Visiting A Hindu Temple In New Jersey
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- This Hindu temple is located in Robbinsville, NJ and is the second largest in the world. The marble is from Italy. It was sent to Inda to be hand carved then shipped to New Jersey to be assembled. It didn't even feel like we were in New Jersey. Very massive and beautiful. We would like to go back later in the year to see it at sunset. It was worth the trip out and it's free.
Enjoy and thanks for watching!
Important note: Since our visit a reserved time slot is now required to visit on weekends, national holidays and some festivals.

Hello all. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for commenting and subscribing. I had no idea this video would be so popular. I have been reading your comments and while I can't respond to all of them I do appreciate ALL the comments. Not only am I still blown away by the temple and the grounds, but I am equally blown away by all of you commenting with kind words and a lot of interesting information. All I can say is, "Wow." We look forward to going back later this year to see the temple and the grounds at sunset and then with lights. Once again thank you all!
Much Love, Jenn
Please try to visit indian restaurant, so that you can taste indian cuisine.

And plz mix all the curries before eating for better experience @@devadaspai9199
Love from Thailand 🇹🇭 🕉️ Proud to know that only truth is getting to know all over the World again 🕉️☝🙏
Jai Shri Ram Brother
We don't do the 'only truth' stuff
Don't say the *only truth* .
That reflects arrogance, Sanatan never teaches arrogance 😊
To the people saying only truth is wrong . I would like to say please read first the scriptures I know people of Indian origins don't have read the basic scriptures of Sanatan Dharma 🕉️ . During that age there was no concept of religion before and everyone was Hindu by culturally and it Santana Dharma is a lifestyle please educate yourself and it is the only truth others so called religions are man made so called ideologies created for personal gains. I would agian say that Sanatan Dharma philosophy is the ultimate and the only truth if you won to attain moksha and stop these repeating lifecycles 🕉️☝🙏

You will never find any Hindu or priest trying to convert anybody , there is no concept of conversion in Hinduism . You are free to visit any temple , and you will find peace in your heart . Temple is a perfect place for meditation.
Hinduism is about embrace ❣️ the God
No some temples don't allow other religion people because of invasions
@@user-yf4wh5ev9t those temples are in India
@user-yf4wh5ev9t cuz there were many incidents of people of other religions trying to destroy the temple
We should - the conversion religions are very aggressive, using money to convert the poor and in small villages, they start harassing the unconverted - they count who is attending church and who is not and start hating, discriminating against those who still remain Hindu
The western media knows this and keeps quiet
The Hindu media seems too afraid to speak up - and we are the MAJORITY!
I never knew this existed in NJ and I was looking for somewhere to take my mom for mothers day without spending a ton of money. So I reserved to visit this Saturday. I can't wait to check it out and my mom loves Hindu stuff.
I'm sure she'll love it. It's really beautiful.
How was you visit brother ??? Did your mother enjoyed it ???
Sean wherever you go , purchase Bhagwat Geeta from the book store and give it to your mother . She will read it in free time.
@@ShivamSharma-rr6tr She loved the surprise and couldn't believe something like that existed in NJ. We had an amazing time and loved learning about the history and culture the place had to offer. I felt all my negative feelings and emotions in life exit my body while I was standing in the temple and felt relaxed and at peace the entire time I was on the campus. Absolutely loved the experience. I brought home a T-Shirt with the quote in the joy of others lies our own. That really stood out to me while I was there.
@@SpencersVentures She really did we had a wonderful time. Was more beautiful than some of the cathedrals we visited in Italy.
As a Hindu its nice to see visitors like you appreciating the culture!!
You know what was I thinking? Did you see temples like Belur/Halebidu, Somanath, Somanathpura etc? The lady is saying with awe "this is impressive". IMO this exactly is what I S L A M I C invaders would have seen when they have attacked our temples. They've destroyed our culture. You have no idea how immensely sad it makes me.
These carvings were done in India and then transferred there. And India is full of similar artistic Temples and this one is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Hindu architecture✨✨✨✨✨✨
Gujju cult architecture 😂
@@YetkhaPakoAson Burnol
@@YetkhaPakoAsonso gujratis are not hindus?
@@YetkhaPakoAson It is nagara architecture man. It was followed in a lot of northern states. Not lot such ancient temples are left becuse the messengers of "peace" ravaged all the temples of the north. I am happy that whatever cult is building, they are reviving the lost glory of Nagara temples. Some 1000 years down the lane we may have old and grandiose and ancient nagara temples along with even older dravida temples
@@YetkhaPakoAson better than pislam cult
Jai shree Ram 🕉️🚩🇮🇳 love from india ❤
Love from India 🇮🇳❤️
In Hindu Temples, the outside are always more magnificient and splendor. It depicts the materialistic aspect of life we always keep entangled in it. As you start moving inside to the main deity area, things will start geeting more sober and gentler, depicting the spiritual aspect of life and signifies that in order to find true happiness, peace and joy, you need to move from materialism towards spiritualism.
Thanks USA respect from India and hindus ❤. Love you people you have given place for temple it's just mesmerizing.
It ain't the first one. It's the biggest one. US has given every religious the right to establish their faith centres.
@@emotionalIntelligence2078 That's great. And legal immigrants in return work for America while enriching the overall culture. Long live universalism. And it also entails fighting parochialism
Mam, don't worry about names. There are many biblical names which I can't pronounce. It's normal.
You got it right regarding name of golden statue," Neel-kanth". "Nth" is hard for non indian to pronounce
Thank you for the kind and gracious words!
This temple should be named temples made by enslaving Dalits who were given peanuts for their construction work.
This is the Nagara style of architecture which was prominent in medieval north India. There are not many nagara temples of such scale left in India, because Muslim occupation in the north ravaged almost all of them. I'm happy seeing Nagara temples getting revived. Recently a ram temple was also built in Ayodhya. The consciousness of destruction still lives in folklore and is recently mainstreamed which will lead to the construction of a lot many temples.
The other major style is the Dravida of South India. We still have 1000 of years old Dravida temples and they are breathtaking. In Dravida temples, the gopuram, or the outermost tower is mostly the tallest structure whereas in Nagara the main shikhar beneath which the main deity is , is the tallest.
Hope south Indians also build neo-Dravidian temples. North is building quite a few
Yes, vegetarian. But hindu vegetarianism excludes egg (allows dairy). The food is also free of onion and garlic for religious reasons.
Actually including Onion and garlic is individual choice.
I'm a vegetarian i eat onion and garlic and the people who don't usually eat these are a sect of Hinduism, now categorised as a different religion is called "Jainism".
@@iitnakanpur.. Vaishnava Hindus in Gujarat also avoid onions and garlic.
@@iitnakanpur.. During vrat for eg during two navratras or during other puja - we avoid garlic /onions which are considered 'tamsic'
@@manh9105 How is it related to my comment? I was talking about Vegetarianism in india not on some specific time period
Yes, Vaishnav sect of Hinduism promotes Vegetarianism, cleanliness and hygiene.
14:20 WOW, holy smokes! BEAUTIFUL! Absolutely spectacular! Unreal.😮😮😮😮
Lots of love from Nepal 🇳🇵🕉️
🙏Namaste 🙏
wonderful vlogging.....keep it up and be on the path of spirtuality to unlock the mystery of world....have a nice journey...jai shree krishna 🙏
Thank you for the kind and encouraging words!
Video like this is why RUclips was created. Family enjoying a day out.
Read Gita. It is fabulous.
Bro I am hindu. But please can't force anyone to do anything which you love. 🙏🏻
Bro that was a suggestion. How else do you suggest something? How is he forcing anything?
@@Immortal_lion99 my bad.🙏🏻 Jay shree krishna
@@RAJ_GADHAVI😂Hindu don't believe in force to anyone..but max you get advice from them..they never force you anything cause they believe in karma😊😊
@@rittickdas9634😂😂
This place is a heaven for artists, sculpture all over. When you are there, you have to look in all directions, something to see everywhere. When inside, don't forget to look at the ceilings, magnificently sculpted, and the floor has variuos patterns of inlaid marble.👍
Yes! I looked up so much my neck started hurting. Lol Floors were really cool. Just everything. So true that everywhere you look there's something to see. We plan on going back hopefully in the fall.
@@SpencersVentures Diwali day would be good to visit, call and ask them about it, there could be thousands of people on that day.
@Just_forfun9140 thank you the suggestion!
Made from slave labor of Dalits
Hindi architecture is simply otherworldly!
If I ever had to imagine what a civilization on another planet would build, I would prefer it to look exactly like this.
Love from cambodia ❤ love Hinduism
You should check out "Ellora Caves" in India.
That is the best architecture masterpiece of whole of a human civilization.
After spending a week in NJ struggling to find the food I love (South Indian/Gujarati Vegetarian) the Shanoya restaurant in this temple felt like heaven. I just couldn't stop myself from ordering 😂.
Beautiful place with beautiful people
LOOKS LIKE A MYTHICAL PALACE HOLY MOLY….EVEN THE BACKGROUND (the sky) ADDS SOO MUCH MORE TO THIS PIC.🤯🤩🤩🤩
Thank your for visiting. :)
Good people making good videos, good vibes. Viewers come, they see good things, they feel happy.
Americans are good people and open to other cultures 😊much love from India ❤to you and your lovely family
Hindu Architecture is ❤
The Abrahamic debated till recent times on whether women have souls, The Hindu religion considers feminine as divine and honors the fecund nature of feminine divine. There have been many women seers of Vedas & Upanishads
The treats badly need tea or coffee to compliment em. My suggestion, Darjeeling tea or Mysore Gold Coffee. Great excursion by the way. The intrinsic carvings,the gardens and mind blowing Indian architecture insanely spectacular. Akshardam in New Jersey, who could have imagine it! Wow indeed. ❤from Malaysia.
Love from India
It's like walking into ancient India,the amount of time taken to carve all of that,amazing.As an Indian I feel proud to see a beautiful temple so big in the US,even though I am Christian,I love Hinduism,the oldest religion in the world,grew up reading these wonderful mystical stories,of Gods and Godess Hanuman etc.Just wow.😍
each stone is handcrafted by us .. this is a testament of who we are..
Hope you loved our heritage.. that’s us there ..
Beautiful place. Safron by weight was more expensive than gold, gold prices gone up since several years. Safron flavor in puddings, shakes like drinks tastes good. Safron flowers are very light, slender, hand picked, very expensive.
Mahadev bless all happy and healthy
All Hindu Temples are architecture wonder it's showing how beautiful aciant Indian architecture
These temples, those sculptures are part of our ancient Indian subcontinent Culture..Modern day people call it "Hinduism".
You should visit kailash temple in India... It was build by cutting a giant rock Hill from upside down... How they removed 150 tonns of stones every day from carving is mystery...
Also visit padmanav swamy temple ... It has trillion dollar of gold... All the other temples have been looted either by muslim invaders or british... Yet somehow it survived....
Among very few things in the world which are unmatched and that's called hindu architecture.
Hinduism worship Nature ❤
Thanks for visiting and showing us around. I am from India. I wish I could visit this temple some day.
This masterpiece is truly captivating.
Marvelous
Thanks for showing us around. I love Hindu architecture so much. Such an ancient culture.
Beautiful carving 🤩🤩🤩
Jai Swaminarayan . Thank you so much ❤❤❤❤
Amazing... Cool wirk of ancient art look's peacefull... spiritual World tommrow..
Wow ❤
Thanks for showing us 🕉️❤️ Hari Om
This is the best video coverage so far on this temple 🙏
Thank you for visiting and not missing even an inch of detail, that's interesting, dont miss the eatery next time, plans in advance and visit during off time like on tuesday or on week days so that you can get slice of veggies.
You are blessed to visit it
Nice blog❤
Nice visit
I like the fact that you took the time, visited this place and gave your honest comments. Kudos to you and your family.
Beautiful temple 😍
I want to visit this place atleast once in my life
Beautifully done vlogging. I enjoyed all the commentary and little interactions among the family. Its a beautiful temple and gives a glimpse of Ancient Hindu architecture. Mesmerising. I have visited the Akshardham temple in Delhi, that too is one of a kind. Hope to visit this one someday. Thanks for sharing the vlog. God Bless.🙏
Great video. 👍🙏
Sooo Awesome. May God bless you 🙏.
Thank you so much to all of you for visiting the temple... DO visit again when the construction works get finished... Love from India ❤️😊
Thank you for sharing your beautiful family vlog of the magnificent Hindu Temple. The way you took us through this beautiful journey was heartwarming. Keep it coming 🙏🙏🙏
This is not just a picnic place to spend some good quality it's about knowing Hinduism, Sanatan,and knowing what the temple is about.🙏
Everyone should respect the place and people should go there for some spirituality not for picnic or party. As a Sanatani(Hindu) we would love to have everyone. Everyone has equal rights of spirituality and knowledge. We believe 'sarve bhawantu sukhina sarve santu niramaya'(Sanskrit verse) means let everyone be happy, let the world be happy, live and let live❤
Welcome to the temple❤
Thanks for showing us this beautiful monument ❤ from India
im very happy to see this we have great culture i really like and appreciate it

Jai shree Ram

Ganpati Papa MORYA!

Mam, big thank you for being so respectful. :) Beautiful place and beautiful people.
Swami Narayan temple!!
There are many ancient insane, unbelievable old temples in India. Unfortunately hardly any new one as epic like this.
If you watch 'Praveen Mohan' your mind will be blown away. Those ancient temples were not just places of worship. They were something else as well.
Love from texas ❤

Look at the walls on the front, the temple at the left and the ceiling at the top its too epic.
That God swaminarayan bless u
Heaven on earth
Jai Shree Ram ❤
Like for your many " Wows"
hi ! the golden stops on the map of his journey is also popular pilgrims places in India. most Hindus try to visit these places on their lives because these places have thousands of years of history and its historical temples. north, west,south,east.. he started from North and he settled at west in state called Gujarat Loj and spread his teachings to Gujrat and he also died there . His known as Bhagvaan Swaminarayan. and his others names are NilKanth, Sahajanaj Swami, Hari Krishna Maharaj, Akshar Purshotam . he told his two brothers sons to pass his teachings, build templs and make sadhus called saints . and after years some Saints separated from them and some of brances were created from his sadhus and this branch is called BAPs and founder was Sadhu (saint and first Guru) Sashtriji Maharaj - our guru who build first temple in Bochasan -Gujarat so this temple called Bochasan Akshar Purshotam Swaminarayan Sanstha in Short BAPS Akshar Dhaam temple. there are Also BAPS temple in London, Chicago, Texas, Los Angeles, Georgia , Toronto, these are carved temples and small temples are spread all over the world.
