Please accept my humble obeisances.
My name is Ramakrishnan and I am Chairman of the ISKCON
Youth Forum -IYF in the Sri Sri Radha Parthasarathi
temple. With all humility, we would like to welcome you to
the IYF and thank you for the interest shown. IYF in New
Delhi is guided by His Grace Mohan Rup Das who is the
Director of this forum.The key focus of IYF is to ensure
personality development and channelise constructive
efforts towarding making a difference to the life around
us. But, the central theme to all this is Lord Krishna,
his teachings and the lives and message of his pure
devotees. Our founder Acharya Srila Prabhupad was very
keen on youth driving the growth and revival of
spirituality . To this end, youth like you who are well
placed academically and professionally will be assets to
IYF. We have about 80-100 youths, most of whom are either
studying or employed. I personally work for a Media
company.
In IYF, every Thursday and Sunday, we meet and have
Classes from ancient Indian scriptures like Bhagavad
Gita,Srimad Bhagavatam etc. Youth themselves give lectures
though sometimes senior devotees share their realizations
with us. We also have group discussions, quizzes, video
shows, public speaking sessions, seminars on
communication, mind control etc. Also, book distribution
and Kirtan and lecture programs in Colleges, temples etc
is an integral part of our routine and is a truly reinvigorating
experience.
We also organize trips to Vrindavan, Mayapur etc. On a
regular basis, we meet in the Library in the temple at 4
PM on Sunday and 7.30 PM on Thursday. You are heartily
welcomed to this program and for Prasadam after that.
There will be a video show after this class and then a
wonderful Arti at the temple. You can utilise this time to
also discuss and have communicative association with youth
with different realizations.
Your servant
Ramakrishnan
