We attended the Ashtami Puja with our family today. As per the agenda posted on the website, we completed our rituals by 8:30 p.m. and waited for the Prasad, which was scheduled to be served at the same time. However, despite everyone waiting, the Prasad was not served even by 9:30 p.m. On a weekday, with children already tired and having school the next day, we unfortunately had to leave without eating the Prasad. The kids were quite disappointed. We sincerely expect the temple management to respect people’s time and adhere to the schedule. A delay of 10 minutes may be understandable, but making devotees wait for more than an hour is inconsiderate.
Biggest Temple in Ireland. VHCCI celebrates all festivals here in Ireland. Good organizers and you get prasadam daily after Aarti
Nice place to relax and find inner peace
