Pagal Baba Temple
Of the many roads into Vrindavan, one of these takes the traveler past the towering temple of Pagal Baba. This gleaming white temple has eleven stories in all and is one of the more modern pieces of architecture. The temple's creator, Pagal Baba, died only a few years ago. His infectious spirit lingers on in the playfulness of his disciples who are ready to welcome one into the temple interior. It is possible to ascend to the ninth storey, if the monsoon heat and one's constitution allow. From here there is a good view over the surrounding area but at the ground floor of the temple one can see something of more peculiar interest. Around the sides of the foundations, there is an exhibition of puppets, some mechanized to move occasionally making simple gestures; they depict scenes from two great epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, the latter being the record of Krishna's time.
Bankey Bihari Temple
One of the most important and vibrant temples is the Bankey Bihari, reached down an alleyway where one can expect to see devotees engaged in simple acts of worship such as ecstatically clashing small cymbals together as they move in time to ancient rhythms. Govind Dev Temple Vrindavan
The Bankey Bihari Temple houses a sacred image of Krishna known as Thakur Ji, which shows Krishna with an almost blackened body. Devotees enter the shrine room carrying garlands of flower petals and offer them to the spirit of the statue as Brahmins move back and forth in front of the icon, occasionally drawing across the curtain to shroud the object of devotion for a moment. The curtain is then drawn back and a great cry of Thakur Ji ! issue forth from the crowd.
Govind Dev Temple
The Govind Dev Temple was built in 1590 by Raja Man Singh and now lies empty, its' upper layers having been torn down during the time of the Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb, who doubtless considered the place one of idolatry. A line of beggars sit outside and call for alms as one approaches while monkeys play amidst the sculptured stonework of it's interior. However, what remains of this red sandstone edifice is impressive. A few devotees take shelter here but if one takes the time to examine the art work and in particular, the vaulted ceiling, one may experience a little of the devotional fire that inspired it in the first place.
ISKON Temple
One of the most impressive temples is another new construction, the ISKON temple, which was built with funds coming from devotees overseas. Here, the marble buildings almost glow with a light of their own and there is evidence of intricate carving. It owes its existence to Swami Prabhupada, a Hindu devotee born in Bengal in 1896. Today, ISKON is a worldwide movement with followers from many different ethnic backgrounds.
Other Temples
There are also other temples to visit here such as the towering Rangaji Temple. If you are only visiting for the day, you may not have time to see them all for they close during the noonday hours. In fact, the majority of the estimated 4,000 temples cannot be visited for they are often private homes, which, in some cases, have been inhabited for generations.
