3 POINTS ON GOKULAM




 1. This Divya Kshetram (Gokulam) is located around 12 kms from Mathura. Gokulam is associated with the childhood of Krishna.

2. The original temple as sung by saints does not exist now. The temple presumably built later, on the banks of yamuna river, has the presiding deity Mohana Krishna, with yashoda and balarama in the sanctum.

3. The Goddess is Rukmini, sathyabhama. The sacred water is Yamuna Nadhi and the sanctum sanctorum is Hemakooda Vimanam.
