Learn to serve!

Nāma-ruci (taste for the Holy Name), Jīva-dayā (compassion for all living beings), and vaiṣṇava-sevā (service to the Vaiṣṇavas) — Caitanya Mahāprabhu taught that these three principles are the most direct path to spiritual perfection.
Let us learn together!

Baltic Summer Vaishnava Festival invites all to get to know the Vaishnava culture, the ancient Vedic tradition. Lectures by deciples of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, lectures for beginners, vegetarian food, enchanting kirtans (musical meditation), sober people, exotic clothes, beautiful nature, morning meditation (from 5:00 AM!) and many other spiritual entertainment!

We invite to participate both advanced bhakti yogis and the curious one who want to explore this amazing culture!!
