Sri Sri Radha Govinda Mandir
Los Angeles , CA
About:
The temple has a long and blood stained past, but like a Pheonix from the ashes, it is now shining like the sun. The temple has 15 Brahmacharis living here full time, and a few ladies here also. The mangala arati has 20 devotees every morning and the last Sunday feast had 70 people. It was ecstatic.
The lazies and crazies have been purged and the new devotees who are here are happy and committed. The temple and kitchen are spotless. The congregation is motivated, and new people are pouring in daily. The disappearance of Srila Gurudeva has caused a deepening of commitment amongst the devotees here, it was a galvanization, and everyone is feeling his mood and mercy. The deities are being nicely taken care of.
The temple had some previous difficulty, and some negative persons have moved on, now everything is progressing nicely. The mood here has never been so positive. There are so many new devotees joining we are running out of space. Prana Govinda Prabhu has really taken the bull by the horns and taken full responsibility for the seva here. We hope that some serious full time brahmacaris can come and help.
Tomorrow we begin the 7 day Bhagavat Saptaha, and we are expecting a lot of interest from the public. I just wanted the sanga in general to know of the turn around here, and maybe some senior devotees want to come here and help out.
