overview

Sri Sri Radha Muralidhar were originally installed in Cleveland, OH in 1974. Although Srila Prabhupada was not present for the installation, he personally gave the instruction to name Them Radha Muralidhara. We are honored, grateful, and enlivened to celebrate 50 years of service by inviting devotees from numerous cities and yatras who have given their hearts through love and service to Sri Sri Radha Muralidhar over the past five decades. The weekend will be filled with lots of kirtan, special darshans and abhishek, along with katha, and memories from devotees.

NEW family room

This event will include a Family Room (2E), which will be a designated space for devotees with small children. Specifically, during the katha, caregivers can stay connected to the program through an audio feed while engaging with children and other families. We want to build an inclusive and nurturing environment, ensuring a delightful experience for everyone, especially the youngest members of our community. Please note, this room will be unavailable during aratis and prasadam, as it will also serve as a prasadam area for Prabhupada disciples and other esteemed guests. We thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to welcoming you and your family!
