Our Mission

A modest temple for a quiet Himalayan valley

Mandal Valley is situated in the spiritually significant Himalayan region beneath Tungnath. The objective of this initiative is to construct the Narmadeshwar Temple, a simple Shiva temple, that can serve local residents, devotees and visitors as a peaceful place for worship, prayer and meditation.

The temple is planned as a modest single-storey structure with a sanctum for the Shivling, a small internal circumambulation path, a prayer area and a simple traditional exterior. Materials will be sourced locally wherever possible, and the work will be carried out in stages as funds are received.

The estimated construction cost is approximately ₹6,00,000.

“Your contribution, whether small or large, can help turn this community-supported vision into reality.”

Why this temple matters

A peaceful place of worship

A quiet sanctum where residents, devotees and visitors can pray and sit in silence.

A spiritual space for local residents

The nearest temples are a long walk away for elderly villagers, especially in winter.

Preservation of local tradition

Built in a simple traditional Garhwali stone style, in keeping with the valley.

A community-supported initiative

Land, volunteer labour and local coordination are contributed by the village itself.
