Welcome to the Saranagati Temple!

The home of Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai


  • The two Lords, Gaura and Nitai, are also known as Chaitanya and Nityananda.

    We learn from the Chaitanya-Charitamrita and other Vedic scriptures that, in a special appearance more than 500 years ago, Krishna personally came as Lord Chaitanya and acted as His own devotee. Lord Nityananda appeared at a similar time and is declared to be the avatar of Krishna’s brother, Balaram.

    Krishna taught Bhagavad-gita to liberate all souls, and He returned as Lord Chaitanya to show us how to apply the Gita’s teachings and how to attain pure love of God by the easy process of chanting Krishna’s holy names in the form of the maha-mantra.

  • The Saranagati Temple is striving to…

    • Facilitate deep immersion into the teachings and practices of Krishna consciousness, especially chanting Hare Krishna, as taught by Srila Prabhupada.

    • Support its members in their devotional service and in their individual inspiration.

    • Provide opportunities for experiencing the simple living and high thinking rural lifestyle of Saranagati Village.

    • Maintain an encouraging, intimate, peaceful, and safe atmosphere for all ages.
