HOMECOMING 2025
A Glimpse into the Playground of God π¦
Thursday 25th December 2025 to Friday 2nd January 2026
WHAT TO EXPECT π
Perhaps you've experienced a Friday Night Kirtan πΉ, attended a KCSOC seminar π€, volunteered with the cows through Bhakti Community π, or simply resonated with the Living Name Sanga as you study Srila Prabhupada's books πΒ
Wherever you are on your spiritual path, we all share the desire to know what's next π€ How do we take our connection to the next level πͺΒ
THE LOCATION π
Govardhan Hill π»
The answer brings us to a beautiful place like no other - Govardhan Hill π€ This isnβt just any hill; itβs Krishna Himself, the kindest and most loving form of the Lord β Being in Girirajβs presence feels like truly coming home π . Imagine walking on the very ground where Krishna and His cows wandered, chanting their names and serving at Radha Kund and Syama Kund - feeling Girirajβs loving shelter all around us π²Β
Govardhan is where Krishna showed us what real protection and love look like, lifting the hill for His devotees and reminding us that He is always there for us π Itβs a place of overwhelming sweetness and a chance to remind ourselves that devotion is about love and surrender π
Prepare for transformative experiences, with the added gift of seeing the Dham through the eyes of our esteemed mentors who bring its essence to life 𧬠This is the culmination of our spiritual journey - the return home β°οΈπ¦
Vrindavan π¦
βThough Vrindavana is undoubtedly a transcendent abode and earthly pilgrimage site, itβs ultimately a mysterious space of consciousness. This magical space is actually the simplest and most accessible of all experiences.
To access it, the aspirant must uncover their innermost authentic spiritual persona, craft a life in which everything connects to it, and then fully embrace the opportunity to live it out. At that time, we βdrop timeβ and effortlessly rest in the eternal present. Lifeβs roles and responsibilities go on, but our consciousness rests in another dimension.β
~ H.H. S.B. Keshava Swami π§‘
Accommodation π

The space will allow us to disconnect from the hustle of India and delve deeper into our spiritual practice πΏ
