First Step Towards Vedic Planetarium’s Inauguration

The Iskcon will throw open on Thursday the world’s largest pujari seva on a single-floor facility spread over 2.5 acres at the Temple of the Vedic Planetarium at Mayapur in Nadia.

Devotees from over 77 countries are expected to attend the inaugural ceremony that will also mark the countdown to the opening of the Vedic planetarium, the Iskcon’s flagship Rs 700-crore project slated to be completed in March 2022.

“This is going to be the largest floor for worship and other seva facilities in the world,” Iskcon spokesperson Subroto Das said.

The huge floor of the “seva facilities” is fitted with over 20 specially-designed rooms for worship, cooking prasad, stitching deities’ attire, training priests from across the world and rendering several other seva services.
