Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj departed for Ekachakra Dham last Monday to begin preparations for Sri Nityananda Trayodashi. In addition to overseeing countless tasks and personally fulfilling many errands in the run-up to the festival, Srila Acharyadev continued to nourish the devotees with kirtan and Hari-katha, led several parikramas in the surrounding area, and daily sent preaching parties out to nearby towns such as Rampurhat and Tarapith.
The day itself has arrived and a grand festival is beginning this morning with a large international group in attendance; photos and news will be posted presently.
