ISKCON Seattle - Vedic Cultural Center
ISKCON Seattle - Vedic Cultural Center and Sri Sri Radha Nila Madhava Temple
Address: 1420 228 Ave SE Sammamish, WA 98075
Presiding Deities: Radha-Nila Madhava, Gaura-Nitai, and Sita-Rama.
Two-storey custom-built Indian-style temple, with temple room upstairs and prasadam hall downstairs. The temple’s minimal residential facilities house only the deities' three priests. However, 25 families, mostly initiated, live nearby.
Vedic Cultural Center and Sri Sri Radha Nila Madhava temple sits just across from Sammamish City Hall. With its Indian architecture and pink sandstone color, the impressive two-storey building draws intrigued looks from the 20,000 people that drive by it every day.
There’s Children of Faith, a program that invites children of all faiths—Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Baha’ai, Sikh, and more—to express their religious beliefs through song, dance, art, poetry and other culturally expressive mediums. There are classes on singing, dancing, tabla, yoga, languages, and cooking. And there are both introductory and in-depth Vedic University Classes that offer formal training in Srila Prabhupada’s books of spiritual wisdom. Most of these are held weekly.
“We also have Saturday Movie Night, where we serve pizza and popcorn and show Disney-quality animated movies about Krishna, and other Krishna-related films,” says Hari Vilasa. In addition to its traditional temple festivals, the Vedic Cultural Center also holds events for its community, such as summer’s three-day Ananda Mela, supported by and held in the City of Redmond, an upscale suburb of Seattle. With the byline “A Cultural Journey to India,” it will include an audio-visual temple tour of India’s architectural wonders; educational exhibits based on the philosophy of the Vedas; a prasadam food booth; children’s rides and activities, and entertainment on two performance stages. The festival draws 10 to 20,000 people.
The Vedic Cultural Center also engages in activities that are purely social welfare: Its completely free vegetarian restaurant, My Sweet Lord, has served Seattle for eight years. Its current temple building will soon be expanding a further 1,200 square feet, while new hand-carved altars and new larger Deities of Sita, Rama, Lakshman and Hanuman are on their way.
