Dear Godbrothers and Godsisters, Devotees and Friends,

The 76th Appearance Day Festival of the most worshipable Acharyya, His Divine Grace Om Visnupad Sri Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj, will be celebrated here on Tuesday 28th December 2004. His Divine Grace is the dearmost beloved disciple and associate of the Emperor of Sannyasi Kings, His Divine Grace Om Visnupad Sri Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, who during his own manifest lifetime installed Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj on his exalted throne as the Sevaite-President-Acharyya of the world-renowned institution, Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, along with its Spiritually Affiliated Centres and Branches world-wide.

This year we, the devotees of the Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, have arranged from the 27th to 31st December ’04 a grand festival accompanied by Kirttan, special worship, glorification, revered offerings to the Temple Deities Sri Sri Guru-Gauranga-Gandharvva-Govindasundar-Giridhari-Laksmi-Varahadev and Gopaljiu, along with respectful Puja offerings unto the lotus feet of His Divine Grace and the distribution of Maha-Prasadam here at Sri Math, and at Sripat Bamunpara (his holy Appearance Place) and at our Temples in Calcutta.

Please note, that Srila Govinda Maharaj himself is most likely to be in California for this occasion.

We will be pleased to have the kind company and participation of you and your friends to enhance this great devotional festival.
