It was in 2001 when I went to Sridham Mayapur last time, which was 3 years before the Panca Tattva deities have been installed in 2004. In 2004 Aindra Prabhu also came to Mayapur for the first time and then went there every year through 2009 to do Kirtan during Gaurapurnima festival.
It was only last year that Martanda Prabhu announced that there will be another 24 Hour Kirtan Mandali in Sridham Mayapur, so it seems that Mahaprabhu liked Aindra Prabhu’s Kirtan so much that his disciples are now bringing the sweet Vrindavan Kirtan to Mayapur, too.
I just came accross this wonderful video footage of the 2014 Pancha Tattva Abhiseka, i.e. 10 years after their installation. The visuals of the deities are really stunning, although I would have preferred an audio track with the original Kirtans conducted during the Abhishek ceremony instead of the modern style Kirtan. You can still see some of the Kirtaniyas in between the Abhiseka.
