The New Temple

The New Temple

Building the spiritual heart of New Madhuvan — a new home for Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Krishna, for daily worship, festivals, kīrtan, spiritual education and community life for generations to come.

Vision for the new temple at New Madhuvan

The new temple will stand at the heart of the Vrajaloka eco-village — within the same 60-decare sanctuary that holds the goshala, the gardens and the future community homes. Temple, village and land will grow as one continuous offering to Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Krishna.

Why now

Why a larger temple

The current temple room, though intimate and dear to everyone, is quickly becoming too small for the growing community — for daily ārati, Sunday Feasts and the great Vaiṣṇava festivals that draw devotees and guests from across the region.

The new temple will be built with natural stone, timber and lime plaster, in a style that draws from both Vedic and local Bulgarian architectural traditions — beautiful, quiet, and made to last for generations.

Anyone who builds a temple for Krishna is freed from all sinful reactions and gradually returns back home, back to Godhead.

Current status

Where the project stands today

The new temple is in its early planning phase. Site preparation, architectural design and initial consultations are ongoing. Budget, timeline and opening date will be published on this page only once they are officially confirmed by the community — we do not publish numbers or dates that are not yet decided.
