Everyone is welcome to join their beautiful service every Sunday that begins with congregational kirtan or devotional song and dance, followed by Bhagavad Gita or scripture class, and ends with a free vegetarian ‘saatvik’ dinner for all.
There are kids programs going on parallely to the class.
There is also a small gift shop that is open only on Sunday evenings and festivals. It sells Indian temple essentials and books.
