He was the mrdanga teacher at the Mayapura Gurukula from 1982-95 and has been the mrdanga teacher at the Vrndavana Gurukula since 1995. He is a master in the two traditions coming from Srinivasa Acarya and Narottama dasa Thakura. He is teaching students and writing books on Vaisnava music to preserve the Gaudiya Vaisnava style.

Sat-sandarbhas which provides students
with historical background on the life of Jiva Goswami and detailed
knowledge of the structure and contents of his principal theological
ideas, as presented in the
Sat-sandarbhas.
The seminar costs 40 Euros.
We are pleased to announce and invite you to a nama-yajna (chanting of the holy names) with Sacinandana Swami, which will be held on Saturday, May 24th in the Radhadesh temple room. The program starts at 19:00 with Gaura Arati and ends at 22:00.
The License program is unique to Lampeter and is one of
their most long-standing awards. It is also known as a "Graduate
Certificate". This certificate is conferred upon completion of the third
and final year of the undergraduate Bachelor's degree program in Theology.
Entrance into the License program is restricted to persons
who have already completed a bachelor's degree in another discipline. It is
most often used to prepare graduates of another discipline for post-graduate
work in Theology. The License program, however, also provides a unique
opportunity for students to enrich and broaden the skills and knowledge they
have already acquired in their previous undergraduate study. Credits earned in this
program cannot be applied toward a Bachelor's degree.
Krishna Ksetra Prabhu (

Caitanya-caritamrta by
providing a detailed analysis of its historical context, structure, and
content. The module also aims to nurture a reflective approach to the
message and teachings of the text in light of personal and
institutional practice.
The seminar costs 80 Euros.

This academic year, Bhaktivedanta College has twenty-seven students from twenty countries.
Bhaktivedanta College opened in September 2002 and offers a systematic, accredited education leading to a Bachelor of Theology degree.
Experience shows that most of the applicants come from countries with
low incomes. For them, it is difficult and almost impossible to cover
the student fees for tuition and room and board. Therefore we ask you
to kindly consider a scholarship, either full or partial, whatever
amount is within your capacity. Any contribution will be highly
welcomed. Those in need will be grateful to you.
