Jayapataka Swami: It is not a simple question. I should think about it, and I will give the suggestions in the following classes. This also was decided in the South Indian Divisional Council (SIDC), that the suggestion was that we should observe the Janmāṣṭamī virtually. But they rightly pointed out that the Jhulan-yātrā, Balarāma appearance day, Janmāṣṭamī, Śrīla Prabhupāda appearance day –Vyāsa-pūjā, all these things fall one after another. In Māyāpur, usually between Balarāma Pūrṇimā and Janmāṣṭamī, we observe 7 days of Śrīla Prabhupāda appearance. And each day, a different āśrama like the gṛhasthas one day, the brahmacārīs another day, schools one day,so that should be planned out. So, you should also have your virtual meeting and discuss how to observe all these festivals.
