The fulfillment of the desire of visionaries, from Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu down to Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, saints and incarnations, the Temple of the Vedic Planetarium is a unique and ambitious project to make the vast culture and philosophy of the timeless Vedic tradition accessible to everyone. Raising Lord Chaitanya’s temple by the hands of every devotee... Srila Prabhupadas most dear and ambitious project was to build the TOVP. On Bhaktisiddhanthas appearance day, Srila Prabhupada in his lecture personally requested his disciples to endeavor to make this temple happen, and while speaking his voice became choked up. TOVP is not building another preaching center, but actually Mahaprabhus home. We have a chance to participate in inviting Mahaprabhu to this beautiful temple. $45 million is approx. 300,000 sq feet at $150 per sq foot. If 200 temples worldwide were to participate in this campaign, it would average out to 1500 sq feet per temple. If all temples could enthusiastically take this responsibility, then this campaign will be successful. 2016 is the 50th anniversary of ISKCON and we would like to have all the money we require to complete the temple which is approx. $45 million and offer this to Srila Prabhupada as our collective Guru Dakshin to him, as gratitude for giving us this wonderful ISKCON society for the last 50 years.
