Don’t toucha my rounds!

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, Kirtaniyah Sada Harih) My life is hectic, going from one program to another and one place to another. It never stops!

The goal of life

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 12 April 2020, Durban, South Africa, Vyasa Puja Lecture) I have had the fortune of staying in Vrndavana. There were prices of austerities to pay undoubtedly. I had a lot of malaria in the Holy Dhama. In one year, I had it twelve times and each time it took about two weeks
