Live-recorded transcript of the grand opening ceremony for Sri Ratha Krishna and Sri Konditai Mandir (ISKCON ICC). Speakers lead purification rites (invoking Vishwaksena, Sudarshana, Vasudeva, and a Vastu yajna/fire ritual), conduct group chanting of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra, instruct devotees on offering dravya/swaha and flower distribution, and give practical announcements (prasadam, donor gift collection, and a Q&A session at 4:30–5:30pm). The tone is devotional and instructional, focused on consecration of the temple and community participation.

It. Sa Sam. All my friends, Sa it.
We welcome all of you for this grand opening of Sri Ratha Krishna and Sri Konditai Mandir. You are almost fortunate because you have. Because you have all participated personally with all your energies including Lakshmi for the building of this most wonderful temple here in South Kangal. As of now uttermost auspicious our rehab at the most auspicious hour we have started the ceremonies. Everybody knows that before anyone can enter into a griha they have to purify the briha. They have to invoke the presence of the Lord. Therefore, following the same dictum of the Vedant in the Prasada of the Lord, we have also done the same thing. The first thing that we have done is we have worshiped Vishwak Senak, the commander in chief of the supreme personality of God's army. We have offered him 16 kinds of Mubacharas and because of which he is completely pleased. So you can ask him whatever you want. After pleasing Vishwaksena, we have offered respects to Sudarshana, Sudhashana who is always non separable from the supreme personality of Guided with Fire or Agni personified, who can dispel all the Tamas that has been accumulating within our heart since millions of lifetimes. We have invoked his blessings. We have offered worship to Vasudeva because Vasudeva is everywhere and Vasudeva is the personality. You can actually cleanse every single part of an area and every single construction, construction element. But according to the Gaudi of Aishtavas Vasuraja, he 1 doubt he is an Asura. He is an Astra type Pranata is an Asura like Bodhi Maharaja and therefore he is a great devotee of the Lord. So we don't burn Vastu. Rather we take the fire representing Vastru and we take it all along. And this fire will burn away all the impurities, the karmas that have accumulated in this place because of undisturbed and uncontrolled women of all kinds of people who are not devotees. Because many people are involved in the construction and many of them may be even Nastikas. But then we pray that everyone who is associated with the women of Vishnu, Araya, Krishna, Madhya, they should all be benefited so that today and tomorrow they can all become devotees of the Lord as per the wishes of his divine race. Desi, Bhaktivedam, Daswari, Prabhupada. So now we are going to do the Yajna to propitiate verse 2. Some people may wonder what are these brunets doing in the Vastu Yagna? So you can understand it like this. There are so many negative energies in all our homes because of so many different kinds of pranas of Brahmas. By involving yourself in this vast Yajna of the Mandiya wherein the Lord will come and be present here eternally. Shirakalam all your house can also become purified. So let us chant the Harika Mahmuda and let's go on to the next.

So that the blessings of love will be on his person when Guru Maharaj comes to impress that all of us to stay where you are. You should not go even one million, not one inch one after Allah because his health is not very good, not in a good state. We should not give him too much talent. Yesterday we all saw how he was having so many difficulties. And in spite of that, he has come all the way to Bangalore to be with you all, with us all. So we should cooperate and not go too much beyond him and crowd around him.
