DFW Hindu Temple — Attraction in Irving

Review from a Parent visiting this temple since year 2021:

Overall temple is okay. Priests are nice, good pooja environment and fun cultural activity. However, since this has been one of the oldest temple architecture in DFW and therefore some parts of the building requires update like falling roof ceilings and intermittent Air Condition. Its mundane to find AC not working during hot weather or find the unit to function appropriately for the days when low temperature are not required. Mandir has a library which is surprisingly one of the good part (not the best). Books in library have mostly been donated by friends and family members, but the management takes least interest to update the section with new ones. I believe if the temple has a library they should function 10% like how a library works.

Vidya Vikas has decent programs like teaching elementary kids religion, Indian Classical dance and Regional languages like - Hindi, Bengali, Gujarat, Tamil and Telegu. Volunteer teachers and books are good. However the Staff of Vidya Vikas is arrogant. They have highly poor crowd management and are not ready to take advice if a parent has to provide one (so writing this review after 3 weeks of consultation/discussion with the Head of Vidya Vikas Co-ordinator).

The premise is not adequate enough to handle a crowd in case of a fire/accident. As a concerned parent and a citizen of USA, I have written several emails and approached right point of contacts to help how to control the crowd but went on to deaf ears of the management. Each time I am left with a feeling as if I am demanding something for personal gain. The staff fails to understand that this is a crucial mitigatory step towards insane things going around in DFW and provide a sense of security and safety to the families visiting the temple. Times have changed and its not the same like it was during pre-pandemic days.

Easy way is to appoint a Sheriff/DFW Police Constable on site duty on Sundays and during major Hindu festivals. This is a common practice in DFW Churches, Mosques and Hanuman Temple...

I recently visited the DFW Indu Temple in Irving, and it was a truly uplifting experience.

These events not only provide a deeper understanding of Hindu traditions but also foster a strong sense of community among attendees. The temple also offers various classes and activities for all age groups, making it a vibrant hub of cultural learning and spiritual growth. Overall, my visit to the DFW Indu Temple was a deeply enriching experience.
