When to go

About

• Chidanand Shetty★★★★☆8 months ago

  A very scared and culturally intact Hindu temple with Southern traditions and pooja rituals . The staff is very sincere and simple to deal with. They seem true to their profession and faith. Some amount of motivation and charity will help to keep it up and running. May Lord Ganapati bless all. 🙏

  Similar to other low-rated reviews, I also had an unpleasant encounter with the manager/owner. Avoid him at all costs if you want a divine and calm experience. Here are some of the issues I noted at this religious institute: 1. Priests openly ask for money — and on top of that, they also request donations for the kitchen staff. 2. The manager/owner is consistently unpleasant. Poor people skills, and it’s unclear how he ended up in such a role. 3. Stingy with donated food. Unlike other temples where food is generously provided or left out for visitors, this place hides it in the kitchen. Our group of 6 received only 1 parcel of food. 4. No improvements in over 10 years. I wonder where all the donations are going. Do the math — for a divine and peaceful experience, where your donations are actually put to good use, I recommend you go elsewhere.

  Fully divine place. Under one roof many temples 🛕. Very good place to do meditate. For archanai get the ticket 🎟. For breaking coconut 🥥 straight infornt the temple square box. At end get the prasadam package in the thermacol pack of sambar shadham. At the entrance we have purified drinking water and footwear stand. Plenty of car parking slots available. Very much near from Bus 🚌 stop 🚏

  Today we visited the temple and experienced extremely rude and unprofessional behavior from the staff. They raised their voices and spoke disrespectfully about our clothing without properly understanding or explaining the dress code. This behavior completely ruined our visit. Additionally, people were recorded on video without individual consent, which is a serious privacy concern. If this matter is not addressed immediately and appropriately, we will proceed with a formal complaint and pursue legal action. Such conduct is unacceptable in a religious place and goes against the values of respect and peace a temple should uphold.

  I had a truly uplifting experience visiting Sri Katpaga Vinayagar Hindu Temple. The temple is beautifully maintained, with serene surroundings that immediately create a sense of peace and devotion. The architecture and intricate details reflect great care and reverence, making it not only a place of worship but also a cultural treasure. The priests and volunteers are welcoming and knowledgeable, guiding visitors through rituals with patience and respect. The temple also organizes regular events, festivals, and community programs that foster a strong sense of togetherness and spiritual growth. Facilities are well-kept, with ample space for prayer, meditation, and gatherings. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, allowing one to disconnect from daily distractions and focus on spiritual reflection. I highly recommend Sri Katpaga Vinayagar Hindu Temple to anyone seeking a place of worship, cultural connection, or simply a peaceful environment to reflect and recharge.

  My only issue with this temple is rude staff. And they also forced me to remove jacket during winters. I don't even think the worst part is them asking to remove jacket but them speaking rudely. Also I see other comments where they justify their rude behavior. There is something called manners and how to talk to a person especially in temples. Even if a person is wrong unintentionally, there is a way to address it in a civic manner.

  A divine place. Good place to meditate after the poojai. Their Prasadam packed in thermacol packs are always a speciality. Love their sambar sadham Prasadam 😍. …

  Temple suppose to be open at 7 am. Unfortunately I have to knock at the door for good few minutes to enter just before morning pooja(7.25). Temple wasn’t clean and took awhile to get ticket for archana. Gone twice in the last one month the standard has gone down. Disappointed.
