VIHE Govardhan Retreat 2016

Govardhanretreat16

Every year at the end of month Kartik VIHE holds the annual Govardhan Retreat. Devotees from all around the world come to participate in a wonderful week of Krsna-katha, ecstatic kirtans and many breathtaking darsanas of Giriraja Govardhana. The sublime atmosphere of the sacred Govardhana Hill enables those who live and preach outside of the Holy Dhama to immerse themselves in the magical world of Krsnas pastimes. We invite you to join us for this unique opportunity to enhance your devotional life and your preaching with an unforgettable experience, since we believe that staying at Giriraja’s lotus feet while listening to krsna-katha is the perfection of human life.

Please visit our photogallery to get a glimpse of Govardhan Retreat and read some of the devotees’ appreciations. The recordings of the previous years’ retreats are available from the VIHE Audio Ministry.

The dates for Govardhan Retreat 2016 are November 27 – December 4.
