All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga

One of Srila Gurudev Srila Govinda Maharaj's last wishes has now become a reality: a beautiful temple building has at last manifested by his divine grace near Heathrow Airport. This is in addition to the established Temple in Green Street, East London, blessed by Srila Gurudev's lotus feet on several occasions.

Built in 1847, this newly acquired, charming and spacious property is of historic importance. Located in the West of London, it is only about 5 minutes drive from the airport. Srila Acharya Maharaj envisions it as a dynamic preaching centre as well as a transit centre convenient for devotees passing through Heathrow Airport.

The New London Centre of Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math is already taking shape nicely. The project is headed by Saraswati Devi Dasi and Lalita Madhava Prabhu, who are happy to give you more information about the various service opportunities available (see our address and contact information at the bottom of the page).

There is great opportunity for seva here at this time, with so much to do.
We are very pleased to have received permission to change the legal use of the building from it's earlier designation as an office. We are now busy making it more suitable for the devotees' use and for public gatherings. We have just completed an extension to the kitchen and we plan to instal a disabled toilet, showers and four additional en-suit bathrooms. All the refurbishment is enthusiastically being done by the devotees.
