Date: 21st Sep 2026
Location: Thaltej Gam Metro Station & Local Market
Time: 8:00 PM – 9:30 PM
Attendance: 20 devotees
Experience:
A deeply touching and vibrant sankirtan evening! Devotees took Harinam right into the bustling vegetable market, where 15+ children eagerly joined the party, dancing and chanting at the top of their lungs. Hundreds of vendors and evening shoppers paused to chant the Maha-Mantra along with the kirtan. To conclude the evening, a local devotee Mataji kindly hosted the party at her home for a sweet 15-minute kirtan and lovingly served snack prasad.
