by Karunamayi Cox

Posted April 16, 2009


A very sweet devotee here in Vancouver, BC, Mayapura-Lila devi, is placing her land in Saranagati, BC, up for sale. Known as the "desert of BC", this area has a wonderfully expression of the 4 seasons. So I am forwarding along the specs on the land and house in hopes to assist her in finding the perfect new-found owner.


  • 1300sq foot house in south end of valley
  • 4 bedrooms (one very large rec room, perhaps?) and a loft
  • *VERY* bright house, lots of windows
  • Large kitchen and living room
  • tongue and groove finishing
  • wood stove
  • hot water on demand
  • large propane tank and stove
  • full bathroom facilities, flushing toilet
  • wood shed
  • 2 room root cellar
  • area to fix car
  • beautiful view of lake and "Govardhan Hill"
  • New water line (will be completed this summer, when the snow has melted)
  • Original Brahmacari asrama for the Valley
  • barn with the valley's cows and horses across the lane


Asking 55K CAD *AS IS*

The acreage is enveloped by 3500 acres of beautiful forests, valleys, lakes, a Gov't cared-for road and a strong, mature developing vaisnava community. Within the Valley is a publicly funded school headed by our very own Bhaktin Luiza. The school has a powerful reputation for it's academics and successful graduates.

Saranagati is located a short 3.5 hour drive from Vancouver Temple in British Columbia. The possibilities for preaching are plentiful in the nearby town of Kamloops BC which is home to many yoga centers and Thompson Rivers University. The opportunity for cow protection is also available for the right devotees.


Regular festivals are an enthusiastic example of the rich community spirit found in Saranagati. Classical Indian dance performances by the youth, weekly bhajan night, CC class, Sunday feast and daily morning program. Rathayatra for Lord Jagannath is an ecstatic festival annually arranged hailing guests from around the globe and as close as Vancouver and Seattle. There is a summer camp held by local devotees for Vaisnava youth which has been featured in the BTG.
