Joy of the soul
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 21 March 2013, Cape Town, South Africa, BYS Picnic Talk) Kirtan, or mantra meditation, is something that you got to do. How can you describe it?

On Thursday 9th March at 12.06pm, under the gaze of Śrī Giriraja, in the holy land of Śrī Vṛndāvana dhāma, in the loving company of his spiritual master and the vaisnavas, with a resounding kirtan party, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami departed from this material realm.
