ISKCON Educational Services
Educational Services has continued to flourish. Can you believe 25,000 children visit the Manor every year? Children of all ages learn about our religion, how to meditate, storytelling captures the attention of all and together with dressing up in costumes and masks, and the most attractive mock wedding ceremony, two children pretend to get married in a traditional Vedic wedding. There is a bullock cart ride and a visit to see our cows. And for many children it’s their first introduction to a vegetarian meal, mild curd curry and chips, they love it.
Here are some excerpts from pupils’ and teachers’ letters.
