About:

Sri Somesvara is a Vedic Shiva temple nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, where beauty and silence abound. Our Pandit Prasad is deeply devoted to maintaining the purity of Vedic tradition and making every ceremony a personal experience. Come and enjoy the beauty, power, and depth of Sri Somesvara!

To maintain a higher vibration at Sri Somesvara, funds are being handled in a way that adheres to Vedic guidelines. According to Vedic tradition, it is not proper to pay for ceremonies. Therefore, all contributions will go toward Temple supplies, Temple upkeep, Pandit's family, and other Temple expenses. To acknowledge your contribution, your name will be read during the ceremony you select and you will receive the many blessings and benefits bestowed upon a supporter of the Temple.

Contributing to a greater cause rather than focusing on the small self (personality desires) will bring bigger blessings. It will also bring more awareness of God within and more consciousness of the greater good. This will give a boost to each and every devotee. We invite you to feel the difference of a Vedic Temple.You can purchase a variety of gift items and meditation supplies when you visit. We are unable to provide these for online purchase at this time, but you can phone us if you would like to have any of these items sent to you.
