01 — The story
The story
Known as the Om Temple, this Shiva shrine stands by the Daman Ganga River in Kudacha village. Its ground plan traces the Om symbol and covers some 40,000 square feet. Around 400 pillars support the building, which uses no steel, following the customs of Mahadev temples, and the premises house 126 deities.
Work began on 21 April 2004 under the Shree Nikhil Trimurti Pranav Charitable Trust. Followers hold that Pujya Gurudev saw the temple in a dream and modelled it on Siddhashram, a holy ashram said to lie north of Kailash and Mansarovar. It was meant as a centre for studies such as mantra, tantra, yantra, astrology, Ayurveda and Rasayan Shastra.
