Shrinathji
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shrinathji is a deity form of Krishna, situated in the temple town of Nathdwara near Udaipur in Rajasthan. Krishna in his form of Sri Nathji is also worshipped throughout India by followers of Bhakti Yoga and the Vaishnava traditions, especially within Gujarat. The town of Nathdwara itself is often referred to as 'Shrinathji', after the famous deity.
[edit] The temple
The priests and servants within the temple are not paid any cash salaries, receiving simply prasad as a reward for their duties. Often this prasad is given or sold to guests who visit the temple for darshan.
