Vrindavan, a forest full of basil (a sacred plant for Hindus), where Lord Krishna as a child and in adolescence used to play and graze his cows along-with other shepherd boys and girls. It is here that he performed many of his leelas or games to enlighten the people about his divinity. It is here that great saints & yogis realized the ultimate, not by going through the rigors of Hatha Yoga but through Bhakti Yoga or complete surrender to the supreme. It was surrender in love and not submission, that the great saints became one with the supreme in the form of Lord Krishna and his divine consort Radha.

Madan Mohan Temple: The Madan Mohan Temple, built by Kapur Ram Das of Multan, is located near the Kali Ghat. This is the oldest existing temple in Vrindavan today. The temple is closely associated with the saint Chaitanya. The original idol of Lord Madan Gopal was shifted from the shrine to Karauli in Rajasthan for safe keeping, during Aurangzeb's rule. Today, a replica of the image is worshiped at the temple.
