Our Vision
Sabarimla temple is not merely a place for worship but moreover a place where equality,
compassion, devotion and grace reign supreme. An Ayyappa darshan enhances the morale of devotees and take
them to a higher awareness of peace and tranquility which elevates us to a more meaningful and better life.
His blessings remove the worries from our minds and purifies it from within.
About Us
In order to fulfill our vision and in light of our virtual difficulties to visit Sabarimala, an Ayyappa
Seva Sangham has been created with the goal of getting an Idol of Lord Ayyappa installed at the Hindu
Temple
.
Ayyappa Idol at Kansas city Temple - a fulfilled dream
Today, Kansas City is the chosen place to live for a large number of Hindu families, many among them Sri Ayyappa devotees.
With the help of devotees and community we achieved the long cherished goal by installing Ayyappa Idol at
the temple on 13th January, 2008. We sincerely thank you to all people who helped and supported us to
accomplish this goal.
