About This Item
Srila Prabhupada's time at this Vrndavana temple. Includes history of Radha Damodara since the time of the Six Goswamis.
Srila Prabhupada comes in Radha-Damodara
1959 was a momentous year for Srila Prabhupada. He moved into the eternal association of Sri Rupa Goswami and Sri Jiva Goswami at the lotus feet of Sri Sri Radha-Damodara. He formally renounced material life by accepting sannyasa. And in Delhi, be commenced his life’s main work and masterpiece, translating and commenting upon the Srimad Bhagavatam.
In 1972, when Srila Prabhupada told his disciples that this corner at the Radha-Damodara temple was just like the hub of the spiritual world - it was the center; he could have been referring to the fact that the Radha-Damodara temple is situated right in the middle of Seva Kunj. Seva Kunj is the transcendental place where Lord Krishna humbly served Srimati Radharani in order to mollify Her maan (anger) aroused during a conjugal conflict.
Srila Prabhupada’s rooms
Srila Prabhupada cherished his rooms at the Radha-Damodara temple, and he often stressed their importance. From the beginning of ISKCON, Srila Prabhupada allowed his disciples to live in his rooms at Radha-Damodara for two reasons: to maintain possession of the rooms and to give his disciples a chance to receive the transcendental blessings of Sri Rupa Goswami, Sri Jiva Goswami, Sri Vrindavan dham, and Sri Sri Radha-Damodara.
