Dainty Doilies.

Someone made these wall-decorations for Gaura-Purnima out of cake doilies. Maybe not quite in the same class as William Morris whose influence can be seen in the architecture of the temple building! But pretty anyway; and the texts compliment the spirit of Lord Chaitanya's festival.


vijayata sri-krishna-sankirtanam. "All glories to the sankirtan movement; the congregational chanting of Krishna's sacred names." - Sri Siksastakam 1.


The holy name of Krishna is the highest nectar. It is my very life and my only treasure. - Srila Sanatana Goswami; Brhad-Bhagavatamrita.


"The treasure of love of God has descended from the spiritual world to Earth, as the congregational chanting of Krishna's names." - Srila Narottama das Thakura.
