Welcome to ISKCON Kurukshetra
FOUNDER ACHARYA
In 1965, at the age of 69, when ordinary persons are thinking of retirement, he went to the United States to fulfill the mission of his spiritual master and founded ISKCON.
He brought to the West the divine teachings of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu who taught the public glorification of Hare Krishna mantra. Srila Prabhupada , (as he was affectionately called by his followers), taught on a non-sectarian level that every living being is an eternal servant of Lord Krishna with a dormant natural propensity to experience the eternal bliss of pure love of God.

The Krishna-Arjuna temple will be constructed on a holy spot, the place where the war between Kauravas and Pandavas took place, and the place where Lord Krishna delivered the holy Bhagavad Gita to his disciple and friend, Arjuna. Since the place holds great significance, establishing a temple here will help spread Krishna Consciousness all over the world.
With the blessings of HH Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj & under the leadership of HG Priya Govind Prabhu & HG Sakshi Gopal Prabhu, the temple construction is in full pace but still awaiting your participation.
Everyone expressed enthusiasm about the place, which they sensed as spiritually vibrant. Deep, timeless wisdom and serenity seemed to permeate the atmosphere. Srila Prabhupada told the devotees that ISKCON should build a temple of Krsna and Arjuna there.<br>
