Wisdom & Devotion: An Evening with a Monk

Join us for a rare and soul-stirring evening as we welcome special guest Damodar Das for a night of profound wisdom and sacred sound.

In the heart of Amsterdam, we invite you to step away from the bustle of daily life. The evening will weave together the meditative power of a Kirtan Journey, and an illuminating Wisdom Session led by Damodar Das.

What is Kirtan? Kirtan is a powerful form of sound meditation. It is a collective, call-and-response chanting of sacred mantras that helps quiet the mind, release stress, and open the heart. No experience is needed—just a willingness to listen and sing.

• Sacred Sound: Immersive Kirtan to settle into the space.
• Timeless Wisdom: Ancient insights for modern life.
• Community Connection: A warm, inclusive gathering over light snacks.

We are honored to host Damodar Das, a dedicated monk, distinguished scholar, and leader within the global Bhakti community. Bringing over two decades of monastic experience, he offers a practical and compassionate perspective on ancient Vedic wisdom.

For more than 20 years, he has held senior leadership roles at ISKCON Chowpatty and the award-winning Govardhan Eco Village. He currently serves as a senior faculty member at the Bhaktivedanta Vidyapitha, the Mayapur Institute, and the Vrindavan Institute, where he teaches advanced courses in Bhakti Vedanta and teacher training.

A mentor to many, Damodar Das travels worldwide to guide and inspire leaders, ensuring spiritual communities thrive through a foundation of deep compassion and support.

Bhakti Space is a community-led initiative in the Netherlands, dedicated to making ancient spiritual wisdom accessible, rational, and deeply practical for modern life.
