The sacred Radha Gokulananda Temple was founded by the esteemed Viswanath Cakravarti, a beacon of devotion and spiritual guidance.

In the serene sanctuary of the Radha Gokulananda Temple, devotees seek blessings from Radha-Vinoda, Vijaya Govinda, Radha Gokulananda, and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, each deity an embodiment of divine love and grace.

What is the significance of the Govardhana-shila in the temple?

Can visitors see the original Deity of Radha-Vinoda?

The Govardhana-shila in the temple is not just a stone, but a divine gift from Lord Chaitanya to Raghunath Dasa Gosvami. It holds the sacred thumbprint of Lord Chaitanya himself, symbolizing his presence and blessings.

While the original Deity of Radha-Vinoda now resides in Jaipur, devotees can still receive darshan from the pratibhu-murtis. These represent the original deities, continuing the legacy of worship and blessings at the temple.
