Celebrate RamaNavami on Saturday, Vaisesika Prabhu association for full week at ISV

Dear esteemed ISV Devotees,

Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Srila Prabhupada in 1969  at Hawaii said "Ramacandra's life, God's activities, pastimes, if we hear, that means we are associating with Ramacandra. There is no difference between His form, His name, His pastimes, and Himself. He's absolute. Therefore either you chant the holy name of Rama or you see the statue of Rama, or you talk of His transcendental pastimes, everything, that means you are associating with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. We take advantage of these days when the incarnation of God appears or disappears, and we try to associate with Him."

ISKCON of Silicon Valley cordially invites you to join us in celebrating the auspicious occasion of Sri Rama Navami on March 31st, 2012  and  We have opportunity for full day devotional engagement for all.

IMPORTANT PARKING INSTRUCTIONS: We will NOT be able to park in any of the spaces in front of the shops next to
 the temple. (Including the Check Cashing store, the barber shop, etc.) We will also not be able to park along the wall adjacent to the temple. The landlord of these shops has a new parking policy and will tow any cars parked there that are not patrons of their shops.
Street side parking is available on streets near the intersection of Del Mar Ave and Lynnhaven Dr (for example on Lynnhaven Dr, on Roenoke Way, on Del Mar Ave, etc.). If you park your car in front of a home, please do not block their driveway. Del Mar Ave runs parallel to Bascom ave. There is a small drive way (belongs to Steetlight Records; you can see this on Google maps satellite view) that joins Bascom and Del Mar Ave
 located in between Lynnhaven Dr and Roenoke Way. This is a short cut way to walk to the temple after parking your car.

There is a small drive way (belongs to Steetlight Records; you can see this on Google maps satellite view) that joins Bascom and Del Mar Ave

ISV Statements for Fiscal Year 2011

Dear ISV devotees

Please accept my respectful obesisances. 
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

We are pleased to share the Annual statement for Fiscal Year 2011 with all of you. A copy is also put on Temple Broadcasting  Board

This is a very intense service and is possible because of relentless efforts from His Grace Raxit Prabhu, Her Grace Neetika Mataji and assisted by Kala Mataji

In summary ISV added more than $122K as surplus this year which is 40% higher than  2010 when we had surplus of $81,155

Thanks to all the donors and volunteers without their support we would not have a Warm and welcoming home base.
