To avoid fragmentations and dispersions during the lectures, we invite the respectful Sannyasis and senior Vaisnavas who will speak, to select in advance a specific theme (Jaiva-dharma, Guru-tattva, Upadesamrta, how to perform bhajans or deities worship, Maha-mantra, vaidhi and raganuga-bhakti, and so on). In this way it will be possible to follow a specific course and go deep into the arguments discussed, in order to give a training to the young and give new insights to the seniors.

The preachers who are willing to join the festival are kindly invited to inform us as soon as possible about the arguments they will discuss in order to be published and updated in the festival website.

Gaura Premanande!
