Where: Pine Acres Community Center, 402 Mc Lean St, Fuquay-Varina, NC 27526.

Admission: Free

Program: 

• Bhajans or Chanting
• Shiv Puja & Rudrabhishekam, guided by Pt. Shridhar Raja
• Birthday Blessings
• Temple Updates
• Aarti & Mahaprasad

Blessed Shivalingam

This Rudrabhishekam is an excellent opportunity to worship the Crystal Shivalangam that Shridharji recently acquired during the Maha Kumbha Mela 2025. Everyone will offer one cup of milk as Abhishek to the Lord. If you want to learn about the Rudrabhishek mantra, read our blog and print the mantras so that you can read along when Shridhar ji chants them. The blog also contains PDF files of mantras in all major Indian scripts. 

Be the Yajaman (Host) of the Puja

We have eight host spots, which will be allocated on a first-come basis to individuals donating $51 or more. The Host family will be able to participate actively in the rituals, and the temple will provide puja supplies.
