ISKCON’s first full stone temple

With traditional architecture- pillars and stone carvings, ISKCON Salem’s granite temple promises its name in history for centuries.

We have learned from Srila Prabhupada that Krsna advises Arjuna in Bhagavad-Gita – kuru karmaiva tasmat tvam purvaih purvataram krtam. * There could be no better way of doing things than that of our predecessors in the Vedic times. This is what ISKCON Salem intents to do by making a first full stone temple with a longevity of 1000 years. Main temple building employs the pristine knowledge of construction, which uses just stones without any iron and the temple compound stretches over an area of 4.5 acres.
