Support the temple
What is given here keeps the fire fed
Annadan, the daily aartis, the oil for the lamps and the upkeep of the temple are met entirely by what devotees give. Every contribution is voluntary.
How to give
At the temple office
Donations are made in person at the temple office, where a receipt is issued at the time of giving. Ask for one if it is not offered.
Online donation is not yet available
This website does not accept payments. When the organisation establishes an account for online contributions, the details will be published here — and nowhere else. Treat any other website or individual claiming to collect donations for this temple with caution.

Annadan
The shared meal is the temple's first call on its funds, before anything else. Hundreds are fed on Thursdays, festival days and other special occasions.
The dhuni and the lamps
Wood for the fire and oil for the lamps, every day, without a break.
The aartis
Flowers, garlands, and the materials of the four daily aartis.
Upkeep
Maintenance of the temple building, the precinct, and the facilities devotees use.
Tax exemption
Donations to the organisation are eligible for exemption under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act. The 80G certificate reference will be published on the organisation page once supplied.
