The Boat Festival - 18.3.2006
All glories to the transcendental boat festival of Sri Sri Radha Shyamasunder. Sometimes in the Yamuna river, sometimes at Manasi Ganga and sometimes in our temple, Radhe Shyama and the Gopis go for a boat ride. The boat appears in various shapes - a swanlike boat, or a boat the shape of a peacock, and this year in our temple, the boat was built like a beautiful flower house, nicely decorated with flower garlands and various flowers.
