What is krishna.se (ISKCON Korsnäs Gård / New Radhakunda)?

krishna.se is the website of the ISKCON temple and spiritual centre at Korsnäs Gård, south of Stockholm near Tumba — described on the site as the only Radha-Krishna temple in Scandinavia and home to Sri Sri Gandharvika-Giridhari and the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust. It is a working Hare Krishna temple open daily, and the site is aimed at visitors: it publishes the daily worship schedule, altar opening information, festival listings, and news about Srila Prabhupada's books. If you are looking for a Hare Krishna temple near Stockholm, want to attend a service or open house, or are trying to place the organisation behind the domain, this page covers what the site itself states.

What the site is

• Organisation: ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness), the movement founded by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896–1977), whom the site names as founder-acarya and foremost spiritual master.
• Location: Korsnäs Gård, in the countryside south of Stockholm, near Tumba. The site also refers to itself as "ISKCON Stockholm countryside" and "ISKCON Mandir near Stockholm."
• Name used on the site: New Radhakunda, alongside the Korsnäs Gård name.
• Historical note given: the temple at Korsnäs Gård was established in 1976, part of the 108 temples the site credits to Prabhupada's guidance.
• Also hosted: the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust, the publishing arm associated with Prabhupada's writings.

The deities

The presiding deities are Sri Sri Gandharvika-Giridhari, described as encompassing the divine presence of Radha and Krishna. The temple also houses:

• Sri Caitanya and Sri Nityananda
• Giri-Govardhana
• Lord Nrsimha
• Twelve sacred shalagram-shilas

The site directs visitors to a separate page for altar opening timings, so darshan (viewing the deities) is tied to those hours rather than to the building being open.

Visiting: schedule and what to expect

The site presents an open-house invitation: everyone is invited, and everything is free. The published daily programme is:

Two practical points follow from this. First, the day starts very early — the 4.30 am arati is the first entry, so plan travel to Korsnäs Gård accordingly if you intend to join it. Second, the 8.15 am slot combines meditation with a Q&A, which is the most direct opening on the schedule for a first-time visitor with questions. The site also has a "Plan your visit" section and a festival calendar for events beyond the daily programme.

Books and the temple shop

The site's book section is currently promoting four of Srila Prabhupada's works in new editions, dated September 2026:

• Bhagavad-gita As It Is, Premium Edition — large-format, 1,008 pages, hardcover with dust jacket, 64 reproductions of original paintings.
• Teachings of Lord Caitanya and The Nectar of Devotion — two hardcover companion editions with complementary covers.
• Sri Isopanisad — illustrated, completing the collection.

According to the page, the books have arrived in Sweden, Germany, and the UK; ordering information is available by contacting the temple, or copies can be bought from the temple shop in Sweden. The site notes quantities are limited. No prices are given on the page, so treat cost and availability as something to confirm directly rather than assume.

What the site does not tell you

The page evidence covers the temple's identity, deities, daily schedule, and book announcements. It does not state admission prices (the open-house invitation says everything is free, but that applies to the programme described, not to shop purchases), travel directions, or accommodation. For altar timings, festival dates, and ordering, the site points to separate pages or direct contact — those are the next places to look before a visit.
