Blessed are those who are enabled in this life to contribute something for the well being of the community at large. It was given to great Saints and Sages of ancient India to have established temples which stand to proclaim the greatness of Hinduism and the miracles of its precepts. Millions of devotees over the millenum of years were able to seek the grace of the Gods reigning supreme in those temples and be blessed.

Ayyappa Sewa Sangham, Bhopal deserves to be congratulated for the self-less sacrifices it has been able to contribute in building a beautiful temple complex in our township at Bhopal and crate a divine atmosphere, installing the idols of Lord Ayyappa, Subramania, Ganesa, Durga and Nagaraja. It was an ambitious project, involving a huge expenditure, but completed so nicely, thanks to the untiring efforts of Shri MGK Menon, the Chief Patron and the President of the Sangham and the band of dedicated devotees of the township.

It was a most rewarding experience for me and my wife to have visited this hallowed temple complex some time back and we were deeply inspired and highly impressed with the divinity and tranquility prevailing there, I am told that the Sangham has been able to build a spacious Sabha Mandappan since then and it has some more work to be accomplished, for which a Souvenir is being taken out. I wish all success.
