点评:For the Harry Potter fans (Potterheads?), Watford is home to the very popular tourist attraction - the Warner Brothers Studio. For spiritual seekers, the big draw is Bhaktivedanata Manor (krishnatemple.com), also the Europe headquarters for ISKCON. The manor is a spiritual sanctuary spread over 78 acres of land with gardens, an organic farm, a protected herd of cows, a temple, a monastery and a community of spiritual seekers. Some readers may know that back in 1973, George Harrison of the Beatles (also a devotee) donated this estate to the founder of the ISKCON movement, Srila Prabhupada. I don’t have much to report back – this was a day of soul searching, of meditation and prayer, but will share a few beautiful photographs from our visit. We spent a blissful night here before heading to London.
翻译:对于哈利·波特迷(哈利·波特迷?)来说,沃特福德是热门旅游景点——华纳兄弟工作室的所在地。对于精神追求者来说,最大的吸引力在于巴克提维达纳塔庄园(krishnatemple.com),它也是益世康(ISKCON)的欧洲总部。这座庄园是一座精神圣殿,占地78英亩,拥有花园、有机农场、受保护的牛群、寺庙、修道院和一个精神追求者社群。一些读者可能知道,早在1973年,披头士乐队成员乔治·哈里森(也是一位信徒)就将这处庄园捐赠给了益世康运动的创始人圣帕布帕德。我没有太多可分享的——这是一次灵魂探索、冥想和祈祷的一天,但我会分享一些我们参观时拍摄的精美照片。在前往伦敦之前,我们在这里度过了一个幸福的夜晚。
