Story of Iraivan Temple Through 2023

Over the years we have released short videos chronicling the all-stone Iraivan Temple’s origins and progress. A longer documentary was created quite some time ago by a well-wisher. Forty-eight years have passed since the late Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami’s initial vision of God Siva to begin the process, and 33 years since the first granite stone block was chiseled in Bengaluru, India.

After the soft-opening consecration in March of this year to begin daily pujas in Iraivan Temple, we commissioned videographers to create an updated documentary film of the whole project through that point. Having completed months of coordination and editing of photo, video, and audio resources, we are pleased to release the documentary now.
