From 16th to 20th of February 2017
at Ekachakra Dham
All girls between 14 and 20 years of age are welcome to join the fun!
We teenagers go through a very special phase in life. We want to gradually establish ourselves in this world, and we want to be accepted as individual and almost grown-up personalities, with our own desires, talents, inclinations, hopes and plans for our future.
We don’t like to be corrected and instructed by our parents any longer – we have heard this for so many years! Now we need other role models, heroes and mentors, who guide and inspire us. It does not mean that we are ungrateful to our parents – no, we are forever grateful for all the care and love our parents have given to us, but now we want to be treated and respected as adults, and we want to see our parents as friends to whom we may turn whenever we feel like.
We want to have some fun and explore the world. We need some adventure within the frame of Krsna consciousness – otherwise we might look outside for it. We want to experiment and learn from our own mistakes and decisions, and take responsibility for them. We don’t like to be pushed and forced to do things – otherwise we might even become rebellious…..! So please understand what we are going through…..!

Fees for the entire event – including accommodation, transport & prasadam
There are no set fees for any of our events because Srila Prabhupada clearly states throughout his books that spiritual upliftment should be available to one and all. Money should not be the criteria who can receive it and who can’t. This is an important principle of brahminical culture.
Donations given with a happy and affectionate heart complete the loving exchange of receiving spiritual care and inspiration.
Please register immediately – the available places are limited…….!
