The Krsna-Balarama Mela is an annual gathering of Youth from across the country and parts of the world. We come together to share the unique experience of the Mela which provides enrichment from both a material and spiritual perspective – material through fun and games, yet spiritual as every activity is aimed at enhancing ones Krishna consciousness. The Mela is a time to allow individuals an opportunity to reflect upon the year that has past and is an avenue to project true experiences.
Bill Gates said “The only way one may grow to achieve their goal, is through knowing their true current position.” KB Mela creates a healthy and vibrant atmosphere allowing the attendees to express themselves in new and creative ways.
The life line of the Mela is Harinama Sankirtan and Sadhu Sanga (devotee association). Each year the Mela hosts the best of Kirtaniya’s from across the globe by bringing them to South African shores and allowing our attendees an opportunity to intermingle, learn from and share with the in artists in a life changing experience.
Understanding that everyone aspires to travel to Vrindavan and Mayapur Dham to experience great Kirtan and devotee association, KB Mela 2011 will offer you the greatest Kirtaniya’s from Mayapur and Vrindavan in the form of Keshav Das, Amala Purana Das, and Akincana Krishna Das accompanied by the ever energetic Mayapuris (Visvambar, Krishna Kishore, Bali, Vrinda and Dhania). Imagine the sheer awesomeness of being able to have your best friends and family alongside you as we share blissful Kirtan and the past times of the Lord with the beautiful back drop of the Drakensberg Mountains…
Alpine Heath, one of the most recognised and reputable establishments in the Drakensburg area, is the Venue for 2011. The location offers luxurious 4 Star accommodations allowing up to 6 persons per chalet. There are exciting team building activities and workshops that have been prepared as well as beautiful scenic trails for Japa walks, for your enjoyment.
This year the Mela focuses on the blend of local and international talent and building on the relations formed over the past years. Yes, the Mela is structured for the Youth of ISKCON, although each year we have had an increasing number of senior devotees and families joining in the wonderful getaway experience. We welcome one and all to join us as we believe Youth is a state of mind and not age. J
The number of attendees this year is limited to 175 due to the capacity of the Venue. We would love each and every one of you to be a part of this festival as it is prepared and structured for your pleasure. Due to this limited number, the bookings will be handled on a first come first serve basis.
Book off the dates 8 – 11 December 2011, save your cash, and start preparing for ISKCON KB MELA 2011.
