Ambaji USA - Shree Shakti Mandir — Attraction in Lake City

I wish I could give them no stars!!!. I have been going to ambaji temple since 2003, I work a few miles away, so it's very convenient for me since they have a cafeteria style Prasad serving every day from 12 noon to 7 pm in the evening, Rather than spending my money on lunch in a restaurant I prefer to go to the temple put 13 to 15 dollars of my lunch money as donation about 3 to 4 times a week, been doing this since about 2003 if I can remember about $30 grand or so, a rough estimate which I have dropped in there, makes me feel as I am doing my part as a human being by donating for a good cause. Over the years I have donated rice, vegetables etc, countless times. When I am working, I go there at all times of day depending on my sech. Few weeks back it was early evening went to the temple, thought I would pray for a few min then go have prasad as my usual routine. Cafeteria was empty as usual , there were s few people sitting there with the, who I believe was the kitchen manager, skinny guy see him there all the time. Lady was sitting a few seats in front of me , she finished eating picked up a small water cup that they had , went up to the buffet counter and took the ladle and poured some black eyed beans in the water cup. To my surprise the cafeteria manager walks up to her and started screaming at her telling her that she was stealing food and that he had seen her take food before a number of times , embarrassing her trying to show off in front of his friends or family. The poor woman was in tears , while i was sitting there and watching him degrade her in front of everybody. I wanted to get up and punch his face in , what gives him the right to say anything to anybody about taking some Prasad , I thought prasad was for everybody and to share. It was around 6.30 pm and they would have through out the food anyway. More over it was not coming out of his pocket. What was he trying to prove. I hope all you devotees will think twice before you support these guys. Please stop giving them any donations as they do not deserve to be supported by us any more. They should be ashamed of themself having such uneducated people working for them . I have stopped going there and will never be back, what a disgrace to society these guys are, makes you wonder what they are doing with your hard earned money. Shame on these guys, more over I have seen this guy packing food for his people a number of times. Like he owned the kitchen. I guess these guys forget today were they are is because of all the devotees and the donations provided by people like us and the lady who was humiliated by this temple. I am going to do everything in my power to tell people not to support temple. I think they need to fire this guy and put an apology to this young woman in...

Very bad experience. The staff was very rude and disrespectful to us and our guests. We hosted an event in one of their halls. The temple manager came and was very rude to our guests and asked them in front of everyone to leave . If he had any concerns, He should have been man enough to first talk to the host. I Can’t understand if you behave like this being in the temple. What kind of example are you setting for others ? We have visited the temple before but didn’t have such bad experience. This gives very bad name to the organization. Hope they...
