Love Everyone, Serve Everyone, Feed Everyone, Remember God

Maharaji had a reason for picking this sacred spot to house the Hanuman Murti.

Our temple grounds are blessed to have an Acequia (pronounced aseykeeya) Madre running with the land. Acequias are ancient irrigation waterways over 300 years in existence. They are a huge part of the rich heritage of New Mexico. The waterways and ditches are rare and considered a sacred part of the way of life here.

In fact they are so ingrained in the culture that participation in its maintenance, use and care is required to retain the rights of usage. These waters , revered and coveted in this high desert climate could certainly be considered our Mother Ganges, our holy water, to be respected and treated with utmost care. Acequias exist for the sole purpose of irrigation, not to be used for bathing, washing or drinking. We are indeed grateful and blessed to have these waterways to serve and irrigate Hanuman's Garden.

We are getting closer to our goal of obtaining a tractor so we can plow, till, seed and harvest the land. If you would like to contribute towards the purchase of a tractor so we have a greater ability to grow more food (used as prasad to feed all the people who visit our temple) kindly contact our offices and make a donation specifically to be used for this purpose. All donations are tax deductible.
