The standard temple schedule begins very early in the morning, at 4:30 am. The first worship service is called Mangal Arotik (mangal=auspicious arotik=worship). Spiritual life is very successful when one gets up early and starts off the day right. Srila Prabhupada said that all temple devotees must attend Mangal Arotik. If it is not possible to go to a temple and you would like to begin at home, this page should give you a good start.
