This is my Radha Madan Mohans new backdrop. Its a banner made from a picture I took when I was in Vrindavan. It makes it look like they are Home.
Dressed with Bhakti by Bhakti. Bhakti has dressed Radha Madan Mohan about 25 times.

"Just like Madana-mohana, He was talking with Sanätana Goswami. Madana-mohana... Sanätana Goswami at that time had no temple; he was hanging his Deity on the tree. So Madana-mohana was talking with him, "Sanätana, you are bringing all these dry capatis, and it is stale, and you don't give Me even little salt. How can I eat?" Sanätana Goswami said, "Sir, where shall I go? Whatever I get I offer You. You kindly accept. I cannot move, old man." You see. So Krsna had to eat that. (chuckles) Because the bhakta is offering He cannot refuse. Yo me bhaktyä prayacchati. Real thing is bhakti. What you can offer to Krsna? Everything belongs to Krsna. What you have got? What is your value? And what is the value of your things? It is nothing. Therefore real thing is bhaktyä, real thing is your feeling. "Krsna, kindly take it. I have no qualification. I am most rotten, fallen, but (begins to cry) I have brought this thing for you. Please take it." This will be accepted. Don't be puffed up. Always be careful. You are dealing with Krsna. That is my request. Thank you very much. " Srila Prabhupad, Deity Installation, Los Angeles 1969.

It was an unbelievable experience. The wonderful Yadu Prabhu accompanied us to Dvadasyaditya teela. A few people asked if I would give my Lords to them. Many shouted "Radhe!" but everyone that crossed our path was amazed by Their beauty.


We arrived. This was the place where Sanatan Goswami worshipped His dear, most merciful Lord. This was the most wonderful home of Madhan Mohan. This was the best day ever!

Radhanatha Swami was in town recently and he told everyone that the first Deities Srila Prabhupad saw were Radha Madhan Mohan!

My wife, Yamuna, and I began worship of Radha Madhan Mohan on August 30, 2003. We had a little festival in our home, where we made the commitment to worship Them. Thirty-five people came to the festival and helped us welcome our dear Lords and nothing has ever been the same for us. Every single day for the rest of my life will begin in the same glorious way that it started out on August 31st, 2003. Each day will begin with worship of the Conquerer of cupid and His beloved consort. It feels awesome to be able to do this personal service to Them. To accept This worship from us, with all of our faults, you know that They must be the most merciful of all.
