Have you ever taken part in a Hare Krishna
festival? They are lively and cheerful celebrations with a
fiesta of sound, music, colour, good smells, and activity.
Most of these festivals are based around holy days and traditions
going back thousands of years.
Festivals often require a lot of extra endeavour, financing,
and take us out of our daily routine.
