About This Cause
We are located just near Florida State University in Tallahassee, FL . We are dedicated to serve the student community daily freshly prepared Vegetarian lunches that have been prepared by our priests and blessed by Krishna. We also serve as the place of worship for those who wish to follow Bhakti Yoga. This includes the Indian community who accept Krishna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. To do this we cook vegetarian meals daily for the public, worship the Diety of Krishna and offer studies in Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam. Other functions are daily Aratis, and our main activity which is the chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra. This we do both in private meditation as japa and in group meditation with musical instruments called kirtan in which everyone is encouraged to participate.
