It's a place where you can step away from the noise of daily life, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. I always leave feeling more grounded and grateful than when I arrived.

Many also speak multiple Indian languages catering to all devotees. However, my recent visit after the new year left me with a bad impression due to the way one priest behaved. He was trying to put the poles to streamline people which is understandable. The temple was not crowded but given it was post new year there was a constant flow of devotees. This priest was yelling and screaming, completely disrespectful to the devotees. He was so loud that we could not even hear the priests chanting of the Archana. He completely ruined the sanctity of the temple. The same task could have been done in many different ways, without having to yell and scream and spoil the devotees experience. I hope this is not something that will be repeated, for I would love to go back for a peaceful visit.

    The temple itself is very well maintained, beautiful, and peaceful in its design, and it is clear…read morethat a lot of care goes into the space. Unfortunately, the overall experience is often disrupted by behavior that simply does not belong in a place of worship. Many of the priests regularly sit on the steps with their backs to the deity, blocking the view of the Gods, engaging in loud conversations with people they know, which is extremely distracting for devotees. On multiple occasions, some priests have been observed taking personal phone calls while seated there, with their backs turned, engaging in casual video and phone conversations with friends or family. A few times, I have even noticed a priest sitting on the steps near the Shiva lingam, absent-mindedly picking his nose, surrounded by devotees deep in prayer. This is not about expecting perfection, but about maintaining basic decorum and respect in a sacred space. Additionally, several families allow their children to run freely inside the temple, treating it like a play area. Many people come here seeking silence, focus, and comfort, often while dealing with difficult personal situations or serious health issues. The constant noise and uncontrolled movement take away from that experience. I genuinely hope the management addresses these concerns by setting clear expectations for priest conduct within the sanctum and reminding families to supervise their children. With better enforcement of basic decorum, this temple could offer a far more meaningful and peaceful experience for everyone.
