Welcome to

MATHURA DESH
“ The highest perfectional project of
philanthropic activities is to engage
every one
in the act of preaching Bhakti-yoga all
over the world because that alone can
save the people from the control of
maya , or the material nature
represented by kala, karma and guna
…… . The Bhagvad Gita confirms this
definitely”.
