The Corpus Fund is the spiritual backbone of the temple. Just as a lamp needs constant oil to continue burning, the temple needs steady support to keep its divine light alive. In our scriptures, Bhagavan Krishna teaches that offering resources to preserve dharma is one of the highest forms of service. Think of the great king Harishchandra, who surrendered everything he owned to uphold truth and righteousness. His sacrifice became the foundation upon which divine blessings flowed. Likewise, when we contribute to the Corpus Fund, we are supporting the long-term stability of the temple ensuring that worship, rituals, festivals, and spiritual services continue uninterrupted for generations. This fund is not spent immediately; it grows like a sacred tree whose fruits nourish the community year after year. By donating to the Corpus Fund, you are planting seeds of punya, prosperity, and protection for your family and future lineage. Your donation strengthens the temple today and safeguards it for tomorrow.

General donations help the temple serve devotees every single day—through rituals, prasad distribution, maintenance, lighting lamps, supporting priests, and hosting religious events. These offerings reflect the timeless Hindu value of “Anna, Arogya & Aradhana Seva”—feeding the body, caring for people, and worshipping the Divine. In the Bhagavata Purana, there is the inspiring story of the poor woman Vidura’s wife, who had nothing but a handful of banana peels. Out of pure devotion, she offered them to Lord Krishna. The Lord accepted them with joy, not because of their material value, but because of the bhava (love) behind the offering. This story teaches us: Even a small donation, when given with devotion, becomes sacred. What matters is the heart, not the amount. Giving regularly keeps spiritual energy flowing in our lives. Your general donation helps maintain the temple’s day-to-day activities, supports the community, and ensures that every devotee who visits feels the grace of Bhagavan.

Temples are not just physical structures; they are centers of cosmic energy, places where the presence of God is felt, worshipped, and experienced. Over time, like all sacred spaces, they require care, restoration, and renewal. The story of Lord Rama rebuilding and restoring temples during His exile teaches us that maintaining sacred places is a divine duty. Even the Pandavas, during their travels, renovated hundreds of temples as an offering to Lord Shiva and other deities. Renovation is considered a powerful form of Kshetra Dāna a donation made to protect holy sites. When a temple is restored: The sanctum regains its spiritual vibrance Rituals become more powerful Devotees experience greater peace and blessings The energy of the deity radiates more strongly into the community By contributing to the renovation fund, you are directly participating in the sacred work of preserving dharma. Every stone repaired, every pillar restored, and every sanctum beautified becomes a part of your spiritual legacy. This is one of the highest forms of seva restoring the home of God Himself
