Veda Foundation Cow Sanctuary

Welcome to the Hare Krishna Temple in DeLand. A safe, special and sacred place of Krishna’s cows. A spiritual oasis in the heart of Florida, established by H.H Bhakti Charu Swami in 2018 as a humble offering to His beloved Divine Grace A. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. This place is a sanctuary for all, providing opportunities to experience the science, culture & joy of spirituality. We offer aut

horised Vedic samskaras (life events), yajnas (fire sacraments), delicious prasad (sanctified food), catering & community hall rental for a variety of occasions. This project aims to provide a sanctuary for cows, to protect and nurture them, help society develop their love for cows, and establish the principles of Vedic culture for future generations to pursue. We have a free weekly Sunday Mind Body Soul Event where we taste the bliss of yoga, meditation, breathing exercises, healthy living, healthy eating, and a chance to pet and feed our 15 cows! We start out day at 4:30am in a lively morning program filled with meditations, appreciations, live music and meditation, bhakti yoga and spiritual discussions. We read books like Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam. There are many many various spiritual books one can take with them also. We then serve during the day in a variety of activities ranging from gardening to cooking, cleaning to hosting, tending the cows all the way to dancing on the streets of downtown DeLand! We are committed to fulfill the vision of His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami Maharaja. Bring your friends and family, spend the day with the cows, and enjoy the calm, serene and divine atmosphere of our temple against the magnificent backdrop of the Ocala national rainforest. A place you’ll simply fall in love with! Love Krishna’s cows and love life! Latest news: we are offering online vedic courses. Please visit ibmvna.org for more information.
