-Nitai deities on the left.
The deities were beautifully dressed in maroon attire.
The environment and experience were as always – divine.
It is very peaceful all along.
The preparations for Sri Ram Navami were underway in the temple and outside.
We came back home in the evening.
We got some food for dinner from the Govindas Bakery.
After that, I completed my laundry routine. Picked up the house quickly. Cleaned the kitchen. And, checked the next day’s preparations for Sri Ram Navami.
That was all about my day.
Be sure to share how you all celebrated Sri Ram Navami. Thank you so much for reading. Happy Homemaking!
