Why to visit ISKCON Temple Bhubaneswar
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) established this temple in 1991 as a substitute for Lord Jagannath Temple in Puri, which is only open to Indians. Lord Krishna, Balarama, Gaura Nithai, Subhadra, and Jagannatha are all housed there. The temple is dedicated to spreading spiritual discernment and spiritual growth skills to the general public, and it is based on India's main scriptures, the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam.
The temple, which is made of white stone, resembles a half-opened or flowering lotus. The temple hosts kirtans, bhajans, and poojas on a regular basis to promote the ISKCON movement's philosophy. Sankirtana, or collective reciting of God's holy name, is also promoted at the temple. At the temple, many Vaishnav festivals are held on a regular basis.
In Bhubaneshwar, the ISKCON movement is highly popular. For worshippers of Krishna and Radha, the global emblem of love, a new Radha Krishna temple has been built nearby.
