"We
are purchasing such big, big houses. Why? Just to give people the opportunity
to hear about Krishna."
As already mentioned, ISKCON currently has more
than three hundred temples, farms, schools, and special projects throughout the
world. At each centre members teach daily classes, perform chanting, and provide
individual instruction on the science of Krishna consciousness. Each centre also
holds a weekly festival and vegetarian feast, as well as programmes on festive
occasions throughout the year. All programmes are open to the public.
ISKCON's Spiritual City in India
The construction of a spiritual city in Mayapur, India, may represent the most ambitious of Shrila Prabhupada's many programmes for the further expansion of Krishna consciousness worldwide. When completed, Mayapur City will be one of the most powerful and attractive features of ISKCON's 21st century presentation of Vedic culture.
The project, already well under construction, will include restaurants, guesthouses, permanent residences, several fully interactive theme parks, and a special memorial cathedral in honour of Shrila Prabhupada. It will also include the "Temple of the Vedic Planetarium" and much more.
