From Jun. 2019 onwards the operational costs will be covered by the annual Vyasa-puja festival funds. The online shop sales, and revenue, will exclusively be used to promote and invest in available and future media. Last but certainly not least most older media is offered free of charge on our revamped media page.
If you are looking for music, ebooks (epub, kindle) or digital media by Kadamba Kanana you can find those in the online shop. If you still like to support KKSBlog with a financial donation please click here (paypal).
