Renovation Update
JULY 15, 2021
The renovation/ upgrade work at the new Durga Temple building at 1880 Saw Mill River Rd, White Plains have begun. All the City approvals are received, the construction contract is signed, and the work has begun. With the grace of God, full completion is expected in approximately 6 to 8 months. The present structure will be largely replaced with a new structure with new systems. There is a significant immediate need for funds to complete this work and we are confident that with the help of devotees and community members, we can achieve this goal.

“Extremely comforting”
An environment which is extremely comforting, a place of worship, where everyone is welcome. Provides a safe place to get to know the cultural aspect as well as the religious aspects of 🕉 Hinduism. If you are in luck, you will chance upon the aroma and get to sample of some fine vegetarian cooking provided by volunteers who are members of the temple. Free yoga classes held by a family that is well versed in the practices and benefits of this ancient Indian tradition. Gita class are given by highly qualified individual and I have been to several. Indepth discussion and knowledge is provided during these Gita classes which are held on Tuesdays.
