Google A great experience with Sahasara lingam in this abode of the great Lord of lords Siva in Sunnyvale CA.5 stars
Google Good Hindu temple.5 stars
Google The energy here is fantastic and the Swamiji has a giant heart and huge devotion. His mantras and ceremonies are very powerful. :)5 stars
Google Divine ambience with chants of the Lord all around5 stars
Google Run by volunteers most of the time, Priest is only available in evenings only so you cannot do any archana or pooja or expect to receive any prasadam/ holy water. Temple is peaceful - hidden away near offices next to Nvidia2 stars
Yelp I am going to visit on Sunday Feb 11th ( Shiva Parvathi Kalyanam) and Feb 13th Shivaratri ..Last year I had great experience of Bhasmabishekam on Shivarati - They formed Abhishekan, through all over night5 stars
Yelp this is best temple i have ever seen in Bay Area. They perform every day abhishekam in very orthodox way - They are very spiritual and non commercial5 stars
Yelp This is really great place for devotion- Quite and very good place for spiritual.5 stars
