Build a home for Krishna in Bali

The devotees of Bali are completing a new temple for Their Lordships. Sponsor a part of it from anywhere in the world: a pillar, the altar, the Deity kitchen. Your seva becomes part of the Lord's home for as long as it stands.

Just by starting the construction of a temple for the Lord, sins committed in seven births are wiped out, and one delivers their forefathers suffering in hellish planets. Those who sponsor a temple of Lord Vishnu gain ten million times the merit of yajnas, austerities, charity, pilgrimage and study of the Vedas.

From scaffolding to a palace for the Lord

On the left is the mandir as it stands this month: the structure and shikhara complete, with the front steps and the brick facade under way. On the right is how it will look on opening day.

Your seva carries it the rest of the way: the carved facade, the lit steps, the gardens and, inside, the altar where Sri Sri Radha-Rasesvara will be installed.

Why your gift matters now

The final steps open the doors

The walls, pillars and towers are standing. What remains is what makes a building a temple: the altar, the Deity kitchen, the prasadam hall and the installation. Every gift now goes straight into these final steps.

A blessing for seven births

Scripture says that simply starting the Lord's temple wipes away the sins of seven births and delivers one's forefathers. Sponsoring it brings ten million times the merit of sacrifice, austerity and pilgrimage.

Devotees packed into the current temple hall for kirtan

Our hall overflows

Since 1999 the community has outgrown its small temple. On festival nights devotees stand shoulder to shoulder and spill out the doors.

Families taking darshan of the Deities

Where our children learn

This temple is the spiritual heart of our village. It is where Balinese children learn kirtan, the scriptures and how to serve the Lord.

Ready for the Deities

Scriptural blessings

A rare chance for abundant blessings

Taking part in this project is a rare opportunity. Our sacred scriptures describe the blessings it brings.

“By installing the Deity of the Lord, one becomes king of the entire earth; by building a temple for the Lord, one becomes ruler of the three worlds; by worshiping and serving the Deity, one goes to the planet of Lord Brahma; and by performing all three of these activities one achieves a transcendental form like My own.”

Srimad Bhagavatam 11.27.51–52

“On building a temple of Sri Madhava, one can attain the eternal Vaikunthaloka.”

Vamana Purana

“Whoever constructs or helps to construct a temple will protect eight generations of their ancestors from falling into hell.”

Vamana Purana

“Having acquired wealth and built a temple with a small portion of it, a person acquires piety and gains favour from Hari.”

Agni Purana

“Mortals who help to construct a temple of Lord Vishnu do not return to this world; they return to the abode of Lord Vishnu.”

Padma Purana

“A person who builds a temple of Sri Vishnu gets the same results as performing the Rajasuya and Ashvamedha yajnas. For as many atoms as there are in the temple, for so many thousands of years will he reside in the heavenly planets.”
