Durga Mandir — Attraction in South Brunswick

Very beautiful Indian Temple. All main Hindu God’s and Goddesses are present. The priests can perform puja and all havan puja services are available for a fee. Daily Aarti is about 6:30-7pm depending on the season and day (please check their website for exact timings and details).

Pavan Shastriji Panditji has been there from almost 14 years. I remember him as he came to perform our new house Havan and puja 14 years back. All Other new priests are also good they come and go.

I had one unpleasant experience though - I believe we go to a temple or any holy place of worship to connect with God and pray peacefully 🙏🏻. I remember a evening when I was standing on the side near the main Durga Mata and praying will all my heart. Then this mean heavy set lady like auntie was sitting down next to where I was standing. She was singing holy songs with loud voice on a loud speaker like mic - surprisingly she kept pulling bottom of my dress - like tugging it over and over and disturbing my prayer - I looked at her with astonishment - she pushed me with her hand saying move forward give space to other!? - I looked behind there was no one behind me! Give space to who?! and I’m here to pray lady - I drove over 1.5 hour to come here to pray peacefully and you cannot let connect with God for few seconds in peace? Then I found out she was called from India for singing bhajan’s holy songs and was a manner less, rude and impolite Desi lady. Temple administrators should educate these people to be polite and behave with manners as we come there to find peace and not insults.

I feel peaceful and happy so I try to go Durga temple few...

Durga Mandir in Princeton is such a peaceful and uplifting place to visit. The moment you step inside, you feel a sense of calm and positivity all around. The temple itself is beautifully maintained, with intricate architecture and a serene atmosphere that makes it really special. It’s not just a place for prayer, but also a space where you can slow down, reflect, and feel connected.

The temple grounds are spacious and clean, and they do a wonderful job of keeping everything organized. During festivals or special events, the energy here is incredible—lots of devotion, music, and community spirit, but still managed in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming. I’ve always noticed how welcoming everyone is, whether it’s the volunteers or the members, which makes the experience even better.

If you’re looking for a place that blends spiritual comfort with cultural richness, Durga Mandir is definitely worth a visit. It leaves you feeling peaceful...
