It was established in 1976 by Srila Prabhupada who named the presiding deities, Sri Sri Nitai Gaurachandra. The temple throughout the years has gone through many ups and down. However, in the recent years, it has picked up a notable momentum in the trail to fulfil Prabhupada\u2019s desire to create Vrindavan Villages. One may ask, what exactly is a Vrindavan Village? Is it that we replicate Vrindavan Dham from India? Is it that we create farm communities to grow our own food, make cloth, etc.? is it a retreat location? Not exactly. Vrindavan is where Krishna is the life and soul of the entire village. Every breath taken is heavy with the thoughts of Syam. Every step taken is in the hope to come closer to Govinda. Rather than replicating Vrindavan Dham, far more important, Our Acharya suggest, is to imbibe the moods of the Vrajbhasis. Our Dear Srila Prabhupada at the end of his manifested life on this earthly planet emphasized the importance of establishing Vrindavan Village where Radha and Krishna are the central focus of any act. Whether we are milking the cows, making garden beds, planting trees, or cooking &#8211; everything is centered around Radha and Krishna. Life in the village is very simple which leaves more time to cultivate your internal Bhajan to Syamsundar. We have first-hand witnessed this at Murari Sevaka. There is more much to say about Murari Sevaka. However, we will reserve that for another time. <\/p>\n<p>Below is a video to introduce you to the residents of Murari Sevaka. We put together this video to explain, in a concise manner, the importance of Vrindavan Villages. We ask everyone to come and bless us with your association. Come, stay for as long you like, and see for yourself if this is something that sparks a fire in your heart. <\/p>\n<p>We ask that you may be merciful on us and bless us in the pursuit of fulfilling Prabhupada\u2019s desire to create Vrindavan Villages. <\/p>\n<p>Srila Prabhupada ki Jai!<br \/>\nVrindavan Village ki Jai!<br \/>\nGaudiya Guru Varga ki Jai!<br \/>\nWatch it here: <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/32TzPb\">https:\/\/goo.gl\/32TzPb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/78.media.tumblr.com\/86975a99a833a00d27af11ba74b75c28\/tumblr_p70pi6k3ht1sbj0vuo1_500.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Murari Kirtan Valley &#8211; Vrndavan Villages (13 min video)<br \/>\nISKCON Murari Sevaka is a farm community in Mulberry, Tennessee, USA based on Srila Prabhupada&rsquo;s desire to create Vrindavan villages.
