OUTREACH In July the Outreach Department carried out its regular programmes online. Dayal Mora dasa has been running a five-day live Bhagavad-Gita study every morning at 11.00am on the ISKCON-London Facebook page. Other online programmes for newcomers such as Wisdom Wednesdays and Spiritual Technologies continued on the Bhakti Yoga London Facebook and Instagram pages, every Wednesday 6.00pm and Thursday 6.30pm. Wisdom Wednesdays is a study group facilitated by Shyam Govinda dasa and involves studying the text Sri Isopanisad with a guest-speaker every week. Spiritual Technologies is a study group which focuses on studying the Bhagavad-Gita and involves reading, discussion and questions and answers. This is also facilitated by Shyam Govinda dasa.
FREE SPIRIT SUNDAYS The Outreach team started a new outdoor kirtan programme called ‘Free Spirit Sundays’ taking place in Soho Square Park. It takes place every Sunday afternoon from 3.00pm onwards. It’s proven to be an attractive and inviting programme to devotees and passers-by to come and join in the kirtan. Those that have joined in found the Hare Krishna kirtan enchanting and meditative. As there is plenty of space in the park, people can still maintain social distancing.
