Srila Prabhupada taught the principles of yukta vairagya: not to
reject something of this world as material, but suitably engage
everything in the service of the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna for the
upliftment of humanity. These principles of yukta vairagya that he
taught underlie the Krishna Lila Park project, where modern technology,
commerce and management practices converge for the execution of this
mega endeavour in the service of God and mankind.
The
purpose of Krishna Lila Park is to present, preserve and promote the
cultural heritage of India as described in the ancient Indian classics,
to the contemporary society, in an interesting and captivating
presentation. We want to impress upon the younger generation the
glorious pastimes of our vedic heroes like Krishna, Rama and Hanuman.
Today, our children’s minds are obsessed with Superman, Spiderman and
such other characters and legends coming from the West. We want to
introduce the great characters of our Indian epics and instill in the
minds of our children the deep values they represent. This is an
unprecedented and historical project being attempted for the first time
in our country.
The
narrative strategy used known as technology assisted multi-sensory
immersive and experiential story telling. This is the kind of
communication strategy that the worlds best Theme Parks like Disney
World, EPCOT and Universal Studios use.Photos&News Source: ISKCON, Bangalore
