Sanatan spiritual speakers Dinbandhu Pokharel has made a special visit from Nepal to deliver a sermon based on the Bhagavad Gita and Buddha’s teachings at the festival. The program includes daily bhajans and kirtans, along with spiritual sermons, which are expected to unite the Nepali community here religiously and spiritually.
According to the organizers, once the construction of ‘Nepal Ghar’ is completed, it will develop into a common religious and cultural center for Nepalis living in Spain. It is also believed that such programs in the future will further contribute to the preservation of Nepali identity and culture.
