The Annakshetra
Annakshetra - Shrinathji Ki Rasoi, is our compassionate initiative that aims to alleviate hunger and nourish those in need. The Annakshetra will have a dining hall and a kitchen with state-of-the-art equipments. Every day we aim to provide meals to 400 Swamins, Brahmacharins, scholars and guests absolutely free of cost.
We will provide nutritious meals to individuals from all walks of life, regardless of their socio-economic background. Our sole purpose of serving humanity and promoting the value of food security.
By o¬ffering wholesome meals in a dignified setting, annakshetras address the immediate need for sustenance and foster a sense of inclusivity, empathy, and solidarity within the community. This will be a testament to the belief that no one should go to bed hungry, and through their selfless eff¬orts, they contribute to building a more compassionate and equitable society.
Along with Annakshetra, we plan to build development of various infrastructural facilities, including accommodation for Swamins, Brahmacharins, scholars and guests, conference rooms, auditorium and more.

The Temple
The Temple Devnath Maharaj, this was the Vitthal mandir where he gave the last discourse and saw lord Vitthal. Devnath Maharaj was great saint from Vidharbha, in Maharashtra India. It was here in Vitthal Mandir at Kashi, where Eknath Maharaj wrote Eknathi bhagwat. We propose to renovate and restore this temple to its past glory. The temple complex will be built as an exact replica of Pandharpur Temple. Pandharpur is a major pilgrimage site for Hindus located in the town of Pandharpur, Maharashtra, India. The main temple, also known as the Vitthal-Rukmini temple, is dedicated to the deity Vitthal, a form of Lord Vishnu, and Rukmini. The temple complex covers an area of approximately ten thousand square feet and includes several other smaller temples and its located near River Ganga. The complex will feature beautiful architecture, with intricate carvings and sculptures adorning the walls and pillars.
The temple is especially popular among devotees during the festival of Ashadi Ekadashi, which falls in the month of June or July each year, when millions of pilgrims gather to o¬ffer their prayers and seek blessings from Lord Vitthal. This is almost 400 years old structure, owned by the Potnis family from Pune. We are writing to you today on behalf of our community to request your support in building a new temple. Our community has been growing rapidly, and we are in need of a dedicated space to come together for prayer, meditation, and celebration.
As you may know, building a temple is a significant undertaking, and we cannot do it alone. We are seeking sponsors like you who share our vision of creating a sacred space for our community. Your generous contribution will help us to finance the construction of the temple and to create a space that reflects our values and beliefs. By supporting our temple project, you will be contributing to the spiritual well-being of our community and helping to create a legacy that will endure for generations to come. We are committed to transparency and accountability, and we will provide regular updates on the progress of the project, as well as detailed financial reports. We believe that our temple project represents an excellent opportunity for you to make a meaningful impact in our community.
The Eknath Bhavan
Accommodation
The Eknath Bhavan restoration project (aka Nana Fadnavis Wada) is a massive undertaking, requiring the input of experts in a range of di erent fields. Architects, builders, and cra tsmen will come together to work on the project, which will involve carefull dismantling the structure, preserving the original materials, and then reassembling it using modern techniques and materials.
The restoration project will take almost a year to complete, but in the end, the results will be truly remarkable. The heritage structure will look as
grand, just as it had three hundred years ago, and it will once again be a beautiful gathering place that could be used for community events, festivals, and celebrations. This is located at the banks of river ganga, just about 700 meters from Kashi Vishwanath Temple and 300 meters from Kaal
Bhairav Temple and next to Bindu Madhav Temple.

a banquet hall, building ameneties will also include a cafeteria, specialty kitchens for international piligrims and local excursion to explore Kashi.
The restored heritage structure will become a source of pride for the Kashi, and we are expecting people to come from far and wide to o er prayers
to Baba Vishwanath and stay in the Eknath Bhavan complex comfortably. The Bhavan will provide adordable stay to piligrims. Our goal is to create
a welcoming and inclusive community that will over a safe and supportive environment for piligrims.

The Corridor
The Kashi Vishwanath Temple corridor is a recently constructed pathway that connects the temple to the nearby Ganga Ghats (banks of the River Ganges). The corridor is a part of the ambitious Kashi Vishwanath Corridor project, which aims to provide better facilities and infrastructure to the pilgrims visiting the temple and the city of Varanasi. The corridor is around 50 feet wide and 350 meters long, and it features beautiful arches, domes, and intricate carvings. The pathway is designed in a way that it can accommodate a large number of devotees, and it also has separate sections for pedestrians and vehicles. The Kashi Vishwanath Temple corridor is not only a convenience for the pilgrims but is also a major tourist attraction. The pathway provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the city of Varanasi, and it also off¬ers a stunning view of the Ganges river and the ghats. The construction of the Kashi Vishwanath Temple corridor is a part of the larger Kashi Vishwanath Corridor project, which also includes the construction of several other facilities such as public toilets, changing rooms, and waiting halls for the pilgrims. The project aims to enhance the overall experience of the pilgrims and to promote tourism in the region.
