The first floor will have a spacious temple hall for more than 300 devotees to congregate and a beautiful altar for the presiding deities their lordships Parama karuna Sri Sri Nitai Gaurachandra.

The 2nd floor will house Conference room, Vedic library, deluxe guest rooms, a Brahmachari Ashram & student's dormitory.


The structure will be 140 by 36 feet, making it the tallest temple structure in whole of Guyana and also tallest iskcon center in all of South America.

Since there is a great decline in morality and God consciousness in the population at large, the mission of the center would be to assist all Guyanese in their spiritual training cum development and to enhance the society through the promotion of spiritual education, high moral values and strong personal development.

The temple will provide free access to all Vedic literatures, free access to a wide variety of academic resources; provide facilities where religious conferences and meetings can be held, present the rich Vedic heritage of ancient India, and much more.

The dormitory facilities on top floor will be for students who wish to be trained in practice of meditation and God consciousness while pursuing or continuing their University studies at the University of Guyana.

In a nutshell, the vision is the create a complete Vedic cultural and spiritual house under one roof with workshops, philosophy, lectures, chanting, yoga, meditation, art, music, cuisine, ancient spiritual traditions, personality development, character building, counseling and most of all God consciousness.

Please join us in these mega celebrations and help us make it a Grandsuccess.
