Mandir closed
Due to the corona virus escalation, especially in the Harrow area, we have regrettably taken the decision to close the mandir as of today 23rd March 2020, until further notice.
In the meantime please take care of yourselves and follow the strict government guidelines to stay indoors and keep social distancing of two metres, if you urgently need to go out. The mandir is also here to help those who are vulnerable at this time. Please reach out to us if you need any sort of help during these testing times.
If we take this scare positively, we now have plenty of time to take this opportunity to spiritually uplift and enrich our lives by way of swadhyay. Please take advantage of the various material available on the websites below.
Keep safe!
