Saturday, March 3 all of us here in the house celebrated Holi, the yearly festival of colors and for us the celebration of the birthday of Sri Chaitanya, the founder of the Vaishnava lineages (Hari Krishna's for those who know that one). In the house we prepared for a short ceremony, offerings, and meditations, and then went to play colors!

What does that mean? you take different colored powders and throw them on each other! FUN! We decided to keep it red and herbal but we certainly had some fun.

Look out!
