Temple Schedule
At Sri Sri Krishna Balaram Mandir, Vrindavan – Bon Accueil, devotional activities go on through out the day. The Temple activities’ timing varies based on Winter season and Summer season. At certain times, the altar doors are closed – means at these times, a visitor will not have Darshan (glimpse or view) of Sri Sri Krishna Balaram.

In the Nāradīya Purāṇa it is stated, “If a person stays in the Lord’s temple even for a few moments, he can surely achieve the transcendental kingdom of God.”
Even a person who has never been able to give in charity, who has never been able to perform a great sacrifice, who has never been able to study the Vedas, who has never been able to worship the Lord – or, in other words, even one who has never done any pious activities – will become eligible to enter into the kingdom of God if he simply drinks the caraṇāmṛta that is kept in the temple.
