Dear Devotees,
Flower Mound is a small suburb of about 62000 people, located
about 20 miles north of Dallas. It is a fairly new area where a
handful of Indians are moving into after buying residential
houses. The nearest Hindu temple is about 20 miles away in
Irving, TX. There are about 500 Hindu families living in the
flower mound greater area including Lewisville and Denton. A
need for a temple close by has always been in the minds of
people in social gatherings like Holi and Diwali.
A small group of Indian families got together discussing the
Idea of a Hindu temple closer to home during April 2009, and we
are happy to inform you that the “vision” is now a “reality”.
With continued support from our community, we moved forward
with the plans to start the temple in August 2009 at 3325 Long
Prairie Road, Flower Mound, TX 75022 (Besides Tarakari Indian
Grocery). Phase-1 deities included Lord Ganesh and Durga Ma.
Phase-2 included Lord Siva Linga & Nandi and Lord Balaji. Shiridi Sai
Baba deity Prana Pratishta was performed on 8/22/2010. During Phase 4, Lord Kartikeya, Nava Graha
and Hanuman Ji are
planned.
Flower Mound Hindu temple also offers religious classes and
Language (Hindi & Telugu) classes at Temple premises.
