Lord Krishna’s departure from this world is a topic steeped in the rich tapestry of Hindu mythology and scriptures. According to ancient texts such as the Mahabharata and Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu, incarnated on Earth to fulfill divine purposes.

The narrative of Lord Krishna’s demise is both profound and symbolic. As per the Mahabharata, it was a hunter named Jara who mistakenly shot an arrow at Lord Krishna’s foot, mistaking it for a deer. This event, while tragic, symbolizes the concept of divine lila, or pastimes, where even the death of the Supreme Lord serves a higher purpose beyond mortal comprehension.

However, it’s important to note that in the spiritual realm, Lord Krishna is eternal and beyond birth and death. His presence continues to resonate in the hearts of millions through the practice of Krishna consciousness.

ISKCON Newtown stands as a beacon of devotion and spiritual enlightenment, dedicated to spreading the teachings of Lord Krishna and fostering Krishna consciousness among devotees. ISKCON temples, or mandirs, serve as sanctuaries where devotees can immerse themselves in the divine presence of Radhe Krishna.

One of the significant events celebrated in ISKCON and across the Vaishnava tradition is Guru Purnima. This auspicious occasion pays homage to spiritual gurus, including Srila Prabhupada, the founder-acharya of ISKCON, who tirelessly propagated the teachings of Lord Krishna worldwide. Guru Purnima is a time for devotees to express gratitude to their spiritual guides and recommit themselves to the path of bhakti, or devotion.

In addition to spiritual practices, ISKCON Newtown also engages in various philanthropic endeavors to serve society. One such initiative is the e-Hundi Seva, which allows devotees to contribute to the temple’s charitable activities through online donations. By supporting e-Hundi Seva, devotees can actively participate in spreading the message of love and compassion advocated by Lord Krishna.

Your generous contributions to ISKCON Newtown enable the temple to continue its noble mission of propagating Krishna consciousness and serving humanity. As Lord Krishna himself states in the Bhagavad Gita, “Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you offer or give away, and whatever austerities you perform—do that, O son of Kunti, as an offering to Me.”

Join us in honoring the legacy of Radhe Krishna, supporting ISKCON Newtown’s initiatives, and experiencing the transformative power of divine love and devotion.
