Barsana Dham is the most beautiful among the temples I visited so far. It is located in a 200-acre complex, with trees, gardens, and a peach farm. Also, drive to this temple is very scenic; winding rural roads through small rolling hills. Though we don't frequent this temple, I enjoyed Sunday spiritual discourses (presented by folks other than the Swamiji!) the few times I visited.
I guess we don't want to be outdone by Catholic Priests.
I was surprised to watch on TV today that the founder was arrested for his indecency with children in the past. This is not the first allegation I heard on Barsana Dham. In the recent past, Kripalu Maharaj was charged with rape in Trinidad, and then I came across My Life in Cult. In spite of all the nice people at this temple, I am not too sure of what to think of it any more.
