The mandir sits on huge landspace.
Veda Vyasji was one of the greatest saints of Sanatan Dharma. This great spiritual personality simplified and combined our hundreds of scriptural texts and made it easier for us lesser mortals to understand our real purpose on earth.
One of the great teachings of this great saint and of Sanatan Dharma is that the goal of life is happiness and the purpose of life is to gain moksha or liberation. As human beings, two important questions we ask are: "How do we find this elusive happiness?" and "How do we gain moksha?"

The answers are as simple as they are complicated; starting with trying to live a life that is detached from worldly things, entertain little or no desires and thoughts. This philosophy is easier said than done. But, read the Bhagavad Gita, become a student of this Celestial Song of the Divine and it will help you reach your goal in life, one step at a time.
One way to start this beautiful spiritual journey is to help in the building of a huge mandir that will become a massive spiritual goldmine for people all over the world and for generations to come.
The Sanatan Mandir of Florida, located in Orlando, is currently under construction, but if you visit this place, already it feels like a "teerth" or like taking a holy pilgrimage; not only can you feel the "shakti" or spiritual vibrations that is emanating from this holy place, but the sheer magnitude of this mandir will take your breath away.
The Sanatan Mandir of Florida is located at 3473 Boggy Creek Road, Kissimmee, Florida 34744. Visit it if you're in Orlando, Florida and take the dharshan from this holy land.
When completed, the Sanatan Mandir of Florida will be a one-of-a-kind mandir. The 18,000 square-feet mandir sits on spacious land mass of 5.5 acres of land. It will be designed with 4 tall domes of 16-feet and 8 shorter domes of 8-feet. The mandir will have a walk away all the way around the mandir with about four entrances.
Pandit Baljit Ramnarain who is spearheading this gigantic project is doing an extremely, extremely great job. Pandit Baljit, who is the father of Pandit Yoga Ramnarain fo New York, should be relaxing now instead of taking on such a huge venture head-one. His indomitable spirit, resilience, courage, devotion, humility and love for his dharma is unshakeable and contagious at the same time. It is reminiscense of our brave ancestors who were brought from India to toil and sweat in the sugar plantations of the colonial masters over 171 years ago.
PanditJi is leading this great cause for the benefit of the community in Florida and around the globe.
Pandit Baljit celebrated his birthday on Sat. 13th Nov. His "dharam patni" and 94-years-old mother sat with him for Puja.
Sanatan Mandir of Florida has such great potential that not only will it transform lives into higher spiritual beings but it will become the spiritual reservoir of our time that people from all walks of life will journey there to absorb the pure divinity emanating from this holy place within the core of their beings.
The majestic walls of the mandir..
The construction for this mandir is a bit slow, because funding has been slow in the coming. But, we Hindus can change this situation. There is a number of ways you can help to complete this mandir: you can make a monetary donation; you can loan the mandir some of your money ( with interest or without interest) for a number of years and the mandir will repay you back and you can sponsor the building of sections of the mandir, like the Shiva Mandir or the Devi Durga Mandir, the roof, the doors, windows, etc. If you desire to make a significant donation, and would like to have a plaque of your family name installed, that can be done.
Let's do the right thing and start living for the purpose we were put on earth and that is, to gain moksha and not be too attached to worldly possessions. Let's help to create a place of holy pilgrimage right in our backyard where we could go spend time to learn to become one with God.
