A New Temple For Sri Sri Radha-Radhakanta / Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai / Srila Prabhupada

Lord Krishna has sent a devotee to build Him a temple on top of the hill. Yes, I mentioned it very briefly in our 2020 report. Now it is happening!

This is our first official announcement.

Please read a little data about it on this auspicious Aksaya Tritiya day. Seed money, $500,000 was anonymously contributed for this purpose on December 31, 2020.

Planning has been going on. Here is a summary:

Concert walls with a heavy metal roof. It is approximately 6000 square feet and will include a small office, store, shoe room, bathrooms including a private one for pujaries.

The kirtan hall is around 2400 square feet and the pujari room 1800. There is a kitchen and flower room each an estimated 400 square feet. The foyer and lobby constitute a thousand square feet. . A Garuda stamba will be in front of the temple and there will be a circumambulation path with an awning overhead. It will be situated on spacious landscaped grounds. Below I will break down the
different spaces with estimated costs.

The actual cost may be higher but if necessary it can be reduced. Please check it out and pray for this project’s success!

Thank you,

Your Servant,

Yogindravandana das
