Newly discovered film of the installation of Gaura Nitai Deities at Radha Govinda New York City temple in 1974. Gives a very unique glimpse into ISKCON in the United States while Srila Prabhupada was physically present.
Includes Fire Yajna, Gaura Aroti and ecstatic kirtan.

- Aaditya Sreekumar 2 years agoHare Krshna mataji dandavat pranam Jai Srila Prabhupada. I am extremely honoured to hear your testimony the modern day Iskcon has lost its potency due to disobeying Srila Prabhupada but nevertheless ISKM under the guidance of HG Sundar Gopal prabhu is reviving the actual Hare Krshna movement and I must say when i went to ISKM temple after going to many Iskcon temples it felt like ISKM is where Srila Prabhupada is at
