Namaskaram,

Happy New Year to all the members and devotees!

This column which was started in 2018 was suspended after the publication of the first article for conduct of elections and other related matters. Since then, we have had elections in the Temple and as President of the Malibu Hindu Temple, I’m very delighted to resume the publication of the articles effective March 2023. In the meanwhile, I would like to summarize some of the achievements in all of the areas. We will publish a more detailed description of each of these items in the near future.

Nurturing Spirituality, Embracing Unity.

I recently visited the temple in Malibu and was thoroughly impressed by the beautiful architecture... and serene atmosphere. It took me about 45min drive from LA.The option for Archanai ranging from $5 to $35 allowed for a personalized experience.However, the additional cost for food at the food corner was a bit unexpected, similar to a restaurant setup, but it didn't detract from the overall experience.I look forward to returning for prayers and further exploring this beautiful temple. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful and spiritual retreat. 🛕🙏🏽read more

Loved this south Indian style Hindu temple near LA. There were multiple shrines for different gods... and goddess in Hindu culture. The canteen needs a major upgrade for infrastructure and food taste. What I found a bit odf is that the Vaishnav shrines and Shaiva shrines are built sepatarely with saparate entrances and exit.read more

We visited the temple on Jan 1. Though it was crowded but it was well managed by the volunteers.... There is no ticket to visit the temple. Infact by the time (around 1230 pm) we reached the temple on Jan 1, it was supposed to be closed (during regular days) but we were lucky and the temple was open to general public. The road to temple is a single lane road and it was crowded due to Jan 1 visitors and we had to face almost 30 min wait on the road and then before the main sanctum we also had to wait but it was worth the wait. Volunteers managed the crowd and made sure main sanctum is not crowded.read more

Surprised to find such a beautiful Hindu temple in the Malibu mountains. Was driving up to LA and... decided to make a detour and stop by to pay respect. Not Hindu myself but very a tuned of its traditions and beliefs. Reminds me of the temples I visited in South Asia a few decades ago. Worth the stop for sure. Seem the Hindu community im the area is quite engaged as they have published lots of events, etc.read more

My visit to the Malibu Hindu Temple was truly memorable. The scenic drive to get there was a treat,... and the staff and fellow visitors were friendly and helpful. The temple's architecture is great, and I enjoyed exploring the various altars. Coming from Toronto, Canada, I appreciated the unique blend of familiarity and novelty. I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary for a memorable experience.read more

Great place to pray. Guests can sit a meditate, give offerings to gods, or enjoy a live... performance. We went on a Saturday and watched a traditional dance. As a non Hindu, I definitely felt the spiritual vibe of this place. Not really a place to go ham on Instagram. It's a place to be felt.read more
