The long awaited time has come…the glorious Prem Mandir will be
inaugurated in Vrindaban, India on February 15-17, 2012. Read all
posts about Prem Mandir and the Inauguration here.

The festivities will include kalash yatra with Yamuna jal (water),
which will cleanse and sanctify the temple. Thousands of devotees from
around the world are expected to participate in the yatra. Vedic havan
(fire ceremonies) and rituals will be held, and the pran prathistha
(instilling life into the Deities) will be personally performed by
Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, founder of Jagadguru Kripalu
Parishat and Prem Mandir. Radha Krishn deities will reside on the
ground floor, and Sita Ram will Grace the shrine on the first floor.
Every evening, the famous Ras Mandalis of Vrindaban will enact Braj
leelas.

Many years in the making, this temple is unique in Vrindaban.
Elegantly carved of white Italian marble, the temple depicts 84 scenes
of Radha Krishn leelas carved into the temple’s outer walls. Stepping
inside the magnificent temple, one can view the philosophy of bhakti
yog, as revealed by Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, inlaid in the
ornate walls with semi-precious stones. Kripalu Trayodashi, the famous
concise overview of all of the philosophy of Hindu dharm in only 13
verses, composed by Kripaluji Maharaj, is displayed just next to the
shrine. Historical Saints and the Jagadgurus of India are prominently
displayed on both levels.

Prem Mandir is situated on a 50-acre site on the outskirts of the holy
city of Vrindaban (Braj District, U.P. India). The surrounding area is
being developed as a place of pilgrimage for visitors from around the
world. Here, one can participate in the satsang and take the spiritual
benefit of the Divine teachings emanating from this important
spiritual center, which will be a Divine nucleus in Vrindaban.

When completed, the center will include a fully charitable hospital, a
10,000-seat satsang bhavan (hall) – one of the largest in India –
dining and living facilities. The multi-media shops will offer
beautiful kirtans, philosophical books, stunning photos of Radha
Krishn and other devotional material for sale. A museum depicting
India’s antiquity and the history of the creation of the brahmand is
also planned.

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat (JKP) was founded by Jagadguru Shree
Kripaluji Maharaj, our beloved Shree Maharajji, the fifth prime
Jagadguru in the last 5000 years.

Founded in 1990, Radha Madhav Dham Temple and ashram serves as the
national center of Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat in the United States and
is one of the largest Hindu Temples in North America.
