Please Pray for the Safety of Devotees in Israel and Iran Amid Ongoing Conflict: Dear Devotees,
You are likely aware of the intense conflict currently taking place between Israel and Iran. There are many ISKCON Vaishnavas in both countries.
Devotees in Tehran have been evacuated to other cities for their safety. In Tel Aviv, everything is shut down — even public transportation — and devotees are spending a significant amount of time in bomb shelters. So far, we have no reports of any injuries among our devotees, by the mercy of the Lord.
While some news outlets report that the conflict may soon subside, the situation remains volatile and could escalate further.
We humbly request all devotees to offer heartfelt prayers and to increase your kirtans and Krishna-katha. Harinama eva kevalam — only by surcharging the atmosphere with the transcendental sound vibrations of Krishna’s Holy Name and Krishna-katha can there be any true change in the polluted atmosphere of global conflict.
Your servant,
Kavicandra Swami
