Message from -
HDG. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada ISKCON Founder Acharya

I have named this temple Sri Mayapur Candrodaya Mandir, the Rising Moon of Mayapur. Now make it rise, bigger and bigger, until it becomes the full moon, and this moonshine will be spread all over the world. All over India, they will come to see. From all over the world, they will come to Mayapur. We are trying to create a place of inspiration for people, pilgrims, guests and devotees, from both nearby and far corners of the world, to experience spiritual upliftment while being received, accommodated, honoured, cared for, and given an opportunity to learn about and engage in devotional service.

HH. Jayapataka Swami - ISKCON Guru, GBC Member, Author
Mayapur

Prabhupada told us, "You should take nice care of guests, feed them nice prasadam, give them personal attention, ask them how they are doing and what they need." So as a foundational host for pilgrims, HH. Jayapataka Swami emphasises that Life Patrons visiting the Dham must be provided with comfortable accommodations and the opportunity to engage deeply in hearing, chanting, and devotional service
