ISKCON as an organization has more than 400 temples worldwide. ISKCON of Central New Jersey (Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple & Cultural Center) has been serving the central NJ community since 2004.
We are involved in conducting regular community programs and Bhakti-Yoga festivals, youth development programs (including at Rutgers University), systematic presentation and application of Bhagavad-Gita in personal life, and many more!
ISKCON of Central New Jersey shares the message of Gaudiya-Vaishnavasampradāya with the community of Central New Jersey. Philosophically, it is based on the Sanskrit texts Bhagavad-gītā and the Bhagavat Purana, or Srimad Bhagavatam. These are the historic texts of the devotional bhakti yoga tradition, which teaches that the ultimate goal for all living beings is to reawaken their love for God, or Lord Krishna, the “all-attractive one”.
The Sunday Festival, Science of Bhakti-Yoga, Krishna Kids Program, Dramas, Dance, Pure Vegetarian Cuisine, Samskaras, Home Gatherings, and Japa Conference are just some of services offered by us.
We aim to make the new temple facility offer a spiritual university for systematic study of Bhakti-Yoga, an educational institution to encourage spiritual and moral values for children and youth, a yoga center to share the art of mantra meditation, and much more!
Our recently acquired temple at 1020 W. 7th Street, Plainfield, NJ 07063 opens its arms to everybody.
