Shrichaitanya Gaudiya Sevashram Foundation

You can find the Shrichaitanya Gaudiya Sevashram Foundation over at Hoolorghat in Sree Mayapur. We’re located with Bhakti Promod Harijan Maharaj. Mayapur is a very spiritual place, as many people know, but our foundation is just a small part of the life here. We focus on sevashram work, which basically means service. We aren't trying to be a big corporate entity or anything like that. It’s a very humble setup. Most of the time, our days are filled with the sounds of the river and the bells from the temples. We spend our hours helping out with the various needs of the community and the pilgrims who pass through Hoolorghat. It’s not a high-pressure environment, though we do stay quite busy. There’s no fancy office with air conditioning here. We just have our simple space where we organize our activities. People come to see the Maharaj and often end up helping us out with whatever we’re doing that day. It’s a very different pace of life than the city. We don't have brochures or big signs. People usually find us by word of mouth or because they’re already in Mayapur for the spiritual atmosphere. It’s just us doing our service in a quiet, traditional way. We’ve been here at Hoolorghat for a long time and we just take each day as it comes, doing what’s needed for the people around us.
