Testimonials

The VIHE is like a big churning pot, churning the nectar of the holy name, places and pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the association of advanced devotees from all over the world. Since devotees are like honey bees they should immediately take advantage and go for that sweetest honey in Vrndavana......

For years I had lost the sharp edge of one-pointed intelligence which in the beginning had given me much realization and taste.... This course has sharpened my focus....A powerful uplifting spiritual experience. I think many older devotees can benefit by getting a concentrated dose of Krsna consciousness, and younger devotees can dive deeply into the philosophy and practices of Krsna consciousness.

I can honestly say this is the most enlightening and inspiring month I've spent in ISKCON in ten years! I've learned much from the individual classes, and beyond that I've acquired a real taste for hearing and chanting in the association of devotees... The institute is well-planned and the arrangements are first class. Worth every penny of the tuition.

This studying in the association of devotees has been the most enlivening experience in my Krsna conscious career. Following the techniques taught at the VIHE, I have gained an inspiration to study Srila Prabhupada's books with a determination that I never knew existed in me.

I had a wonderful experience living in the holy Dham and studying Srila Prabhupada?s books with the guide of such wonderful teachers and students. I think it's been the best thing I did in my life. I recharged my batteries for quite some time and now I am trying to give to others what I took from them all.

Promoting the careful study of Prabhupada's books, diving deeper into Vedic understanding, providing an atmosphere for our ISKCON members both old and new to associate together on the basis of hearing and chanting, etc...These VIHE achievements are most valuable for the whole world.
