God calls his people to act as his hands and feet and voice, serving the people in the community and communicating to them, in Word & Deed, God's love. Part of Faith Community's action in that way includes making weekly trips to Wenceslas Square to pray for the city, and to speak God's love into the lives of the people who find themselves there.
These are inspired by Tibetan prayer flags, which Buddhist monks hang on the high steppes so the prayers printed on them can be whisked into the universe with help from the elements. I wanted something more culturally relevant than Sanskrit sutras, so I made my own with icons of the hand-made and the natural world. Flags are 9x6 inches each, cut from repurposed bedsheets, and zig-zag stitched to selvage from rolls of upholstery fabric. Images are painted with hand-cut stencils in water-based, low VOC spraypaint.

Portland's famous landmark and church, The Grotto, has a traditional Pietà sculpted at the base of a 110 foot cliff. Here, the public can come light prayer candles, attend mass, or just meditate in the scenery. You can barely make out the statue at the top of Our Sorrowful Mother looking over the city.
We were incredibly fortunate to have the presence of Paramahamsa Vishwananda during the Christmas season at Shree Peetha Nilaya Ashram in Germany. On Christmas Eve, we enjoyed a lovely evening meal together, which included many inspiring talks. Guruji spoke about the importance of not wasting time and to celebrate one's life.
Christmas day was also filled with a family vibe inviting everyone to get together and eat a delicious meal put together by the wonderful kitchen team. Talks were given and Swami Revati spoke about the importance of the Satguru.
At the end of the year, we had a gender split Darshan, which means there were Darshans just for men and another just for women. Guruji had spoken about the importance of coming together and setting up bhajan groups as well as the importance of not being lazy. Laziness is a quality that stagnates oneself on any path, be it material or spiritual and so one should not waste the preciousness of life.
On New year's Eve the Bhakti TV had again delivered an incredible programme filled with insights and talks from guests in house as well as those abroad. Kirtan interludes were given and those attending were able to enjoy the show whilst enjoying a few snacks. The night continued into the temple where rocking kirtan filled the air from 9pm up until midnight. The first arati of the year was given by our Paramahamsa Vishwananda. Everyone then moved to the upper field to enjoy a wonderful fireworks display and finally the night concluded with an incredible DJ set given by Rishi Amaranimai das where people danced to the name of God with Psy trance music.
The following day was of course the new year celebration where Guruji had performed abhishek on his personal deities. At the same time Sathya Narayan Puja was also conducted. Guruji had concluded the prayer with a talk on how one must learn to accept the will of God and that all is for one's own good.

Spinning prayer wheels earns merit. Each bead on a prayer bead necklace represents a mantra. When his finger slides to another bead, this man will move on to another prayer.
