London College of Vedic Studies

ONLINE COURSES During May and June, the London College of Vedic Studies (LCVS) were pleased to arrange a number of free online seminars during the lockdown. There were a range of speakers from India, UK and USA. The speakers spoke on a wide variety of valuable spiritual topics. The LCVS also arranged two special seminars to mark Nrsimha Caturdasi with guest speakers Jayadvaita Swami and Ranchor dasa. Another special seminar was arranged on Sunday 14th June (which was the planned day for London Rathayatra but was cancelled due to the lockdown) with guest speaker Keshav Anand dasa, who spoke on a special Rathayatra-themed seminar about the beautiful Jagannath-astakam prayers which reveal who is Lord Jagannatha and what is Lord Jagannatha’s mood. Please see below the seminars that took place.

“I attended all three parts of Murli Manohara dasa’s seminar on ‘How to Improve Your Chanting’. He shared his stories, wisdom, experience and elaborately described different aspects of chanting. He gave very useful insights and inspired me. Great investment during the lockdown time, highly recommended!” Maxim Chernetskiy, London

“I truly enjoyed the programme with Ranchor Prime. It was timely to attend a seminar about Lord Nrsimhadeva considering the current situation that the entire world is in. Ranchor Prabhu’s presentation was the perfect reminder of the sweetness of the Lord... His love and protection. The combination of chanting verses with the harmonium and sharing his experiences and realisations was precious. I hope that there will be more programmes with Ranchor Prime in the future.” Tiffany Cooper, Pennsylvania, USA

“Hare Krishna Ranchor Prabhu, thank you so much for your kind, encouraging and mature association.” Tribhangananda dasa, UK

“Thank you Nama Sankirtan Prabhu, well-paced and detailed presentation. Many thanks from Australia!” Mina Manning, Australia

“At first I thought this might be too advanced for me (the Siksastakam Prayers seminar by Keshav Anand dasa) but after a short while I realised I could understand. I have found this so very helpful. Especially as I really wondered why we chant and have been talking to devotees about prayer. Pure Nectar. Can’t thank you enough for this service.” Kelly Hendrick, London

“This session is very useful to understand the topic. Keshav Anand Prabhuji has explained so well, very grateful for his time. It’s a long session and he gave us his time so very grateful and thank you for organising this LCVS.” Divya Gaurangi devi dasi, UK

“Thank you so much for such a wonderful class Ranchor Prabhu! Truly humbled and grateful to have your association on here today. Looking forward to more of your talks soon. Thank you so much and thank you LCVS team for organising this!” Himani Gandhi, London

“Thank you so much Chaitanya Jivan Prabhu - we both really enjoyed your seminar and would love a Part Two!” Reni Vadgama, UK
