Close your eyes, pray to your favorite Krishna and visualize in your mind’s eye a new temple in Saranagati. Keeping in mind some of the following questions describe what you see. Elaborate on details according to your personal inspiration.
The roof may not be important to you but maybe the doors are very important. This building may be practical, and functional, and it may also be beautiful, inspiring and strong enough to last for a thousand years. What about the area surrounding the temple, what do you see? Would you like to draw a picture to explain what you see? Do Vastu or Feng Shui play a roll in the design?
A summary compilation of these visions will be used to come up with a few different drawings of design options for “Temple Hill”.
After there is a consensus as to which drawing best reflects our collective desire for the future that will then become the basis for the fund raising campaign.
Happy vision questing.
