Below is the proposal and organizational progress:
Program will be in Spanish from 9AM to 11AM, Saturday, December 20th, live at Hampton Inn, Murfreesboro, Tennessee, USA; and online at address to be announced.
1. Kirtana and Words of Welcome (10 min)
Dear devotees and well-wishers from Spain, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Peru, and other parts of the world:
Welcome to this celebration of the auspicious 78th Vyasa-puja of our beloved spiritual master. Following his instructions, today we dedicate this time to glorifying the Guru-parampara and, within that sacred context, the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan and Srila Prabhupada.
The Srimad-Bhagavatam 4.29.36–37 states:
“The real interest of the living entity lies in freeing oneself from the ignorance that forces one to undergo repeated birth and death. The only remedy is to surrender to the Supreme Personality of Godhead through His representative.”
It is that faithful representative—the Guru—and the disciplic succession, through whom the Supreme Personality of Godhead manifests, whom we aspire to glorify today.
2. Glorification of the Guru-parampara (10 min)
Country in charge: Chile / Coordinator: Mother Priyasaki
“We now offer our humble obeisances to the entire line of spiritual masters who have made it possible for spiritual knowledge and devotional service to reach us.
We will share a musical piece based on the first verse of the Sri Gurvastakam, composed by Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura: samsara-davanala-lidha-loka…
The segment will conclude with a brief reflection.
Note: Mother Priyasaki is coordinating this service with Lalita Madhava Prabhu.
3. Glorification of the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan and the Appearance of Sri Locana Dasa Thakura
Glorification of the Six Goswamis (8 min)
Country in charge: Argentina / Coordinator: Mother Citra-gopi

lokanam hita-karinau tri-bhuvane manyau saran-yakarau
radha-krsna-padaravinda-bhajananandena mattalikau
vande rupa-sanatanu raghu-yugau sri-jiva-gopalakau
A brief reflection will follow.
Appearance of Sri Locana Dasa Thakura (7 min)

Today, in addition to glorifying the Vyasa-puja of our spiritual master—and through him, the entire Guru-parampara—we also honor a most auspicious event: the appearance of Sri Locana Dasa Thakura.
Srila Prabhupada explains in the Caitanya-caritamrta: "‘Locana Dasa Thakura describes the unlimited compassion bestowed upon the fallen souls by Sri Caitanya and Sri Nityananda."
Devotional song and brief reflection led by prabhu Jayanta.

Country in charge: Mexico / Coordinator: Mother Asta-saki
• Short reading from the Prabhupada-lilamrta (5 min)
• Brief reflection: “Srila Prabhupada wrote, ‘My only qualification is that I have tried to follow the orders of my Guru Maharaja." This is our aspiration today: to follow his instructions without deviation.”
5. Glorification of Srila Gurudeva’s Sankirtana Efforts (10 min)
Country in charge: Peru / Coordinator: Abhirama Thakura Dasa
• Presentation of a 6-minute video featuring academic sankirtana programs conducted by NIOS and Hanumatpresaka Swami, offered to Srila Prabhupada and the entire Parampara.
