Balagokulam

Hindu Temple of Central Indiana

What is Balagokulam? 

Gokulam is where Krishna’s magical childhood days were spent. It was here that his divine powers came to light.

Balagokulam is a program for children to discover and manifest that divinity. It enables Hindu children in the United States to form their positive Hindu-American identity, to appreciate their cultural roots and to learn Hindu values. These crucial and essential developments are accomplished through Games, Yoga, Stories, Bhajans, Shlokas, Arts and Crafts. Balagokulam and Chetana (Youth) programs are of 90 minutes duration that includes various activities related to physical, intellectual and spiritual needs.

The program is taught by a dedicated team of teachers, most of them who either had their children go through the same program, or who currently have their children enrolled in the program. With the blessings of Pujya Swami Dayananda Saraswati, the Purna Vidya (Vedic Heritage Teaching Program) is being followed in the curriculum.
