About the Temple

The temple started out as a vision by His Holiness Acharya Maharaj Shree TejendraPrasadji Maharaj and shared his desire to one day set up a temple for devotees, not only from the Swaminarayan fellowship, but anyone who desired a better spiritual future. The vision has become a reality, through endless hard work, dedication, and selfless pride by devotees in Sydney to ensure His Holiness’s vision becomes a reality.

The temple will bring devotees from all walks of life to experience the richness of Hinduism, and the vastness of the Swaminarayan faith, with all its tradition. The temple will be a place for the young to ensure their cultural heritage is upheld through different activities.
