About:
This temple has been built 35 years ago.Once inside the temple one would feel like we are in India.For those who are religiously inclined will surely like it.If you will have to go this place from NJ the travel time to this place in Queens will take along time-By train at least 3 hours.By car 2hrs.Success in all religious acts and mundane affairs being the goal of human beings, Hindus seek Lord Ganeša's blessings by first worshipping Him before every religious function / ceremony. Thus everything begins with worship of Lord Ganeša, the first son of Lord Šiva (Matter) and Universal Mother Goddess Pãrvati - Shakti (energy).
Elephant-headed and with a human form, He represents universality of creation, said to begin with the first sound "Om" or "Pranava" from which all veda mantras (holy hymns) originate. Lord Ganeša is the presiding deity of our Temple. Continuous religious services and worship of consecrated vigrahas (idols) with devotion bestow divine vibrations in Temples. The omnipotent God dwells in each one of us and we have only to delve deeply within to reach Him and relate to Him.
