"3. PHASE III: A temple of Sri Radha Krishna-chandra will be erected in the same complex, behind Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami temple."
The Endowments Department of Andhra Pradesh has allotted Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami Temple situated on Road No.12, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, to the Hare Krishna Movement – Hyderabad (HKMHYD), for renovation and developmental works.
The presiding Deity, Lord Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami, is a swayambhu (self manifested) Deity on a huge boulder. The Lord’s temple is one of the city’s most ancient. The allotted land is about 5 acres, out of which half is a hillock on which there is currently a small temple that houses the Deity.
HKM-HYD started its activities at the newly allotted temple land in January, 2011. The land survey has been done by the architect and the preliminary designs for the master plan of a major project have been made.
Project Highlights:
1. PHASE I: Renovation and restoration of the existing Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami Temple. Another large Deity of Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami, about 5 to 6 feet tall will also be installed. There will also be a small themed exhibit depicting the glorious pastime of Lord Narasimha and Bhakta Prahlada.
2. PHASE II: A temple of Lord Srinivasa Govinda (Lord Balaji) will be erected in the same complex, adjacent to Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami temple.
3. PHASE III: A temple of Sri Radha Krishna-chandra will be erected in the same complex, behind Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swami temple.
4. During the course of construction at all phases, amenities will also come up, to facilitate the celebration of various festivals, programmes and events.
Up-coming festivals:
HKM-HYD is planning a grand celebration for Sri Narasimha Chaturdashi on May 16, 2011. Preceding this will be the Chandan Yatra, when the Deity of Lord Narasimha will be adorned in sandalwood pulp. All devotees are requested to participate in the festivals along with their family members and take the blessings of the Lord.
The following events are planned for the Lord on Sri Narasimha Chaturdashi:
Early morning abhisheka for the swayambhu Deity, followed by Kalyanotsava before noon. The day will conclude with an elaborate spectacular abhisheka to the utsava vigraha.

This is very good news prabhu, anandambudhi vardhanam prati padam purnamrtasvadanam, the world got more proof that Iskcon Bangalore is the house where the whole world can live in because SRILA PRABHUPADA is there by giving instructions, guidance and enlightenment to the real devotees.
“I am very glad that you are trying with all the other GBC members to maintain all the various functions of our very large organization up to the standard as I have set for you. This is most important. So please always work cooperatively for this end. I know that there has been a great disturbance amongst the devotees caused recently, but now things are being rectified.
You are right to say that the example and kindly guidance of our elder members in the Society is the most profound force for motivating our students both new and old towards advanced Krsna Consciousness. Neglect of following the regulative activities and so-called advancement on the basis of self-motivation are both offensive. One should sincerely try to bring himself to the stage of devotional service motivated by pure love of Krsna, and our personal example must set a guide for them.”
(Letter to Satsvarupa, Bombay, 25 November, 1970)
