Krishna Island Development Plan

🌺 Join us in putting Krishna Island on the map as a premiere spiritual destination: Krishna Island Fundraising Campaign 🌺

Dear Devotees and Friends of Sri Sri Radha Govinda,

Namaste and Hare Krishna! We stand at the threshold of an auspicious moment in the journey of our beloved Krishna Island. Since July 1986, Krishna Island has been the home of Radha Govinda. Through thick and thin, our Krishna Island,  has been the principal place of worship for ISKCON Ireland, and a sacred sanctuary nestled amidst the serene beauty of Lough Erne.  We invite you, our cherished community, to join hands in realizing the vision of Radha Govinda’s home, as a transcendental haven for all seekers of truth and to provide a first-class facility for all who come.

Over the years by Their divine will, through struggle, unwavering dedication, and profound love, you the devotees, and the larger devotee community, have nurtured Krishna Island into a premier spiritual destination. Offering solace and inspiration to countless souls on their quest for God and enlightenment through Bhakti Yoga and Krishna consciousness and through your unwavering support, we have witnessed the fruition of numerous infrastructure upgrades and the creation of a new deity room. Having completed this first phase we now embark on the second part of our development plan and for that we need your help..

As we set our sights on the next phase of our journey, we seek your continued support and participation in realising the full potential of Krishna Island. Our vision encompasses the creation of a vibrant new quarter, complete with a spacious prasadam room and comfortable guest accommodations, ensuring that every visitor to our sacred abode experiences unparalleled comfort and spiritual nourishment.

At the heart of this endeavor lies the crucial need to secure between 20 and 40 regular monthly donors, whose steadfast commitment will provide the financial foundation necessary to fulfill our goals and honor our current successful loan obligations. By pledging a recurring donation of €20, €50, or €108 euros monthly, you not only become a vital contributor to Krishna Island’s growth but also deepen your personal relationship with Sri Sri Radha Govinda.

Krishna Island is not merely a physical space; it is a spiritual home, lovingly upheld and sustained by the devotion and generosity of its community. As stewards of Radha Govinda Dhama, it is our sacred responsibility to ensure the well-being of their divine abode, nurturing it with the same love and care with which they grace us each day.

By joining our fundraising campaign, you not only contribute to the material development of Krishna Island but also sow the seeds for boundless spiritual blessings and eternal grace. Each donation, no matter how small, serves as a sacred offering to Sri Sri Radha Govinda, enriching your own spiritual journey and drawing you ever closer to Srila Prabhupada and Radha Govinda.

Let us unite in this divine endeavor, as we work together to manifest the vision of a truly heavenly Krishna Island—a sanctuary of love, devotion, and enlightenment for generations to come.

Hare Krishna! Glories to Srila Prabhupada

With heartfelt gratitude and devotion,

Temple President

Krishna Island

“The Lord in the temple in the worshipable form is never to be considered to be made of stone or wood, for the Lord in His arca incarnation as the Deity in the temple shows immense favor to the fallen souls by His auspicious presence. By the hearing process, as mentioned hereinbefore, this realization of the presence of the Lord in the temple is made possible.”
(Srimad-Bhagavatam 2.3.21, Purport)
