About ISKCON Bhakti Kutir

Located amidst the tranquil surroundings of the Valvanti River and near the historic Vitthal Rukmini Mandir, ISKCON Bhakti Kutir Goa is a sanctuary for spiritual seekers. Inaugurated on January 24, 2012, by His Holiness Bhakti Vikas Swami, a devoted disciple of Srila Prabhupada, this temple has been a beacon of peace, devotion, and enlightenment for the local community and visitors alike.
Our mission aligns with the vision of Srila Prabhupada, the founder-acharya of ISKCON, to spread Krishna consciousness across the world. At ISKCON Bhakti Kutir, we emphasize the importance of devotion (bhakti), service (seva), and knowledge (gyan) through various programs and initiatives, including:
Daily Kirtans and Aratis: Melodious devotional chanting that uplifts the spirit and connects us with the divine.


Scriptural Discourses: Teachings from the Bhagavad-gita and Srimad Bhagavatam that inspire wisdom and inner peace.


Festivals and Celebrations: Grand celebrations of Janmashtami, Ratha Yatra, and other festivals that bring devotees together in joyous devotion.


Community Outreach: Spreading the message of love, compassion, and Krishna consciousness to inspire lives.


Youth and Family Programs: Interactive sessions to engage families and young minds in spiritual learning.
Set in an environment of natural beauty, ISKCON Bhakti Kutir offers a serene space for prayer, meditation, and self-reflection. The proximity to the Valvanti River adds to its charm, making it a perfect destination for those seeking peace and purpose. Nearby, the sacred Vitthal Rukmini Mandir stands as a testimony to the region’s rich spiritual and cultural history.
At ISKCON Bhakti Kutir, we strive to serve as a spiritual lighthouse, illuminating hearts with the eternal teachings of Lord Krishna. Whether you are looking for spiritual growth, community connection, or inner peace, our temple welcomes you to be part of this divine journey.
