PÁINCAJANYA

At five o'clock every morning, sa'dhakas [spiritual aspirants] will assemble at a ja'grti*, and where there is no ja'grti, at a fixed convenient place, and participate in singing five minutes of Prabha'ta Sam'giita, in performing fifteen minutes of kiirtana, and lastly in performing ten minutes of collective meditation.

This should be the practice on all days of the week except Sundays.
On Sundays, there should be singing of ten minutes of Prabha'ta Sam'giita, performance of fifteen minutes of kiirtana, and performance of at least ten minutes of collective meditation. This programme is known as pa'incajanya.

* Literally, "place for awakening"; a spiritual centre.
