A big thank you goes out to all of our Vyasa Puja speakers that participated in this year’s Live-Stream-Zoom. Hearing from many of our senior disciples of Srila Prabhupada is an interesting mixture of realizations, stories and determinations. I know it took time out from your busy schedule, so again thank you.

I would also like to thank all those who helped make this Vyasa Puja Zoom happen from the administrative and technical side: Gaura Kumar, Yadunatha, Pancaratna, Jagannatha Gopal, Karan, Caitanyananda, Prabhavisnu, Priya Sakha, Toshan Nimai and Anantashesh as well as the garland makers and prasadam cookers.

We had some technical difficulties with sound at 26 2nd Avenue, but overall the sound was good. If you want to see the Zoom or hear any speakers that you were not able to hear at that time, you can go to the URLs below. In the text box directly below the YouTube video box look for the word “more.” If you click that word, the entire definition text box opens up and you will see all the Timestamps for all of our speakers. If you click on the blue Timestamp you will be rocket propelled to the point in time when that speaker begins the offering.

The YouTube video is available on two YouTube Channels: my YouTube Channel “KTV-NYC” or also available on the GBCSPT Mayapur Channel “GBCSPT”
