Amazing! I have volunteered with Ghanshyam and Pooja at the local mandir here in Bartlett and they are amazing people!! Their dedication and selflessness to serve is admirable! BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham will serve as a testament to their story and the stories of thousands of others who selflessly serve!
Thanku, Aap Bahut bhagyasali hai Bhai
Proudly say we are Hindu 🇮🇳🇮🇳🕉️🕉️
The biggest Hindu temple in the world is not even in India or Nepal! Rather, it is Angkor Wat in Cambodia! It's been that way for nearly 1000 years, and I hope it stays that way.
It's not functional they are talking about functional ones
The headline says largest temple in *North America* not the world.
Angkor Wat is a world heritage site nothing can happen to it.

He meant that he hoped Angkor Vat is never surpassed
That was india once upon a time..... Uless brifish didnt poke their nose n messed up
HINDUISM ONLY HOPE FOR BETTER WORLD...!
Sanatan Hindu Dharma Advaita Vendanta is Global concept 🕉️♥️
Two of my all time favorite people who've spent pretty much their whole lives giving back to the community!
Very beautiful hindu temple
Temples are fine but the essence of Hinduism which is the Upanishadic philosophy of non duality is in the core of Hinduism. Studying and teaching Upanishads is also very important in these temples.
Non duality is just one philosophy in Vedanta
Why Hindu people always comes with this BS and also this self loathing behavior. Specially people who think some kind of know all of indian philosophy. Also hinduism is lot more than non duality so you might want to check it out and last thing I would say also try to understand how many temples Adi Shankrachaya has constructed.
Yes... but that's the philosophy that keeps us rational, democratic, secular and non-conflicting. @@tilakpatel540
Non-duality is being discovered all over again in Quantum Physics and the re-emergence of belief systems suppressed by colonization. Vedanta continues to have much to offer to human evolution.

"Mandir" is not a term meaning Hindu Temple. It's the word in Hindi language meaning temple - it can be a Jain temple, Buddhist temple etc. There's no one word for Hindu temples
First of all, it's Sanskrit word and not Hindi and It's because these religions are derived from Hinduism and so they inherited the word Mandir. Manas+Deer= A place where your thoughts, mind, inner you gets comfort and pleased.
मन्दिरं गत्वा मनुष्यस्य मनः शान्तिं प्राप्नोति, तस्य क्लेशाः अपि न्यूनीभवन्ति ।
@@heathens2867 wrong. Mandir is NOT Sanskrit. The Sanskrit word you're probably thinking is Mandira which simply means "residence". I can't post links here but any decent Sanskrit dictionary will tell you that. Many Indian languages have absorbed the word and over time developed their own nuance. In Malayalam for example, Mandiram means a house (either residential for another dedicated purpose) and a temple is Kshetram. Hindi (and certain other languages in its vicinity) clipped the -a suffix and started using it as a temple. The Hindu people are a far diverse for anyone to claim that X is the word for a Hindu temple.
@arjun024utube the word Mandira is of Sanskrit origin, Hindi and other languages drop the short -a and pronounce it Mandir. It originally meant a house of an enclosed area, but eventually took on the meaning of the temple. Etymologically the words Mandira/Mandir are related and the Devanagari spelling is the same.
Jai shree Ram Jai shree ram

@@sr2291 leave people alone. It makes you look immature
@@05HeritageSoftailtrue. They look foolish
What about the FBI case on bonded labourers in this temple?
fake, contrived cases by people from different religions who wanted to tarnish , sully the grand occasion. The artisans who worked on the construction are proud Hindu who are proud of their contributions
Apparently the courts found evidence of false testimony and many of the allegations were retracted by the labourers. Some labourers claimed they were in fact coerced into signing false statements against the temple.
All are settle with money man.
For what? People are dying, going through homelessness , struggling to get food and these people spent millions on this. And they plan on making one here in Illinois too Smfh.
Tell that to the Billionaires and Hugh Christian Mega Churches.
That sounds fair at first... but think a bit deeper, there are plenty of hospitals, homeless shelters, and schools that can treat and educate the body BUT it is spiritual havens like this that will enrich, enlighten, and inspire the minds and souls of countless people to lead and live better lives.
Hindu temples serve free food! Go and visit a temple once! On the other hand, Churches and pastors loot people's money in the name of donations and live a luxury life!
Just dig a little dipper ! There are chains of hospitals , schools sponsored by these temples ! They feed thousands of people daily !
Says a guy living in mental crisis
Useless structure
do you call churches or mosques useless as well??
@@Astrashastra absolutely they are absolutely useless structures they don't ask people at night even though homeless people get bit by mosquitoes and they freeze to death yeah absolutely those structures are completely useless you know religion is just in place to make money here for the same reason everything else is cuz someone wants to have more stuff than others and you write a book you say it's from God and then everyone believes it may buy a copy
It’s not useless unlike your existence 😜
@@t.4999 I've donated enough blood to help save the lives of 9,000 people are pretty sure my existence serves a purpose but we do need homeless shelters not more religious structures that it can even be legally use for housing
@@beavis_loves_you The temple sponsors hospitals and educational facilities. Also they give free food to the poor. I don't see your point?
Joe Biden would say in all seriousness - "I didn't know there were that many 7-11's there....."
