New Goloka Information

From humble beginnings of Sunday feast programs around a campfire, to a full-fledged temple, New Goloka has steadily grown and become the most active temple in North Carolina. For over 25 years we have been offering diverse services to a large community:Deity Seva: High standard of worship of Sri Sri Radha Golokananda with five aratiks starting at 4:30am and five opulent bhoga offerings everyday based on authorized scriptures like the Narada Pancharatrika. Festivals: Our celebrations have become very popular, serving over 3000 people on festivals like Janmashtami, Diwali, Govardhan Puja, Gaura Purnima, Holi, etc. with special abhisheks, kirtans, discourses, dances, dramas, and more. Sunday Programs: Every Sunday around 100 people participate in ecstatic kirtans, aratika, enlightening classes on authorized Vedic books and an opulent prasadam feast. We also conduct special educational programs for children. Outreach: We are committed to share the wealth of Vedic knowledge and culture to enlighten people by distributing authorized scriptures. In 2012, we distributed over 5500 transcendental spiritual literatures to universities, hospitals, motels, etc. and aim to double the number in 2013. The temple serves many thousands of families from southern Virginia to northern South Carolina. To expand our services, Lord Krishna is providing all of us an opportunity to develop a much bigger VEDIC Cultural and Educational Center.
