Serve the Lord - Be Blessed by Divine Seva Opportunities
At Hare Krishna Golden Temple, every act of service becomes an offering of love to the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna. The temple stands as a beacon of devotion, compassion, and spiritual upliftment - where daily worship, prasadam distribution, and devotional festivals unite hearts in bhakti. Through your generous contributions, you help sustain these sacred activities that spread divine happiness to thousands of souls. Participating in seva is not merely a donation — it is a direct service to the Lord and an opportunity to receive His causeless mercy.
We humbly invite you to take part in these divine sevas and be blessed by the Lord’s grace.
Annadanam
Offer the Gift of Divine Nourishment
In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna declares “annād bhavanti bhūtāni” — all beings are sustained by food. Through Annadana Seva, you help distribute sanctified prasadam to devotees, visitors, and the needy. Every morsel offered becomes spiritualized by the Lord’s mercy. By participating in this seva, you share the Lord’s compassion with countless souls and invite prosperity and peace into your own life.
Gau Seva
Serve and Protect the Mother of Dharma
The cow is revered as “Go Mata”, the mother who nourishes humanity and pleases Lord Krishna. Through Gau Seva, your contribution ensures daily feeding, medical care, and comfortable shelter for the cows of the temple goshala. Serving the cow pleases Goddess Lakshmi and invites auspiciousness into your home. As the scriptures declare, “Go-brahmana-hitaya cha” — Lord Krishna is eternally pleased by those who care for cows and devotees.
Vaisnava Bhojana Seva
Honor the Devotees of the Lord
Feeding the devotees of the Lord is one of the most sacred services. The Lord is most pleased when His servants are served with love. Through Vaisnava Bhojana Seva, you can offer prasadam meals to visiting devotees, brahmacharis, and spiritual guests of the temple. Such service purifies the heart, destroys sins, and attracts Krishna’s mercy — for the devotee is even more dear to Him than Himself.
Sri Narasimha Homa
Seva for Divine Protection and Purity
Invoke the powerful blessings of Lord Narasimha, the protector of bhakti and destroyer of negativity. The Narasimha Homa is performed by temple priests with sacred mantras and offerings for protection, peace, and spiritual strength. By sponsoring this homa, you invite divine protection for your family, remove obstacles on your spiritual path, and experience the Lord’s ferocious yet compassionate grace.
Festival Sevas
Joy offering countless ways to serve the Lord
Throughout the year, Hare Krishna Golden Temple celebrates divine festivals such as Janmashtami, Radhashtami, Gaura Purnima, Diwali, Kartika Deepotsava, and many others. Each festival is filled with devotion, music, lights, and joy — offering countless ways to serve the Lord. You can take part by sponsoring flower decorations, abhisheka, alankara, prasadam distribution, lamps, or utsava arrangements. Every festival seva is a rare opportunity to personally assist in the Lord’s celebration and receive boundless spiritual merit.
Other Sevas
Eternal Opportunities to Please the Lord
Beyond these main sevas, there are many other opportunities such as Deity alankara seva, tulasi archana, temple maintenance, arati sponsorships, vastra dana, and more. Every contribution — big or small — helps maintain the daily worship and service of the Lord. Your seva becomes an eternal asset, bringing blessings not just in this life, but for generations to come. Join hands with us to keep the flame of devotion burning bright at Hare Krishna Golden Temple.
