  • I just went to the Hindu temple (I live in Snellville) and I thought it was absolutely jaw-dropping. Im Peruvian(hispanic) and Guyanese(indian) and was brought up christian but never believed in christianity. NOW, I can restart my life and become Hindu- I've been going there for the past 6 days in a row. I feel accepted, enlighted, and at peace when Im there. Its what Ive wanted all along.

  • Very beautiful peaceful place - I am a neighbor who was raised Christian. I appreciate the Hindu faith.

  • 10 years ago, I had the rare privilege to dance in the Atlanta Hindu Temple in Riverdale. The temple was more on the lines of a South Indian gopuram. Undoubtedly, there were more South Indians who worshipped there. This temple's architecture is more Northern Indian. It looks like it`s Gujaratis who worship in this temple. I think it's great - that there's finally more than one Hindu temple in Ga., proof of the growing Indian diaspora

  • to madmax797, the sculptors and craftsmn who made this were also poor people. By giving them work the rich have passed on the wealth to those poor in exchange for work.

  • hahaha...

  • Exactly, I was just driving along on your typical street with gas stations and fast foods and what not, then see a giant temple that looked like somebody just tore it out straight from India and plopped it there. crazy

  • iam hindu too.. but waste so much money on temple? how about helping poor indians in india?

  • I think drivers not expecting to see something like that had several accidents over there .

  • That is soooo awesome...what a beautiful temple.
