Say please accept our most yeah so Guru Maharaj, your army at Baroda they are trying to serve your divine grace. And I will just give you very very brief details about that. So we have like yeah so by your mercy and empowerment our digital preaching journey started after Corona and then now as of now we have like programs going on in three languages. Gujarati, Hindi and Marathi. We have around six programs in Marathi, six programs in Hindi and two programs in Gujarati. So this is all. All maximum programs are digital online programs. And we have like members joining us from Gujarat, Maharashtra, Pradesh, some from Canada, US and UK also devotee joins to us on this in these online programs.

And.

Your wonderful disciples they are doing wonderful service. And then with with these programs whatever is going on we are about to start now 45 house programs in different locations. 45 house programs it will be different states. Some are in Gujarat, some are in. Some are in Maharashtra. So like that is starting and again these programs will be again like where physically the old members will come to the house. And then we will have programs being conducted from Corona. It will be transmitted through our Microsoft Teams. And then it will be brought like presented on television. And then this program also we try to make it interactive by having quiz and all these things. So basically through this online preaching we are able to reach to so many people. And then we have started even the digital temple morning program concept to help the devotees Every day morning we have 5:30 to 8pM 8am daily we have morning program starts with Manglaarthi and then one morning session. Then one verse from Bhagavata one verse from like that we have six, six morning programs going on. So practically all together we have every Monday we used to have Bhagavad Gita study class but recently in temple it's called Temple Paloda we are. We got approval to conduct the program there. So since last six weeks started a program. When we started program we started with 38 participants. Now 120 plus participants are there. And last week his grace when he saw the crowd he was very happy and he said very soon Mantresh, you will reach to 500. Very excited to see the response. So locally also it is growing by your mercy it is growing. And digitally online programs also it is flourishing and with this 40, 45 host programs we are very very hopeful and we be back for your mercy that this really works out. And then there will be further explosion because we will be able to reach to so many people through this digital program. So Guruma, today actually I want. I will not speak much and we have like the leaders, those who are preaching. Everybody is given two, three minutes to talk to you.

So.

So they will also like. They would like to share something. So maybe I'll hand over to the mic to Nithya. She will introduce a few readers those who are preaching and then they can say something to you about their services. And before I hand it over to her she. I just say what she does. Actually she used to conduct. She used to conduct one day Bhagavad Gita study class for all. We have centralized program also where all the devotee comes. So she used to conduct that Monday study class which we have stopped now because we started this Friday evening program in the temple she conducts Thursday we have program for the sheltered and initiated devotees called Boiling the milk Deeper understanding of Krishna consciousness. We have centralized morning program on Sundays so and apart from that various coordination services for our yada, all the sidas and then she will just introduce all the members to all the like leaders. Not members, leaders to you Hare Krishna.

Hare Krishna. Please accept our most. I would like to introduce Mahagopika Mahdaji first. She's a Hindu teacher and she has been devotee since 2005. She's my fourth sister also and she is our first Hindi teacher and she's also pursuing her Bhatti Shastri and most wonderful thing is she has made all her family members devotees say whatever she wants to in two minutes. I am engaged in this undeterred service and I am preaching in Hindi language. I started online program last year. From that three members took initiation. Five members are going to take initiation. One member is taking shelter today six members are going to start house programs. One in Kel, Haryana. Two in Baroda. Two in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. One in Solka, Madhya Pradesh. So they. They all are very enthusiastic to start this preaching program at their home. One member is engaged in Hindi translation seva of your Fortnite Eve newsletter and also help in preparing its module for children program. Please we have daily morning programs. Our Hindi cell members are doing morning programs and doing lots of Sila like singing and performing artist daily taking Bhagavad Gita classes and Srinambhat class. Some members from Hindi s are going to start house program. So please bless all the members from Hindi Hindi to this please bless me also so that I can do my Sadhana properly. And also bless me so that I can complete my 16 rounds properly daily. In future I want to do village preaching and jail preaching. Please give me blessing for that. Village preaching and jail jail preaching and village preaching.

Their preaching is still going on and they are conducting programs from there is undergoing dialysis and PR mother has undergone spinal cord operation. So they both are. They have both moved for a moment from Baroda to Pune but their programs are still going on. So Manam Prabhu, are you there?

Here unmute yourself and speak.

And after that very mercy, very mercifully. You have sent so many souls to us to conduct BHA and in Maish almost 10 years we have been doing B during Corona I lost my job and then came to India. After that there was a new opportunity of online bridging. 2020 onwards there are three ways we have done online preaching. There's a Bhagavad Gita in 18 days course online course that is done. Almost five six batches have completed. Also those who were very serious about it then and now two Bhaktiksha programs are going on. All these are in Marathi also. As Prabhu mentioned daily morning programs are going on and almost 2530 they attend every day morning 5:30 to 8 program which includes Mangalati Nansay Aarti. After that one and a half hours of Hari Krishna Japan and then after that one or two voices from. So from these online members. Few of them have got initiated and some of them have taken and. And now a few members are able to take my wish. I wish that in this 2024 year those who are potential Bhakti Rupha leaders by your mercy they can start their own Bhakti programs in Mar. Most of the members are based in Mumbai and Pune. So Guru Maharaj, I beg for your mercy. For ourselves as well as all the Batiksha members. Because of your mercy only we can get little bit success in preaching. Thank you very much.

I want some advice from you my lead. My Matajis who are in the sessions are interested in Bhakti groupsh. They are doing well. They are doing eight to ten rounds. But anyhow they are not getting the taste. They are telling that we don't have much time. They have busy schedules. They are studying, they are doing jobs. They are managing household works. And so we are not getting time to chant 16 rounds. So please can you just advise me? How can I just tell them to grow their taste.
