In their own words
Day 7 Update | WHNF Morning Program (Grand Finale)
Date: 23rd Sep 2026
Location: Kankaria Lake
Time: 6:15 AM – 8:15 AM
Attendance: 15 devotees + 15+ members of a local morning exercise group
Experience:
A memorable, heart-warming conclusion to the morning Harinam sessions of WHNF 2026! A local daily exercise/walking group—who had joyfully joined us last year as well—reconnected with the sankirtan party. They specifically requested extended kirtan so they could dance and chant wholeheartedly. Honoring their eagerness, devotees extended the kirtan by 15 minutes, wrapping up the festival mornings with immense joy and transcendental celebration!
