The temple as a place of care.
A temple is not only a sanctum. It is a kitchen, a refuge, a school, a shelter for cows. Service is worship.
The food offering
The Annadaan Kshetra will serve hot meals daily — first to the temple's offerings, then to anyone who comes hungry. In the tradition of Guruvayur, no devotee leaves the precinct unfed.
Sponsor the Annadaan KshetraThe cow shelter
Krishna's cows. The Gaushala is part of the temple's promise — the herd cared for daily, the ghee for the lamps and the nivedyam drawn from cows of the temple's own keeping.
Sponsor the GaushalaA roof for the unhoused devotee
For Vrindavan's widows and elderly women who have given their lives to devotion and now have no shelter. The temple commits to housing and caring for them in their later years.
