Dolai Tour USA 2012 - Initial Announcement and Interest Survey
Sri Brahmatantra Swatantra Parakala Mutt, Mysore and Sri Parakala Matham (USA) are happy to announce that, similar to last year, we are planning to arrange a Dolai tour of Sri Lakshmi Hayagreeva through the USA in the summer and fall months of this year. This year we are planning to add the states of California and Teaxas subject to receiving favorable response from the devotee community. The Tour is scheduled to begin on July 22 and end around December 10. We have prepared a tentative schedule based on last year's experience. (See Dolai Tour 2011 details from the link Dolai Tour USA 2011 on the menu bar.
During this year's Tour, you may sponsor an event like Tirumanjanam or Dolai at your home. Tirumanjanams are performed in the morning (approximately a 4 - 4 1/2 hour function) and Dolais are performed in the evenings on week days and additionally in the afternoons on weekends and holidays (approximately a 2 hour function). Suggested sponsorship fees are $500 for Tirumanjanms and $250 forDolais. Functions can also be arranged at area temples and other public venues.
Please take a look at the schedule below.. If you are interested in sponsoring an event, kindly return our very brief on-line questionnaire by going to the site http://freeonlinesurveys.com/app/rendersurvey.asp?sid=1sbe8uh82nbydjl13025 . It involves checking just a few boxes and will take you only a couple of minutes to complete this questionnaire. PLEASE RESPOND ASAP SINCE THE ON-LINE SURVEY SITE WILL CLOSE ON MARCH 14. We will try to accommodate your preferences to the best extent possible subject to availability of openings and constraints on scheduling.
Note: We are also considering an alternate extended tour schedule for California and Texas, subject to sponsor interest and the availability of ArAdhakar. This is included the bottom of the main schedule below and also in the questionnaire.
