Panditji came to our house for Satyanarayan pooja. He initially sent me a concise list of things needed for the pooja.

He was well organized and cleaned up things used and discarded after the pooja.Once pooja done, he was kind enough to offer taking pictures of our family. Overall a very satisfying experience. We would definitely have him over in the future for other such occasions.

Pundit was amazing at leading our Hindu wedding ceremony. He was friendly, personal, and very engaging. Our guests could not stop talking about him and how well he led us through the ceremony and explained and related each custom to our modern way of thinking and our first ceremony (Catholic). We were most surprised that he called and collaborated with the Catholic Priest to make our fusion dream come true early on in the process. We really enjoyed that he kept some traditional customs, but added modern values and explanations that were relevant to how we and our family view life. He was very engaging to both sides of the family and had a great sense of humor!! Honestly, we are BEYOND pleased with his service! He was punctual, and replied to the many questions I had (myself being the bride from outside the culture) during the wedding process. Amazing service, and we are so grateful that he was our Pundit Ji for such auspicious day. Also, my in-laws are from Fiji, and we had no idea he was Fijian - it was the cherry on top that day!!! Thank you Pundit Ji.

Priest Pradeep was amazing to have at our wedding! We're from different parts of India but we communicated with him about what traditions we wanted to include and he made sure to include what we wanted and make each of the steps easy. He made the process easy for us and our family, and made it very enjoyable for our guests as well. All our guests said how much they loved our ceremony and our priest, and I find that to be a huge accomplishment for a ceremony that took about an hour! He also had very unique things for each process, and I loved how he had us do the seven steps and had our ring exchange at the front. We're so glad we had Priest Pradeep at our wedding, and it wouldn't have been the same without him.

We had a great experience with Panditji who performed grih pravesh puja for us. We had to change the timing almost three times but he always provided us with alternate date/time and made himself available. He clearly communicated us about puja procedure, things to buy etc. and also arrived on time. The puja was done with utmost perfection with full detail and no hurry. Our parents who attended the puja on video call were very satisfied with the puja.

I'm the father of the bride and we used Punditji for my daughters destination wedding at Terranea in late May. I can't be more thankful or pleased with Punditji!! Hr was by far the BEST decision made for the wedding. He was an absolute pleasure, took time up front to understand what both families expected from the ceremony, he was punctual and really took time to explain the ceremony at kids level!! My daughter is Punjabi and the groom side is gujrati - both kids were attentive through out and actually enjoyed the ceremony!! He has a sense of humor and I would highly recommend Punditji if you are looking for not your run of mill priest who will recite bunch of mantras and kids could care less then pls do get services from Pundit Balram - money well spent and he has helped to create lifetime memories for our family!!

He conducted our baby shower ceremony and did an absolutely fantastic job, he explained the process every step of the way and made the guests feel involved and included in the ceremony. He also has a good sense of humor. Overall, would highly recommend his services and would definitely be going back to him in the future.

Namasthe Pandit ji, the wedding went on really well! Panditji was very kind and understanding, we were very happy to have him lead the ceremony! Our parents were also very happy! :):) He was patient and understood some requests our parents had made sure everything went on smoothly. :D. I'll definitely recommend to all my friends and family who get married around the area. Thank you.

Panditji officiated our wedding a few weeks ago and helped us along the way with everything. He meticulously gave us a list of everything we needed so there would not be any last minute issues. The ceremony itself which he performed was very thorough and enjoyable. At every step he made sure the why of it in a very easy to grasp and entertaining way. He was also naturally interacting with our guests during the ceremony making it very enjoyable for them too. Would definitely recommend his services to our friends.

Excellent Service. Pradeep Garu is very patient and very thorough in the puja. I would definitely go back again for any other pujas and I will recommend others as well.

Pandit Pradeep is the best priest in the Bay Area. I have worked with several priests and none of them match his quality. He does not cut corners. In addition, he explains the rituals well and also directs the other vendors (e.g., Photography). This is my first experience with this priest and we plan to keep him as our permanent priest.

Panditji helped us in conducting a vaastu puja and deity installation. He is very well versed in the process. He was punctual, nice to deal with and practical. I would highly recommend his services.

This is a long overdue review for panditji Pradeep. We had a interracial wedding (Hindu/Mexican) back in May of 2021 during the middle of pandemic. Panditji came to our wedding site on time and performed all the rituals to our satisfaction. We were all extremely happy as panditji went into detail on what each of the ritual meant and had papers printed out for folks not familiar with Hindu rituals. If we have any other ritual to be performed in the near future, we will be more than happy to get panditji's help again. Thank again!

Thank you! Everyone really enjoyed the ceremony and thought you were really informative. We’re really happy with it. Thanks again!

Anand Ji- thank you for taking the time to do the Puja for us. The teachings are invaluable to the kids, and I appreciate how you take the time to explain things to them. Thank you again.

Dear Panditji- thank you for a wonderful ceremony, the most important part of the festivities. The newly minted husband and wife are on their way to minimoon. And we are finally going to take some time to relax. In gratitude- Sunil & Seema

Thank you so much for arranging and managing everything :). We had a great experience with your team and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

We really enjoyed the entire experience of videopuja conducted by your Gujarathi Panditji and will recommend to our friends.

Very well done pooja. We were completely satisfied.

Ramaswamy garu organized our Diwali puja exceptionally well; The priest performed the service via zoom and was well versed in the rituals. We appreciated his patience as he walked us through the Puja. Friends and family members were able to zoom in and watch the puja too. We were impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and dedication and we hope to be able to avail of their services soon

Hi, Everything was done really great. We absolutely loved this experience. Vidhate Ji made it really easy for us even though it was a virtual pooja. And it made us feel like it was an in person pooja. Also, we really enjoyed it as our family and friends were able to join as well. Even though it was our first time doing this pooja's, Vidhate Ji made it really easy for us and was very patient with us.

This is our second virtual puja with Priest4u; we are repeat customers and would highly recommend this service. Pandit Vidhateji conducted our Puja, he was very thorough and explained every aspect of the ceremony. Instructions on how to prepare for the actual puja were shared in advance and the team is always available to answer questions. Our friends and family were able to join via Zoom as well. All in all - 5 stars!

I found Pradeep ji via sulekha.com and called him to inquire about our new house warming pooja availability. He was super polite, very accommodating on phone, and scheduled the pooja at a time convenient to everyone along with the right mahurtha. He provided a detailed pooja items list a week before house warming day. Very punctual, knowledgeable, and such clear pronunciation of the shlokas/mantras. He explained the inner meaning of all the traditions, ceremonies including the homa event. Created a very positive aura in the entire home with his dedication, humor, and knowledge. All of our guests were impressed and taken away by his charm. My parents and family who attended the ceremony virtually were able to thoroughly enjoy the whole event and is a testimony to Pradeep ji's execution of the house warming pooja event. I would highly recommend Pradeep ji for any event.

We recently had Pradeep ji perform our housewarming pooja. I am from the north of India and my husband is from the south. Pradeep ji was very knowledgeable about both our traditions. He was very punctual, patient, and performed the ceremonies very well. His wit and humour created an atmosphere of joy in our new home. The last few weeks had been stressful and the pooja calmed us down. We were very happy with the experience! Our families from India joined virtually and enjoyed the pooja too.

Pandit Pradeep Madhyastha performed my son’s Ayushhomam in 2018 and we were very satisfied and happy with his service. When we bought a new house in June 2021, we could not think of anyone other than Pradeep ji for performing our Gruhapravesham. He agreed to do it even though it was 2hrs drive from where he lives. He keeps the environment very friendly, explains significance of each and every rituals in detail so that we don’t feel like blindly following instructions. Always with a welcoming smile which make us feel comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him for any of our future pooja needs.

Pandit ji performed the grihpravesh pooja at our new home in San Jose, California. He is very knowledgeable and explained every mantras and poojas in detail. Our family back home was also impressed. He also provided a detailed list of items needed for the pooja and the entire setup was beautiful. We highly recommend him!

Pradeepji helped us with our griha pravesh puja in Fremont. It was a thoroughly enjoyable ceremony with a great mix of rituals (with explanations for alll of them) and light hearted humor. Our parents joining virtually also had a great time. Pradeepji was very methodical and organized with his list of items before the puja and we had no trouble procuring them at all. I would highly recommend him for all your puja needs.

Pradeep Ji is one of the best priest I found in the Bay Area. He does grih pravesh pooja for me. It was very satisfying experience.

Pandit Pradeepji performed our grahapravesh puja in Sunnyvale and we had an amazing experience. He was very easy to contact, gave us list of all items needed to help prepare for the puja and brought some items himself when we couldn't find them. He found a good mahurat for us and started right on time. The puja was setup beautifully and performed very authentically to the point that when our families back in India saw the videos they were so impressed and commented that it's was so much better other pujas they've seen. He was very friendly and we had the best experience. Highly recommend him.

We utilized Pradeep Ji for our wedding in NJ and his services were amazing and would always recommend him to anyone requiring his services. We had a fusion wedding and he did an amazing job incorporating both groom and bride side traditions!

Priest Pradeep performed SatyaNarayana Pooja at our house . He has very good knowledge of scriptures and he explained the meaning of Slokas very well . Very nice person !! Highly recommend him for any kind of pooja

I had house warming puja done at my home in Bay area by Pandit Ji. Puja done by him was excellent. He was on time and performed the puja very well. He has thorough knowledge of all the mantras. I would call him again for more puja ceremony and highly recommend him to everyone.

Pandit Pradeep Madyastha was very easy to work with, he was flexible with our needs. He performed housewarming ceremony for our new home, and it was a very positive experience, he helped us from preparation to the end of the pooja. We did not know much about rituals, so he explained everything thoroughly. My parents and In-laws joined us virtually from India, and they were very impressed with the ceremony. I would highly recommend him.

Pradeep garu recently performed Gruha pravesha ceremony for our new home. He was very helpful answering all our questions and he sent us the list of items that needs to be there. We forgot an important item and Pradeep garu was well prepared and he provided us the required item. The pooja itself was done very traditionally and we enjoyed our big day. We highly recommend Pradeep garu and will reach out to him again for future needs.

I'm glad we found Pundit Anand Balram ji to conduct our daughter's wedding ceremony, held recently in a picturesque outdoor setting in Palm Springs, CA. It turned out to be a beautiful wedding, further complemented by Pundit ji explaining the significance of every step in English, adding a touch of humor which made the ceremony entertaining, and his modern outlook. Thank you, Pundit ji, for being there to bless the young couple!

Pundit Anand Sharma is extremely knowledgeable and very good in explaining the mantras in English. The guests as well as the couple being married thoroughly enjoyed the wedding ceremony that was performed in professional and courteous manner with all the Hindu rites and rituals.

- Very flexible to our timing schedule and arrived on time - Has good knowledge and shared with us the details and reason of each pooja - Clearly gave a list of pooja items for us to bring. We forgot a couple of items, and luckily he had those items with him. - Very nice person. Would highly reccommend him

Pandit Pradeep Madhyastha recently performed our Gruhapravesha Pooja in Bay Area, California. He gave us a detailed list of items and instructed us very well about all the preparations to be made. He arrived timely on the day of the pooja and conducted the whole pooja in a very traditional and authentic manner. He is very knowledgeable and explained in detail the significance of each pooja that we performed. He is very friendly and we were very happy and pleased with the pooja. We look forward to inviting him over for all our future events.

I have seen Guru Pradeep ji performing multiple poojas and he is very professional. Very traditional and knowledgable. Explains each pooja ritual in detail if interested. He follows the authentic rituals and doesn't try to just finish up and accommodate multiple programs. Really appreciate his dedication and service to the community here in bay area. Will definitely go back to him for any future pooja needs as well.

Great Puja for Havan and Satya Narayana, with good explanations

Sri Pradeep did a fantastic job with the puja. He’s extremely patient, explains well, doesn’t rush. Very pleasant person. Would highly recommend him.

We recently bought a new house and chose Sri Pradeep to do our grihapravesh pooja because he was the most professional, accommodating and unassuming I spoke to. He was able to find the right muhurtam dates/times and also gave a clear list of pooja items to bring. Since we were still in-between homes, he was kind enough to accommodate our last minute request to bring all the required items himself. Sri Pradeep performed the poojas very diligently and patiently while keeping us feeling comfortable. He is very authentic and knowledgable and I definitely recommend Sri Pradeep for any pooja events.

We had Priest Pradeep Madhyasta for our house warming ceremony in Tracy. The pooja/ceremony was very timely and well done. We felt very good and want to have Priest Pradeep for all our future needs. He is one of the very best when it comes to procedures in the poojas - very thorough and very knowledgeable. We are very happy to have him visit and bless our new home.

Hi Punditji, Atul & I wanted to thank you again for a beautiful ceremony. We absolutely loved it and everyone loved your explanations and how modern you are. Thank you again. Hope to continue to be in touch with you.

Hello Pundit Anand!! Just wanted to say Thank you very much for marring Ahmad and I! My friends and family very much enjoyed the ceremony! They thought you were wonderful and entertaining. My relatives were very impressed by you and my little cousins & siblings finally understood what's said in an Indian wedding ceremony. I thank you for educating me the steps of an Indian ceremony/wedding. You made everything very simple and easy to understand. Thanks for everything. God Bless.

Sri Pradeep recently performed our grhapravesha in the california bay area. We did not have many essential items needed for the puja as we were still in the moving process, but he came prepared with all the critical items, and communicated clearly to us as to what additional things were needed on our end. The puja itself was conducted in a very authentic manner -- many of our family (who attended virtually due to COVID19) noted that it was done in a more traditional manner than they have seen elsewhere. We would suggest that clients who engage with Sri Pradeep should come with some baseline knowledge and experience performing pujas as things do move very quickly. Sri Pradeep was very professional and friendly. Overall we were very pleased and will definitely engage him in future functions.

Hello Pundit Sharma, Thank you so much! We and our guests enjoyed the ceremony and were in total Wow and aha moment how you conducted the whole ceremony. My East Coast friends requested for your contact. I will have Raj forward you some pictures. Thank you again.

Punditji thank you - everything was great. An auspicious start. There are some amazing photos that we will share with you! Thank you for everything. The guests did love it, as of course did Caroline and her family.

Pundit Anand Balram Sharma was our officiant at an Indian-American fusion wedding in June of 2019 at a winery in Fairfield, CA. He was recommended by Fujian-Indian friends and he expertly delivered a service that tied together our two cultures. We had one hour traditional Indian ceremony complete with English descriptions of processes, so everyone could participate in the moment. The groom’s parents, from the southern US, felt confident and comfortable participating in the ceremony. The priest made sure to provide English descriptions of all the ceremonial traditions and was light and at times, humorous in his delivery. Recommend to anyone looking for a priest, especially for a fusion, non-traditional Indian ceremony.

Pundit Anand Balram Sharma was an excellent choice for conducting the wedding for my daughter in Napa at Charles Krug Winery on May 18th, 2019. He explained the rituals lucidly in English and kept the audience engaged throughout the ceremony. He was professional and adhered to the timeline. We were extremely satisfied with his services and highly recommend him. Vidushi Soni

Hello Pandit Anand Balram ji, Thank you so very much for performing Kavita and Gus's wedding ceremony. I was not as organized as I thought and also things got delayed a little but you handled the situation and adjusted the ceremony accordingly. You did a wonderful job, kept the audience engaged. Everyone had a wonderful time and above all they enjoyed your sense of humor. Hopefully you will help me out in my future ceremonial needs. Thank you again Pushpa singh

Namaste Pandit Ji, Thank you very much for your presence at our kids wedding. We really appreciate your knowledgeable guidance at Neeraj and Kristen's wedding. The explanation of Kanya Daan, the importance of three C's and many similar little details made it memorable. Thank you for taking the time to perform the rituals. Thanks again and regards Kapila and Satish

Thank you for making our wedding and pre – wedding, ceremonies so wonderful. You treated me like your daughter and that connection gave so much meaning to our marriage. Our family and friends told us that the ceremony was most sincere and meaningful ceremony they have ever attended – Indian or otherwise. Most Indian ceremonies are full of rituals and people don’t pay attention towards it. But your powerful voice captured the audience with your humor, wisdom and advice and modern explanations of our ancient rituals. Everyone praised how amazing you are! We’re so honoured that you united our souls and gave us your blessings. With your guidance and blessings, we are excited to start this new chapter in our lives. We hope to stay in touch. My mom sends her thanks and pranam Love and Pranam.

I am giving this review on behalf of myself and Chetan. I wanted to sincerely say thank you SO MUCH for your amazing service for our wedding ceremony. I learned a lot, the audience was kept engaged, and it made the wedding ceremony very meaningful and memorable. I also really appreciate you helping us with the change by removing Kanyadaan. Those small changes are big milestones. It’s these changes that allow the younger generation of people getting married to still want to maintain connection with our roots and our culture. I am sure our wedding has made lots of other people want to and feel excited to have an Indian wedding ceremony. Thank YOU so much for that.

Thank you for officiating our ceremony on Sunday. We were honoured that you were such a big part of our special day, and we appreciate your time and efforts during this whole process. We have received many compliments on your behalf, Our guests seemed to really have enjoyed the ceremony, particularly your explanations and humor, You helped then to understand, and have some insight into, our Hindu culture, traditions , and the wedding ceremony. Thank you again,

I wanted to properly thank you for your incredible wedding service for Mohit and I on Sunday February 16th 2014 at Embassy Hotel Milpitas!!! I have to say that Mohit and I had SUCH a great time getting married, thanks to you! You kept the mood light and added humor that made everything so relaxed ? I was really happy and enjoying every single moment. We were also so happy to understand everything that was going on and know the meaning of getting married, while feeling relaxed all along the way. Thank you for this. Everyone praised you SO MUCH. They said you are the best Pandit they have ever seen or heard do marriage services. One Aunty in her 60 said that she has never in her life listened to Indian wedding service – not even her own – until she listened at my wedding. Everyone said that you added great humor and incredible explanations. This is the best thing we heard that everyone listened and understand thanks to your well explained descriptions. We could not be happier. I really wanted our guests to understand the Indian wedding ceremony and to know the traditions and meanings behind everything. Thanks to you, this all was able to happen. We really thank you so very much, and will recommend you to anyone who is having an Indian wedding!!! Thank you again, best wishes, take care.

Dear Panditji Sharma, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for providing the service at our daughter's wedding. The wedding ceremony went off very well. The guests enjoyed the service very much. Our guests came up to us and mentioned that you kept the ceremony flowing and lively with your jokes and also with the explanation of the rituals. Everyone walked away saying that they learned something new during the ceremony. Thank You so much.

Thank you for performing the wedding ceremony of my daughter Smita with Neil Your efforts were greatly appreciated and complemented by all who were present.

Mr Sharma was a true highlight of our Indo-Western wedding and delivered a perfect combination of Hindu traditions and fusion approach. He translated and explained every single step in English along with Sanskrit mantras, so everyone could understand why there is fire, or coconut, or 7 steps. He had some really unconventional words of wisdom and advice, which were very refreshing from the scripted boring officiant readings. And not the least important, he made everyone laugh not once at his jokes along the way during the shorter ceremony - we made it under an hour but I actually wish we stretched it longer. I would highly recommend Mr Sharma for a memorable Hindu or Hindu-Western ceremony that is meaningful, fun and enjoyable for the bride, groom, family and guests of all backgrounds.

We recently had Satyanarayana Vratam performed at our home in Livermore. Our folks were with us who perform the ritual almost every month and were happy with his service, so you can measure the authenticity. His turn around time was quick, knowledge was on par and prices were reasonable while compared to other officiants in the Bay area. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful puja done by a priest at my place . Temple was very professional in handling the appointment. Best wishes.

I Like this Temple. The Priest is very Friendly and so is the Committee and all work very hard. There a very Spiritual, Devotional feeling when we see Dieties in this Temple. Best for Family Sathyanarana Pujas and all Pujas and Celebrations.

During last five to seven years, It developed from shed to at par with livermore temple. All festivals, religious services are celebrated with at most adherence to the customs and ways we used to do like back home in India. Priests are very good. Hope to see this grow to be the best temple in USA with lot of divine vibrations.

At this place culture meets tradition. All Priests are very friendly and knowledgeable. Share

Peaceful Temple to pray for. Feels very energetic after visiting the temple every time

Wonderful place for peaceful prayers and meditation. The priests are knowledgeable....well maintained place.

Pt Pradeep did the Ganapathi, Navagraha, Mrutyunjaya homams and abhishekam for my mom's 70th birthday. Panditji was intensive, understanding and did all the homams according to convention. Profoundly suggest Pt Pradeep Archakam.

We were searching for good priest for house warming pooja and Pt Pradeep was alluded to us by a companion who had seen him performing pooja before. We were truly inspired with his truthfulness in ensuring every one of the ceremonies are performed to the best of our fulfillment. He was sufficiently quiet to connect with us in every one of the exercises he performed. We were truly content with our choice to pick him for our home warming and homa. We unquestionably would suggest him for any sort of Hindu customs.

Pradeep Archakam performed the Navarathri Devi Puja for our North Bay Hindu Center which is a non-benefit set up to construct a sanctuary in the North Bay. There were more than 150 individuals going to the capacity. He administered the kids' Saraswathi puja service and the Kumkum Archana for the women. Cleric Pradeep directed the kids' function pleasantly, clarifying the ceremonies unmistakably and calmly and every one of the participants eagerly took part all the while. He likewise directed the women Devi puja service pleasantly. With everything taken into account, Pradeep Archakam was reliable, directed the puja productively and well. We would profoundly prescribe Priest Pradeep for a religious administration - both individual and gathering.

Pradeep is an extremely dependable cleric. He's exceptionally learned and accommodating. He offered us some assistance with doing a house warming and Satyanarayana Vratham. His administrations are exceptionally thorough and his narrating is clear for everybody to get it.
