Respected & Dear Vaishnavas / Vaishnavis,

 

Hare Krishna…

 

Please Accept My Humble Obeisances Unto Your Holy Feet…

 

All Glories to Sri Guru & Gauranga…

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada…

All Glories to Guruparampara & Vaishnavaparampara…

 

Since about past 08 years, ISKCON Vizag did not get permission on the pretext that construction in heights not permissible as per CRZ norms applicable to coastal zone(whereas there are 10s of Star Hotels across the sea shore).

 

And finally the time has come, Sri Sri Radha Damodara has showered HIS causeless mercy by making the Government to give permission for constructing the long, long awaited ISKCON Vizag Mega Temple Project.

 

Please find the details of temple construction in the enclosed file…

 

Now it is time for us to show our deep & sincere Love, Affection, Duty, Faithfulness, Gratitude & Service to Lord Sri Krishna and to the Mission of Sri Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu under the Captainship of His Divine Grace Abhaya Charan Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada, the Founder Aacharya of ISKCON and his successors – who have dedicated their lives for the cause of spreading Krishna Consciousness to one and all for uplifting and delivering the fallen souls.

 

Vishnu Dharmottara states that “for a person who builds a temple of Sri Vishnu, as many atoms are there in the temple so built, for so many thousands of years will he be able to reside in the heavenly planets”.

 

Srimad Bhagavatam states that “In order to be successful in the human form of life, one must engage his life, wealth, intelligence and speech in the service of the highest humanitarian work of the devotional service of the Lord”.

 

Vamana Purana states that “Whoever constructs or helps to construct a Vishnu temple will attain the eternal Vaikunthaloka and will protect one’s eight generations of fathers, grandfather & forefather from failing into hell.”

 

Therefore, my dear God Brothers & God Sisters, kindly rise up to the occasion, broaden your heart, mind & soul and show to KRISHNA how much you love HIM by donating generously for construction of long awaited Mega Temple at ISKCON Visakhapatnam…

 

Ways to Contribute:-

 

1)      Contribute from your existing savings

2)      Stop spending on purchase of New Clothes A/c. birthdays, festivals this year & stop celebrating Birthdays of your family for one Year and by doing this, I am confident that one can donate at least Rs.50,000/- by savings on this account itself.

3)      If you have regular commitments for donating every year, you can contribute more by preponing your donations of next years to this year – depending on your budget – as donation given for construction of temple will remain forever and ever as long as the temple & its structure remains…

4)      Beg – seek donations from others

5)      Borrow – as we borrow money for children education, children’s marriage, medical treatment, etc., if you consider no savings to donate, you may opt the option to borrow and donate…

6)      Steal – Not banks or from others, but steal the hearts of the people by your preaching on the results of contributing for construction of a temple…

7)      Collect from friends, relatives, neighbors, colleagues.

8)      Spread the message across length & breadth so that donors themselves come forward for the cause…

 

Live Example / Inspiration:-

To set a live example and to be the source of inspiration for one & all, normally every year, I donate about Rupees One Lakh to ISKCON.  This year, though I have already contribute Rupees One Lakh for ISKCON Vizag during Hud Hud Cyclone, after parking money for meeting few commitments, I am left with Rupees Three Lakhs.  I borrowed additional Two Lakhs from my Brother and given Rupees Five Lakhs to ISKCON Vizag yesterday – on the Eve of Sri Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s Birth Anniversary “Gaura Purnima” – the forerunner of Sankirtana Movement, who has taken the GOLDEN AVATAAR to deliver the fallen souls in Kaliyuga by giving us the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra “HARE KRISHNA, HARE KRISHNA, KRISHNA KRISHNA, HARE HARE, HARE RAMA, HARE RAMA, RAMA RAMA HARE HARE” as the only source of getting delivered in this age of Kali.

 

Therefore, my dear God Brothers & God Sisters, kindly come forward, Join the Army of Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu & Srila Prabhupada, let us all contribute together as the tiny monkeys & squirrel contributed for constructing the bridge for reaching Lanka, let us be instrumental in the hands of the Lord and receive HIS ultimate & causeless mercy – if not for getting ourselves delivered, at least to deliver our forefathers and ten generations of past & future.
