Very well organized. Had a great experience. Special mention to Pradeep garu. Thank you!
Pradeep Archakam has initiated this wonderful initiative that not only provides a Great spiritual experience but also brings the community together by way of various festivals(Navarathri/Golu for example) and other public performances(Hari Katha). By Rama, Sita, Lakshmanan and Hanuman's grace the temple should continue to grow and offer the greater San Jose their blessings. ????
Very serene, quiet temple situated in one of the commercial buildings. We very much enjoyed our visit.
Beautiful temple with serene and positive atmosphere.
We got Mundan ceremony done by Pradeep pandit Ji at the temple. He was very calm and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the Pooja with him. Would highly recommend anyone to pandit Ji.
