At times when people are quite busy with their life, taking out spiritual time is very rare. I have seen people running a very fast paced life in big cities. But the lifestyle is completelly different in smaller towns and cities. Thanks to different temples, parks and religious spot where people like to spend their evening hours quietly. Recently, I went to one such ISKCON temple and experience serene peace and lively atmosphere.

ISKCON temples, or International Society for Krishna Consciousness temples, are sacred places that serve as centers of education, preaching, and cultural activities. Some say that visiting an ISKCON temple can help you explore your inner self and spirituality. I felt the same, when I visited the ISCKON temple in my area. It was not huge at other places, yet it was very appealing and captivating.

The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), known colloquially as the Hare Krishna movement, is a Gaudiya Vaishnava Hindu religious organization. It was founded on 13 July 1966 in New York City by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. - Wikipedia.
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) is a popular organization that has spread the message of Sanatana Dharma across the world. ISKCON's success is due to its public engagement and distribution of literature.

We have many temples built around the world. In India, one can fund the temple in almost every state or city. The society is engage in worshipping Radha-Krishna. Some say visiting an ISKCON temple can be a good experience and a great place to learn about Indian culture and traditions. Some say this temple is a hallmark of temples that use modern technology to promote ancient Indian culture. Others say it's a good place to visit with the whole family, and that it's a must for tourists. The temple also has a cafeteria and shopping counters at many places. In my case, I was greeted with big green lawn where many families were assembled in evening.





ISKCON devotees, also known as Hare Krishnas, are highly visible in their signature clothing and chant the name of Krishna in public places like airports, parks, and university campuses. They also promote Krishna consciousness through festivals, yoga seminars, and the performing arts. However , at this place, I saw people enjoying their time with loved. Children, families and friends were talking , playing and sitting in relax mode in the green area.
Temples are sacred spaces where people can connect with the divine through prayer, meditation, and other forms of worship. Visiting such places always gives a sense of Devine experince.
