Daar werd vervolgens in een volle zaal de hele middag gezongen ter ere van Krishna. Er werden tv-opnames gemaakt door Villa Achterwerk van de VPRO. En het Brabants Dagblad deed verslag. Maandag stond de onderstaande artikel op de voorpagina van de krant: Verderop in de krant een uitgebreid verslag, waarvan we de tekst hieronder mogen publiceren. De krant had ook mooie foto's gemaakt, die vanwege copyrights helaas niet op deze blog mogen. Het filmpje en de foto hierover zijn van mede-toegewijden. Een enkel feit in onderstaand artikel klopt niet helemaal (de "god in een perkje van plastic bloemetjes" is in werkelijkheid  Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada ), maar het artikel van journalist Joop van der Pol is geschreve...

Uddhava-Gita discourse in the Vaikuntha atmosphere of Iskcon Ujjain by: Ramananda Raya, Belgium Two times before I had visited Iskcon Ujjain. The progress on so many levels is simply amazing. In 2008 when I first entered the new temple I had immediately experienced the Vaikuntha atmosphere: the temple is always open, all classes and programs are given with open doors, people can always walk in at any time of the day and they do with tens and hundreds at a time.
