The guitar. Hare Krishna and Revati Raman Prabhu. And all senior devotees, disciples, God brothers who have come today. We know that Guru Maharaj have a special how to say the safari songs he likes very much. I remember, you know, in 2000, no. 1999 when we did the Ganga safari, he likes so much this song. Every place in the world he was traveling, he was chanting this song. And the next year the GBC meetings. All the GBCs they were meeting there very nicely. Very serious. Baguru Madas come and he teach everybody how to chant the the song of Ganga gang. So he was telling everyone please chant. But the GBC they were chanting louder than you.
Take a joregaitilam.
But I will give you one more try. Okay. But now this song is not about Ganga. We're going to Yamuna. Now we going to Vrindavan Dham. So this is the song of the Vrindavan safari. So this is very sweet melody. This melody is done by very dear devotees of Krishna. The Sila Prabhupada preached to them. And the musicians are. They were the most famous musicians in the whole world. This is a melody composed by The Beatles and George Harrison he came here to Mayapur and Guru Maharas he was. They were taking Prashadan together. So we are ready then we're going.
