Gurugram Bhim Kund

The temple follows a structured daily schedule centred on five aartis—ritual offerings of light and devotion to the Deities. The day begins with the Mangala Aarti at 4:30 AM, considered the most auspicious darshan of the day. This is followed by congregational chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra at 5:30 AM. The Sringar Darshan Aarti at 7:15 AM presents the Lordships adorned in fresh flowers and morning dress.

The Rajbhog Aarti at 12:30 PM marks the grand midday offering. The Deities then rest from 1:00 PM to 4:15 PM. Evening worship resumes with the Sandhya (Gaura) Aarti at 6:30 PM, described as a particularly beautiful and popular darshan accompanied by full kirtan (devotional singing). The day concludes with the Shayana Aarti at 9:00 PM before the Deities retire for the night.

Daily classes on the Srimad Bhagavatam are held at 8:00 AM, and evening classes on the Bhagavad Gita take place at 8:00 PM. These sessions offer visitors an opportunity to engage with Vedic teachings in a structured setting.

Visiting the Temple: Timings and Practicalities

The temple is open every day of the week. Morning darshan runs from 4:30 AM to 1:00 PM, and evening darshan from 4:15 PM to 9:00 PM. There is no entry fee, and prasadam (blessed food) is offered to all visitors. The temple remains closed to the public between 1:00 PM and 4:15 PM while the Deities rest.

For those seeking the most vibrant experience, the Mangala Aarti at 4:30 AM and the Sandhya Aarti at 6:30 PM are highlighted as the most beautiful darshans, both featuring full kirtan. Weekends and festival days draw larger congregations and offer a more animated atmosphere. Visitors should note that on major festivals such as Janmashtami, special programmes may extend the temple's hours late into the night; checking the Vaishnava Calendar or contacting the temple directly is advisable for festival-specific timings.

Temples in the Krishna consciousness tradition typically request that visitors dress modestly and remove footwear before entering the inner sanctum. Photography policies vary; it is best to inquire at the temple. The temple can be reached at +91 85272 15003 for any questions regarding facilities, special services, or guest accommodation.
