Bhakti Mandir

Bhakti Mandir, Hindu temple in Pratapgarh district, India

Bhakti Mandir is a Hindu temple at Kripalu Dham Mangarh, Kunda, in Pratapgarh district, Uttar Pradesh, on the northern bank of the Ganga. Its 105-foot tower rises to a gold flag, and the exterior is pink stone with carved sandstone walls; the 32 doors, the shrines on both floors and the verandah ceilings are Makrana marble. A wide stone stairway with metal handrails leads up to the platform.

The foundation stone was laid on 26 October 1996 at the birthplace of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, and the temple was inaugurated in November 2005. It is maintained by the Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat. In March 2021 the Guru Dham Mandir was inaugurated nearby.

The name means "Temple of Devotion". The ground floor holds life-sized Radha Krishna deities ringed by the Ashta Mahasakhis, with Sita Ram, Radha Rani and Krishna Balram on the first floor. Janmashtami and Radhashtami draw hundreds of thousands of devotees.

The temple stands on the northern bank of the Ganga at Kripalu Dham Mangarh, near Kunda in Pratapgarh district. It has three doors, one on each of three sides, and a wide flight of pale stone steps with metal handrails leads up to the raised platform at its base. The Bhakti Bhavan, the domed sadhana hall beside the main temple, seats thousands of devotees for prayer, chanting and meditation.

The temple stands on the spot where Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj was born, and its foundation stone was laid on 26 October 1996. Its 105-foot height is measured from the ground to the gold flag fixed on the tower's finial.
