The temple is dedicated to Hindu deities Radha Krishna and propagates monotheism as mentioned in Chandogya Upanishad.
This stone temple is constructed as per traditional Shilpa shastras (designs as mentioned in scriptures) in the Dravidian style of architecture.
The design and aesthetics, including the seven doors to the sanctum, are inspired by the Sri Venkateshwara Swamy Temple in Tirumala.
This project was conceived and executed by the devotees of ISKCON Bangalore, in pursuance of Srila Prabhupada's desire to build a grand temple like Tirumala, on his 125th birth anniversary.
A separate shrine has been constructed for Srila Prabhupada, where his Achala Shila Murti, a black stone deity, is installed.
