A spiritual home in the heart of Kota

ISKCON Kota is part of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, founded by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

For decades, our temple has been a refuge of peace in the city — a place where people of every background come together to chant the Holy Name, study the Bhagavad-gita and experience a life of purpose and joy.

Whether you are new to Krishna consciousness or a longtime devotee, you will find a warm welcome, sacred worship and a community that cares.
