About Sri Gokul Gaushala
A Sacred Beginning
Serving cows & community
Sri Gokul Gaushala ISKCON is set upon four acres of prime land and is situated a short distance from Birbalpura on the Fatehgarh Churian Road, Amritsar.
The presiding Deities at the temple are Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai. The Deities were personally installed by His Holiness Nava Yogendra Swami Ji Maharaj, who is Senior Master Disciple of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
In 2017, this land was acquired by ISKCON Amritsar and construction started towards the end of 2018. On the auspicious occasion of Sri Radha Ashtami 2019, the first time devotees arrived at Gaushala.
The project has continued to develop as a spiritual community, with the temple, Gaushala and Vedic education facilities growing together as a place of devotional service and spiritual learning.
Our Purpose
OurMissions
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada began the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) in New York City in 1966 with the following main purposes.
To systematically propagate spiritual knowledge to society at large and to educate all people in the techniques of spiritual life in order to check the imbalance of values in life and to achieve real unity and peace in the world.
To propagate a consciousness of Krishna (God), as it is revealed in the great scriptures of India, Bhagavad-gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam.
To bring the members of the Society together with each other and nearer to Krishna, the prime entity, thus developing the idea within the members, and humanity at large, that each soul is part and parcel of the quality of Godhead (Krishna).
To teach and encourage the sankirtana movement, congregational chanting of the holy name of God, as revealed in the teachings of Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
To erect for the members and for society at large a holy place of transcendental pastimes dedicated to the personality of Krishna.
To bring the members closer together for the purpose of teaching a simpler, natural way of life.
With a view towards achieving the aforementioned purposes, to publish and distribute periodicals, magazines, books and other writings.
