Dear Friends,

We honour His Grace Ramanujacharya Prabhu who turns 67 today. Ramanujacharya Prabhu first came to South Africa in 1974 and we are honoured to have him reside with us at Sri Sri Radha Radhanath Temple.

2013 Kartik Pack Distribution


Sri Sri Radha Radhanath Temple aims to distribute 15 000 Kartik packs to households this year. The Kartik pack consists of a new altar, booklet describing the significance of Kartik, and two lamps. We encourage everyone to help distribute the Kartik packs to neighbours, people in your area, family and friends and help them learn about the glories of offering a lamp to Lord Damodar during Kartik in their homes. While the pack is not for sale, donations will be accepted for their benefit. This is a wonderful opportunity to engage in service over Kartik, as we know, any service is multiplied one thousand times in this holy month. Contact Balaram: 082 881 4521.
